===============================================
Raja Petra’s Last Article before ISA

16 September 2008. That is Malaysia Day. That is also the day Anwar Ibrahim is supposed to take over the government. Today, some well-known personalities are joining Parti Keadilan Rakyat. From thereon, more are expected to follow, culminating in the final exodus of Barisan Nasional Members of Parliament.
Stay tuned for the announcements to follow.

Many just can’t believe that Anwar will really take over on 16 September 2008. Some just wish it were true. Some say it’s too good to be true. Others say Anwar is just playing poker. The sceptics say Anwar is laying the ground for a self-fulfilling prophecy. What is foremost in everyone’s mind is: is Anwar playing a high-stakes poker game or will this be a gunfight at the OK Corral?

At this point of time, Anwar can no longer just play poker. No one asked him to take over the government. No one set 16 September 2008 as the deadline. This was entirely Anwar’s own choice with no pressure or cohesion whatsoever on anyone’s part. It was Anwar who ‘volunteered’ the entire exercise. No one forced him into the situation.

Taking all this into consideration, there is no way Anwar can renege on his ‘promise’. To do so would result in a serious erosion of credibility. If Anwar fails to deliver his 16 September 2008 promise, he might as well disappear from the scene. If 16 September 2008 comes and goes as a non-event, Anwar too will become a non-event and will have to throw in the towel and call it quits.

Anwar is no novice. He is not an amateur politician. He is as seasoned as they come. And no seasoned politician like Anwar will commit Hara Kiri. And Hara Kiri it will be if Anwar turns around on 16 September 2008 and say, “I was just joking lah.”

So my money is on 16 September 2008 happening. Not happening would mean the death knell of Anwar Ibrahim. And Anwar is not ready to die just yet. If Anwar fails to deliver, that would trigger the beginning of the end for Parti Keadilan Rakyat.

Parti Gerakan Rakyat is on the verge of leaving the ruling coalition. No, it is not going to join Pakatan Rakyat. It is going to remain as an ‘independent’ party. And from there it is going to re-build its lost fortunes and revert to what it used to be when it was first launched 40 years ago in 1968.

Gerakan is going to be a most attractive party once it leaves Barisan Nasional and it launches its ‘remaking’ exercise. Hell, even I might get attracted to it once it transforms into what it started out in 1968. Gerakan will of course need to attract not only many professionals but from amongst all the races as well. And if Anwar falls short on 16 September 2008, Gerakan will be there with open arms to receive all the disappointed ex-Anwaristas who no longer have any confidence that Anwar is true to his word.

So, the stakes are too high not to succeed. This is not a game. It is not even a high-stakes poker game. It is a fight to the finish. It is a winner-takes-all situation. It is a last-man-standing duel. It is a gunfight at the OK Corral. And only one walks away from such a fight. And that one will be Anwar. My money is on that happening. Hell, my freedom is on that as well.

Today, I received many phone calls from concerned friends who told me that the government is considering detaining me under the Internal Security Act ‘very soon’. If that does happen, then this could probably be the last article I write, at least until 16 September 2008. So I too need Anwar to succeed. If not I will be in Kamunting for quite some time to come and you will not hear from me over the next couple of years.

Yes, I too have placed, not only my money, but also my freedom on Anwar. And if Anwar fails to deliver his promise on 16 September 2008, not only he but I as well am headed for a fall. But I have confidence he will do it. And I have confidence that my stay in Kamunting will not be for two years but for a mere two weeks.

But if I am wrong…..well, then see you maybe in six or seven years time, because for sure Najib Tun Razak will not release me in 2010 when he becomes Prime Minister. What he would do, instead, would be to rollover my two-year detention another two years, and another two years, and another two years, until I am too old to think and write anymore.

Till we meet again, if we do meet again, take care and keep the flame burning. There is still a long fight ahead of us in bringing reforms to this beloved country of ours.

RPK arrested under ISA !!

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamaruddin was arrested Friday afternoon under the Internal Security Act.

Three Malaysian newspapers - Sin Chew Daily, The Sun , and Suara Keadilan - were also issued show cause letters by the Home Ministry.

Raja Petra’s arrest comes a day after the Cabinet ordered the Multimedia and Communications Commission (MCMC) to re­instate access to all blocked websites, including the controversial Malaysia Today.

Energy, Water and Com­mu­nications Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor said on Thursday the order was made because there were other “harsher” laws in the country, under which authorities could take action against the owners of blogs and websites, instead of blocking it.

“The Cabinet has asked the ministry to direct MCMC to reinstate access to any blocked website with immediate effect.

“At the same time, it is asking MCMC to closely cooperate with the police, the Attorney-General’s Office and the Home Minister to monitor any website or blog to ensure that this does not contain seditious, racist or religiously insensitive remarks.

“Instead of blocking access to offensive websites, the Cabinet wants authorities to investigate and act quickly against the owners of these sites,” he said in Putrajaya.
=============================================

NOTE:
Sad attempt at "using our existing laws to bring about Justice"
- ISA was the best that could be done?
Maybe they'll think up something to actually bring up a real charge .....

Hate Mongers in Action!

===================================
Official truths are often powerful illusions.
- John Pilger

The majority of the Malay professionals and young Malays have hardened their stand on the position of their race since the disaster of 2008. They are incensed especially by the arrogance of the Bar Council. They now question the social contract and reject the need to adhere to it. This sounds almost like the Chinese stand. But the difference is startling and disturbing.
- Mahathir, CheDet.com
======================================

Like I said in my comments in an earlier post, the man to watch now is SuperDet himself. Umno is on it's knees begging for anything to perpetuate their hegemony.
Pirates will be pirates.
You're thinking of having "unity govt" with these guys?
They only understand the language of threats and blackmail.
They don't understand the language of ethics, decency, conscience and "values" - what matters to them is that they can blackmail people to work for them, so as to give value to the monies they enjoy.
They wish to deal in money, but refuse to abandon "the gun".
This is modern day slavery under Pirates - the money is just a front.

These pirates encourage what a reader called the "Dilbert Sydrome", wherein the mediocre are given "opportunities" to strangle the life out of the industrious, thus promoting the pirate's philosophy. These ignoramuses would of course be eternally grateful to the "masters" for their "progress in life" and would do their master's bidding without a thought, in the interest of self-preservation.
Pirates in high places revel in the ignorance and mediocrity of the common man, as it allows them to convince the ignorant they they'd lose out bigtime should they compete according to the law. They make it a point to drum it into their subjects that they are incapable and weak, and as such, need the law to legitimize the plunder advocated by the pirates.
They come up with a political spin called 'social contract" as an excuse to legitimize "legalized robbery".
Is it any wonder that many a turd-world nation in South America and Africa (like Zimbabwe) and the "Islamic world" are in the same predicament?

This what the BN "social contract' is all about.
To them, the real social contract of the Federal Constitution is nothing but toilet paper - just a front to grant them legitimacy on the world stage.
It is what Mahathir preaches with all his sloganeering and "Malay" Chauvinism, despite being a first generation Malaysian himself
- Bondage & enslavement of the Malay mind in its seige mentality.
He preaches the primitive response of "Flight or Fight" - reason has no role to play with such as these.
Just look at Umno Baru with the litter of imbeciles he has left behind for AAB to deal with, and you'll know what I mean. In his myopic "vision", Malaysia has to become a bigger Umno Baru, devoid of accountability, justice, conscience, philosophy and intellect.

If you ask me, the Malays have to think of their children's future. They have to make a choice between succumbing to threats & fear mongering, and stand up for truth and justice - so that the truth can set them free. They are today in Bondage.
If in the process of the struggle, truth and justice loses - so be it.
Malaysia is doomed to the cesspit of chaotic failed states ruled by pirates - and the slide downhill would be irreversible.
Should that be the case, in due time, Mahathir can have his vision for a truly homogenous Malay Muslim state at odds with itself, while his decendants happily become the new "penjajah".
The Malay children of tomorrow can thump their chests and their empty bellies, and shout out the hate politics/chauvinism of "Ketuanan Melayu" with no more scapegoats left, except their their own kind.

This disgusting old goat wishes to run down Tunku's vision of Nationhood.
Mahathir wishes to stoke the fires of racism through Racial-hate politics.
He now claims that all Malays reject the idea that non-Malays are equal before the law, oblivious to the facts seen on March 8th and Permatang Pauh. Even if it weren't the case he wishes to get the Malays to think so - and mind you, he has a strong following among the mindless imbeciles (you only need to look at the comments in his blog to see what I mean), for whom he does what they call "thinking".

He wishes to enslave the Malays to Umno, through hate mongering and "Malay" hegemony. He seems to be rooting for inter-racial confrontational politics. He wants the NEP - a Malaysian "Cold War".
He wishes to subvert the Federal Constitution and render it into toilet paper. He wishes to discredit the Bar Council, the Judiciary and the concept of "Rule of Law".
He wishes to render the Constitution invalid. He wishes for nothing less than Racial conflict by harping on the BN "social contract".
He cannot accept the fact that the political and economic landscape has changes. What is being threatened now is the very legitimacy of the Constitution, and the contribution of all citizens towards the making of Malaysia.

He wishes to blackmail all right thinking Malaysians into submission to his demonic ideas. He advocates a dictatorship of the elite "Malays" who are made of decendants of immigrants themselves.
He wishes that Malaysia be ruled by pirates perpetually
- Dulu, Kini dan Selamanya.
The bottomline here is the will of the majority, the real Malay electorate - do they allow the people a chance to consider God-ordained, rational and just options, or do they wish to be enslaved under the shell of the "BN Social Contract with towkays" in bondage to their Pirate master.

Let's see how he faces-off with DS Anwar Ibrahim .....

A "State of Abduction and Ransom"?

"Hearing" Postponed!

The hearing of the "case" against DSAI has been postponed to 24/9/08.

Malaysiakini reports ->, "Justice Komathy fixed Sept 24 for the parties to argue on the validity of an order signed by Attorney-General Abdul Gani to transfer the case to the high court".

It appears that what is said in the post
AG- The Institution over the Individual? Here?, is true after all
- Nazri was wrong or ignorant to say that the AG wouldn't be involved in the case!
The Individual is somehow not under the Institution after all - and I'm not the least bit surprised.

It's either somebody lied in public, or is plain ignorant of the "system" works - maybe it was just a spin to last out till the dust settle, and then it would be business as usual?

Anyway, the man to watch right now isn't Nazri, Hamid Albar, Ahmad Ismail or Zulkifli Nordin .....
The man to watch now is none other than Mr.SuperDet himself, who has come back to give "Ketuanan Melayu" and mediocrity, new "Voice" ......

Did I hear someone speak of of shotgun diplomacy in "keeping the peace or we'll run amuck against the 'nons'"?
Did I hear someone speaking of 5.13?
So this is what the spin about the BN's unconstitutional "social contract" is all about, is it? The grubby hands on the shrinking pie ....

No wonder the mad cow from Penang got some tacit support from somebody who made a U-turn within 24hrs .....
===========================================

Fearing the 'Trojans' of 916?

*****************************************************************
Has anyone considered the possibility that all this Penang "race issue" is a big drama to "destabilize" create tension to scare the people?
That the BN partners may be co-starring actors in the whole "racial-conflict" drama perpetrated by this Ahmad Ismail character?
Just so that the "chinese-based" parties can attempt to show that they have some "teeth" and would "defend the Chinese Race" - who knows ..... maybe there be an "Indian-based conflict" soon, so that that "ayah" can make some noise.
It all seems so .... "artificial", in that it is set in Penang which is under PR. Gerakan "stands up to" Umno, MCA joins in the fray - makes police reports and creates so much hype ......
And just when things should be dying down, somebody ups the ante,
then the Army General has to make an "announcement",
and Mahathir should be joining Umno again and so on and so forth ...
The whole thing is just too fishy .... maybe we should just ignore the animal and his antics!

Here's a comment on MT:
written by ez24get, September 09, 2008 22:30:35
Raja Petra,
Just be careful! It may look like a mad cow disease, smell like a mad cow disease but it is not a mad cow disease! It may well be a "wayang kulit cow disease".
Although the disease is inflicted on Ahmad Ismail at the moment but the real disease, more deadly and more devastating, will actually be unleashed on Raja Petra and those people who are responsible for UMNO's slipping grip on power in Malaysia.
Don't you sense that the bravery shown by Ahmad Ismail in playing up the racial sentiments of malays, going head to head with Gerakan while ignoring the president and vice-president is very fishy?
By sacrificing Ahmad Ismail, they will turn around and say that in order to be fair and show that they don't practise double standard, all people who are considered as threat to harmony and race relation in Malaysia will be rounded up and detained under ISA. Effectively NGOs, foreigners and oppositions in Malaysia cannot now argue that only action is taken on Ahmad Ismail for uttering racial slurs but the others like Raja Petra, Bloggers and opposition parties be spared from action.
They would sacrifice only one low level UMNO politician, albeit Ahmad Ismail, but they are able to put the big fishes like Raja Petra, LKS, LGE or Anwar behind bars which would slow down or stop completely their march to Putrajaya! In the end, MCA, Gerakan and MIC will fall over themselves in praising UMNO for practising fairness and justice to the non-malays. They will be duped into staying in BN for the time being.
So watch the wayang kulit carefully. UMNO is likely to take stern action on Ahmaid Ismail tomorrow! But very soon, they will go after the real target with greater zeal!!!

Demikianlah ketakutan mereka sehingga apabila hak mereka di buruk-burukan dan diserang, mereka tidak berani mempertahankan diri mereka.

"I urge the Chinese not to become like the Jewish in America, where it is not enough that they control the economy, but they also want to dominate politics,"
- Ahmad Ismail, Umno Penang.

Not only has Ismail won widespread support in Umno Penang but also elsewhere in the country, indicating that the old Umno-dominated order is not dying ....
Some Malaysians still have hope that the BN can transform itself ...

- The Star, Dr Mahathir persuaded to rejoin Umno
************************************************************

What we see from the quotes above, cements the fact that Umno Baru (the shell of the dead & gone real UMNO of Onn Jaafar) insists on perpetuating their bull-headed ways in dealing with the political realities that it faces.
There are among these, the pseudo-entrepreneurs/leaders, who have lost everything as a result of the absence of power/political patronage.
As a result of their intellectually challenged status, they today choose to exhibit their muscle, for fear of 916 - instead of humility, reflection, repentance & solidarity.
Some are crying out to the NGOs/Bar council/ bloggers for not codemning the "immorality" of defections".
Some of course have chosen to run to Taiwan, so as to become experts in kangkung agriculture ... but nobody seems to care anymore about these has beens (except the pirates)!

Having played to the tune of Fascistic ideas for 25yrs, Umno is so clueless, that they don't even know how to play the tune of reconciliation and solidarity - they only seem to understand the evil language of supremacy and intimidation, thus alienating themselves from their own. And they simply just don't give a chance, to those who give them the benefit of doubt!
This attitude in defending the indefensible is goaded on, by none other than our dear ex-PM, Mr. Mahathir himself who appears to have settled for a lesser bargain in the Umno Baru Kuli, lest the "chill he faces is mortal".
(Take note that being "spoilt for choice" as a result of his meticulous planning of his "vision", he has chosen "anybody", over burying his baby- Umno Baru). Of course the 513 rhetoric is being blasted all over again so as to play the "fear" card - without that, these pretenders are NOTHING.


Despite all their fears, my bet is it won't happen on 916 - I agree with RPK that 919, 920 or 922 would be more like it. Don't ask me why - I can't give you a spin on why I say so ...
That weekend will see nerves fraying and mercury rising among all parties.
Let it not be said that there is no anxiety on part of the Rakyat, come 916 - even if that day comes to pass with no change in Govt.
Let it not be said either, that the rakyat love the idea of "defectors/crossovers" - the problem remains that the people are caught between "the devil and the deep blue sea", and any right thinking person would choose the latter.

It is not that Anwar offers a hierarchy that is definite to produce impeccable results - Pakatan Rakyat is simply an electoral pact which is at its infancy and nowhere near a full-fledged coalitio. In it, there is much anxiety with regard to the "old school" politicians who don't seem to to have adapted well with the current climate which has hit them like a ton of bricks. As in all political parties, mutual (intra and inter- party) suspicions and conflicts still do exist , which are yet to be ironed out.
One one side, the Malays are anxious if the DAP plans to usurp power for the "Chinese" (which I believe is ridiculous) while diluting the beautiful Malay nature of West Malaysia with its talk of "meritocracy" and Malaysian Malaysia.
On the other side, we have amny a non-Malay nervous about trusting PAS with power, lest they resort to the "old-school" hardline Islamist/theocratic rhetoric and enforcement, thus curtailing freedom/pluralism and promoting "dhimmitude".
PKR while holding on to the "middle ground" has elements like Zulkifli who have obviously slithered past QC, to become an MP on the PKR ticket - and now creates anxiety among the people.

Yes - Many still fear the Umno Baru Trojans who slithered past QC in the new Pakatan Rakyat and the prospect of political/economic turmoil that may be imminent. But it pales in comparison the fear of a Racist & Fascist regime, perpetuated by the Pirates of the Constitution, who are intent on leeching on the industrious and living a life of decadence, while reciting scriptures for the gullible.
Despite all their teething problems, inconsistencies and the anxieties they provoke, they appear to be saints when compared to the alternative in the mindless band of pirates who now cry foul, because nobody is on their side on the issue of "defections".

It is heartening to note that Raja Petra has come out strongly, rebuking the proponents of violent assertion of "rights" (notably Khir Toyo & Ahmad Ismail) for playing up the threat of violence against the Non- Malays. He also went on to say,
"... warn the Umno Malays, in no uncertain terms, that they take to the streets at the risk of facing fellow Malays from the opposition who will defend their non-Malay brethren to the last drop of their blood. I, for one, am ready to stand by my Chinese and Indian comrades.
So let Umno be warned."

I was truly touched by the expression of solidarity, and I would be vindicated in my faith, in my good Malay Brothers & Sisters should this be the general sentiment.
Should this sentiment be proven, I'd bet my last penny that there is no reason for my Malay brothers to fear being sidelined economically (although they would still need to understand the nature of money & work for their rewards, despite the affirmative action in MEA) in time to come.
All it takes is that they rise to the occasion just once and speak the language of justice, (instead of the language of the seige mentality/fear/insecurity/inferiority complex promoted by Umno)- and they'd dispel the fears and anxieties of the minorities, to create trust like never seen before in Malaysia.
And what a beautiful scenario of hope it would provide for a dynamic Nation!

The Rise of Apologists for Racism!

All 13 Umno divisions in Penang backed embattled Bukit Bendera Umno chief Ahmad Ismail in not apologising over his alleged racist remarks.
-Malaysia kini

Penang opposition leader: Reporter should be shot
Penang opposition leader Datuk Azhar Ibrahim, who was at the press conference to show support for Bukit Bendera Umno head Datuk Ahmad Ismail, criticised the reporter from the Chinese newspaper who allegedly twisted Ahmad's words during the Permatang Pauh by-election campaign. However, the state Umno secretary did not name the reporter but claimed that only one Chinese publication reported Ahmad's statement. "What was written may lead to a racial riot. If such a thing happens, he is the first person that should be shot," he said to loud cheers from Umno supporters who packed the meeting room at Menara Umno here.
- The Malaysian Insider

Sebenarnya orang Melayu sekarang amat takut jika mereka diberi label "racist". Mereka menulis dalam akhbar yang orang Melayu bukan racist. Demikianlah ketakutan mereka sehingga apabila hak mereka di buruk-burukan dan diserang, mereka tidak berani mempertahankan diri mereka.

You cannot reason with thugs.
Especially thugs who believe that it is their right to
"live by force, yet count on those who live by trade to create the value of their looted money".
That it is their right to "get richer by graft and by pull than by work",
to have "money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors"
and your "laws don't protect you against them",
but "protect them against you".

This is the true color of some thugs who smile sweetly when they dish out chicken feed to the people, while they get drunk on luxuries at the expense of the hard working citizens.
It is indeed shameful that there are people within the fold of the very organisation that questions their citizenship of Malaysia, who are blind to this fact.
It is probably time for all allies of Umno to pull out of the coalition and support the Government of PR, and leave Umno out in the cold by themselves, should they not have the guts and decency to censure the hate & war mongers!
That is if they have an iota of self respect and honour left in them!

Notice how Mahathir has subtly supported this thug, despite having said a fortnight ago, that what is perceived as rights aren't actually so?
He justified racism and hate mongering, and only stopped short of saying that Racism is right! He probably saw the "opportunity" in this conflict and wishes to stoke the fire!
He actually shamelessly equated a kid's Negarakuku, which was just a parody for which he apologized, to this questioning of the citizenship by a leader at a public rally!
It's probably what all gutter politicians do - I have no way to confirm that.
Mahathir even uses Hindraf as an excuse to justify this.
In his typical style, he then makes a U-turn within 24hrs, and says:
"I am not defending nor do I like what Ahmad Ismail of Bukit Bendera said. It does not contribute to lessening the tension between the races. But I feel disgust at the inability of the present Malay leadership to manage racialism.
"It took a long time for me to live down the label as a Malay ultra. I had gained such strong support from the Chinese community in the 1999 general election when the Malays deserted me that I felt I was no longer regarded as a Malay ultra by the Chinese generally (the Opposition Chinese excepted).
"I was grateful for the Chinese support and I had many times publicly acknowledged that much of Malaysia's development was due to the dynamic Malaysian Chinese entrepreneurs and businessmen. "
For more on Mahathir's mind, click here & here.

He seems intent on "shaming" the Malays into anger, should they speak the truth out of their conscience.
He even berates the Malay leadership for being afraid of being labeled as racist!
He appears to advocate arrogance and retribution upon the men of goodwill for this "shame" .....
This time, he doesn't condemn racism unequivocally, or even apologize for the racism that he preached but counters it with an accusation. Just like the Kinabatangan Bung, Mr. Chris, Zulkifli and Ahmad Ismail, he claims to be "misunderstood"!!
Maybe it is a new pathological disease spread by a "denial virus" among certain mentally handicapped politicians - but for heaven's sakes ......
Someone, anyone ..... please tell me Mahathir isn't a Racist and a Fascist!

I wonder if anyone remembers RPK's "It's the Arithmetic, Stupid!" and an earlier one along the same lines, which advocated cutting deals with "some blackmailing elements", to "keep the peace".
They wish to blackmail the people, and creating discord among the people under the guise of "racial conflict" is the easiest way.

With the dawn of 916, there is a nervous/desperate attempt among "certain quarters" at recreating 5.13, so as to keep their grubby pirate's hands on the pie. That's why I said that "it's about the money, stupid" - and not race, religion or "Malay rights", which they want you to believe. Some excerpts of what I had written on my blog was posted (with links) in the comments section of the "Arithmetic" article in No Holds Barred.

Before we decide to to cave in to hate politics and 'subtle threats', let us consider the facts, and the corruption/decadence that would be inflicted upon everybody in future, should we do so.

This is a turning point in History, and it is in the hands of our good Malay & Muslim brethren this Ramadhan.
Search your hearts, brothers - These guys wish to hold the country at ransom, and rule with impunity in a climate of fear.
These guys will rip your hearts out, so that you will live as an empty shell of a person, devoid of a conscience, ignorant of ethics, and without a sense of right & wrong - all these while making you recite scriptures for consolation. This is what I meant when I wrote a year ago, "Even if we aren't too accurate in our assessment, much of what has passed off for Islamisation by the govt was nothing more than frothy God-talk, mindless, thoughtless, and in its exploitation of people, heartless."

The question is, do the people of Malaysia, regardless of race or religion, wish to live as slaves to these thugs, or do we wish for a brighter future without the lodestone of 513 hanging around our necks.

Come Sept 16, we will know .....

The Racist's "Reasonings".

The Other Face/Mind Of PKR (MP, Kulim-Bandar Baru)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The following video clips comes in Eight parts - what I have put up are clips 7 & 8.
The others are equally "interesting".......


xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In my last post, I had mentioned Zulkifli Nordin, as a product of the NEP Education system. He represents Pembela, and threatened to storm the Bar Council Forum at the mob which shouted "Babi balik Cina". Someone also demanded that the Bar Council President should be a Muslim, ignorant that the previous Muslim President also condemned him.

How he is any different from Ahmad Ismail, (who was whacked endlessly, with a couple of police reports from the 'chinese' parties to boot) - I simply fail to see.
One uses "Religion", and the other uses "Race" as a stage to incite - with the political end result desired, being one and the same!
But why the silence? Do politicians (Muslim or not) shudder when religion is brought to the fore?
If so, we are heading towards the chaos that would indeed lead to a theocratic state in due time - whether we like it or not!

Zulkifli Nordin expressed no remorse for his uncouth and insensitive behaviour.
Anwar Ibrahim, had apparently "accepted" his reasons for having pursued his unruly and unconstitutional behaviour/actions at the above incident, and let go.
This he has done, despite having had "Kafir Laknatullah" (i.e. 'damned kafirs' - as Zulkifli calls them) representing him in court when he was accused of Sodomy/ Corruption, and was acquited with their help! Where was PEMBELA then?
Listening to Mahathir's Umno Baru and hoping for contracts?
I'm truly disappointed that he should be the face of PKR that preaches "Ketuanan Rakyat?!!

His issue is being discussed on Malaysia Today and The People's Parliament right now.

On August 31st, Zulkifli spoke at a Mosque about his idea of "Merdeka". The talk which appears to border on "incitement", seems to be designed for the camera, with only a small, bored and clueless audience listening to his nonsensical monologue.
The losses in courts are challenged not through the legal channels, but by whipping up of public sentiments by ridiculing jugdement made in the Federal Courts! He perceives every judgement against the cases he defends (or at least uses as a political platform), as an "attack on Islam", as he sees it!

It is truly pathetic that he perceives in his simple mind, that the Judgement on the "serban" issue as an attack on "Islam" (as he sees it).
His alarmist tirade against the Constitution at the Mosque, seems to be meant to whip up sentiments, inter-religious conflict and support, to infringe on the Constitutional rights of Non-Muslims, before he takes his case to court.
Take note also on how he takes pot shots and pours scorn upon all other people or religions, Muslim or not, should they differ in opinion with him on the interpretation of the law (or Islam, for that matter) - SIS, and all NGOs which stand up for Human Rights!.

Does he wish to subvert & hold the courts at ransom, with his rabble-rousing and (what I personaly perceive as) fascistic ideas/methods? Nobody can say what he intends to achieve with this kind of conduct.
Take note of how he describes Native Languages (and the word 'Tarzan', after Kadazan), how he handles the Bible, how he describes other religions/Gods and how he describes those who read the Malay Bible.
In an earlier video, he mentions how "ustazah" Kamariah (of the Ayah Pin case) had worked "di Sarawak, dan balik ke Malaysia ....."
- did he think that Sarawak isn't part of Malaysia?

While we ask the BN leadership to discipline Ahmad Ismail, let us hope that
DS Anwar Ibrahim doesn't ignore the dangerous Fascist and Racist elements, extremists/moles/imbeciles within the PKR when he shouts out "Ketuanan Rakyat" and courts Sabah/Sarawak.
Why are DAP and PAS silent on this matter? Are they willing to give up their principles for the sake of avoidinga by election or in their greed for power?
Subverting the philosophy of the Party to suit political ambitions would render PKR and Pakatan Rakyat sitting ducks for sabotage from within - not to mention the Nation as a whole.

This is the pathetic result of the "anti-intellectualism" and the "siege mindset" that has been bred and nurtured systematically under the "Education Blueprint" of the NEP, more so during the time of Mahathirism.
Educating people to be stupid, isn't an easy - more so to make leaders out of them.
NEP however, has done a great job at educating many of the people into imbecility.
Yes - That's Malaysia Boleh for you!

Just as decisions were made when certain people infringed on our constitutional rights by whipping up racist and religious sentiments,
I now call upon you readers to decide if you wish to support a leader who would excuse such shameless conduct from Zulkifli Nordin (PKR - Kulim Bandar Baru) and his ilk.

Anyway, I for one, wouldn't hesitate to withdraw my support for them or the allies of such hypocrites ...... and I call upon all you readers and the Bar Council, to voice out your displeasure on this immorality, and attempt at the perversion of the Constitution, Justice & the Law by one who claims to be a Lawyer, under the Parti Keadilan Rakyat ticket!
It is hoped that this message gets to the leadership of PKR and their allies in Pakatan Rakyat.
