Ilaga
The Ilaga (Visayan: ''rat'') is a Christian, Catholic extremist, pro-government paramilitary group in the southern Philippines predominantly composed of Visayan groups (mostly Ilonggos) embracing a form of Philippine Folk Catholicism that utilizes amulets and violence and was operated, led and largely used by the Philippine Constabulary as a militia force during the 1970s in Southern Mindanao while battling against the Bangsa Moro Rebellion during the Moro insurgency in the Philippines.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Anti-Moro group resurfaces in NCotabato )〕
Increased tensions in the Philippines since 2008 have since seen the reemergence of the armed vigilante group〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New Ilaga revives fears of Mindanao in 70s - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos )〕 calling themselves the Bag-ong Ilaga (Visayan: ''New Ilaga'').〔(“2 New Vigilante Groups Surface in Mindanao” ) by Cheryll D.

==Background==
Mindanao, the home of the Moro Muslims, is rich in natural resources and minerals. The American colonial government and subsequently the Philippine government followed a policy of demographic swamping by settling massive amounts of Filipino Christian settlers from the Visayan islands and Luzon onto Moro Muslim lands in Mindanao. The policy resulted in a massive wave of Filipino Christians settling on Mindanao where the population of Filipino Christian settlers now outnumbers the native Moro Muslims by the millions. This was an additional factor in aggravating conflicts between the native Moro Muslims and Filipino Christian settlers as disputes over land increased. Another complaint of the Moros is the extraction of Mindanao's natural resources and wealth by the central government while the Moro population live in mass poverty.
The Philippine government encouraged predominantly Visayan Filipino Christian settlers in Mindanao to form the militias called Ilaga to fight the Moros. These Ilaga settlers often seized the land of the native Moro and Lumad peoples on Mindanao in addition to committing atrocities.
