Whoever fired grenades at the Makati offices of two of the so-called Big Three oil companies the other day should be made to crawl from Manila to the Bondoc peninsula where a communist rebel faction is based. There the culprits can be compelled, as pu-nishment for their mischief, to listen to a daylong propaganda lecture by rebel commander Gregorio Rosal.
