During the Japanese invasion of Mindanao, the Moros used the Juramentado (suicide attack, Parrang Sabil) against both Japanese and American troops. They were engaged in a rebellion against the Americans right up to 1941 when Japan invaded, they then fought Japan and the Americans and after the Philippines became independent in 1946, the Moros revolted against the Filipinos.
The Japanese were frustrated by the Moro suicide attackers (who flew into a state where thry would stab as many enemies as possible), and they responded by slaughtering the entire community from where the Juramentados came from.

Many Japanese and American soldiers were killed by Moro warriors who stabbed them (Moro warriors would wield the Keris, a weapon native to southeast asia).

During the Commonwealth Period (193546), some Moro leaders participated in the 1935 National Assembly Election. ... But only two Muslim leaders won their seats, prompting the Muslim groups to continue their fight for independence. But it was only the outbreak of the Pacific War in 1941 'that more or less blunted the Moro independence movement', which resulted in the Japanese invasion of the Philippines.26 During the Japanese occupation, Moros joined anti-Japanese resistance groups. It has been argued that six months before US forces led by General Douglas MacArthur landed in Leyte to retake the Philippines, 'the Muslim territories in Mindanao were already free of the Japanese'.

Just as they were feared by the Spanish, they were now hated by the Filipinos. There was such animosity between the Moros and the Filipinos that small villages were divided into two separate entities Moro and Christian. They were, at the same time, actually at war with the Japanese and Filipinos and barely tolerated the Americans.
Many Japanese and American soldiers were killed by Moro warriors who stabbed them (Moro warriors would wield the Keris, a weapon native to southeast asia).

Until the middle of the 19th century, however, the holy war was a group obligation. It was organized and led with a good bit of the internal strife which has always been a part of Tausug politics by the sultan and other officials of the Tausug....
A second form of parrang sabbil is said to have occurred every time a Tausug was killed in a battle with a non-Muslim. All Tausug thus killed by the Spaniards, Americans or Filipinos were automatically sabbil. The parrang sabbil occurrences reached its climax in the period of cotta warfare with the Americans. A large number of Tausug would fortify themselves...
Fiction and Fact Following are some points of interest on the juramentado : Myth: The juramentado was exclusively anti-Christian.
It was born in the 19th century, when Muslim power in the southern seas was almost as great as that of Spain. The fiction part of the juramentado myth say that the Muslims were treacherous and untrustworthy in their dealing with the Christians, that they were likely to run amuck at a moment's notice, killing men, women and children, and that they were fanatics who would do anything for the glory of their God.
Fact: The juramentado 's act was never done against members of ethnic groups not considered military enemies of the Tausug, or against those not actively attempting to take the Tausug away from the Islam faith. The juramentado's act was occasionally performed against the Japanese during World War II and the Japanese were clearly defined as enemies. The juramentado never went after Chinese residents in spite of the fact that the Chinese were non-Muslim.
