Political Analyst and Professor of Political Science at De La Salle University Antonio Contreras said that just because Marcos was buried in the Heroes’ Cemetery, doesn’t mean that he was a hero.
“Kelan ba matatapos ang katangahang ito?” he wrote.
He said the Heroes’ Cemetery is just the name of the place.
“Ang Libingan ng mga Bayani (LNMB) ay pangalan lamang ng isang lugar. Hindi porke may bayani sa pangalan doon ay bayani na lahat ang nakalibing. At sa kasaysayan, hindi ang LNMB ang planosanang gawing himlayan ng mga bayani. Hindi po iyon natuloy.” he wrote.
He also said that gbeing given military honors doesn’t make anyone a hero.
“At hindi po dahil ikaw ay binigyan ng military honors ay bayani ka na. Lahat po ng sundalo na namamatay ay binibigyan ng military honors. Sundalo po si Marcos. Hindi bayani. At hindi porke sundalo ka bayani ka na.” he wrote.
