WHEN NAZRI OPENS HIS MOUTH - A LOT IS REVEALED

THE PICTURE THAT INFURIATED MAHATHIR AND UMNO

 Minister in the Prime Minsiter's Department, Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz (one of the intelligent advocates of the the Trio )  is now calling for the establishment of a Royal Commission of Inquiry into the alleged Anwar Ibrahim Sex tapes.

He was reported by Malaysiakini to have said, "the police have to complete their investigation into the sex video featuring a man purportedly resembling Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim and identify the actor before the government moves to form a royal commission of inquiry."

"It was decided that we should allow the police to wrap up their investigation first,  it's not enough to just ascertain if the (video) is authentic or not. We also have to identify the person in the video, We cannot jump the gun... otherwise it would seem like we are being (partisan)."

Can I ask this learned lawyer, what exactly does he mean by this?

Is he saying that no matter who it is, they will move to form a Royal Commission of Inquiry, or is he saying once the police establish it is Anwar they will call for the RCI?

Whichever way you answer the question you will discover something fascinating, you'll discover  why this lawyer is not practicing law and is a   politician and more so - an UMNO politician at that, and why successive Prime Ministers have wanted to "use"  him.

Well, honestly  even if he reads this blog he'll never get it.

If the Police investigation reveals it is Anwar, why on earth will we require  a Royal commission of inquiry to be set up on the initiative of the government?

Is he telling us the government does not trust the force, and so  a Royal Commission needs to establish if they - the Police, are telling us the truth?

Well Nazri, tell this government that they  do not have to tell us this , we have suspected that for sometime now, and thanks for confirming our worst fears.

Now if the Police say it is not Anwar, is he saying the same thing he does not trust the force and a RCI has to determine if the Police are telling us the truth?

I think we need an RCI to look into many other things too if that is the case, including the case of Altantuya Shaaribu, and the related cases like that of PI Bala. .

In the Altantuya case the Police did not investigate the Prime Minsiter although they had good reason to, now considering the stature of the personality involved - the PM,  this certainly  is a case where  the RCI needs to be established.

Then can I also ask him why such a commission was not instituted to look into  Chua Soil Lek's video, in the case of Chua Soil Lek, he was a a senior cabinet minister, he was the minister of health,  a senior member in the MCA supreme council  and the MCA is a senior member of the BN the party that forms the government of Malaysia.

When people can film such a senior minister of  the cabinet in such a compromising position is it not a grave threat to national security?

He could have been blackmailed into giving huge medical supply contracts to the wrong people, he could have been blackmailed into revealing security secrets to which only the cabinet is privy to aren't these serious enough to invoke action, or are the Ministers from MCA and other non UMNO parties only messenger boys who are not privy to real government information?

I do not think anyone would be surprised if they knew the truth on that score anyway.

Think what would have happened if they caught the Prime Minister in such a position with an actress or a singer in a hotel in PD, will that not be a serious breach of security?

Even the filming of an opposition leader of Parliament is a serious breach of security, it is a criminal offence, and what are the police  doing about it.

Let us get this straight once and for all.

The act of having sexual intercourse, even if it happened to be  with Nazri's sister is not a crime as long as it is between two consenting adults and Nazri knows that only too well, he is a lawyer mind you and as a lawyer he knows that damn well, and even if it was his sister in the tape, there is nothing he as minister in the PM's department can do about it except that if he was thick enough get some stooges to bring out in the press, because as long as his sister is over the age of 18 and has consented to have sexual relations with another adult, even if that adult was Anwar  it will be of no consequence. Morally wrong? yes.  A Shariah offence, well Shariah law has some conditions, I am not sure if this will fulfill those conditions. A crime? No.

Murder a crime?  leave that for Nazri to answer.

Intimidating a witness who has made a statutory declaration a crime? Over to you Nazri after all you are the law minister.

However the filming of the act by a third party is a criminal offence, it becomes even a bigger cause for concern if it is a senior cabinet minister who  is  being filmed, or the prime minister or even the head of the opposition, when that happens it moves into another realm, it becomes a threat to national security besides just being the criminal act it is,.

Till today the people who captured Chua Soi Lek on video  have not been caught, and Chua himself is rather quiet about it. Why this silence, this is indeed a National Security risk, but why this quiet?

Are these people the Police, the Minster of Home Affairs, the Prime Minsiter and Chua Soil Lek himself so stupid that they do not realise the gravity  of the offence?

How many times has this issue and its relation  to National Security  even been addressed?

Does this not require the RCI, the RCI to determine why this investigation has not taken place?

It is not easy to wire the premises of a hotel by persons unknown, without the hotel owners and workers being aware that such an operation is going on, and yet today after so long the makers of that DVD have not been brought to the book.

What about Eskay, his real name is SK, he has admitted he was there whilst it was being filmed, it was he in the picture he has admitted, so who made this video is it not easy to establish, we need to know that?

In this present case, yes!! a RCI will be good thing, it will determine the real criminals in the case, the making of the video, the filming of the video for the press to view was that not an offence and the subsequent blackmail.

To top it all the head of police shows his ignorance and or his arrogance by asking the press what he should charge the trio with? If he is really so ignorant he should resign from his post, or the minister of home affairs should have taken him to task, that minister is of the same pedigree and we'll talk about him later.

Prime Minster after Prime Minsiter have found Nazri useful, he was the official court jester, and if you do not believe me click on the link see what Mahahtir had to say about Nazri,  he knew Nazri's limited abilities and what it could be used for,  so Mahathir  kept him, with people like Nazri you can do about anything you personally would not  want to.

Even Pak La discovered this,  and now Najib too, so why do you think they require a Minsiter in the Prime Minster's department, when the PM is already there?

Malaysian  Prime Ministers since Mahathir have found it necessary to talk nonsense and discovered they   require someone to shout on their  behalf, and who better then Nazri,  because when Nazri opens his mouth everyone knows what to expect. Nazri is the extreme, there are other ministers who come close, very close to Nazri,  we'll deal with them later.

All  anyone has to do is to just google some of these Minsiters and  you'll get enough of sex scandals involving them and their family members, and yet these fellows  shout without thinking, they should google before shouting.

Do we really  need to go down that road? Will it solve our political problems?

Think Nazri, Think.

A pose for a Najis and his plastic Rose

Image by Photo Giddy via Flickr

I am unwell and on doctors orders to take a rest. I shall still try to squeeze in a column or two in what is after all, a passion.


Please enjoy some of the older articles if you are around and do let your friends know about this blog, Howl has a classic which I am not releasing as yet, its all about porn something so common these days.


I hope to get well soon, my spondylolysis coupled with a shoulder injury is really hurting and I find it hard to sit by the computer.


I hope to be up and about as soon as possible. In the meantime,  I'd like to advice all of you to keep away from propaganda machines like , "The Star"and "The new Straits Times." Of course as you all know the NST is owned by the New UMNO, everything there is new.

The picture featured is Obama and Palin,think what happens if a certain Najis and Plastic Rose posed like that for us. 

I may be sick but I still think of Najis and Plastic Rosmah. 

Since we are into dancing, ever hear about a "Christian Dance?" Well I am a Christian but am yet to hear of one, we dance yes but we do not have any Christian dance as far as I am concerned.

According to the articles on the links provided below, the authorities in Malaysia  are saying that since it originated in Jamaica, and a is also widely popular in the Phillipines a Christian country they suspect the dance 'poco-poco'  is Christian and are telling Muslims not to do that dance.


What nonsense, can we say the same for the middle eastern Belly Dance then?


Really  people need to have their brains put into the washing machine, don't you think so?

INTERLOK, HISTORY, 1 MALAYSIA & THE MAHATHIRIAN (MAHAHTIRDAN) AGENDA

There is no more fascinating history  than the history of South East Asia. It beats me why this history is not compulsory reading in our schools. Perhaps it is because education here has a strong political agenda. It remains a tool to propagate and perpetuate political and economic policies of the government. What a pity! And what else is “Interlok” all about ? What a shame! But those who have read South East Asian history know that its treasures are numerous!"

Howl Pillai  ("The idea behind the idea" )


Interlok, yes Interlok, it seems like it is still locked..........................But the Chinese have arrived

After a big hue and cry from segments of the indian community, we  have had a group of Indians, planted by the government and its lackeys (MIC)  to make a lot of noise about interlok, everything seems to have ended very well, that is what these people who sat with Muhyuddin have said, the word pariah has been taken out of the text and so all is alright.

So once these people who sit with their boss the Malay man (incidentally those sitting with him  are Indians and Malaysians are out of the picture) say it is alright and so, the rest of the Indian community must accept what is said - issue closed.

We've not  heard from HINDRAF yet, they stood up for the school boys and rightly so,  who when they returned their copies of the book to the school were sent to the police station for questioning, by the school authorities,  Interlok is not the National flag, it is not the National Anthem and because they returned a book they deemed improper for their own reasons they were sent to the police- a Malaysian first I reckon.

Our Minister of Education is not a Malaysian he is a Malay, (when he feels it is convenient he'll say he is a Malaysian)  his origins are somewhere in the Indonesian Islands, he knows where but he is not saying so, instead  if you ask him what he is  he says, "Melayu,"  which in Javanese means "run away."  but a  'runaway' from where at least he has to have the decency to tell us that.

Now  after this Indian group has been pacified, a group of some 45 NGOs have come out and in their numbers are some prominent Chinese groups.

Finally it looks like the Chinese have arrived, hooray, as they used to say in Hokkien when I was in school, "Heelo lai leow lo!" but are any of Chua Soi Lek's henchmen in this group of Chinese, I really do not know, but I think it will be better for all concerned if they weren't, you'll get a repeat of the MIC issue.                                                                     

Its nice to know that the  Chinese have decided to respond, they should have earlier, they would have had more tooth, now that the Indians appointed by the governments men have agreed on accepting it after some changes, the Chinese are responding, the response should have been earlier, but as the saying goes 'better late than never."

If we consider Interlok a literary work worthy of being made compulsory reading for our form five students, I must say  we have an extremely poor taste and  judgment of what good and worthy  literary pieces  are and,  it is a poor reflection of  our ministry of education, those responsible for having chosen this book for this purpose, and its minister, unless there is an ulterior motive for the selection of this book which is actually the crux of all the fuss.

Having said that one can understand where a runaway who needs to claim an identity approaches the subject of interlok from.

Yes, this book which is extremely racist in nature has been brought out to make our children learn that the Malay is Tuan and that they are all subject to him, this was and is the great Mahathirian agenda and the baton has been passed to Muhyiddin Yassin, the one time Menteri Besar of Johor whom Mahathir regarded as man without a personality as he was reputed to be one of the shabbiest dressed politicians in the BN. He was told this and has since been seen less often with  his loose, over-sized and cheap looking batik shirts which he has now traded for classic suits.

Should interlok be compulsory reading material?

Why, if the students need to be exposed to the truth then South East Asian History should be the answer, for therein lies the truth, South East Asian History will reveal the truths behind the myths that are now being created in Malaysian history, because it will provide the links and with those links the truth in our history will be established. And history is all about the truth, and not as my friend Howl put it “to propagate and perpetuate political and economic policies of the (BN) Government.”

For instance we  need to  know who Parameswar really was, not what we want to make him out to be for such reasons,

When I first studied Malayan History in the early sixties Parameswara was supposed to be an Indian Prince from a Hindu Kingdom , later when my younger brother learned this in the seventies it became a Hindu Prince but not an Indian, well I objected and later I agreed saying well it could be so, now we are being indirectly  told he is the father of one of our former Prime Minsiters as his name has been changed to Iskandar, and he was a Muslim, and incidentally that  Prime Minsiter has Indian blood too and is claiming to be a full blooded Malay, and his father's name is Iskandar too. Coincidence?


We need to know of the great Hindu Kingdoms that ruled over these parts of Asia,  we need to revisit the origins of the Wayang Kulit, (the Ramayana version I mean not the wayang kulit the BN plays), our history is our heritage, and in that heritage we'll see our oneness.

We need to know the real Hang Tuah, and the Hang Jebat, were they  related to Hang Li Poh and what were their real roles in the History of Malaysia, these people as their names will suggest were from the Hangs of China.

To write them off as mere legends is to hide our own heritage, I rememebr in the sixties on Children's day each year it began in the sixties we had a "Child Hero's Award" it was a National Award and it was called the 'Pingat Hang Tuah." whatever became of that award.

 There has been this urgent desire of late to wipe out our heritage, the Merdeka Stadium has lost its importance, no one seems to talk about it any longer? Bukit Jalil built by Mahathir has taken its place.

There are these continuous problems with Parliament House, leaks, broken latches, stinking toilet bowls, due to poor maintenance and use, to  what seems to me to be willful neglect,   it is deteriorating, is this done on purpose so that a New Parliament can be built in Putra Jaya, the Putrajaya built by Mahathir,  and the present one forgotten?

Kuala Lumpur which was made a Federal Territory just so that Selangor would continue to be in UMNO hands has been  replaced by Putrajaya as the seat of government, again by Mahathir?

The UMNO of 1946 is dead, killed by Mahathir, the UMNO we have today is UMNO Baru - it is a completely new party set up in accordance with Mahathir’s rules?

Mahathir has been trying to wipe out our  history, the parts that came before him, now he has attempted to establish a new Independence, a Mahathirian Merdeka, his very own agenda, where  the ketuanan Melayu reigns supreme, and he will be proclaimed the father of  that Merdeka (coup), and interlok whether you like it or not is locked to this agenda.

To respond to this Mahatrhirian agenda, we need to go back to our real history, we need to establish the truth, and South East Asian History has a lot to do with it.

We need to excavate and restore our edifices of our great History, the temples in Kedah, the lost city in Johor instead of confining statues   to the basements of museums hidden in the jungles  or kept as the personal property of rulers.

What race is ashamed of its own heritage? Only a people who deny their own real racial origins I suppose.

Who is Mahathir? Very recently it has been reported that he has said he is not sure of his own roots.

Or are we walking down the road of the Taliban, where they blew up centuries  old Statues of the Buddha in Afghanistan, are we becoming that intolerant, or could we be moving towards extreme right wing  policies led by UMNO and Perkasa.

Our heritage is ours and ours alone we have to defend it with our lives all of us as Malaysians, Najib included,  not our positions in Putrajaya, because without a heritage what is Putrajaya.

Get into the real history of our country, and we'll find that all the Malays, the Chinese the Indians are yes in someway children of immigrants, the Aborogines and the native population of Sarawak and Sabah the original people of the land, the real Bumiputera, and this UMNO hang up of  "Ketuanan Melayu" created by an Indian who claims to be a Malay, is to usurp the legitmacy of these natives and rob us of our history.

We are linked to the rest of South East Asia historically and we can't run away from that. South East Asian history is our history that is something we have to make compulsory reading for our form five students to mould them to know who we are how we came here and where we go from here.

Whatever it is, once the truth is established, it will be our history, of which we will all be proud of, it will be our heritage which we shall pass on to our children and our childrens children, it must be the truth, we should not live on lies, and then and only then can we talk of  a 1 Malaysia.

THE IDEA BEHIND THE IDEA

Image by Stuck in Customs via Flickr

By Howl Pillay

Bumiputra. From the Sanskrit--Bumi (Earth,Land) and Putra (Sons, Inheritors). Give us any Malay word and we can easily trace its roots to Sanskrit, Tamil, Hindi, Persian, Arabic, Chinese, English, Portuguese and Spanish.

But tracing the origin of words does not tell us  why and how certain words and terms came into use in a particular way. Why did the Malays choose “Bumiputra” to express a political idea, an idee fixe and an ideology ? Does the word  “Bumiputra” unconsciously express an aspect of culture, a past or even a suppressed  ‘race memory’ ? Here are some possible answers  to these questions.

There is no more fascinating history  than the history of South East Asia. It beats me why this history is not compulsory reading in our schools. Perhaps it is because education here has a strong political agenda. It remains a tool to propagate and perpetuate political and economic policies of the government. What a pity! And what else is “Interlok” all about ? What a shame! But those who have read South East Asian history know that its treasures are numerous!

So much of this history is turbulent-- waves of migration, wars, conquests, subjugation, depopulation, under-development, colonialism, cultural hegemonism and  economic domination. But make no mistake. South East Asia has a real and formidable indigenous history. There is no finer example than the magnificent civilization of the Khmers centred around the fertile flood plain of the Tonle Sap lake, the Siem Reap River and the mighty Mekong River. These three distinct but interconnected  water systems act as a huge natural hydraulic mechanism that stores and discharges live-giving waters in abundance for wet rice cultivation.

The Khmers worked their sophisticated, stunning and splendrous magic here for close to half a millennium. From the eighth to the thirteenth century the Khmer civilization with Angkor Wat as the pinnacle of her agricultural,  artistic and architectural achievements was the Rome of South East Asia. No other civilization came close. Even the Bumiputra hero, Mahathir Mohamad  found it hard to resist the form, grace and beauty of Khmer architecture-- the Petronas Twin Towers reflects  the architecture of Angkor Wat, the jewel in the crown of all the temples in the Angkor complex.

I had the pleasure and privilege of travelling to Angkor and Kampuchea on many occasions. Both her ancient and modern history ( Pol Pot and Co ) had always and still fascinates me. I had over the years read books, articles and features on the Khmers-- Pierre Loti, D.G.E Hall. Chandler and Short. And then on a day, a bend in a muddy brown river, a wooden landing platform, graceful hand-made boats moored to it,  coconut palms in a cleared patch, a cluster of houses on stilts and leading away into the distance, green fields of rice paddies, brown faces, sarongs and loosely tied headgear. They called it Kompong Snang or something. “My God! I have been here before!”, I said to myself. It could be anywhere in Malaysia but perhaps more so in the east coast. Kelantan or Trengganu.

And here just like in a Malay kampong the welfare of the community was more important than the achievements of an individual. For  without communal work wet rice cultivation was doomed to fail. In ancient Angkorian  society the division was even more pronounced between those who grew the rice and those who did not. In these Kompongs  there were no kings, no nobles, no high officials. But everyone here shared an ambition-- to be “rescued from the mud” and become an elite of sorts. Few succeeded. Perhaps a tenth of the toiling masses. They became the clerks, artisans, master craftsmen, artists, dancers, concubines, high officials of state and priests together with favoured royal servants, their relatives and soldiers of a sophisticated civilization.

In this equivalent of Rome, the center of a veritable South East Asian Empire, as in pre-Islamic Malaya, ancestor worship was the glue that kept communities, clans and families together. This ancestor worship was markedly different from the ancestor worship of the Chinese centred on strict rules of naming newborns, maintaining surnames  and of keeping genealogical records. Since genealogies were not maintained, all the ancestors were collectively termed in Khmer society as “Nak Ta”. They were the symbolic ancestral spirits of all the people in a particular place who by dying in that place came to pervade and patronize the very soil of the place.

In these ancestral places, the “Nak Ta” were benign, tame and could be spoken to. And those spirits in the forests or in abandoned places were thought to be malignant and powerful. “Nak Ta” in  the form of good collective ancestral spirits were  often asked to assist and intercede. If all this sounds familiar with bomoh culture, it is one and the same. And once the believe in “Nak Ta” pervading and patronizing the very soil of a place has firmly taken root,  the continuity of habitation and continuity of sacredness of the land became the twin pillars (twin towers?) of much of South East Asian including Malay society. The “Balek Kampong” phenomenon involving millions in modern day Malaysia is an  expression of these twin pillars.

So the French are right after all! The more things change, the more they are the same! And our Bumiputra brothers ( No! not those of the new Khir Toyo type immigrant ) springing from the soil that was inhabited, pervaded and patronized by their  collective ancestral spirits, the “Nak Ta”, are reluctant to accept that many generations of Chinese and Indians now lay buried in this land. And many more will be buried here but these ancestral spirits will never be “Nak Ta-ed”.But why?

Perhaps “Nak Ta-fication” is a process similar to beatification in Catholicism-- a long, painstaking and cumbersome process which will no doubt include showing proof of a miracle or something close to it. Like showing how, as if by a miracle, Chinese and  Indian genes are changed into Malay DNA!

Till then it is comforting to know worship of ancestral spirits is alive, well and powerful. And  now we know where and how it all began!

THERE ARE ALWAYS WARNING SIGNS

By Howl Pillai

There are always warning signs when bad things are going to happen.                                                       
Some 2 weeks ago there was one such ominous sign--direct, clear and unmistakable.It was reported in our leading newspapers that the Chief of Police of the far -flung province of Papua,Indonesia had had enough.He took a hard stand on what else but penis enlargements.Candidates who had resorted to this local ironman procedure would no longer be recruited into the police force. A sociologist in Jakarta explained that native males use the leaves of the "gatal-gatal" plant to form a holster of sorts to house their very personal arms. The aggravating environment does the rest. We must take note that in their society a puffed up ego means a heck of a lot. 

Clearly the Chief of Police was a hard man himself if not a genius. "Gatal-gatal  translates accurately to 'itchy-itchy' and it is a warning sign he did not miss. Not one to rest on his laurels he probed further. He was then able to put all the ominous signs together and see the danger : A puffed up ego,a dangerous loaded weapon and an aggravated environment are a potent mix.  Unfortunately, we here, failed to heed the warning signs that the Chief of Police there so ably deduced and reduced. 

A few days later, in a gentle, leafy and quiet residential suburb of Shah Alam a 14 year old unarmed kid was shot fatally by a policeman for 'impersonating a criminal'. The world over, tensions always rise dramatically when a police officer of one ethnic group uses deadly force on a suspect of another ethnicity. So the ensuing tension, hue and cry was rather puzzling. The deadly use of force this instance, for want of a new term, was a "same ethnicity shooting ". Again there were signs that something nasty like this was waiting to happen.                                                                                                  

For years now the most dangerous places for a Malaysian to be on is our world class roads and our police lockups. A close third- never be on a overnight Express bus. I suspect more people die needlessly in these places than anywhere else. And I do not want to splash cold water on anyone's hopes but if you are a suspect held under remand in a police station, your chances of coming out alive,unscathed and smelling of roses is as good as our ex-PM keeping his mouth shut for just a day. 

And Guantanamo is kids stuff. There they waterboard you; here you are just drowned  in your own spittle and then a report is made out that every attempt was made to save you from the pail of water you accidently fell into. If given a choice Kugan's mum would have happily agreed to send her son to the Carribean. After all it is better to be in Guantanamo than to be no-more .And again there were clear and unmistakable signs.

Suspected criminal after suspected criminal was dying in police custody the past many years. At first the gullible public suspected malnutrition if not self induced starvation. Others advocated a racial disposition to depression leading to suicide. And still others entertained the possibility of negligent food poisoning. Perhaps mango lassi served in lockups is 3 days old. Once a serving PM no less, even suggested the possibility that some of these detainees had punched themselves blue and black to gain the sympathy of their jailers or worse still to accuse them falsely and put them in trouble.

Neither the cabinet nor the minister responsible ever extended their regrets in such cases. I can well imagine an old and retired senior police officer say:" You don't set out or intend to use lethal force.You want to beat them to within an inch of their lifes. That to make them confess. A conviction based on forensic science  and detailed police work is time consuming and difficult. Susah ! Of course on certain days we get our measurements all wrong by an inch or so ". And there were still more signs.

In a blaze of publicity high ranking police officers visited the scene of the fatal shooting. Co-incidentally on the same day Goldman Sachs traders were being grilled and questioned by a US Congressional Select Comittee. And Jay Leno in his "Tonight Show" a few days later had this to say about the hearings ( or is it herrings ? ) in Congress: "See, I told you, criminals always return to the scene of the crime ".Meanwhile  high ranking police officers assured the public at large and the grief stricken mother that they would personally ensure investigations are properly carried out and there will be no cover up.

Accordingly  a Committee made up of the proverbial Tom, Dick and Dirty Harry was constituted to investigate Dirty Harry who by chance happens to be the father-in-law of Tom and the cousin of Dick. And besides the public had long forgotten that a camel is actually  a horse designed by a committee. Meanwhile the public at large is still awaiting  with quiet desperation to see whether judge-fixers and fixed-judges will ever spend at least a day in a police lockup sipping stale mango lassi. And now there are new and more frightening signs.

Just yesterday, an off -duty middle-ranking police officer walks into a pub in the suburb of Puchong. He takes a seat and coolly prepares his 'joint' in full view of the other patrons. Someone picks up enough courage and expresses his consternation. Mr.Cop stands up. He unbuttons his shirt and flashes his gun still sitting pretty in its non-gatal-gatal holster. As I said there are always signs. And by the way if errant Mr. Cop is ever found guilty by a disciplinary committee should he be fired, discharged or shot ?

Hell at your doorstep if Gaddafi leaves.

There is a saying "better an old enemy than a new friend" and for Europe it could not be further from the truth when applied to Gaddafi.

There was a time when this man Gaddafi actually financed terrorists, from the Japanese Red Army to other  terror networks and reigned terror on the world over.

Why the bombing of the Pan American Jumbo over Scotland was Gaddafi's doing, the Moro Rebels were financed by Gaddafi, if you do not believe that ask his good friend Mahathir, he may pretend not to know.

However over the years and especially after Reagan went after this man with a real intention to kill him did he sober down, and  realised that the way he was going was dangerous for both him and Libya and he did turn over a new leaf or at least so it seemed.

He made a truce with the British, he surrendered the Pan American bombers his own men to the Brits, and then relations began to cool. The British were being awarded  huge contracts in Libya, they returned one of the bombers serving time in British jails under the pretext that he was terminally ill, and for doing that got more goodies from the Brits.

Having Gaddafi as a friend was good for an ailing British economy, but overrunning his country and going for the spoils of war is even a better option and that is what Britan is after now.

Will they get it?

They will successfully be able to drive Gaddafi out of Libya, they can't in the least bit be bothered where he lands up, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Cuba or even for that matter Venezeula, who cares the wealth in Libya is worth exploiting and that is what the British and their allies France included are after - the spoils of war.

The Chinese and Russians have let Libyans down or maybe not, but in allowing the Americans, the British, the French and the rest the 'freedom of establishing' countries a "no fly zone" and not spelling out how it should have been implemented - they sold the Libyans.

Is it a no fly zone that these allies are establishing or is it all out war from the skies, they are now arming the rebels on the ground, and providing them with air cover to attack Gaddafi, it is a tough battle for Gaddafi, they expected all Libyans to join the rebels, but no Libya is split in two and Gaddafi's peoples are fighting too.

Those who were not fighters have become fighters, and so what happens at the end of this trouble.

The rebels will win, but they do not want outside interference, they have said so, others in the rebels ranks will see it as necessary and  at least for the interim that will cause a split among the ranks.

Those from the Gaddeafi camp will seek revenge, they'll want their own ways, they may be forced to align with Al Qaeda, Bin Ladin is already grinning, his forces are ready to jump into this mess,and in a mess like this the guerrilla group is triumphant especially when they have in their arsenal suicide bombers.

Libya will be taken over by the Al Qaeda, the Muslim brotherhood is aligned to them, and then at the doorsteps of Europe one will find the all powerful Al Qaeda aligned with the Great Holy Islamic  Empire headed by Iran ready to strike Europe.

Libya will be the launching pad from whence they'd plot and attack Europe with all fury, killing man woman and child in the name of God is very Al Qaeda and that is what will happen. Europe is full of disgruntled and dissatisfied Muslims, and after all Europe is just across the Mediterranean. Libya becomes for now the ideal launch pad.

All Europe must be prepared to go this way, if they intend to intervene in Libya, and that is the only way it will go.

Listen to Ahmadinejad if you haven't yet, listen to him carefully when he talks if you haven't yet,  wait for his successful test  of his own nuclear warheads. its very unclear now but the nuclear clarity will come soon, he has the missiles to fire them as far as the USA, he has a great friend in North Korea who is kind of  related the Chinese, who in turn are kind of related to the Russians.

The cold war is back and it is hotting up, looks like there will be  nothing cold about this war when the time comes.

Where Gaddafi goes is nobody's concern, but will Malaysian toy with the idea? I hope not.

The BN is guilty of criminal intimidation - nothing less.

Anwar persecuted

Speaking to Malaysiakini on the videotape allegedly depicting a leading politician in a compromising situation with a sex worker, Bishop Paul Tan said: "If the authorities do not take action against those responsible when laws are flagrantly flouted, then they are engendering a situation where fair is foul and foul is fair."

Like we said before having sex between two consenting adults is no crime, it may be  morally wrong, it may be a Shariah offense  and to  be one - a Shariah offence that is,  I believe it has to fulfill certain conditions, so whether it is Anwar with Rosamh on the DVD or not it does not concern anyone but the two adults on the DVD.

That it is not Anwar has been made clear.

On the other hand those who produced the video are criminals, it is a crime to produce pornographic videos and this from what has been said so far is porno, one of the three in this episode said, he is seen on the video because he was there and he knew about its production, so there is a suspect here.

Filming the video for viewing by others is also a criminal offence, and we have a 'criminal lawyer' purportedly saying the informer should not be charged.

Yes, if he was an informer he should not be charged, but is this guy a "Datuk," an informer or an accomplice in a criminal act? From what he has done and said so far he is a suspect for the commission of the crimes stated above.

When you take such information in your possession and ask others to do what you want them to do with an "or else condition" for your own ends then that is blackmail, and blackmail is a criminal offence, so you have another crime here.

Then as in the case of Chua Soi Lek, I have said it many times, the police have to work with utmost urgency to get those who made the tapes, because that is a threat to National Security. And any threat to National Security is serious threat.

A vyr senior cabinet minister -the health minister, and now the leader of the opposition, both could have been blackmailed by foreigners for their own benefit. I suppose the IGP is too dumb to see this, or is it because those who produced these DVD's are from the government itself, because if it is not then one wonders why, why on earth is this being allowed to continue unchecked, is this being done by those in government itself? Because if it is,  that will explain why the Police are more interested in non criminal happenings and allows the criminals off, as the criminal offence is targeted at certain people the government is not comfortable with.
 
Moreover in the case of Chua Soil Lek the sexual act  is a crime although it involves two consenting adults because in Chua's case there was oral sex, and Chua admitted it was him on tape, so you have the former minister of health and the present President of the MCA caught in a criminal act and let off without any charges being brought against him, and like sodomy oral sex is an offence here in Malaysia, so why is Chua not charged, is this not clearly a case of selective prosecution by the AG and selective persecution by the government?  This blog is not saying you have to charge Chua, far from it, it asks the question why is it so selective on the part of the Attorney General? Well it certainly is criminal intimidation of Anwar.

This selective process in itself is a crime,a nd those who discriminate and selectively charge shoudl be brought to justice.

Well it certainly is a case of criminal intimidation, and we all know why, this BN government is afraid of Anwar, it is so scared that Anwar will turn the tables on them.

This is sheer criminal intimidation, and they are after Anwar no matter how ugly they look, they want Anwar out, they are after Sarawak they must win it no matter how ugly what Taib has done, Sarawak must be BNs and Anwar must be silenced for good.

I hear it every morning, I go for my hill walks the Malays are talking again, and when the Malays talk something is brewing, they are getting fed up with these acts of criminal intimidation, this vulgar politics, these fix the man type of thing, many UMNO people seems to be falling out,  when you intimidate Anwar you intimidate a good portion of Malaysian citizens and that too is a crime, especially when it is done to prevent the people, Anwar included, from exercising their constitutional rights, we are not fools try fooling us again, you'll ahve to come out with something more sophisticated, and it has to be very sophisticated because we too are very sophisticated, its a different generation, not war babies of 1969, whom Najib's father managed to muscle.

The Muftis have come out with the most positive of statements, the call by 
former Perlis mufti Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin to put an end to  lewd and gutter politics in the country, as it not only projects a poor image of Malaysia but sets a bad example for the younger generation.

Following Asri' s lead a coalition of Islamic NGOs have come out and claimed the current situation where there is widespread slander involving several prominent people would only result in confusion among the Muslim community.

In a statement today, Azmi said if the muftis were to take a firm stand on this matter, it would indicate to the people that they should not be easily manipulated by prominent parties who do not seem to conform to Islamic teachings when it comes to slander.

The Malaysian Consultative Council for Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism and Taoism (MCCBCHST) has described the recent emergence of a sex video as slander designed to humiliate Anwar Ibrahim.

In a statement signed by president Reverend Thomas Philips, the council urged the government to take swift action against 'Datuk T', the code-name used by three individuals who have admitted to being behind the release of the video.

"Their aim in publicly humiliating (Anwar Ibrahim) the Opposition Leader of Parliament offends the sensitivities of decent people, no matter to what race or religion they belong," the statement said.

"Over the few decades, we have been treated to and numbed by numerous financial scandals, social scandals and political scandals committed by those supposedly dedicated to leading our citizens through 'leadership by example'.

"This latest video clip to slander a fellow Malaysian, albeit a Muslim MP, is viewed by our members with great concern and revulsion."

Now the stage is being set and this is something we do not want to do, this blog has stressed time and again that what happened in Egypt and the middle east does not have to happen here, it must not happen here, but look who is trying to  force  the rakyat to.

Now the entire spectrum of the  religious  community have spoken.

This looks like someone is waiting for some kind of action with which he can set up another National Operations Council, remember that the "NOC," like father like son?

 "This is a dangerous pass, one in which people, especially the young, will think that there is one set of rules for a privileged few and another set of rules for the rest," Bishop Dr.  Paul Tan SJ.

The Trio (EXPOSED) have been around for a long time

Pic taken at Carcosa Sri Negara from left: R.Thamby Rogol, SK - anglicised Eskay and Shuib

I am sure you recognise the  three fellows in the picture, ya you are right it is the 'T' unfortunately at the time this shot was taken they could not be given a Datukship, but they are a Trio alright.

According to this  3 stooges script, one of the 3 latest stooges called the press to Carcosa Seri Negara, the former residence of the British High Commissioner, a building given to the  British by the Tengku on independence,  but taken back from them by well, none other then Mahathir Mohammed, the move was planned by him and Anwar his deputy was to execute it, he always made somebody else do his dirty work, check his history and you'll see a lot of it.

For instance if you were to take Musal Hitam and hold him to his word he will have some good stories about Mahathir, ask him the Sabah elections the time when Harris Salleh was defeated.

Mahathir guessed the people in Sabah were going to dump Harris and did a Houdini, that is the disappearing act, he went overseas leaving the baby to Musa.

Harris tried to go around the elections by  getting the Governor to appoint him the Chief Minister and he would appoint a few assemblymen that way he'd have a majority,  Musa would have none of that, and Musa insisted the  results be respected.

Mahathir came back and told some people he'd not have a Christian as CM of Sabah, there are journalist who will vouch for this, and after some time managed to get Pairin out of the CM's post. That will explain why Sabah has this rotating system of CM, it is the only state, he may get Najib to try that in Sarawak after Taib's defeat soon.

I would urge NGOs to go to Sarawak for this elections it is going to be dirty, very very dirty, and that is why this latest Anwar episode.

The police are  keen on investigation as to who is on the DVD, but is that the issue here?

Najib has urged the police to investigate in that direction too. And why? Finish Anwar.

It has already become common knowledge that the three stooges became a laughing stock even before the Thamby came out and identified  the whole group, this plan failed and it failed miserably, the public are not buying this story. Some Malays are already saying this is not the work of Malays, it is  some people who are not Malays but are allowed to call themselves Malay that are doing this. One even asked me, "is Thamby Malay? Where got Malay name Eskay? But got SK Ubaidullah, he is a gentleman he never said he is Malay, he said he is Indian."

The Thamby's role in this is revenge, the Thamby was being groomed by the Mamak, his country man for higher office, when the old lady in Melaka approached Anwar first on the alleged rape of her granddaughter Anwar was so shocked, he was in disbelief, and knowing the relationship between the Thamby and his boss, Anwar directed her to Guan Eng, that is a "Top Secret," on a no favours request.

Now that the entire nation was mocking this Trio pictured above,  another plan had to come into action, in the first place this was not supposed to be the strategy, but because the judge in the Sodomy 2 case decided that the plastic bottle and the good morning towel could not be used as evidence and,any evidence obtained from it was non admissible, it had ruined the case of the prosecution in Sodomy 2 and that is why this "sex scandal' was brought up by this "Trio, " it was plan B and plan B was bad, it failed, B must have stood for Bad, and who their masters are is everybody's guess.

So the next best thing in desperation was to get the judge to reverse his own judgment, something never before done in either commonwealth or world judicial history. Is this judge working alone?

In this particular case the issues at hand are; The making of the film - it is a criminal offence, the screening of the film it is a criminal offence, the sexual act in itself is no crime, sex between two consenting adults is no crime, a Syariah offence, yes but not a crime in our laws, if it were a crime, the PM would have long been jailed, Chua Soi Lek would have been jailed, DPV would have been jailed, and,  oh! the numbers would have been so high, my gardener would  have found it easy to become PM.

Evidence is so clear, Eskay has admitted to making of the film, Eskay has screened the film for others to view, he has threatened Anwar that he will reveal it if Anwar does not bow to his wishes, that is blackmail another crime, and why are the Police not working along those lines?

Had it been a PKR man who exposed this he would have been tortured and killed and they'd call it suicide. Well there was a case and Lim Guan Eng was jailed for it, remember it?

Why has the PM come out and made statements regarding this investigation implying that it is the person n the tape who should be identified,  on this assumption alone one would think the PM has had a hand in this whole operation.

This blog has said it on more then one occasion; IT'S ALL SARAWAK!!!!

It is the Iranian Shite Holy Islamic Empire in the making.

Image via Wikipedia

The upheaval in the middle east is not pro American as many would like to believe, its more like the Holy Roman Empire, except that it is not Christian this time, it's Ilam, and instead of the Pope the Arabs will have the Ayatollah, Al Azhar  will be replaced with Tehran and maybe a council of Ayatollahs.

The role of Charles Martel or Charles the hammer will be taken by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

That the Americans see this as an opportunity to stir confusion and take sides and hope to colonialise the Arabs with the current situation, what is really stirring the Arabs is a great deal of anti American sentiment driven by years of neglect of the common Arab by the governments in the region.

Arab governments have long thrived on the ignorance of the masses, an issue that is rather is not too far from what the BN government has and is doing.

Keep the ordinary man in the street ignorant, do not allow him to think, think for him all the time, so that he is completely dependent and you rule  the roost, this was the Mahathirian   ideology, those who could think, those who could question were purged, then we he appointed a successor we saw the results of this ideology..

This ideology is deep rooted in our education system, when school boys refused the book interlok they were sent to police stations, University students are so dependent on lecturer notes the great majority are not familiar with churning out their own, the ability to think and differ is not there, in fact in this system you can't differ it is a mortal sin to, students learn from the notes of the lecturers and that explains the quality of our University graduates.

In government service it is no different, no one thinks, UMNO thinks for them, and with UMNO filled with Malaysian graduates you will appreciate the current situation in the country. Why,  the don't think ideology is even practiced very high up in UMNO the hierarchy and that explains the stupid statements coming out from many a minister.

The problem is in the middle east is a Shite/Sunni problem, the Shite are on the rise, the Muslim brotherhood for instance is very Shite inclined, the problem in the Baath Socialist state of Syria is Iran inspired, Iraq will soon be under complete Shite control, there will be Sunnis in the cabinet but the Shite will rule the roost, the time has come for Persian greatness.

All Muslim nations will be under the influence of Tehran,  and sooner or later that will include Malaysia.

In Malaysia the Shite are treated with great suspicion, in Klang a Shite Mosque is not identified such, their faithful have to conduct their prayers discreetly in the confines of the Shite Mosque, and I dare say many a Malay living in Klang is  not aware of this Shite Mosque, it is situated in a locality where there is no Muslim resident. In fact if in new York the Government did that to Mosque the entire Muslim world have protested, and I do not think that is the way to treat Shite Muslims.    

If the Iranians only knew.

So you see it is not an American problem, it is a problem for the Americans and in that sense it is an American problem.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will be the grand prize, but to get at the Saudis the Iranians know they have to get rid of the Royalty, and the Iranians are experts at that, they did their own Shah, Mohammad Rezā Pahlavi on 11 February 1979., so no one in the Sunni world actually needs to teach them how to do it.

The Shite despise such rulers in fact, in the type of Islamic republic they have in mind there will be no such rulers, no monarchy and the leaders of the state are the clerics.

The Iranian plan  according to my friends Trabulsi and Omrani both in Libya is to convert all of Islam to Shite and this Arab revolution is what they the Shite of Iran have termed the revival of true Islam, a Renaissance of a kind.

After the Arab revolutions they will focus their energies on transforming the Arab world, following which the Islamic states of  the former Soviet Union, and South East Asia will just follow, it will be the natural course of events.

The Iranians foresee problems with Turkey and Xian Jian in China, these will be their greatest challenges.

The Malaysian government has to be careful in its treatment of the Shite, and people of other religions, as in Egypt and elsewhere in the Arab world the Arabs know what their options are, and they choose to go that way rather then suffer  under repressive and corrupt regimes.
