2. After 9/11 Bush was reported to have said, “I don’t know why they (the Muslims) hate us”.

› Bungalalang on HARAM HALAL

3. Later on answering his own question, Bush declared that “they hate our democracy. They hate our freedom”.

4. Since then more and more reasons have been suggested as to why Muslim individuals are prepared to tie explosives to their bodies and blow themselves up in order to kill Americans. 5. Books have also been written about Islam and Muslims to explain their hatred of the Americans and the West. Much of the blame is placed on the teachings of Islam, in particular that which is concerned with jihad or holy war and martyrdom.

6. There have also been attempts to exonerate Islam and to attribute the violence against the West to the wrong interpretations of Islam by people with vested interest. 7. But the Americans almost invariably refuse to acknowledge that it was their seizure or their backing of the seizure of Palestinian land and their subsequent support of Israeli violence and oppression of the Palestinians which has caused the Muslims to hate the Americans. Each time the Palestinian tried to regain their land, the Americans would ensure that they fail by giving massive support for Israel. It is well-known that they provide financial support to sustain the state of Israel. Every time the Israelis set up settlements and build walls to break up Palestinian families, the US would back it. Israeli intransigence, Israel’s disregard and breaches of international laws, disregard for normal human behaviour America would staunchly back Israel. To the Americans, Israel can do no wrong.

8. All these happened before the attack against the New York World Trade Centre. After that came the “shock and awe” invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq with the loss of life of hundreds of thousands of these people and the total destruction of their cities and countries. 9. Since the invasions the Americans have remained in occupation of these two countries, where American soldiers continue to kill civilians with impunity. Many innocent people have been detained and tortured. Muslim countries which are friendly towards the United States are not spared. 10. The so-called “war on terror” is clearly a war against Muslims. It is enough for a person to have a Muslim or a Muslim sounding name for him to be ill-treated and sometimes detained without trial for years. 11. Only Muslim countries have been attacked or are threatened to be attacked. Non-Muslim countries building nuclear weapons may be threatened but no real action would be taken. 12. So why do they, the Muslims, hate Americans? Is it because they hate democracy and freedom? Only the most stupid can suggest this. They hate Americans and Europeans generally because they aided and abetted in the seizure of Palestine, in the unquestioning support for Israel’s oppression and brutalities, in Israel’s settlements on Palestinian land, and all the other crimes committed by Israel. 13. They hate the Americans because without American support for Israel they, the Palestinians, could have regained their land. As it is they are not even allowed to call their land Palestine. They are just the Palestinian Authority. 14. When they are unable to withstand the oppression and the killing of their people and they hit back their action is not reported as retaliation against Israel’s action. Instead when the Israelis hit with overwhelming force, killing hundreds and thousands as happened in Gaza, they were described as Israeli retaliation against the primitive Hamas rockets which did very little damage. 15. Americans should not kid themselves that they are hated for their democracy and freedom. They are not. They are not hated even for religious differences. They are hated because they join the Israelis in all their brutalities, in their illegal occupation of Palestinian land, in the protection they afford Israel intransigence against the rest of the world. And now of course in their terror attacks against the innocent peoples of Afghanistan, Iraq and other Muslim countries.

16. It is important that the Americans know and admit the true reasons for the hatred against them. It is important because until they do they will not be able to come up with any solution to the present costly war. This war can go on forever because future generations of Palestinians, of Muslims, will never forget the injustice inflicted on them by Americans.

Log in to Reply Rainbow Warrior Bismillahirrahmaanirrahiim RAHSIA KRIS RIMAU (Or not, as Ayahanda Tun sees fit, would not want to burden Ayahanda Tun further to keep my secrets or even ask Ayahanda Tun to take the hit for what Rainbow Warrior has to say – as updated) Greenpeace Ayahanda Tun et al, I hope this message finds Ayahanda Tun in better health. I’m convinced God loves you, Ayahanda Tun, and so do we for the development and infrastructure that you have put in place. Ayahanda Tun may recall my earlier request for help to connect us with Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar so he could help fund our Smart Tunnel engineers to see what can be done for Pakistan. Unfortunately we have not had the time to connect, however, I believe that this fact is no coincidence and that the turn of events is according to God’s plan. From Reuters quoting the web we read Osama bin Laden called on Muslims around the world to help Pakistan flood victims. However, regret to inform, Osama, that in my opinion, YOUR call is not conducive to our cause. People have not forgotten the Twin Towers tragedy in New York. I remember watching the 9/11 horror in Tioman and my poor children missed out on holiday fun because I was overcome with grief at the atrocity that had occurred to our fellow man. I believe Malaysia is a moderate muslim country. It does not behove well for us to be associated with Al-Qaeda, it was bad enough when the world was concerned that terrorists were going through our financial system, this gave us a bad mark and held up foreign investment and repatriation of funds for years; stifling development in those years. Note that surprisingly, just because Singapore is NOT a Muslim country, AMLA checks are apparently less stringent. As told to me by a Chinese born as a Christian but is now a Buddhist “Sufi”, Malaysian Chinese are still lining up at HSBC Suncity on Saturdays with their briefcases full of money, telling the teller to just write what the earlier person wrote for where the money came from. This was very recent so I am wondering why they still do this when our local banks now have foreign currency accounts. Where is their loyalty? The point is, how can we, or any muslim country help Pakistan when everyone will be looking over our shoulder and breathing down our necks perhaps thinking that we’re helping terrorists? Just because we wear muslim clothing and headgear? (Btw could we have this as an accepted dress code for boardrooms please?) Osama, I think that your call for muslims to help is hindering the cause. Unless you tell Al-Qaeda and all so-called muslim terrorists to hand in their weapons, and you yourself give yourself up and explain your involvement (if any) in 9/11 Twin Towers massacre. Did the Bin Laden family own Carlyle Group? Did they help George W. Bush make his first million? Do you know anything about the insider trading? How come USA couldn’t find you all these years if you were using the web, as your IP address would have pointed out where you were? Osama, please ask your CONSCIENCE and tell us WHY you have been in hiding, it appears to have only helped USA’s mission in Afghanistan, details of which are coming to light NOW with the McCloskey case. Your SILENCE will be TELLING. Ayahanda Tun, this sounds better coming from you, but I would not risk your safety, and I KNOW who knows who I am, if anything happens to me I accept it as God’s will. I TRUST in God completely that everything will turn out for the best. And if anyone attacks a moderate muslim country like Malaysia then we know that the attacker is NOT muslim, whatever his name may be. Because even muslims in USA know that a muslim does not kill innocent people. For readers interested to know more, please look for Rumi Say I am You and Omar Faruk Tekbilek’s work on youtube.

Log in to Reply Rainbow Warrior Greenpeace Ayahanda Tun et al, I was watching muslims in USA on History channel last night and was astounded to see a mat salleh firefighter who converted because in the Quran it says that killing a person is like killing all in the land and saving a person is like saving all in the land. My reading of the underlying themes of the Quran as I recall, apart from “Think and Reflect” is “Go through the Earth”. Thinking back through history I noticed that apart from the Crusades (by People of the Book?), every time infidel tribes try to take over a muslim nation by force they end up becoming muslims themselves, e.g. the Mongols and Turks. But then again when a muslim nation tries to take over a non-muslim nation, and then loses the objective and the plot of doing it e.g. Spain, then they get forced to accept other religions e.g. Ferdinand and Isabella and the Spanish Inquisition. Just wondering whether Islam is the fastest growing religion in the USA cos of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Perhaps PEACE is the better solution, eh? Salaam (greenpeace)

Log in to Reply Rainbow Warrior Greenpeace Ayahanda Tun et al In my earlier blog I assumed that Allahyarham Tun Razak passed away due to heart attack. I remember when it happened I was living in TTDI at the time and I thought I overheard my parents say it was so. However, after watching Tun’s biography on History Channel last night only did I know that it was leukemia. Thank you very much Ayahanda Tun for correcting me. All ideas and inspirations come from God and errors from me the mere human. All praises to God that does not sleep and does not forget! Salaam (greenpeace).

Log in to Reply young.lady Dear Tun, As for me, I think that the others hate US because the US is different. And that we are very judgmental. They brings immoral influence to the youngsters, because unlike us, they lead different lifestyles. Then on, the judging goes on and on, all the wrongdoings will be seen as the biggest mistakes ever made until we didn’t (or pretending) see the good side of them. Anything happens at any side of the world (earth quake and such), the US is the first unit to be there to lend hands. More to say, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is the largest transparently operated private foundation in the world which dedicated to bringing innovations in health and learning to the global community. There are many more if I am to count it. War can be ended by first ends the hatred. And it starts by accepting the differences in others. The others believe in something that we are not doesnt mean that they are wrong and we are right. Not to back them up neither solely believe that the US is not right. But they are too, not a total evil. Me myself a Malaysian (Bumi’s) and strongly go against wrongdoings. I just speaks out my mind on what I think is quite unfair to the other side.

Log in to Reply andrewtay parameswara 2 Me ridiculing Muslims? No way Jose! I think i was ridiculing how you guys cry alot about the misfortune of your religion. You guys have only yourself to blame. You guys are not united. There are factions in your religion. Example, Sunni and the Shia in Iraq. Same brothers but fighting against each other. Pathetic! Look at you and wajaperak. both of you cant even agree on the word of Allah. Flawed! Each with different views of Islam. I laughed at that again. You deserve no glory in this era. Try harder the next in the next era. Unlike the West, they are united to push you guys to the edge. Smart, strategic and powerful. I only respect the stronger. No credit for the weak. Survival of the fittest dude. Its mother nature’s policy

Log in to Reply Rainbow Warrior Salaam Tun and all, Thank you for the encouragement, all I can say is insiration comes from God, mistakes come from me the human, so I MUST correct my statement (like I hope that Wajaperak has seen I concur with him that the prostitute that gave a dog a drink of water is from Hadis not Al-Quran – was confused due to it being in Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s translation footnotes). My ustadzs from the Muhammadiyyah and Qadariyah Tariqats have chided me. Our purpose in life is to serve God, indirectly we’ll be serving mankind. I stand corrected on both counts, apologise for any inconvenience caused. All praises to Allah who does not sleep and does not forget! Greenpeace (salaam).

Log in to Reply mazhus Yhg Bhg Tun Mahathir, Please comment on the plan by a church in Florida to burn the Quran on Sept 11 accusing the Quran, islam and syariah for the 9/11 bombing (ref Sunday times Aug 1st , 2010) Hopefully we can alert the whole world about (i) their ignorance of Islam and Quran – islam does not teach us any such acts and religious leaders should be more aware of other religions teachings (islam teaches tolerance and patience and that is why the 1.7 billion muslims are living in peace with the other non muslims). (ii) however the worse part of it, is that the 9/11 affair could very well be an insider’s job (as seen in the video on opening the 9/11 investigation again)- this makes the ‘inside people’ responsible as the worst terrorist of all and worst possible behaviour in mankind – killing innocent people and blaming others for it. The act of burning a holy book can also be considered a ‘terrorist and inhuman’ act. Hopefully Tun can comment further on this and make public your comment so that the world will know the reality of the 9/11 affair and dont fall in the game of the people who would like to discredit Islam at all cause due to the sickness of their hearts (as mentioned clearly in the Holy quran). We are all sick of hearing these unfounded and wild accusations again and again. wasalam and may ALLAH bless and guide you and all of us at all times.

[[So what is recited in his solats only God knows,but as long as he does the postures and prostrations to the Lord the way Prophet Adam SAW and Abraham SAW does it I guess technically it is still in order.The Quran does not explain the technical aspect of the solat]] But how and what does the methodology aspect comes to him?.. That is my bone of contention. [[But if he recites just exactly like the rest of us we will wonder from whom has he received the guidance, Prophet Abraham SAW?Can an anti hadith be our imam in solat berjemaah?How does he perform the Terawith, how many rakaats does he do?How does he perform the EidilFitri/Eidil Adha prayers?When he perform the Haj/Umra who is the prophet guiding him.The Quran does not detail the technical aspect of all these too]] Again..that is why the concensus of the establishment of the four establish Mahzab is the utmost essential..

You can tell the traits of the maladies by the “sound” of it let alone witness them.Mr Parameswara2 you based you observation by logic’s.On the contrary,Islam defies human logic’s..We learn Islam the way the convention states it as it is!!

Moga saudara sudi menerima kisah ini untuk pengajaran kita bersama. Raja di sebuah negeri telah merasa kini tiba masanya untuk beliau berundur.Baginda risau memikirkan siapakah yang layak menjadi penggantinya? Akhirnya baginda bertitah.. “Wahai rakyatku..siapakah yang sanggup mengganti beta memikul amanah yang berat ini”? Yang sanggup menunaikan amanah manusia di siang hari dan amanah Allah di malam hari? Akhirnya bangkitlah seorang pemuda yang menyanggupi..Saya sanggup tuanku..Siapakah nama anda? Zulkifli.. Begitulah saudara Zulkifle.Pantang orang mukmin meminta tanggungjawab tetapi bila keperluan sudah tiba adalah satu kemungkaran bagi mereka yang berilmu untuk menolak amanah..Bila imam baca silap saya malu untuk tegur kerana takut keangkuhan dan takjub diri sendiri akan bermaharajalela dalam diri sendiri.. Tapi..ini tugas kita..Marilah kita bersama memikul tugas ini.. Pedulikan tuduhan dan tomahan grammar le menatang apa le..Itu hanya taktik mereka melemahkan kita..Yang penting adalah isi hujah kita..Cukuplah kerana Allah..dan makna nama Zulkifli??

Log in to Reply andrewtay its the new crusade. They hate muslims for kicking their asses in the last crusade. They used to have a common enemy, the Commis. But then communism died, they need to flex their muscles to show the world who’s in control so they decided “Hey, what about our little Muslim friends? We haven’t bugged them since 1200? Lets poke them!” What Mr.Mahathir said is true. But lets not forget, our government is BFF (best friends forever) with the US! Getting military aid, training with them, teaching their armed forced jungle warfare so they can probably kill more muslims in the southern philippines. Whoa! Sweet as! So everyone is just hypocritical including Malaysians. Seriously guys, why bother making anti-American sentiments where you decide to buy Windows, Coke, McDonalds and Iphones? Or watch HBO and MTV instead of watching KL Menjerit? Or Listen to Eminem and Kenya West instead of listening to Siti Norhaliza? Or play the awesome Starcraft 2 instead of congkak? You just contributed to the death of many Palestine. Congrats geniuses! Stop crying!

Cina adalah bangsa hebat yg kita tak mungkin akan mampu bersaing dgn mereka secara seimbang.bukan saya meremehkan bangsa kita,tapi kita perlu sedar diri.kita bukan bangsa penyembah duit,kita tak mungkin menang bersaing secara setara dgn kaum yg bertuhankan wangringgit.ekonomi bukan bidang majoriti orang kita sebagaimana spiritualiti bukan bidang majoriti dikalangan mereka. saudara wajaperak,saya menganggap golongan antihadis ini hanya lah sebagai penerus helah yahudi.mereka ingin menerima Islam,mereka menunggu Rasul akhir zaman sebagaimana yg dijanjikan dalam kitabkitab mereka.tapi bila Rasulullah s.a.w datang dari bangsa Arab,itu lah yg mereka tidak dapat terima.yg mereka tolak hanyalah bangsa Rasul itu.bukan ajaran nya.hari ini antihadis mendapat jalan tengah untuk mendamaikan hati mereka.terima Al Quran dan tolak Rasul Arabnya.itu saja sebab nya…adapun segala hujah yg berjela-jela yg mereka kemukakan tidak lain hanya lah penafsiran versi mereka sendiri untuk menyokong pendirian mereka. wajaperak,anda adalah saudara saya dan saya bangga dgn kehebatan anda mendebat kemungkaran.semuga Allah Subhanaullahu Ta’ala merahmati anda dan kita sekelian dgn kemenangan.terimakasih Tun.

Berapa banyak Muslima boleh mengatakan bahawa beberapa rakan mereka yang terdekat Kristian, Buddha atau Bangsa Lain. Kawan saya yang paling dekat adalah orang Iranian Syiah Muslima. Ada juga ada kawan Palestin dari timur tengah. Saya juga ada kawan Ismailiyah dan Sunni Muslima. Walaupun pandangan saya nampaknya menentang Islam. Aku jujur dengan kawan saya tentang bagaimana saya merasa benar. Apa yang saya lakukan adalah mendengar apa yang mereka katakan walaupun saya tidak bersetuju dengan mereka. Biar saya katakan seseorang yang peduli pada orang tidak akan selalu berkata hal yang kamu ingin dengar. Kebenaran bahawa anda telah berfikir telah ditapis dan disaring melalui mata Islam. Jika anda ingin menjelajahi pandangan yang lain. Saya menyambut anda untuk meneruskan membaca. kalau tidak, saya tidak mahu membuang masa anda. Pada hari-hari saya lebih muda datang dari Malaysia. Ya, saya proPalestin. Pandangan saya tentang Israeli kerana perang dari Lubnan dan Gaza dari berita Malaysia dan buku saya baca. Bahkan, saya membenci negara Israeli yang membunuh Palestin. Aku bertanya-tanya mengapa ada begitu banyak membunuh dan mengapa Palestninians begitu banyak menderita di tangan orang Yahudi dan mengapa orang membenci orang Yahudi begitu banyak. Aku mulai membaca buku dan perspektif yang tidak pro-Palestin. Lihat, sesiapa pun boleh memiliki pandangan yang melampau berdasarkan maklumat yang ditapis. Anda boleh mengetahui apakah seseorang ekstrimis. Mereka akan menggunakan perkataan seperti itu selalu merupakan tanah Islam. Itu selalu tanah Palestin. Lihatlah sejarah dari timur-tengah pada perspektif yang luas. Ada bukti sejarah bagi kedua saranan. Orang Yahudi milik tanah dan Muslima asli juga layak untuk milik tanah timur-tengah. Hanya orang yang ‘kurang ajar’ (I used the closest term to ‘ignorance’ ) menuntut pandangan pelampau. Mengapa bandar Baitulmuqaddis memiliki nama Yahudi dan tidak memiliki Yahudi atau bagaimana adalah memiliki sebuah bandar yang disebut Kuala Lumpur dan tidak punya Melayu tinggal di sana. Sekarang tentang penderitaan rakyat Palestin. Ya mereka menderita. Mereka telah penderitaan selama 60 tahun. Dalam 60 tahun pasukan Arab sekitarnya telah mencuba untuk memusnahkan Israel. Tun dan lain-lain ingin anda percaya bahawa tanah dicuri. Saya mau bertanya. Siapa mencuri dari siapa? Apakah Islam mula lahir di Israel? Bagaimana Islam tersebar ke Tanah Suci? Agama Yahudi dan christianity ada jauh lebih lama di Tanah Suci sebelum Islam. Mengapa ada beberapa faksi kumpulan Islam dan negara-negara di timur tengah Hizbullah, Al-Aqsa, Hamas, Iran, Syria membunuh warga negara di Lubnan, Eygpt, Israel, Gaza, Syria dan lain-lain. Mengapa tahap membunuh diri antara orang setengah umur di Iran yang tertinggi di dunia? Mengapa Hizbullah memperlakukan seorang pembunuh anak ‘Samir Kuntar ‘sebagai pahlawan? Apa terjadi ke Kristian Maronit di Lubnan? Apa yang terjadi dengan Kurdi di Turki? Apa yang terjadi di Sudan? Apa yang terjadi di bandar Hama di Syria? Mengapa darah orang Palestin lebih terhormat dari kematian orang Sudan, Maronit, Kurdish atau berani saya katakan orang Israeli? Anda hanya mendengar jumlah kematian Muslima. Adakah anda akan terkejut jika saya katakan lebih orang Kurdish tewas dalam operasi ketenteraan baru-baru ini Turki dari serangan terkini Israeli di Gaza? Jika anda tidak merasa sedih bagi orang lain mungkin anda harus bertanya pada diri sendiri jika anda yang damai seperti tuntutan anda Islam sebagai? Perdamaian kepada anda dalam Nama Isa

Log in to Reply Halimsagrod Dear Tun, Let us know what you know about this “Rothschild Dynasty”. They are Jews that decided to change the religion of the Georgian of the Balkan. Since the history was been manipulated, how do we know the Yahudi we hated is the right one. This Rothschild Dynasty created Israel for their own interest and now this dynasty one headed by people like George Soros (one of the fund manager) really had a head on with you during the crisis. They fund wars and rulers. The taxes are the collateral. The own Bank of England as we mistaken that for National Bank of England (like our Bank Negara). They control the debt, the printing of the notes too. Now I am suspicious if they have a hand in our Bank Negara too. The scandal of contract for polymer bank note printing may be linked to these conspiracy where they will flood our country with bank notes that may crash any country economy. If they can do to England what is Malaysia. These are not about Hate only but greed of power. An extract of part of the Rothschild behind the establishment of Israel are as follows: Jewish Identity and Positions on Zionism Some Rothschilds were supporters of the State of Israel, although other members of the family opposed the creation of the state.[16] In 1917 Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild was the addressee of the Balfour Declaration to the Zionist Federation,[20] which committed the British government to the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people. Lord Victor Rothschild was against granting asylum or even help to Jewish refugees during the Holocaust.[16] After the death of James Jacob de Rothschild in 1868, Alphonse Rothschild, his oldest son, who took over the management of the family bank, was the most active in support for Eretz Israel.[21] The Rothschild family archives show that during the 1870s the family contributed nearly 500,000 francs per year on behalf of Eastern Jewry to the Alliance Israélite Universelle.[22] Baron Edmond James de Rothschild, James Jacob de Rothschild’s’s youngest son was a patron of the first settlement in Palestine at Rishon-LeZion, and bought from Ottoman landlords parts of the land which now makes up present-day Israel. In 1924, he established the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association (PICA), which acquired more than 125,000 acres (22,36 km²) of land and set up business ventures.[23] In Tel Aviv, he has a road, Rothschild Boulevard, named after him as well as various localities throughout Israel which he assisted in founding including Metulla, Zikhron Ya’akov, Rishon Lezion, and Rosh Pina. A park in Boulogne-Billancourt, Paris, the Parc Edmond de Rothschild (Edmond de Rothschild Park) is also named after its founder.[24] The Rothschilds also played a significant part in the funding of Israel’s governmental infrastructure. James A. de Rothschild financed the Knesset building as a gift to the State of Israel.[25] and the Supreme Court of Israel building was donated to Israel by Dorothy de Rothschild. [26] Outside the President’s Chamber is displayed the letter Mrs Rothschild wrote to, the then current, Prime Minister Shimon Peres expressing her intention to donate a new building for the Supreme Court. [27] Wallah hu allam Halim

Log in to Reply Zulkiflee Bin Arip Assalamu’alaikum Tun, mohon izin mengulas hati.malaysia dan d.tan… Anda berdua seharus nya belajar budaya berfikiran lurus.anda berdua dan orang-orang sejenis anda sebenar nya tahu membezakan salah atau benar tetapi anda sengaja memilih menjadi lebih yahudi dari yahudi sebenar.kenapa? apa yg membuat anda memihak kpd keganasan yahudi terhadap umat Islam Palestin? the enemy of my enemy is my friend? atau adakah anda “terpengaruh” oleh propaganda yahudi? itu amat tidak mungkin sebab anda adalah kaum oppurtunist yg sentiasa menyebelahi pihak yg “tentumenang”.kalau ada negara Islam yg kuat,d.tan dan s.tan dan kaum nya tidak mungkin akan mempersendakan penderitaan Palestin yg memang terang-terang dizalimi oleh Israil dan Amerika. saya tidak merasa bertanggungjawab menjelaskan kpd anda tentang agama saya.tapi saya inginkan tegaskan disini perbezaan anda dan saya yg tidak mungkin akan ada titik pertemuan sekira nya anda terus mengingkari akal anda sendiri. Islam adalah agama suci yg hanya tunduk menyembah Tuhan yg Esa yg Mencipta alam ini berserta segala isi nya.apapun makhluk lain yg ada hanya lah hamba kpd Allah swt yg tidak boleh kita takuti.umat Islam perlu menunjukkan budi-pekerti yg sangat tinggi terhadap orang lain,tak kira bangsa atau agama.itu peraturan ketat agama Islam. tetapi Islam bukanlah seperti ajaran agama-agama penyembah berhala yg extremis hinggakan jika ditampar pipi kiri,dihulur pula pipi kanan.atau tak sampai hati nak pijak rumput sebab takut rumput mati.atau begitu sayangkan haiwan hingga sanggup cuma makan sayur saja.Islam mengajar kami ke-sederhana-an.kami tidak condong kekiri atau kekanan.tidak zalim dan tidak penakut. Islam bukan agama orang-orang dayus yg membiarkan saja hak nya diganggu-gugat sewenang-wenang nya.ditegaskan didalam Islam orang dayus,orang yg lari dari medan perang,tak akan cium bau syurga.sekali pun musuh adalah amat besar dan kuat,apabila hak kami diganggu,maka hukum nya wajib untuk menentang.sekalipun ular sebesar gunung,seorang Muslim tidak boleh bersa takut.hak mesti dipertahankan. sebab itu mujahidin yg hanya bersenjatakan senapang dan menunggang kuda berani bangkit melawan bala tentera hebat pihak Amerika atau Israil…jauh berbeza dgn anda.anda adalah kaum dayus yg hanya berani bila telah sekuat atau sebesar musuh anda.ketika anda lemah,anda akan tunduk terbongkok-bongkok menyembah musuh anda.bila sudah kuat dan yakin menang,baru anda berani tunjuk besar kepala .itu kah ajaran terbaik agama anda? hati.malaysia,untuk pengetahuan anda,walaupun Islam kami junjung tinggi,tak ada umat Islam yg akan bertindak liar seperti apa yg anda katakan sampai memijak kepala lembu tanda menghina agama lain.adakah yg anda nampak itu benar-benar orang Islam? kenapa tutup kemungkinan yg orang-orang itu hanya sekedar tentera upahan PLA? tapi sekira nya benar orang Islam berbuat begitu,mereka itu pun dangkal akal nya dan layak di didik dgn hukuman setimpal. d.tan,Arab Saudi adalah tanah suci kami.orang kafir seperti anda adalah HARAM menjejakkan kaki kesana.ini bukan dasar rasmi kerajaan Arab Saudi,tapi sebalik nya adalah hukum agama Islam yg termaktub dalam Al Quran yg mengatakan orang-orang kafir adalah najis dan tidak dibolehkan samasekali masuk ke Tanah Suci.saya harap harap anda jangan kecil hati.saya sangat bersetuju dgn kata-kata Churchill yg anda tukil; “Appeasement is like feeding an alligator in the vain hope that he’ll eat you last.” kata-kata ini sepatut nya Tun bawa kpd PM Najib agar berpada-pada dalam memberi makan buaya.jgn lah hak bumiputra ditabur sesuka hati kpd orang-orang asing yg secara jelas telah menunjukkan kebencian yg amat sangat terhadap kita.mereka telah mengambil pendirian permusuhan terhadap kita,seperti yg digambarkan oleh gunse007,d.tan dan sebagai nya. Tun yg kami kasihi,nasib umat Islam wlau dimana pun,sebenar berkait rapat.kita tahu siapa musuh yg menzalami sebahagian saudara kita,tapi kita juga perlu waspada.bukan hanya Palestin,kita bangsa Melayu juga boleh mengalami nasib yg sama. semuga Allah panjangkan umur Tun dan isteri dgn kesihatan yg sempurna untuk terus menanam jiwa patriotik dan mendidik anak bangsa kita.terimakasih Tun.

Log in to Reply non partisan Apabila manusia berkuasa, mereka tidak nampak dan memandang kecil “collateral damage” dari perbuatan mereka. Hukum “keseimbangan alam” zalim mendapat zalim, licik mendapat licik dan ganas mendapat ganas. Amerika melalui proses dalam kitaran tamadun mereka. Di Malaysia ini kita pun dalam peringkat satu kitaran. Malangnya “The Old School” dalam dunia politik masih ditakuk lama. Taktik lapuk, kaedah lapuk, manifesto lapuk masih dijadikan modal. Gelombang desakan perubahan mahukan “order yang lebih adil dan ikhlas” gagal diterjemahkan oleh warga politik baik Parti Pemerintah mahupun Parti Pembangkang. Paling merbahaya adalah gelagat pembangkang,Parti Chauvinist proksi Singapura(biadap) dan fahaman radikal anti Islam dikalangan bukan Islam. Sebagai contoh perangai biadap mereka yang diberi mandat di Selangor boleh mencetuskan gelombang baru yang mungkin tidak dapat dilihat dengan mata kasar. PRU12 gagal difahami oleh ramai “old school” bahawa generasi “new school” sudah bosan dan mangli dengan “collateral damage” yg tidak kesudahan. Malah, boleh didrafkan SOP (standard ops procedure) sifir 3 langkah dihadapan untuk menjangka strategi dan taktik licik golongan seperti ini. Tahniah kepada mereka kerana gelojoh membuka warna sebenar secara rasmi melalui ujian pasca PRU12. Menyerang hak melayu sadalah satu kesilapan walau atas dasar apasekalipun dalam konteks Malaysia. Namun menyerang Islam dalam pelbagai bentuk halus adalah satu pelaburan masa hadapan yg lebih bahaya kepada golongan syok sendiri ini walaupun dinyatakan atas dasar niat super kemanusian dan keadilan mulia(telunjuk berkait). Jadi mungkin di masa depan, senario yang sama berlaku di Malaysia. “I DON’T KNOW WHY THEY HATE US” dari mulut mereka yang syok sendiri ini. 1Malaysia , Berjuta hati dan cara berfikir. Jangan lupa majoriti “silence” yang merendah diri sedang memerhati secara rinci dan kalkulatif. Maaflah kalau komen saya begitu simple dan santai tanpa “argument” berjela2. from your muslim malay son “self sustain & no subsidy from day 1 still I’ll say “Tun” did a great Job for Malaysia”

Log in to Reply rarunasalam Sdr. Zulkiflee Bin Arip tolong saya memahami maksud perkataan “kafir” ? you like your idol like to spin what others say, but yourself mislead with your conflicting statement. If you per your statement state that Islam respects other believes -then it’s only appropriate to lose the term “non-believer”. Why say you respect people of other faith in one breathe, only to then hit below the belt by calling them non-believers. Secondly, you call me mini Bush…on what context do you refer to me as that? It will be akin to me calling you a Fascists…without me listening to your comments nor taking the effort to understand your sentiments. On saying that however, I think I would be more accurate to call you and Tun Mahathir a fascist as opposed to you refering to me as “mini-bush”. And before Tun Mahathir’s devotees get enraged for me refering to him as Fascist – pls go check the correct meaning to the term…it is not an insult but refers to a person’s way of thinking or ideology they subscribe to. don’t make the same mistake when people got upset when paul Keating refered to Dr. Mahathir as recalcitrant…meaning stubborn…which people just went off their marbles instead of actually understanding the context of it’s reference.

Log in to Reply blastwave Dear Honourable Dr M, Salam dari sebarang tambak. I fully agree with your analysis. The real issue is not about the truth as what you have laid them out here. I firmly believe that many people who are discerning enough to find out the truth are already aware of these things that you spoke about. The issue is with the American people, whom, pardon my language, appears to be blinded by indifference, or to put it bluntly, being nonchalant about the kind of information diet that they get on a daily basis from networks like Fox News. Young Americans seem to be, or so it is made out to be in the media, casual about the kind of unjust policies that their government enact overseas, in particular the Palestinian issue. It appears that young Americans would rather occupy themselves with trying to be the next American Idol. In the recent protests in Washington DC in the aftermath of the Gaza flotilla killings, we dont see hoardes of young Americans carrying placards. This phenomena, is not unique to the American society as it is also repeated all over the world. It demonstrates how much uninvolved young people are these days in issues where it concerns social justice. Dont get me wrong, Palestine should not be the only issue to be concerned of. But the Palestine issue has evolved beyond just itself. Palestine represents a regression of humanity- here we are in the 21st century, but there we have a draconian almost middle-age like treatment of mankind subjected upon a weak people by stronger forces. The irony of it all is that it took the demise of 9 lives on board the flotilla for the world’s attention to be focussed on the plight of people who are suffering. Someone will have to apologize for this inhumane treatment of the Palestinians, one day, as much as we apologized for the holocaust. I pray that the day will come sooner rather than later. Kind regards.

WHY NOT SEND MUSLIM STUDENTS HERE TO PAKISTAN SO THAT THEY CAN BE TRAINED AS SUICIDE BOMBERS.” I am assuming that u are referring to the Malay students that the government are sending for further education in the USA. Why should’nt they?, The Malays have got nothing against the American people we know the American public has been misinformed if not ill informed about the going on in the world by their government media where its not a secret that everybody knew is controlled by the Jews. Further more by sending Malaysian students there, they might learn to build a Nuke bomb which is much better than being a suicide bombers…:) “IF YOU MUSLIMS HATE THE US SO MUCH THEN DON’T GO THERE AND STUDY! GIVE WAY FOR OTHER RACES.” Like I explained above, we dont hate the US people and while the Malay students were there they would explained to the Americans about the truth and that is why now Islam is the fastest growing religion among the Whites and Latinos in America and hopefully when most American have become Muslims, the middle east crisis will be the things of the past. As for the other “races” the government do send other races on scholarship to study in the US. Unfortunately there are students of other races if not all who behave like a “pariah” like you, not only will they distort the truth about Islam, they also distort the truth about Malaysia which will later add additional problem in Malaysia. I dont doubt that u are a true crusader because history shows that the reason the crusaders were in Jurusalem were to plunder the wealth there is to be found in those region. I believe the same goes for you as long as there is wealth in this country you would go around crowing that u are a Malaysian. You are more like a parasites than a crusaders..:)

I had also discovered the biggest conspiracy of mankind by the Rotschild Family since 200 years ago. They are the brainchild behind the creation of Israel as their game tools. They caused the hatred among races and religion etc. They established banks and ever willing to fund WARS. They provide cheap loan to the rulers, the more the better. They don’t even need collateral. They are worth all the Forbes top 50 put together. They are having offices in Singapore and even here in Kuala Lumpur. It is so frightening when I was made known of this conspirator.

Rakyat dan pemimpin Amerika sendiri sedang digula-gulakan oleh bangsa Yahudi, dan mereka tidak boleh berbuat apaapa. Mereka fikir mereka (Amerika) negara paling kuat, paling demokrasi, padahal mereka sebenarnya ialah boneka Israel. Kita sekarang perlu menyedarkan masyarakat dan pemimpin Amerika sendiri bahawa mereka sebenarnya sedang diperbodohkan oleh bangsa Yahudi.

Log in to Reply Duyam1968 Salam YAB Tun, Maaf jika pandangan saya berbeza. Kenapa kita selalu menyalahkan orang lain? Adakah disebabkan kelemahan umat Islam (BUKANNYA ISLAM), orang lain telah exploitasinya (i.e. capitalise our own weaknesses)? Adakan ini yang telah dijanjikan oleh Allah, jika kita gagal melaksanakan tanggungjawab kita? Kita mesti sedar sekarang ini. Masalah domestik umat Islam mesti diselesaikan menurut cara yang dilandaskan oleh Allah dan Rasul. Diri kita, keluarga kita, jiran kita, bandar kita, daerah kita, negeri kita, negara kita dan seluruh umat Islam mesti diperbaiki dengan serentak. Kita mesti ingat. Setiap janji Allah ada pra syaratnya. Penuhilah syaratsyaratNya, dan Allah pasti akan tunaikan. Sebaliknya, kita minta Allah penuhi janjiNya tanpa kita memenuhi syaratNya. Kalau urusan anak dan ayah, sudah pastinya anak itu diberi penampar kerena sibuk tuntut janji tanpa memenuhi syarat yang diberi oleh ayah. Sibuk hendak basikal tapi peperiksaan gagal. Kita mesti ingat. Keadaan sekarang tidak akan berubah selagi syaratsyarat Allah tidak dipenuhi. Wasalam.

Log in to Reply dtan Tun, I can tell you why Islamist Terrorists hate Americans. It is because of the concept of ‘Dar al-Islam’. They believe that the epicenter in the middle east belongs to Islam and only when it is achieved will they attain ‘Dar al-Salam’. They don’t believe in sharing holy land and can’t stand the fact that Israel is well able to fight back with America at her side. Palestinians are just a pawn that Islamists use to garner support and pity. Extremist the likes ‘Ahmadinejad’, ‘Mashal’, ‘Nasrallah’ etc know if they can ghettoize Gaza, Lebanon and use terrorist guerrilla tactics they are able to bait Israel into reacting. ‘Erdogan’ is the new addition to the Islamic gangster club. Tun, Israel is the ‘Canary in the Coal Mine’. If the West appeased the Muslim world by turning its back on Israel and Israel was gone. Islamist extremists would find someone else to hate. Let me remind you that you do have a ‘Dar al-Salam’. Its’ called Saudi Arabia. That ‘Benevolent Nation’ is not exactly opening its door to refugees, immigration and/or tolerant of other religions. I don’t see people clamoring to embrace and/or move into Saudi. Even Singapore whom you feel has marginalized Muslims has an immigration and religious tolerance policy that is more open than Saudi. Are you looking at Americans objectively or are your views just as polarized as an Islamist Terrorist? Appease the Islamic world by forcing Israel to capitulate and the problem will go away? Winston Churchill once said, “Appeasement is like feeding an alligator in the vain hope that he’ll eat you last.”

If not because of their ideas (or God’s initiative given to them first?), kuli we become. kuli never rests in a week. Ask those chinese what “ya tou” means and you will know.

Log in to Reply zainal Salam Tun, Kenapa Orang Islam ditindas, sebabnya ialah: Kalau tanya pemimpin Islam mereka percaya tidak kepada Allah dan menurut perintah Allah?. Mereka akan jawab sudah tentu. Tanya lagi kepada mereka adakah mereka patuh akan perintah Allah dan Nabi Muhammad S.A.W.? Mereka akan jawab sudah tentu. Tetapi sebenarnya tidak. Kerana banyak perintah Allah tidak dilaksana. Selagi mereka tidak melaksana perintah Allah selagi itulah mereka akan ditindas. Kekuatan Orang Islam ialah sebenarnya yakin perintah Allah mesti dilaksana bukan dipermainkan. Jangan salahkan orang lain, salahkan diri sendiri. Maka dengan itu perintah Allah mesti dilaksana jangan ragu-ragu dan jangan takut.

Log in to Reply musato Assalamualaikum Tun. Bush kata begitu sebab dia ada ramai pengikut.Salah ke betul ke kira betullah. Macam kita kat Malaysia ni la.Bila suruh letak jawatan sikit,mulalah canang seluruh Malaysia yang pengundi kat kawasan dia berjuta mengundi dia. Apa nak diherankan sangat.Syaitan pun ramai pengikut. Macam cerita yang mungkin biasa kita baca.’Kalu mung nak tunjuk kebolehan berjalan atas air,marilah kita bersembang kat atas udara sambil terbang’. Kesimpulannya nak kemana gok pengikut yang berjuta ramai tu. Bila dah tiba masa generasi masa depan mengambil alih,mereka takkan lupa apa yang orang-orang macam Bush ni dah buat. Terima kasih Tun.

Log in to Reply Zulkiflee Bin Arip Assalamu’alaikum Tun, memang cubit paha kanan,paha kira terasa juga.Iraq,Afghanistan, Chechnya,Bosnia adalah bumi kita yg diserang.Palestin,Kashmir, Xinjiang,Mindanao dan Pattani adalah juga saudara yg dipisahkan dari kita.tapi bukan cuma mereka saja yg Islam.kita pun Islam juga. bukan mereka saja yg tertindas,kita pun tertindas juga.kita pun ada masalah dgn orang-orang asing lagi kafir,yg kehadiran mereka tidak kita ingini tetapi terpaksa kita berkongsi kerakyatan bumi kita. apa guna kita tangisi derita saudara seagama kita di Iraq atau Palestin atau Xinjiang atau Singapura sekalipun kalau kita sendiri tertindas? garagara tentangan orang kafir-asing,tak ada lagi negeri atau kampung yg boleh kita pelihara kemurnian nya ala Semerah Padi.padahal kita merdeka lagi berdaulat.padahal orang-orang kafir ini hanya lah pendatang yg kita beri hak menentang… memang saya setuju penuh kata-kata Tun tentang perang yg di lancarkan Amerika-Eropah-Yahudi terhadap negara-negara Islam.tapi kita juga harus sedar bahwa disini pun bertebaran bush-bush kecil seperti ravi dan hati.malaysia yg tidak harus kita ambil ringan. kalau diberi peluang,beruk-beruk oppurtunist ini pun tak akan teragakagak bertindak ala Bush membantai kita dgn segala senjata yg mereka ada.kafir tetap kafir.mereka tak akan mendiamkan Islam atau umat dalam keadaan selamat.kita harus mengakui hakikat permusuhan ini.Islam dan kafir musuh.kita dgn segala kelemahan,defensif,mereka dgn segala kekuatan,agresif. Islam tidak bermusuh dgn Hindu atau Kristian atau Buddha.Islam tidak bermusuh dgn agama lain.musuh sebenar Islam adalah Kekafiran.kalau orang kristian atau hindu atau buddha menjaga agama nya dgn baik,tidak mengambil mudah agama masing-masing,tidak mempermainmainkan Tuhan yg mereka sembah baik melalui kata-kata atau tingkah laku,dan lebih penting,kembali kesempadan leluhur masingmasing,kembali pula mendalami agama masing-masing,dunia ini boleh aman. malang nya,hari ini orang-orang kafir ini lebih gemar mempropaganda kan fahaman sekular,yg asal mula dicipta untuk meminggirkan agama.sedang agama-agama lain mengambil sikap terbuka dan passive dalam melawan sekularisme,Islam pula,dgn segala kelengkapan Ajaran nya tegas menolak keras pengaruh sekularisma ini.pemikir-pemikir Yahudi,yg sejak dari zaman Samiri,Judas dan Paulus,Darwin,Marx,Engel hingga ke Hillary Clinton memang bertugas sepenuh masa untuk menyesatkan manusia.malang nya sebahagian besar kita buta-akal tidak melihat bagaimana Nabi Musa a.s diubah dan menjadi Krishna dan disembah bertentangan dgn ajaran Tauhid yg dibawa nya.Nabi Isa a.s ditukar menjadi sebagian Trinity yg dicampuraduk kepercayaan Roman.dan ajaran Rasulullah Muhammad s.a.w dijadikan amat sukar untuk dipelihara hari ini adalah juga gara-gara yahudi yg telah banyak berjaya menyesatkan manusia. Tun yg berbahgia,walaupun cubit paha kiri,paha kanan rasa juga sakit nya,kita perlu bersikap praktikal.kita di Nusantara ini pun bermasaalah.bukan saja Amerika dan Yahudi,malah Lim Guan Eng,Karpal Singh,Lee Kuan Yew dan Thaksin pun kalau boleh,kalau diberi peluang mahu mengembalikan 360 berhala ke dalam Kaabah Baitullah. firman Allah Subhanaullahu Ta’ala “mereka ingin supaya kamu kafir pula seperti mereka,sehingga kamu semuanya menjadi sama….” Surah An Nisa ayat 89. ini adalah ketentuan dari Allah Subhanaullah Ta’ala tentang tujuan akhir orang-orang kafir terhadap umat Islam.sebab itu kita perlu sentiasa waspada dan memperbaiki kemampuan kita.Insya-Allah jika kita kuat,Insya-Allah kita lebih selamat. terimakasih Tun.

Mereka pandai LAKUNKAN sesuatu trajedi (iaitu sikap baling batu sorok tangan) seolah-olah kejadian itu berlaku kononnya adalah angkara pengganas atau pihak lawan dari dua Negara yang sedang bermusuhan. Rentetan dari itu berbagai teori meyakinkan dikeluarkan. Melalui kuasa media mereka yang berpengaruh, teori diwar-warkan sehingga akhirnya mengundang campurtangan mereka, Kononnya datang untuk membantu.

Semua negara dipaksa mengikut telunjuk dan ada dengan cara “arm twisting”. Inilah demokrasi yang Bush banggakan….inilah freedom of speach and act yang dibanggakan. Freedom untuk mereka membuli negara lain yang lemah dan menangguk segala kekayaan di negara tersebut.

Log in to Reply Phil H Dear Tun, I beg to differ. The “War on Terror” is not a war on Muslims. It’s a fabricated war to enrich Bush and his cronies. It’s a war purely to generate income for the US military industrial complex. And they used 911 as a pretext to start the war. When the main instigator of a war is its main benefactor, you can see the linkage immediately. I’m of course referring to Haliiburton’s CEO Mr. Cheney. You’re right, there’s also an Israeli connection. They didn’t want to take down Saddam themselves and they had their agents in Wolfowitz and Perl who were the main architects of the “war.” But without the money connection for Cheney and his cronies, there would have been no “war.”

Log in to Reply jerantut Saya hairan kenapa dimana ada konflik mesti ada campur tangan Amerika. Kononnya untuk membantu. Contohnya Korea Selatan dan Utara. Tiba-tiba ada pulak Amerika yang jauh nun sibuk nak tolong K.Selatan. Penah tak terfikir yang bom kapal tu sebenarnya Amerika. Penah tak terfikir yang talibarut dia ada kat setiap negara. Penah tak terfikir yang pengebom berani mati tu sebenarnya talibarut Amerika. Mungkin yang berani mati tu bukan orang dia tetapi mangsa yang diperalat oleh Talibarutnya. Saya tak fikir orang islam akan mengebom di tempat awam. Semestinya ada yang menghasut dan merancang untuk dijadikan alasan. Dan yang melakukan adalah orang2 yang diperalatkan dan dikata atas nama Islam. Modus operandi nya sama dimana2. Mesti ada dua puak yang bertelagah dan Amerika masuk campur menyebelahi sebelah pihak kononnya pengaman, tapi bukan dengan cara aman sebaliknya beperang. Kiralah berapa ramai orang awam mati di iraq sebab salah aim katanya. Saya rasa elok lagi Sadam Husin memerintah. Setiap negara berbeza cara hidupnya. oleh itu hanya kepimpinan rakyatnya yang faham dan boleh membentuknya. Tak bolehlah memerintah Iraq dengan cara demokrasi Amerika. Pernah tak terfikir kenapa setiap ada masalah di negara lain tiba2 ada wakil Amerika bagi sepatah dua kata. Saya rasa Whitehouse ni da macam memerintah dunia pulak. Banyak sidang akbar diorang berkisarkan negara-negara lain. Sokong K.selatan lah, nuklear Iran lah, Kosovo lah, Pemisah Filipina lah, Junta Myanmar lah, Cina lah, afganistan, pakistanlah. banyak lah lg suma dia nk masuk campur. negara diorang ni dah perfect sngt ke. Tak boleh ke Amerika duk diam-diam buat hal negara sindrik. Masalah negara lain biar la diorang selesai sindrik. Nak berniaga buat cara nk berniaga. tak perlulah duit dalam poket clients pun nk tolong kira. dia tau la nk kira sindrik. Kesimpulannya semua konflik2 yang berlaku di bumi ni adalah angkara Amerika samada melalui talibarutnya, perisiknya, atau dengan memberi upah yang tak mampu ditolak. dan talibarut atau penyamar yang diupah ini akan menyamar dan membayar org bawahan untuk buat kerja.dan semestinya orang bawahan ini adalah rakyat yang kesempitan tidak tau apa2 dan diumpan dengan nama jihad. mungkin nmpak mcm cerita filem. tapi apa yang ada dalam filem boleh berlaku di dunia sebenar dan mungkin filem itu sengaja diambil dari cerita sebenar… sekian, terima kasih.. ~peace..

Log in to Reply BlueGene Assalam-alaikum YABhg Tun Dr. M & all chedet’s fellow The fomer President said that the Muslims hate America and the American. But actually and in fact not at all. Particularly the moderate who think that democracy though have an ungly side still deliver benefits to Muslims. Hatred among Muslims mounted after the U.S & Co with of course Israel the Criminal put Palestinian in to catastrophe since many years ago. While United Nations turn to “cave man” and now become UNITED NOTHING. I know the American and its President – even the current President know that the root cause of Muslims hatred on them is caused by Israel. But they don’t dare to confess to the world because America now is under Israel finger. Even in making government decision. Israel lobbyist always around the corner with their AIPAC “protocol” in their briefcase. Joseph Stiglitz also write in his renowned book though America preach democracy, open market economy, deregulation and etc at abroad particularly in Muslims country, the don’t practice it in America because the White House administration grueling to its ugly side that put America into failure. Hatred of Muslims on American is a blind sentiment which at the same time being a propaganda to influenced non-Muslim countries to follow the blind sentiment. America know by being International Terrorist – together with Israel – they can get lucrative profit. Because every cause that occured on this earth rewards an effect which favour them. Killing the Muslim – in Palestin, Afghanistan and etc – means that oil, feul, WMD, army, killing machine and ect is SOLD OFF to the highest bidder of course the Israel.

There is no doubt that the United States is the most powerful nation on earth and there is no country from the G4 who dares to go against them. The United Nation and Nato are just mere puppets to the Americans. We might as well stop paying the membership fees to the United Nation. Only the weak who have no other choice, will strapped their bodies with bombs and blow themselves up to retaliate. At least there is one country who dares to defy the Americans with nuclear attack, North Korea. There is also Iran where I truly have great admiration to their president who is not afraid of the Americans. The president of Venezuela is another tough talking of anti-American policy. I hope Tun will form an alliance with these great leaders and oppress the American government. You can forget about the rich Muslim countries from the Gulf. There are all afraid of the Americans. I hope Tun will take care of your health because we need a strong leader who can voice out the misdeeds of the Americans. Long live Tun.

It plays role of mediator and labeled aggressor as well in countries that inhibit oppressions to its own people, and dictatorial leaderships. They have been involved in civil wars, and being policing trouble-nations. But why must they be there? Is the US the only force around that could mediate all these troubles? Is there another country or organization that the rest of the world would listen to? Being a supporter of the Israel in the latter’s oppression against the people of Palestine must have been seen as a direct aggression against the Muslim and the Islam religion since there is no concrete reason for Israel to behave what it is now. One would ask why are not the neighborhood Arabs doing something to help its brothers and sister across the desert? Surely they are rich and resourceful enough to have show its might to the Israel. Surely they could economically stave this aggressor country fairly easily, no? Why have they stood silence on this? And why not the Jihadians also focused their attention to these countries that have stood silence all this while? What is actually the main reason for the Israel to have acted what it did? I am not supporting the US nor the aggression against the people of Palestine by the Israel, but merely curious as to why these Arab countries are not concerted in its effort to stem the wrath of the Israel and bring peace to this region. Why aren’ they opted to take up the policing role of its neighborhood? OIC should be more vocal in this, and be firm to draw a line on the Israel’s aggression, and be ready to take over the policing role. Salam bahagia.

Log in to Reply truthseeker Salam Tun and fellow bloggers, I dare say all American leaders know why all decent people,especially the muslims hate them, but; 1. these leaders need the jews’ support to be in power and making money. 2. these leaders know most of its citizens are the social-type. Socialtype people likes to deal with feeling, helping others, so by saying ‘i don’t know why…’ that statement will go deep into those social-types people of america. The psychologists are behind this. Remember ‘desert shield?’ ‘to protect the people?’ ‘our duty to protect the innocents..’, ‘war against terrorism..’Wake up the people of America! These leaders are riding on 3. these leaders know most of its citizens are ignorant. The ‘ministry of education’ in USA is not doing a favour to the people…it may sounds funny and illogical, but how come great country like that produces people who are ignorant about what’s going on in this world? they cannot differentiate between an iranian and the sikhs! they thought people with last name ‘hussein’ must be saddam hussein’s relatives, someone with his last name ‘singh’ must be a vietnamese! they dont know where is malaysia, do we live on trees? In my opinion, the leaders purposely want their people to be ignorant, therefore must depend on them (the leaders). 4. Related to para 3, during USSR’s days, the american leaders frightened its people of the russians attacking them, then when the russians became weak, they frightened their own people with muslims terrorism…it will never end cos it works. No doubt those americans who’re educated do realized the truth, but there is still a big number of ignorants…they believed in what their leaders said…’i dont know why…’ the idiots believed him. 5. The malays are mostly a bunch of social people…that’s why when somebody played with their feelings, they’re easily influenced – remember anwar with black eyes? it affected their feelings and the result? malays splited 3 ways during the 1999 election. But the chineses mostly are not sociable type, but the business type, so they supported BN cos BN helped them in their biz. My suggestion – get help from the psychologists!

Log in to Reply Rohil I fully agree with you Dr. Mahathir Mohammad. It is great to see that the United States under Barack Obama has now upgraded the Palestine Liberation Organization Office in Washington D.C. into a General Delegation. This means that the U.S. has recognized Palestine as an independent state. But this is not a full diplomatic recognition like Russia and China have done. I know that it is terrible for the crazy Israel-firsters who are the new breed of fascists. It has nothing to do with Islam which is a good peacefull religion as the stupid evil fascist Dr. Srdja Trifkovic (2002) has written in both his stupid books “Sword of the Prophet” and “Defeating Jihad” (2006). Both of these books are propaganda. They are like Adolph Hitler’s Mein Kamph and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. This from a man who defended a violent Christian terrorist and genocidal maniac named Radovan Karadic and Ratko Mladic. Karadic is on trial by the way. I am so glad that he was forced to “resign” from Chronicles Magazine (he was in fact fired by the great Justin Raimondo who knows that it is Israel and not Islam that is the bigger threat to the World. Also it is AIPAC and not CAIR that is dangerous). I hope that arrest this villian Dr. Trifkovic and charge him for encouraging genocide against Muslims. I hope you do the same as well against this evil Serbian pro-Israeli and anti-Islamic columnist.

Log in to Reply Javedrashid To the lopsided and unjust support of the Zionists I would add Kashmir and Chechnya as major irritants. The Americans encouraged and funded most of the very people who are now labeled as terrorists, some for that matter do deserve the label. In the cold war years the Americans funded most so called right wing religious organizations and called these as the biggest insurance against spread of Communism, this also proved partly right as these organizations along with Pakistan and US funding did stop the communist advance in Afghanistan and even caused the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union , in the process the Americans in support of the extreme Deoband and Salafi schools evoked the Jihad concept and supported the incorrect thesis that all war is Jihad. .Having used the Muslim right and fringe the Americans promptly dumped these as soon as the purpose was served .The Muslim parties and organizations were naive and got hurt in the process . There is a strong under current of religion in American thought , much more than say Europe who also behave as Christians when it matters (Turkeys entry to EU would be an example). The Muslims are disorganized , venal and incompetents governments have made the Islamic world as underdeveloped as Africa. Most if these venal regimes and monarchies are fully supported by the Americans, this is deliberate. The competition to the Americans comes form the Far East and BRICs but nine of these have a philosophy behind there success , there is no International order or system that these countries support or promote , Islam seems to be the only viable challenge to the Christian tradition or thought . The Americans wish to dilute and destroy the Islamic thought process, I have never come across any American initiative to support modernistic and progressive interpretations of the Koran, there have been many in the past and even present.

Log in to Reply prof_ridcully Salam Tun, Once again you’ve hit the nail right on the head. Only the profoundly stupid or the incredibly gullible would believe that Muslims hate Americans for what they are rather than what they, or specifically their politicians, do. It is American foreign policy that is driving Muslim animosity towards the US. The interventionist policies including the so-called pre-emptive wars that the US is waging towards other countries — Muslim, as it turns out — are what’s driving the anger towards Americans. As a matter of fact, a Gallup poll conducted in several Muslims countries found that the majority of Muslims polled admired America, especially its democracy and technology. It’s American foreign policy they hate. It is very unlikely that a Muslim who’s seen his daughter’s wedding party blown to pieces by a US bomb would hate Americans for their “freedom.” [I put the word freedom in inverted commas because Americans are not free from the influence of a Middle Eastern state which has bought off [link to PDF file, WRMEA site] most of their legislators. And most of the conflicts involving Muslim countries stem from the founding of this state which is Israel]. No, the Muslim would hate Americans for killing members of his family for no good reason. Para 16 is so very true, Tun. As long as Americans do not know, or are kept from knowing, the reasons for Muslims’ animosity towards them, the bloodshed will never cease. I read a book written by a Scotsman who walked, walked, across Afghanistan during Bush’s pre-emptive war on that country. Rory Stewart had no problems with local Muslim Afghans, including Taliban, although he was a Brit, had served in the British Army, and of course enjoyed “freedom.” Stewart was treated hospitably in the midst of conflict although his country had many things in common with the Americans and had in fact participated in the invasion of Afghanistan a few months earlier. And this British doctor spent some time in Afghanistan with his wife and four small children. Were Dr Andrew Duncan and his family molested by George Bush’s worst nightmare — fanatical, bearded, wild-eyed, misogynistic Muslims who hated everything about the West? No, they were not. They were welcomed; so welcomed that they spent six years in Afghanistan — and of course, the Duncans also came from a country that had “freedom.”

Log in to Reply jalil7 there is one more reason to this this hatred, and that is the sheer arrogance displayed by many americans in general almost without exception. and ignorance adds to salt to the injury. where this arrogance emerges from i know not, but we all know the world share a dislike for arrogance. it is evident america is headed for a very rough ride indeed, given its enormous consumption of energy and resources, and the depleting and ever rising prices of natural resources. but is this enough excuse to go to war, i am not sure. if all super powers of the world exhibit this mentality, it will not be safe to go outside anymore. it seems however, that many americans finds war a very attractive option, and the human sector who call themselves muslims provided a very convenient excuse indeed, and at the right time too. what it all sums up to actually is a lot of americans thinking they need to go to war to keep their jobs and their wealth. it would take very long time to repair the damage done to american image in the eyes of the world, the damage brought upon by the american administration themselves. but i believe americans will be better educated and make a welcoming come back with plenty of goodwill to mankind in future. voices of rational people like Sen Ron Paul is drowned by the current war dance rituals, depicted again and again in the mainstream media. so his ideas are of course, not popular. observer the reactions to Sen Ron Paul’s arguments here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7d_e9lrcZ8) but then, if obama can make a 180 degrees turn after winning, i am not sure sure if this man is will not do the same. sorry, i just have no confidence in word plays anymore. there is no more intergrity in many leaders today, cakap tak serapa bikin.

Log in to Reply Faisal Salaamz! Although too late a response to the below but it is fine. ——————————————————————— The Politics of Rage: WHY DO THEY HATE US? To dismiss the terrorists as insane is to delude ourselves. Bin Laden and his fellow fanatics are products of failed societies that breed their anger. America needs a plan that will not only defeat terror but reform the Arab world By Fareed Zakaria To the question “Why do the terrorists hate us?” Americans could be pardoned for answering, “Why should we care?” The immediate reaction to the murder of 5,000 innocents is anger, not analysis. Yet anger will not be enough to get us through what is sure to be a long struggle. For that we will need answers. The ones we have heard so far have been comforting but familiar. We stand for freedom and they hate it. We are rich and they envy us. We are strong and they resent this. All of which is true. But there are billions of poor and weak and oppressed people around the world. They don’t turn planes into bombs. They don’t blow themselves up to kill thousands of civilians. If envy were the cause of terrorism, Beverly Hills, Fifth Avenue and Mayfair would have become morgues long ago. There is something stronger at work here than deprivation and jealousy. Something that can move men to kill but also to die. Osama bin Laden has an answer–religion. For him and his followers, this is a holy war between Islam and the Western world. Most Muslims disagree. Every Islamic country in the world has condemned the attacks of Sept. 11. To many, bin Laden belongs to a long line of extremists who have invoked religion to justify mass murder and spur men to suicide. The words “thug,” “zealot” and “assassin” all come from ancient terror cults–Hindu, Jewish and Muslim, respectively–that believed they were doing the work of God. The terrorist’s mind is its own place, and like Milton’s Satan, can make a hell of heaven, a heaven of hell. Whether it is the Unabomber, Aum Shinrikyo or Baruch Goldstein (who killed scores of unarmed Muslims in Hebron), terrorists are almost always misfits who place their own twisted morality above mankind’s. But bin Laden and his followers are not an isolated cult like Aum Shinrikyo or the Branch Davidians or demented loners like Timothy McVeigh and the Unabomber. They come out of a culture that reinforces their hostility, distrust and hatred of the West–and of America in particular. This culture does not condone terrorism but fuels the fanaticism that is at its heart. To say that Al Qaeda is a fringe group may be reassuring, but it is false. Read the Arab press in the aftermath of the attacks and you will detect a not-so-hidden admiration for bin Laden. Or consider this from the Pakistani newspaper The Nation: “September 11 was not mindless terrorism for terrorism’s sake. It was reaction and revenge, even retribution.” Why else is America’s response to the terror attacks so deeply constrained by fears of an “Islamic backlash” on the streets? Pakistan will dare not allow Washington the use of its bases. Saudi Arabia trembles at the thought of having to help us publicly. Egypt pleads that our strikes be as limited as possible. The problem is not that Osama bin Laden believes that this is a religious war against America. It’s that millions of people across the Islamic world seem to agree. This awkward reality has led some in the West to dust off old essays and older prejudices redicting a “clash of civilizations” between the West and Islam. The historian Paul Johnson has argued that Islam is intrinsically an intolerant and violent religion. Other scholars have disagreed, pointing out that Islam condemns the slaughter of innocents and prohibits suicide. Nothing will be solved by searching for “true Islam” or quoting the Quran. The Quran is a vast, vague book, filled with poetry and contradictions (much like the Bible). You can find in it condemnations of war and incitements to struggle, beautiful expressions of tolerance and stern strictures against unbelievers. Quotations from it usually tell us more about the person who selected the passages than about Islam. Every religion is compatible with the best and the worst of humankind. Through its long history, Christianity has supported inquisitions and anti-Semitism, but also human rights and social welfare. Searching the history books is also of limited value. From the Crusades of the 11th century to the Turkish expansion of the 15th century to the colonial era in the early 20th century, Islam and the West have often battled militarily. This tension has existed for hundreds of years, during which there have been many periods of peace and even harmony. Until the 1950s, for example, Jews and Christians lived peaceably under Muslim rule. In fact, Bernard Lewis, the pre-eminent historian of Islam, has argued that for much of history religious minorities did better under Muslim rulers than they did under Christian ones. All that has changed in the past few decades. So surely the relevant question we must ask is, Why are we in a particularly difficult phase right now? What has gone wrong in the world of Islam that explains not the conquest of Constantinople in 1453 or the siege of Vienna of 1683 but Sept. 11, 2001? Let us first peer inside that vast Islamic world. Many of the largest Muslim countries in the world show little of this anti-American rage. The biggest, Indonesia, had, until the recent Asian economic crisis, been diligently following Washington’s advice on economics, with impressive results. The second and third most populous Muslim countries, Pakistan and Bangladesh, have mixed Islam and modernity with some success. While both countries are impoverished, both have voted a woman into power as prime minister, before most Western countries have done so. Next is Turkey, the sixth largest Muslim country in the world, a flawed but functioning secular democracy and a close ally of the West (being a member of NATO). Only when you get to the Middle East do you see in lurid colors all the dysfunctions that people conjure up when they think of Islam today. In Iran, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, the occupied territories and the Persian Gulf, the resurgence of Islamic fundamentalism is virulent, and a raw anti-Americanism seems to be everywhere. This is the land of suicide bombers, flag-burners and fiery mullahs. As we strike Afghanistan it is worth remembering that not a single Afghan has been tied to a terrorist attack against the United States. Afghanistan is the campground from which an Arab army is battling America. But even the Arab rage at America is relatively recent. In the 1950s and 1960s it seemed unimaginable that the United States and the Arab world would end up locked in a cultural clash. Egypt’s most powerful journalist, Mohamed Heikal, described the mood at the time: “The whole picture of the United States… was a glamorous one. Britain and France were fading, hated empires. The Soviet Union was 5,000 miles away and the ideology of communism was anathema to the Muslim religion. But America had emerged from World War II richer, more powerful and more appealing than ever.” I first traveled to the Middle East in the early 1970s, and even then the image of America was of a glistening, approachable modernity: fast cars, Hilton hotels and Coca-Cola. Something happened in these lands. To understand the roots of anti-American rage in the Middle East, we need to plumb not the past 300 years of history but the past 30. Chapter I: The Ruler It is difficult to conjure up the excitement in the Arab world in the late 1950s as Gamal Abdel Nasser consolidated power in Egypt. For decades Arabs had been ruled by colonial governors and decadent kings. Now they were achieving their dreams of independence, and Nasser was their new savior, a modern man for the postwar era. He was born under British rule, in Alexandria, a cosmopolitan city that was more Mediterranean than Arab. His formative years were spent in the Army, the most Westernized segment of the society. With his tailored suits and fashionable dark glasses, he cut an energetic figure on the world stage. “The Lion of Egypt,” he spoke for all the Arab world. Nasser believed that Arab politics needed to be fired by modern ideas like self-determination, socialism and Arab unity. And before oil money turned the gulf states into golden geese, Egypt was the undisputed leader of the Middle East. So Nasser’s vision became the region’s. Every regime, from the Baathists in Syria and Iraq to the conservative monarchies of the gulf, spoke in similar terms and tones. It wasn’t that they were just aping Nasser. The Middle East desperately wanted to become modern. It failed. For all their energy these regimes chose bad ideas and implemented them in worse ways. Socialism produced bureaucracy and stagnation. Rather than adjusting to the failures of central planning, the economies never really moved on. The republics calcified into dictatorships. Third World “nonalignment” became pro-Soviet propaganda. Arab unity cracked and crumbled as countries discovered their own national interests and opportunities. Worst of all, Israel humiliated the Arabs in the wars of 1967 and 1973. When Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1990, he destroyed the last remnants of the Arab idea. Look at Egypt today. The promise of Nasserism has turned into a quiet nightmare. The government is efficient in only one area: squashing dissent and strangling civil society. In the past 30 years Egypt’s economy has sputtered along while its population has doubled. Unemployment is at 25 percent, and 90 percent of those searching for jobs hold college diplomas. Once the heart of Arab intellectual life, the country produces just 375 books every year (compared with Israel’s 4,000). For all the angry protests to foreigners, Egyptians know all this. Shockingly, Egypt has fared better than its Arab neighbors. Syria has become one of the world’s most oppressive police states, a country where 25,000 people can be rounded up and killed by the regime with no consequences. (This in a land whose capital, Damascus, is the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world.) In 30 years Iraq has gone from being among the most modern and secular of Arab countries–with women working, artists thriving, journalists writing–into a squalid playpen for Saddam Hussein’s megalomania. Lebanon, a diverse, cosmopolitan society with a capital, Beirut, that was once called the Paris of the East, has become a hellhole of war and terror. In an almost unthinkable reversal of a global pattern, almost every Arab country today is less free than it was 30 years ago. There are few countries in the world of which one can say that. We think of Africa’s dictators as rapacious, but those in the Middle East can be just as greedy. And when contrasted with the success of Israel, Arab failures are even more humiliating. For all its flaws, out of the same desert Israel has created a functioning democracy, a modern society with an increasingly high-technology economy and thriving artistic and cultural life. Israel now has a per capita GDP that equals that of many Western countries. If poverty produced failure in most of Arabia, wealth produced failure in the rest of it. The rise of oil power in the 1970s gave a second wind to Arab hopes. Where Nasserism failed, petroleum would succeed. But it didn’t. All that the rise of oil prices has done over three decades is to produce a new class of rich, superficially Western gulf Arabs, who travel the globe in luxury and are despised by the rest of the Arab world. Look at any cartoons of gulf sheiks in Egyptian, Jordanian or Syrian newspapers. They are portrayed in the most insulting, almost racist manner: as corpulent, corrupt and weak. Most Americans think that Arabs should be grateful for our role in the gulf war, for we saved Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Most Arabs think that we saved the Kuwaiti and Saudi royal families. Big difference. The money that the gulf sheiks have frittered away is on a scale that is almost impossible to believe. Just one example: a favored prince of Saudi Arabia, at the age of 25, built a palace in Riyadh for $300 million and, as an additional bounty, was given a $1 billion commission on the kingdom’s telephone contract with AT&T. Far from producing political progress, wealth has actually had some negative effects. It has enriched and empowered the gulf governments so that, like their Arab brethren, they, too, have become more repressive over time. The Bedouin societies they once ruled have become gilded cages, filled with frustrated, bitter and discontented young men–some of whom now live in Afghanistan and work with Osama bin Laden. (Bin Laden and some of his aides come from privileged backgrounds in Saudi Arabia.) By the late 1980s, while the rest of the world was watching old regimes from Moscow to Prague to Seoul to Johannesburg crack, the Arabs were stuck with their aging dictators and corrupt kings. Regimes that might have seemed promising in the 1960s were now exposed as tired, corrupt kleptocracies, deeply unpopular and thoroughly illegitimate. One has to add that many of them are close American allies. Chapter II: Failed Ideas About a decade ago, in a casual conversation with an elderly Arab intellectual, I expressed my frustration that governments in the Middle East had been unable to liberalize their economies and societies in the way that the East Asians had done. “Look at Singapore, Hong Kong and Seoul,” I said, pointing to their extraordinary economic achievements. The man, a gentle, charming scholar, straightened up and replied sharply, “Look at them. They have simply aped the West. Their cities are cheap copies of Houston and Dallas. That may be all right for fishing villages. But we are heirs to one of the great civilizations of the world. We cannot become slums of the West.” This disillusionment with the West is at the heart of the Arab problem. It makes economic advance impossible and political progress fraught with difficulty. Modernization is now taken to mean, inevitably, uncontrollably, Westernization and, even worse, Americanization. This fear has paralyzed Arab civilization. In some ways the Arab world seems less ready to confront the age of globalization than even Africa, despite the devastation that continent has suffered from AIDS and economic and political dysfunction. At least the Africans want to adapt to the new global economy. The Arab world has not yet taken that first step. The question is how a region that once yearned for modernity could reject it so dramatically. In the Middle Ages the Arabs studied Aristotle (when he was long forgotten in the West) and invented algebra. In the 19th century, when the West set ashore in Arab lands, in the form of Napoleon’s conquest of Egypt, the locals were fascinated by this powerful civilization. In fact, as the historian Albert Hourani has documented, the 19th century saw European-inspired liberal political and social thought flourish in the Middle East. The colonial era of the late 19th and early 20th centuries raised hopes of British friendship that were to be disappointed, but still Arab elites remained fascinated with the West. Future kings and generals attended Victoria College in Alexandria, learning the speech and manners of British gentlemen. Many then went on to Oxford, Cambridge and Sandhurst–a tradition that is still maintained by Jordan’s royal family, though now they go to Hotchkiss or Lawrenceville. After World War I, a new liberal age flickered briefly in the Arab world, as ideas about opening up politics and society gained currency in places like Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria. But since they were part of a world of kings and aristocrats, these ideas died with those old regimes. The new ones, however, turned out to be just as Western. Nasser thought his ideas for Egypt and the Arab world were modern. They were also Western. His “national charter” of 1962 reads as if it were written by left-wing intellectuals in Paris or London. (Like many Third World leaders of the time, Nasser was a devoted reader of France’s Le Monde and Britain’s New Statesman.) Even his most passionately held project, Pan-Arabism, was European. It was a version of the nationalism that had united Italy and Germany in the 1870s–that those who spoke one language should be one nation. America thinks of modernity as all good–and it has been almost all good for America. But for the Arab world, modernity has been one failure after another. Each path followed–socialism, secularism, nationalism–has turned into a dead end. While other countries adjusted to their failures, Arab regimes got stuck in their ways. And those that reformed economically could not bring themselves to ease up politically. The Shah of Iran, the Middle Eastern ruler who tried to move his country into the modern era fastest, reaped the most violent reaction in the Iranian revolution of 1979. But even the shah’s modernization–compared, for example, with the East Asian approach of hard work, investment and thrift–was an attempt to buy modernization with oil wealth. It turns out that modernization takes more than strongmen and oil money. Importing foreign stuff–Cadillacs, Gulfstreams and McDonald’s– is easy. Importing the inner stuffings of modern society–a free market, political parties, accountability and the rule of law–is difficult and dangerous. The gulf states, for example, have gotten modernization lite, with the goods and even the workers imported from abroad. Nothing was homegrown; nothing is even now. As for politics, the gulf governments offered their people a bargain: we will bribe you with wealth, but in return let us stay in power. It was the inverse slogan of the American revolution–no taxation, but no representation either. The new age of globalization has hit the Arab world in a very strange way. Its societies are open enough to be disrupted by modernity, but not so open that they can ride the wave. They see the television shows, the fast foods and the fizzy drinks. But they don’t see genuine liberalization in the society, with increased opportunities and greater openness. Globalization in the Arab world is the critic’s caricature of globalization–a slew of Western products and billboards with little else. For some in their societies it means more things to buy. For the regimes it is an unsettling, dangerous phenomenon. As a result, the people they rule can look at globalization but for the most part not touch it. America stands at the center of this world of globalization. It seems unstoppable. If you close the borders, America comes in through the mail. If you censor the mail, it appears in the fast food and faded jeans. If you ban the products, it seeps in through satellite television. Americans are so comfortable with global capitalism and consumer culture that we cannot fathom just how revolutionary these forces are. Disoriented young men, with one foot in the old world and another in the new, now look for a purer, simpler alternative. Fundamentalism searches for such people everywhere; it, too, has been globalized. One can now find men in Indonesia who regard the Palestinian cause as their own. (Twenty years ago an Indonesian Muslim would barely have known where Palestine was.) Often they learned about this path away from the West while they were in the West. As did Mohamed Atta, the Hamburgeducated engineer who drove the first plane into the World Trade Center. The Arab world has a problem with its Attas in more than one sense. Globalization has caught it at a bad demographic moment. Arab societies are going through a massive youth bulge, with more than half of most countries’ populations under the age of 25. Young men, often better educated than their parents, leave their traditional villages to find work. They arrive in noisy, crowded cities like Cairo, Beirut and Damascus or go to work in the oil states. (Almost 10 percent of Egypt’s working population worked in the gulf at one point.) In their new world they see great disparities of wealth and the disorienting effects of modernity; most unsettlingly, they see women, unveiled and in public places, taking buses, eating in cafes and working alongside them. A huge influx of restless young men in any country is bad news. When accompanied by even small economic and social change, it usually produces a new politics of protest. In the past, societies in these circumstances have fallen prey to a search for revolutionary solutions. (France went through a youth bulge just before the French Revolution, as did Iran before its 1979 revolution.) In the case of the Arab world, this revolution has taken the form of an Islamic resurgence. Chapter III: Enter Religion Nasser was a reasonably devout Muslim, but he had no interest in mixing religion with politics. It struck him as moving backward. This became apparent to the small Islamic parties that supported Nasser’s rise to power. The most important one, the Muslim Brotherhood, began opposing him vigorously, often violently. Nasser cracked down on it in 1954, imprisoning more than a thousand of its leaders and executing six. One of those jailed, Sayyid Qutub, a frail man with a fiery pen, wrote a book in prison called “Signposts on the Road,” which in some ways marks the beginnings of modern political Islam or what is often called “Islamic fundamentalism.” In his book, Qutub condemned Nasser as an impious Muslim and his regime as un-Islamic. Indeed, he went on, almost every modern Arab regime was similarly flawed. Qutub envisioned a better, more virtuous polity that was based on strict Islamic principles, a core goal of orthodox Muslims since the 1880s. As the regimes of the Middle East grew more distant and oppressive and hollow in the decades following Nasser, fundamentalism’s appeal grew. It flourished because the Muslim Brotherhood and organizations like it at least tried to give people a sense of meaning and purpose in a changing world, something no leader in the Middle East tried to do. In his seminal work, “The Arab Predicament,” Fouad Ajami explains, “The fundamentalist call has resonance because it invited men to participate… [in] contrast to a political culture that reduces citizens to spectators and asks them to leave things to their rulers. At a time when the future is uncertain, it connects them to a tradition that reduces bewilderment.” Fundamentalism gave Arabs who were dissatisfied with their lot a powerful language of opposition. On that score, Islam had little competition. The Arab world is a political desert with no real political parties, no free press, few pathways for dissent. As a result, the mosque turned into the place to discuss politics. And fundamentalist organizations have done more than talk. From the Muslim Brotherhood to Hamas to Hizbullah, they actively provide social services, medical assistance, counseling and temporary housing. For those who treasure civil society, it is disturbing to see that in the Middle East these illiberal groups are civil society. I asked Sheri Berman, a scholar at Princeton who studies the rise of fascist parties in Europe, whether she saw any parallels. “Fascists were often very effective at providing social services,” she pointed out. “When the state or political parties fail to provide a sense of legitimacy or purpose or basic services, other organizations have often been able to step into the void. In Islamic countries there is a ready-made source of legitimacy in the religion. So it’s not surprising that this is the foundation on which these groups have flourished. The particular form–Islamic fundamentalism–is specific to this region, but the basic dynamic is similar to the rise of Nazism, fascism and even populism in the United States.” Islamic fundamentalism got a tremendous boost in 1979 when Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini toppled the Shah of Iran. The Iranian revolution demonstrated that a powerful ruler could be taken on by groups within society. It also revealed how in a broken society even seemingly benign forces of progress–education and technology–can add to the turmoil. Until the 1970s most Muslims in the Middle East were illiterate and lived in villages and towns. They practiced a kind of street-Islam that had adapted itself to the local culture. Pluralistic and tolerant, these people often worshiped saints, went to shrines, sang religious hymns and cherished religious art, all technically disallowed in Islam. (This was particularly true in Iran.) By the 1970s, however, people had begun moving out of the villages and their religious experience was not rooted in a specific place. At the same time they were learning to read and they discovered that a new Islam was being preached by the fundamentalists, an abstract faith not rooted in historical experience but literal, puritanical and by the book. It was Islam of the High Church as opposed to Islam of the village fair. In Iran, Ayatollah Khomeini used a powerful technology–the audiocassette. His sermons were distributed throughout the country and became the vehicle of opposition to the shah’s repressive regime. But Khomeini was not alone in using the language of Islam as a political tool. Intellectuals, disillusioned by the half-baked or overrapid modernization that was throwing their world into turmoil, were writing books against “Westoxification” and calling the modern Iranian man–half Western, half Eastern–rootless. Fashionable intellectuals, often writing from the comfort of London or Paris, would critique American secularism and consumerism and endorse an Islamic alternative. As theories like these spread across the Arab world, they appealed not to the poorest of the poor, for whom Westernization was magical (it meant food and medicine). They appealed to the half-educated hordes entering the cities of the Middle East or seeking education and jobs in the West. The fact that Islam is a highly egalitarian religion for the most part has also proved an empowering call for people who felt powerless. At the same time it means that no Muslim really has the authority to question whether someone who claims to be a proper Muslim is one. The fundamentalists, from Sayyid Qutub on, have jumped into that the void. They ask whether people are “good Muslims.” It is a question that has terrified the Muslim world. And here we come to the failure not simply of governments but intellectual and social elites. Moderate Muslims are loath to criticize or debunk the fanaticism of the fundamentalists. Like the moderates in Northern Ireland, they are scared of what would happen to them if they speak their mind. The biggest Devil’s bargain has been made by the moderate monarchies of the Persian Gulf, particularly Saudi Arabia. The Saudi regime has played a dangerous game. It deflects attention from its shoddy record at home by funding religious schools (madrasas) and centers that spread a rigid, puritanical brand of Islam–Wahhabism. In the past 30 years Saudifunded schools have churned out tens of thousands of half-educated, fanatical Muslims who view the modern world and non-Muslims with great suspicion. America in this world view is almost always evil. This exported fundamentalism has in turn infected not just other Arab societies but countries outside the Arab world, like Pakistan. During the 11-year reign of Gen. Zia ul-Haq, the dictator decided that as he squashed political dissent he needed allies. He found them in the fundamentalists. With the aid of Saudi financiers and functionaries, he set up scores of madrasas throughout the country. They bought him temporary legitimacy but have eroded the social fabric of Pakistan. If there is one great cause of the rise of Islamic fundamentalism, it is the total failure of political institutions in the Arab world. Muslim elites have averted their eyes from this reality. Conferences at Islamic centers would still rather discuss “Islam and the Environment” than examine the dysfunctions of the current regimes. But as the moderate majority looks the other way, Islam is being taken over by a small poisonous element, people who advocate cruel attitudes toward women, education, the economy and modern life in general. I have seen this happen in India, where I grew up. The rich, colorful, pluralistic and easygoing Islam of my youth has turned into a dour, puritanical faith, policed by petty theocrats and religious commissars. The next section deals with what the United States can do to help the Islamic world. But if Muslims do not take it upon themselves to stop their religion from falling prey to medievalists, nothing any outsider can do will save them. Chapter IV: WHAT TO DO If almost any Arab were to have read this essay so far, he would have objected vigorously by now. “It is all very well to talk about the failures of the Arab world,” he would say, “but what about the failures of the West? You speak of long-term decline, but our problems are with specific, cruel American policies.” For most Arabs, relations with the United States have been filled with disappointment. While the Arab world has long felt betrayed by Europe’s colonial powers, its disillusionment with America begins most importantly with the creation of Israel in 1948. As the Arabs see it, at a time when colonies were winning independence from the West, here was a state largely composed of foreign people being imposed on a region with Western backing. The anger deepened in the wake of America’s support for Israel during the wars of 1967 and 1973, and ever since in its relations with the Palestinians. The daily exposure to Israel’s iron-fisted rule over the occupied territories has turned this into the great cause of the Arab–and indeed the broader Islamic–world. Elsewhere, they look at American policy in the region as cynically geared to America’s oil interests, supporting thugs and tyrants without any hesitation. Finally, the bombing and isolation of Iraq have become fodder for daily attacks on the United States. While many in the Arab world do not like Saddam Hussein, they believe that the United States has chosen a particularly inhuman method of fighting him–a method that is starving an entire nation. There is substance to some of these charges, and certainly from the point of view of an Arab, American actions are never going to seem entirely fair. Like any country, America has its interests. In my view, America’s greatest sins toward the Arab world are sins of omission. We have neglected to press any regime there to open up its society. This neglect turned deadly in the case of Afghanistan. Walking away from that fractured country after 1989 resulted in the rise of bin Laden and the Taliban. This is not the gravest error a great power can make, but it is a common American one. As F. Scott Fitzgerald explained of his characters in “The Great Gatsby,” “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy–they smashed things up and creatures and then retreated back into their money, or their vast carelessness… and let other people clean up the mess.” America has not been venal in the Arab world. But it has been careless. Yet carelessness is not enough to explain Arab rage. After all, if concern for the Palestinians is at the heart of the problem, why have their Arab brethren done nothing for them? (They cannot resettle in any Arab nation but Jordan, and the aid they receive from the gulf states is minuscule.) Israel treats its 1 million Arabs as second-class citizens, a disgrace on its democracy. And yet the tragedy of the Arab world is that Israel accords them more political rights and dignities than most Arab nations give to their own people. Why is the focus of Arab anger on Israel and not those regimes? The disproportionate feelings of grievance directed at America have to be placed in the overall context of the sense of humiliation, decline and despair that sweeps the Arab world. After all, the Chinese vigorously disagree with most of America’s foreign policy and have fought wars with U.S. proxies. African states feel the same sense of disappointment and unfairness. But they do not work it into a rage against America. Arabs, however, feel that they are under siege from the modern world and that the United States symbolizes this world. Thus every action America takes gets magnified a thousandfold. And even when we do not act, the rumors of our gigantic powers and nefarious deeds still spread. Most Americans would not believe how common the rumor is throughout the Arab world that either the CIA or Israel’s Mossad blew up the World Trade Center to justify attacks on Arabs and Muslims. This is the culture from which the suicide bombers have come. America must now devise a strategy to deal with this form of religious terrorism. As is now widely understood, this will be a long war, with many fronts and battles small and large. Our strategy must be divided along three lines: military, political and cultural. On the military front–by which I mean war, covert operations and other forms of coercion–the goal is simple: the total destruction of Al Qaeda. Even if we never understand all the causes of apocalyptic terror, we must do battle against it. Every person who plans and helps in a terrorist operation must understand that he will be tracked and punished. Their operations will be disrupted, their finances drained, their hideouts destroyed. There will be associated costs to pursuing such a strategy, but they will all fade if we succeed. Nothing else matters on the military front. The political strategy is more complex and more ambitious. At the broadest level, we now have a chance to reorder the international system around this pressing new danger. The degree of cooperation from around the world has been unprecedented. We should not look on this trend suspiciously. Most governments feel threatened by the rise of subnational forces like Al Qaeda. Even some that have clearly supported terrorism in the past, like Iran, seem interested in re-entering the world community and reforming their ways. We can define a strategy for the post-cold-war era that addresses America’s principal national-security need and yet is sustained by a broad international consensus. To do this we will have to give up some cold-war reflexes, such as an allergy to multilateralism, and stop insisting that China is about to rival us militarily or that Russia is likely to re-emerge as a new military threat. (For 10 years now, our defense forces have been aligned for everything but the real danger we face. This will inevitably change.) The purpose of an international coalition is practical and strategic. Given the nature of this war, we will need the constant cooperation of other governments–to make arrests, shut down safe houses, close bank accounts and share intelligence. Alliance politics has become a matter of high national security. But there is a broader imperative. The United States dominates the world in a way that inevitably arouses envy or anger or opposition. That comes with the power, but we still need to get things done. If we can mask our power in–sorry, work with–institutions like the United Nations Security Council, U.S. might will be easier for much of the world to bear. Bush’s father understood this, which is why he ensured that the United Nations sanctioned the gulf war. The point here is to succeed, and international legitimacy can help us do that. Now we get to Israel. It is obviously one of the central and most charged problems in the region. But it is a problem to which we cannot offer the Arab world support for its solution–the extinction of the state. We cannot in any way weaken our commitment to the existence and health of Israel. Similarly, we cannot abandon our policy of containing Saddam Hussein. He is building weapons of mass destruction. However, we should not pursue mistaken policies simply out of spite. Our policy toward Saddam is broken. We have no inspectors in Iraq, the sanctions are–for whatever reason–starving Iraqis and he continues to build chemical and biological weapons. There is a way to reorient our policy to focus our pressure on Saddam and not his people, contain him militarily but not harm common Iraqis economically. Colin Powell has been trying to do this; he should be given leeway to try again. In time we will have to address the broader question of what to do about Saddam, a question that, unfortunately, does not have an easy answer. (Occupying Iraq, even if we could do it, does not seem a good idea in this climate.) On Israel we should make a clear distinction between its right to exist and its occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. On the first we should be as unyielding as ever; on the second we should continue trying to construct a final deal along the lines that Bill Clinton and Ehud Barak outlined. I suggest that we do this less because it will lower the temperature in the Arab world–who knows if it will?–than because it’s the right thing to do. Israel cannot remain a democracy and continue to occupy and militarily rule 3 million people against their wishes. It’s bad for Israel, bad for the Palestinians and bad for the United States. But policy changes, large or small, are not at the heart of the struggle we face. The third, vital component to this battle is a cultural strategy. The United States must help Islam enter the modern world. It sounds like an impossible challenge, and it certainly is not one we would have chosen. But America–indeed the whole world–faces a dire security threat that will not be resolved unless we can stop the political, economic and cultural collapse that lies at the roots of Arab rage. During the cold war the West employed myriad ideological strategies to discredit the appeal of communism, make democracy seem attractive and promote open societies. We will have to do something on that scale to win this cultural struggle. First, we have to help moderate Arab states, but on the condition that they embrace moderation. For too long regimes like Saudi Arabia’s have engaged in a deadly dance with religious extremism. Even Egypt, which has always denounced fundamentalism, allows its controlled media to rant crazily about America and Israel. (That way they don’t rant about the dictatorship they live under.) But more broadly, we must persuade Arab moderates to make the case to their people that Islam is compatible with modern society, that it does allow women to work, that it encourages education and that it has welcomed people of other faiths and creeds. Some of this they will do–Sept. 11 has been a wake-up call for many. The Saudi regime denounced and broke its ties to the Taliban (a regime that it used to glorify as representing pure Islam). The Egyptian press is now making the case for military action. The United States and the West should do their own work as well. We can fund moderate Muslim groups and scholars and broadcast fresh thinking across the Arab world, all aimed at breaking the power of the fundamentalists. Obviously we will have to help construct a new political order in Afghanistan after we have deposed the Taliban regime. But beyond that we have to press the nations of the Arab world–and others, like Pakistan, where the virus of fundamentalism has spread–to reform, open up and gain legitimacy. We need to do business with these regimes; yet, just as we did with South Korea and Taiwan during the cold war, we can ally with these dictatorships and still push them toward reform. For those who argue that we should not engage in nation-building, I would say foreign policy is not theology. I have myself been skeptical of nationbuilding in places where our interests were unclear and it seemed unlikely that we would stay the course. In this case, stable political development is the key to reducing our single greatest security threat. We have no option but to get back into the nation-building business. It sounds like a daunting challenge, but there are many good signs. Al Qaeda is not more powerful than the combined force of many determined governments. The world is indeed uniting around American leadership, and perhaps we will see the emergence, for a while, of a new global community and consensus, which could bring progress in many other areas of international life. Perhaps most important, Islamic fundamentalism still does not speak to the majority of the Muslim people. In Pakistan, fundamentalist parties have yet to get more than 10 percent of the vote. In Iran, having experienced the brutal puritanism of the mullahs, people are yearning for normalcy. In Egypt, for all the repression, the fundamentalists are a potent force but so far not dominant. If the West can help Islam enter modernity in dignity and peace, it will have done more than achieved security. It will have changed the world.

Log in to Reply Jaquar Dr M. Yes, there is a lot of truth in your saying that the Palestine and Israel issue is the main course of discontent for a lot of moslems towards America. The majority of Americans however do not think too much about the problems between Israel and Palestine. We are too busy living our daily lives over here and have our own problems to worry about. However, it is the government’s policy to support Israel. Washington DC is a separate entity of it’s own and does not reflect on all Americans well intention. Israel has spent billions to ensure that there is a well oiled machine to continue lobbying the Congress for continued support for Israel. They do this through peaceful means and within the law to gain attention towards their plight. Also billions are also spent to ensure that pro Israel senators to win the elections. This is a brilliant tactic on their part. The Palestinians do not have the same luxury and are not well heard of their problems besides the wrong support that they are receiving from Moslems dying violently in the jihad cause. This only cause the general perception of Americans towards Moslems to be more negative and that they are violent people. I personally do not see the problem ending and only see it getting worse with the polarizing of the West and the Moslem countries. Generations of Israelis and Palestinians grew up hating each other after so many years of killing and distrust. It is already happening now with American and the Moslem nations. I happened to hear my own kids and their friends talking about the crazy Moslems killing Americans while watching TV. When they grow up, they will be so anti Moslems just like the Moslems in the world hating Americans. Peace unto all.

The good guys needed to defend themselves from the constant ambush by these ruthless uncivilized savages.The story why the Injuns became aggressive was however not so revealed to the public. Japan was the other evil nation that offended USA by attacking the Pearl Harbour,but what provoked the Japanese was also not told the world.So the killing of hundreds of thousands innocent civilian Japanese by USA atomic bombs in retaliation was justified as a collateral damage. The Muslims do not hate the Americans .Actually Muslims are like the rest of the world too, they love America.If only you could see what the Muslim girls wear beneath their burqas and purdahs you could see that they have all been Americanized.Like the rest of the world, Muslims too have been brainwashed by Hollywood propaganda machine. It’s these injustices political America has inflicted on the Muslims by supporting Israel’s aggression on Palestine since time immemorial,that make it easy for some truly frustrated Muslims to be easily instigated to do something foolish for themselves as well as for the other Muslims. For as long as Osama ben Laden is still not captured that means the plan of destroying another Muslim nation is very much on their Agenda.Can anyone really believe that the great American intelligence and satellite technology really cannot detect this Osama Laden with his very big family living somewhere in the caves of the mountains of Afghanistan?They want the fight against terrorism to be relevant to justify their huge defense budget. Tun the enemies are really that strong .There’s nothing we could do should they want to shock and awe another Muslim nation with their great weapons.Killing ourselves through suicide bombing only make their job much easier.Whoever taught the Muslims this stupid strategy of winning the war against the enemies? Its obvious the enemies are scheming big things against the Muslims and only God can save us Tun.But we must do the right things.Firstly we must not do any provocation and secondly, we must sue for peace no matter what.We must never fight fire with fire.

Muslims hatred against American (government) are very much inevitable because what we Muslims know is that America is Israel twin brother for doing authentic evil holocaust against Muslims around the globe. This is a very real holocaust unlike the myth of Nazi holocaust against the Jews which was invented by the Jewish bankers (Rothschild & Co.)for the creation of the State of Israel. This hatred is similar just like American peoples who hate Jewish peoples in America for their evil doings towards the gentiles American, and in fact this hatred towards Jews is growing as days go by. >>3.

Log in to Reply azfarhanif Salam, There must be a reason why God has made us the Muslim community so weak now. I feel that we are at our current state is because God is punishing us maybe because we have forgotten the teachings and reminders laid out in the Quran. The Quran tells us that the Jews were punished and expelled from their land because they practiced usury . Looking back at what the Muslim community has done in recent centuries, it is obvious that we have not obeyed some of those commandments we were supposed to follow. The destruction of a Muslim superpower(the Ottoman state,through cooperation with nonMuslim powers), practicing usury, unwillingness to help the poor, sidelining education (by which i mean the sciences), not working together to contribute towards betterment of the society. Now we don’t even have the power to even defend against foreign occupation. I think its high time we reflect on our bigger failures and stop focusing on petty issues like which team’s football jersey we are not allowed to wear.

The Iraqi military under the leadership of Sadamn raped and pillaged… And then they threatened to attack Saudi Arabia…the very birth land of Islam… and who intervened to protect the land – Malaysia?

And if you still want to bring up the plight of Palestinians…I have asked you many a times in past and as you don’t tire of raising this point..I dont tire of asking again… when the US have time and again tried bringing Israel and Palestine to the discussion table and time and again, Hamas and Hezbollah keep doing tits-for-tats to disrupt any ongoing negotiations…what did you as Malaysian PM do? Did you as a Muslim leader do what a progressive leader would have done…offered to peace-broker…did you? why not..is it easy to criticise?…is it not easy to get people around a peace table and talk and get a consensus? I guess, we know which route you like taking…play the blame game. You do that here…why not internationally as well eh? Sir…the Israeli-Palestinian conflict goes beyond your spin of things of who you say is the rightful party…no point just blaming Israel and the Americans…Israelis will not give up the land just because Palestinians want it…they will need to come to an agreement where it does not expose them from internal security perspective. Can you see it from Israeli perspective or do you only want to look at it from one side?

The west realised their stupidity of killing among themselves during the two World Wars. Hence, becoming wiser what better targets to look for but the Muslim states, weaken them and exploit their resources – animalistic Darwinism at work. To them killing is becoming habitual. Killing is nothing compared to a life of a dog. In terms of war technology the US established a War College and also the Ministry of War. That was more than a century ago and from them evolved the sophistications. By now they are the masters of the art of war be it open or psychological.

If you really ponder it is actually a religious cum political issue.And has it’s origin and root in the crusading years.When Europe came that close to becoming a Muslim nation.And when politics and religion were quit interwoven at that time.Even today that applies. Just as a person whom was given is which essentially a Muslim name such as that of Barack Hussein Obama who would have never made it as the first black president of USA had he remained as one.In fact ,the middle name Hussein was very much underplayed and that Obama is now a Christian prominently overplayed.So much for meritocracy craps…but proves my point that one need to be a Christian to get elected in the West. So,let me get to the point. It’s called Jerusalem.. Now,in the crusading years much of Europe was very much into slitting each other throats and that enmity ran deep indeed.But that was all set aside for only one dream and that dream was to bring Jerusalem under the Christian control.. Hence it does not require one to be a rocket scientist to figure out what Jerusalem must have meant for Christians. Arabs ruled Jerusalem from 638 and subsequently by the Turkish Othman empire till 1917.Than came the British .Finally the British fulfilled their dreams where their Richard the Lionheart failed in 1191…..Till 1948.Than Jerusalem became a game for anybody and everybody. Hence whatever we see now as the Israel hegemony over Palestinians had by default got Christians as a factor added into the equation and fray. Just because Jerusalem was involved..This is a critical factor. Let me elaborate why that is so. Traditionally it was the Christians in Europe who actually persecuted the Jews.And it was the Muslim Calips who really gave Jews some space and refuge.But since Jerusalem is involved strange bed-fellas chose to sleep together.That is ,Christianity found common grounds with Judaism for the sake of Jerusalem.Otherwise they are sworn enemies. Now it is imperative to mention here that though the world Jewry are a powerful lobby in the Capital Hill now ; but could never hold a candle to the might of global Christianity at large. Besides the Christian belt both in US and Europe far outweighed and out numbered any Jewish interest that Jews alone could ever possibly muster .Thus the Christians were and still remains as the most powerful vested groups that no politician worth his salt in the West can afford to ignore or antagonize .Therefore it is this factor and that the Christians being as the most powerful group on the earth that keeps the conflict in the Middle East alive till date. Because there is not even a remote possibility for a Christian regime, like Vatican to exist in Jerusalem- since it is surrounded by Muslims and Arabs.In fact Jerusalem has more legitimacy as a Christan capital than Vatican by Christian logic. So some legitimacy had to be cooked up for Jerusalem.And that came about in the form of Israel ‘s right to exist –never mind that Jews actually exited it for a couple of thousand years!…..notwithstanding it’s lunacy or it’s ridiculousness … it was sold as a ‘legitimate’ reason.With it came the Jew’s claims over Jerusalem as Israel ‘s historical and rightful capital.How convenient ! Everyone knows Israel cannot exist by itself.In fact most Jews who lives there knows that rather too well.Unless of course,with the support of global Christians the existence of Israel becomes very much possible… In return Israel becomes the trustee and the custodian of Jerusalem for Christians. Than arises the question that why must US and UK dirty their hands for the sake of global Christians.Look no further than Blair and George Bush,the born-again Christians for an answer..They were put in their power seats by the Christian belt voters despite their incompetence as leaders. It is that simple. Take away the equation of Christianity in the Middle-East and the feud between the Jews and Arabs are solved yesterday.With the Christian financial,physical and moral support Arabs and Jews would be killing each other come next millenium . That indeed Sir,is the goddamned truth.

Log in to Reply Syed Akbar Ali Dear Tun, I think the Americans know your argument quite well and they also know that what you say is spot on. However the Yanks want to steal the oil which the Arabs have. (Why dont they just buy the oil, like everyone else? If the Americans dont buy their oil, the Arabs surely cant drink it?) Hence they have to create this hate illusion, that the “Arabs hate the US”. However, from the time they were slave owners, the Americans suffer the hangover of being labelled racists. They are very sensitive about this. Hence they dont wish to say that the “Arabs hate us”. That will be deemed anti Arab racism, maybe even anti-semitic, because the Arabs are also a Semitic race. So they have settled on another feature common to the Arab race yet not race related, which they can use as a focus point to whip up hatred against the Arabs. That is of course the religion of Islam. (How I wished they had picked on camels instead – which is also quite common to Arabs but not so universal.) Islam however is a world religion with more non Arab than Arab Muslims existing in the world. Unfortunately for the Muslims, yet more oil is found in yet more Muslim countries. Malaysia, Indonesia, Nigeria, Sudan, Brunei, the Central Asian Republics have large quantities of oil. So the Americans can vent their racism against all these countries, go after their oil – all under the camouflage of “the Muslims hate us”. The War On Terror will go on for some time. The Muslims have no problems with China (an atheist nation) or with Germany (quite a hedonistic nation) or with Continental Europe at large. China and Europe together consume as much as if not more oil and other resources as the rest of the world put together (including the US), yet few or no Muslims hate China or Europe. If the Chinese, Germans or Continental Europeans want the oil, they just come over and buy it, without having to shed human blood to get at the oil. But all these arguments are just so much oil splashed on the floor. It makes the floor slippery and unfortunately it is we, the Muslim countries, who keep slipping on the oil and falling down. Everytime the Yanks want to make us fall down, they splash more oil on the floor and we just keep falling down. The Americans have not gotten over their racism. Unfortunately the greed for oil and its availability in the lands of the colored people has only helped exacerbate and prolong their racism. I believe if oil production is “democratised” – meaning more non American and non British oil companies are given drilling and production rights, this may help to curb some of America’s prolonged racism. Muslims countries must make it a matter of their national security NOT to allow a concentration of their oil resources in the hands of a select few American or British oil companies. Italy consumes oil but they will not bomb the Arabs for their oil because there are no or few Italian oil companies vying for the oil. Neither will Germany either, although it is about the third largest economy in the world. If we can break the American and British oil hegemony I think we may buy ourselves more peace.

They lost the wars in Vietnam, Korea, Iraq and for definite in Afganistan they will suffer the same fate !! They simply cannot win guerilla warfare. The Americans just unable to sustain such wars.

Log in to Reply HBT Good afternoon Ayahanda Tun, 1. Americans don’t know why we hate them. 2. Malaysians don’t know why they hate us. 3. WARS cost not only money (wealth), they caused lost of human lives to the entire human and living civilasation, man-made disasters etc.., and these factors are transformed into hatred and revenge in the name of terror and jihad. //12. So why do they, the Muslims, hate Americans? Is it because they hate democracy and freedom? Only the most stupid can suggest this. They hate Americans and Europeans generally because they aided and abetted in the seizure of Palestine, in the unquestioning support for Israel’s oppression and brutalities, in Israel’s settlements on Palestinian land, and all the other crimes committed by Israel OR 12. So why do they, the Americans, hate Muslims? Is it because they hate jihad and freedom? Only the most stupid can suggest this. They hate Middle East and Afghanistan generally because they aided and abetted in the prevention of Israel settlement in Palestine, in the unquestioning support for Palestine’s Hamas oppression and brutalities, in Palestine’s disagreement of Isreal settlement on to Palestinian land, and all the other primitive crimes committed by Palestinans// Ayahanda Tun, we don’t have to go far, the comment made by Malay Muslim in Malaysia can fund irrelevat wars for no reason that caused the country lost billions of FDI that prevented auto and semi-auto Indusrialisation in Malaysia due to budaya politik sampah sarap ini as commented By Ir. Syahrizan on July 19, 2010 9:51 AM Dear Tun, Speaking of the devil himself (Khazanah), why don’t you ever touch on Proton? Proton also a part of Khazanah programme. And my Proton’s power window is messing with me again, plus my central lock ain’t working and my car axle is making that weird squeaking sound again. I have sent it to the Service Center 15 times in 1 year! And still no luck. Admit “lah” Tun, Proton’s car quality still sucks even if you give it another 25 years of Protection. Luckily I only drive Proton to “beli sayur” & “pasar minggu”. How about other less fortunate rakyat? They have no choice but to rely the “Pride National Car” to go through and forth everyday! Furthermore most of them are stucked with 9 years bank loan installment. Our car industry is in a messy shape (many thanks to NAP and AP). Me think we wouldn’t be able to compete Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam & Philippines anymore. Latest news; now GM and FORD opening factories at Thailand. VW (after failed discussion with Proton) now opening factory at Indonesia. We are losing Foreign Direct Investment, job opportunities, cheaper and better built cars. And over here, we are still subsidizing “Tin Milo National Car” for nothing. Other than difficulty to buy newspaper at the roadside stall cause my power window ain’t working. Me thinks, to compared that “Fishing and Boat Investment” which “rugi” only few millions, how about Proton, 25 years in Billions of RM? Not to mention we Rakyat have to bear the R&D cost? Eh, what R&D cost? We are the experimental ‘guinea pigs’.// Good day Ayahanda Tun. Only cowards and incompetent people will use Race and Religion Supremacy as tools to fear and oppress others, and this tactic is removing gradually by the entire human civilisation………

Kadang-kala mereka berlagak seolah-olah masyarakat dunia ‘blind and idiot’ dan tidak dapat menilai mana yg baik dan buruk. Mereka telah memonopoli politik dunia dan PBB dengan begitu baik sekali. Walaupun kecaman dibuat terhadap kekejaman yg diketuai oleh mereka atau ‘rakan-rakan karib mereka’ seperti Israel, namun kecaman ini jarang sekali dijadikan batasan atau halangan untuk Amerika terus bersikap angkuh dan menjadi dalang atau penyokong kekejaman di negara-negara yg tidak bersalah seperti Iraq dan Afghanistan. Negara-negara yg mendapat sokongan Amerika pula akan mendabik dada kerana seolah-olah mendapat ‘lesen’ atau sokongan dari Amerika. Contoh terdekat, lihatlah negara jiran kita, Singapura. Sesungguhnya Allah itu lebih dan Maha Mengetahui.

Log in to Reply hakimjb Dear Tun, Maybe you can sympathize with the Islamist groups, and criticize the brutalities of the Americans, Israelis and their allies. But what if one day, our beloved country, Malaysia is attacked by a terrorist act? Say, an Islamist group bombs Genting Highlands because it houses a casino. How would we react? Would we still justify the bombing when our people are killed in such attack? Think carefully. We must NOT support terrorism and brutality, whether it comes from the West, East, North, South, Islamists, Neo-cons, Nazis, Communists, or even Nationalists. If we really support peace and freedom, we must presevere to find the best and most diplomatic way to resolve a conflict. The European Union is an excellent example of how neighbouring countries can work together only less than a century since they’ve waged war against each other. The UN is another. Maybe you’d dismiss this and say, look how weak these organizations have been in giving response to recent conflicts. But we musn’t forget how they’ve managed to resolve similar, perhaps larger conflicts in the past. Jangan mudah lupa.

All along the 2 biggest enemies of Islam were dead set to attack Afganistan and Iraq. They had evil intentions against the muslims. Their hands are full of muslims’ blood. On American support of Israel, the credit goes to the jewish elits in America.

This is called Holy_War and Islam teach this. 3. This is not the doing to Avatar. Oooohhhh… God (be it Allah, Jesus, Buddha or Siva), thanks for sending me to this world as an non-Muslim… as my religion does not teach me to die and kill others under your name GOD or Religion name. I really like the way Gandhi said… “An eye for and eye, will leave everyone blind” While I am not the position to educate you, I now know why the Muslim in Shah Alam step on cow head to protest the build of Hindu temple. I read an article the Prophet Muhammad(s.a.a.w.) allow a non-Muslim woman to build temple in Mecca (after the woman temple been destroyed by his follower) and provide protection for her to practice her believe. I wonder whose teaching this so-called Muslim’s in Shah Alam following. Of-course the woman eventually converted to Muslim because he like the way Prophet Muhammad(s.a.a.w.) treat her, I also would consider to embrace Islam if the violent is not there.

The American preachs democracy but when Hamas won the election democratically, the Americans & the Europeans failed to recognized it thus stemmed the perception that THEY are practicing double standard. What a shame for a preacher of so called DEMOCRACY. Instead of being killed unprepared and unarmed by the Israelis, the Palestinian should be opted with honorable methods of defense and allowed to fight in a level playing field. They should be given ample arms and armory to defend themselves against Israel aggressions. Not beseige as presently ongoing and let to be slaughtered by Israelis anytime they feel happy to sacrifice them. That’s very unfair. Let the Palestinians die protecting their homeland gentlemently. Supply them with weapons and let see if the Israelis can sustain their egotism. Al Qaeda should train young Palestinians in the field of snipership as a strategy to assasinate the Israel leadership especially the PM Natanyahu and all those who potrays hardline leadership. Just like what they did to most Palestinian leadership through their MOSSAD and CIA. An EYE for an EYE. That’s it. Like other Muslims, yes I hate the Americans too.
