Captain Jimmy Amolay looked across the river at the charred wreckage of a backhoe sitting in shallow, muddy water. Islamist militants blew up the tractor even though it was being used to dredge the river to build a road and prevent flooding, which could only benefit the local community.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Confoundingly, the villagers were protecting the culprits in their midst.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Amolay\u2019s Philippine Army unit hadn\u2019t been able to capture a single member of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) since arriving on 5 February to guard the dredging project in Datu Salibo, an impoverished municipality in Maguindanao Province.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s one village where I\u2019d say 95 percent of the men are BIFF,\u201d said Amolay. \u201cIn the daytime they\u2019re in plain clothes, but at night they turn into BIFF.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ease with which fighters can slip back into society not only underlines the huge challenge the security forces are confronting; it also highlights the potential for a dangerous Islamist escalation should a peace deal to end the 40-year-old conflict be allowed to unravel.<\/p>\n

The BIFF is made up of about 400 members who split from the 11,000-strong Moro Islamic Liberation Front. The MILF fought a decades-long war for independence for Muslims, who are the majority population in the southern island of Mindanao but otherwise a tiny and marginalised minority in this intensely Catholic country.<\/p>\n

In 2014, the MILF signed an agreement to instead create an autonomous region to be known as Bangsamoro. But the last Congress failed to pass legislation to allow that to happen.<\/p>\n

On 7 May, the Philippines will elect a new president, House of Representatives, and Senate. It will be up to the next government to enact the Bangsamoro Basic Law. If the new law isn\u2019t approved, the peace process will be in peril. Further delays will likely weaken the authority of the MILF leadership, and more frustrated fighters could join ranks of extremist groups opposing the deal.<\/p>\n

The global war-torn village<\/h4>\n

The previous war was fought by local players over grievances particular to Mindanao, but if the peace deal falls apart and the island slips back into conflict, the next phase may look radically different. The BIFF and other armed groups have pledged allegiance to the so-called Islamic State, which has announced its intention to push into Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe consider them brothers, but we are not part of them,\u201d Abu Misry Mama, a BIFF spokesman, told IRIN by phone.<\/p>\n

Security experts say it\u2019s unlikely that groups in Mindanao are receiving any formal support, but its clear they are drawing inspiration from IS. Some have used IS flags and released videos echoing IS rhetoric. In late March, at its base in Cotabato City, the military displayed items it said it recovered after battles with the BIFF in Datu Salibo, including bomb-making materials, IS propaganda, and instruction manuals on how to construct improvised explosive devices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The relationships between groups in Mindanao and Islamist militants overseas may be largely symbolic for the time being, but that\u2019s enough to unnerve negotiators on both sides of the table.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very important that we finish what is inherently a domestic issue so that we don\u2019t get enmeshed in these international dynamics,\u201d said Miriam Coronel-Ferrer, the government\u2019s lead negotiator.<\/p>\n

Her opposite number from the MILF, Mohagher Iqbal, said Congress\u2019 failure to pass the law providing the foundation for peace had already thwarted its efforts to convince the BIFF to stop its attacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrustrations are toxic,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen people are hopeless they can choose so many radical activities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thousands displaced<\/h4>\n

The latest radical activities BIFF has chosen include demanding money from the local government to allow it to continue dredging a stretch of river that often floods and destroys crops. The project aims to link the main community of Datu Salibo, strung along a narrow strip of asphalt, to nearby villages that have no existing road access.<\/p>\n

When officials refused to pay, the group began blowing up heavy equipment and planting explosives near the dredging site. That\u2019s when the government sent the military in.<\/p>\n

The BIFF spokesman, Mama, denied that his group had attempted to extort funds, but his explanation for attacking the project made little sense. He repeatedly said the government had neglected to guarantee that the community would have \u201croad right of way\u201d, even though soil scooped from the riverbed is being used to build a road for villagers to use.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soldiers are now camped next to tanks and armoured vehicles along the river, and they\u2019ve been fighting off attacks since they arrived. Civilians are paying the price. The government said almost 14,000 people remained displaced in Datu Salibo alone, and thousands more across five neighbouring municipalities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were having breakfast and a mortar hit the village. We all dropped to the floor,\u201d said Taya Quezon as she chopped vegetables next to a tiny makeshift shelter about a kilometre away from her home, where she and her eight children sleep.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe waited for a break in the gunfight, then we moved.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Even though they support the dredging project, and there\u2019s no argument that the violence began after BIFF attacked it, Quezon and other locals said they blamed the army.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe military started the conflict here,\u201d said Tata Edjil, a 64-year-old village elder wearing wraparound sunglasses and a white skull cap.<\/p>\n

It was unclear if those displaced by the fighting felt they could speak freely, since BIFF members might be their neighbours or even their relatives. Their distrust is also based on generations of government marginalisation and military abuse.<\/p>\n

Military reforms<\/h4>\n

The military says it\u2019s changed its ways.<\/p>\n

When asked where the BIFF fighters were hiding out, Amolay swept his arm in a 180-degree arc across cornfields to villages nestled in stands of palm trees hundreds of meters away.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t search the houses, because it\u2019s illegal,\u201d the army captain said, sweat dripping down his face in the blistering mid-day heat.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a relatively new attitude, and it marks a shift in the Philippine Armed Forces\u2019 approach to counterinsurgency. No more kicking down doors, abducting civilians and the like. The new order of the day is winning hearts and minds by providing security and development.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe realised that what we were doing wasn\u2019t working, so we had to change,\u201d said Captain Joann Petinglay, the military\u2019s regional spokeswoman. \u201cBecause if we keep doing operations and then there is collateral damage, we will just breed a new set of rebels.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s how it works on paper anyway. And while allegations of abuses by soldiers remain common in other areas, both the military and the MILF seem to be treading carefully to avoid a fight. When conflict broke out in Datu Salibo, the MILF quickly agreed to move 1,800 of its troops out of the area to its main headquarters, about three hours away near Cotabato City.<\/p>\n

Peace process in peril<\/h4>\n

Security was lax at the MILF camp, where vehicles were easily waved through checkpoints: an indication of how little fear the group has of coming under attack. A youth centre recently constructed with funds from the Japan International Cooperation Agency was only one demonstration of support for the peace process from the international community. The place resembled a bucolic village more than a rebel encampment.<\/p>\n

Time will tell if the foundation of the peace deal is strong enough to withstand the slow grind of Philippine politics. But time may also be running out.<\/p>\n

A recent report by the UN\u2019s emergency aid coordination body, OCHA, noted that 148,000 people were displaced by military action against the BIFF last year. The cycle continued into 2016. As of the end of March, more than 30,000 remained displaced in Datu Salibo and nearby municipalities, and they were not receiving adequate assistance.<\/p>\n

The report warned that the lack of support for displaced people, combined with disillusionment due to setbacks in the peace process, may \u201cradicalise\u201d youth. \u201cThe BIFF may be gaining support from these communities as they become more vulnerable with fewer options,\u201d said OCHA.<\/p>\n

The BIFF is just one of a growing number of militant groups in Mindanao, which are taking cues from IS and other Islamist extremists around the world. The longer the peace is delayed, the more time they have to recruit members and coordinate with one another.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, IS has been encouraging its ideological allies in Mindanao. A Saudi Arabian anti-IS cleric was shot and wounded following a lecture in Zamboanga City after IS called for his assassination in the February edition of its magazine, Daqib<\/em>. In April, IS used its al-Naba<\/em> newspaper to claim that almost 100 Philippine soldiers had been killed since October and 68 aircraft destroyed, according to SITE, an organisation that monitors militant groups.<\/p>\n

For the time being, the connections between IS and Mindanao militants appear to be mostly rhetorical, but that may change unless the next government of the Philippines gets the peace process back on track. If it doesn\u2019t, it will face the terrifying possibility that the conflict playing out right now in a cornfield in a remote corner of Mindanao could have global implications.<\/p>\n
