“Sa mga nagsasabi na si Duterte ay inabuso… Paano siya inabuso? 30,000 nga ang pinatay niya. Siya ang nang-abuso sa bayan.”

Fr. Flavie Villanueva of Project Paghilom hailed Duterte’s arrest as a victory for justice, emphasizing that it proves no one is above the law. Addressing claims that Duterte’s rights were violated, Villanueva countered that the former president, responsible for thousands of extrajudicial killings, was the real abuser—not the victim.

This is Tsutomu Yamaguchi, the man who survived the dropping of two atomic bombs. Tsutomu was a 29-year-old engineer at Mitsubishi who was working as a draftsman, designing oil tankers.

August 6, 1945, was supposed to be his last day in Hiroshima before going back home to his wife and infant son. At 8:15 AM, an American B-29 bomber flew over the city and dropped the first atomic bomb. Tsutomu was less than two miles away from ground zero. The blast ruptured his eardrums and burned his upper torso.

"I didn't know what had happened. I think I fainted for a while. When I opened my eyes, everything was dark, and I couldn't see much. It was like the start of a film at the cinema before the picture has begun when the blank frames are just flashing up without any sound," he told The Times, a British newspaper. The city was leveled, and 80,000 people were dead.

After spending the night in a bomb shelter, Tsutomu continued his travel back home to Nagasaki, despite his injuries. On the morning of August 9, he returned to work. When Tsutomu told his boss about what happened, he was labeled as "crazy" for thinking a single bomb could destroy an entire city. As his boss was grilling him, "...the same white light filled the room. "I thought the mushroom cloud had followed me from Hiroshima," he said. 40,000 people were killed instantly. Six days later, Japan surrendered.

Tsutomu and his family survived the second atomic bomb; however, they suffered from chronic health problems. Tsutomu's daughter described how her mother had been "soaked in black rain and was poisoned," and she believed that she passed the poison on to them, revealing that her brother had died of cancer at age 59 and how her sister has been chronically ill since birth.

Tsutomu remained healthy. Later in life, he spoke out against the use of atomic weapons and called for its abolishment. Despite his experience during the war, he always tried to keep a positive outlook on his life, saying, "I could have died on either of those days. Everything that follows is a bonus." He died at the age of 93 in 2010.

The EDSA People Power Revolution did not gain support overnight. It stemmed from a minority of people who courageously stood up to a dictator’s rule that saw thousands of human rights violations and billions of dollars plundered. #EDSA37

To my then 11-year-old mind, the assassination of Ninoy Aquino on Aug. 21, 1983 was the birth of its political awakening.

Let us not forget.

We will not forget.
