Howard Zinn (2007): “In 1906, an American military detachment attacked a village of Filipino Muslims (“Moros”) living in the hollow of a mountain on one of the southern islands. Every one of 600 men, women, and children were killed. This was the Moro Massacre, which drew an angry response from Mark Twain and other anti-imperialist Americans” (p. 103).
