Globalisation, free market, free world, democracy and communism are examples of grandiose schemes underscored by theories full of assumptions. Given the world conditions thus imperfect and forever changing, the stipulations cannot be met to the liking.
To the so called free world communism is a justification for sanction. Hence, embargo becomes a WMD. The after effects are debilitating and communism kneels to 'democracy'. Democracy becomes the pillar of humanity! What stop the proponents from hijacking democracy as they seem fit to their advantage?
The practice of so called free market has become intractible to the proponent themselves. Hence, when the sub-prime bubble burst, the proponents must insist to the world that the problem is being overcomed, the economy is strong and the dollar is stable.
To get out of the financial abyss and trillions of debt:
i) control the oil flow of Saudi, Kuwait, Iraq;
ii) destabilise the world and sell more weaponry;
iii) invade Iraq, Iran and control their oil;
iv) play threatening big brother to China, Japan, South Korea;
v) play protective big brother to Israel for Jew money;
vi) crusade and subjugate the Muslims;
vii) manipulate UN, IAEA, IMF, World Bank, NATO to their whims and fancies.
These are but part of the broadly apparent strategies affecting countries like us. The hidden strategies are yet to moult if ever.

Salahuddin Al-Ayyubi (1138-1193), the Hero of Al-Quds was of Kurdish blood from Azarbaijan. His grandfather settled in Tikrit, Baghdad. For 27 fighting years Salahuddin was on horseback much of the time.
After the taking of Constantinople from the crusaders in 1453 by Mehmet, the Ottoman sultan, sporadic wars continued on. There are conflicting accounts as to when the crusades ended. Billings (1990) put it as far as 1798 meaning a span of 700 years.
In June 1798 Napoleon, on his way to Egypt, sailed to Malta and subdued the 332 crusader knights bastioned there. In Egypt Napoleon was known to enjoy the company of viziers and many an evening he presided over open-air court cases. He was a Muslim according to certain sources. He died in exile on St Elba.
Note: Salahuddin fortress in the mountains north east of Latakia, Syria is a reminder of his legacy. When I visited the fortress 6 years ago it is a favourite tourist site though not much of the fortress architecture remained.

Orang kita memang suka cari kerja (splitting hairs) bukan buat kerja. Hari-hari ada juga perkara-perkara canggih kononnya untuk menunjukan buat kerja. Sebab otak yang kosong tidak boleh berfikir panjang dan menganalisa implikasinya maka timbulnya kejadian tikus membaiki labu. Bak kata tin kosong itulah yang kuat bunyinya.
Jika diomong-omongkan konsep 1Malaysia inilah jadinya. Kenalah dipadankan dengan isi, pendekatan baru, berpolitiking serta rebranding, kalau tidak ia berupa kelonsong sahaja.
Pemimpin yang goncang akan membuat apa saja untuk menguatkan kedudukannya - menjual hak sendiri untuk menyedapkan hati orang, menunjuk-nunjuk keperhatinan dsb.Padahal banyak lagi hal-hal kepentingan negara patut di selesaikan. Beras tak cukup, perkampungan terbiar kurang kemudahan jalan (jalan di kampung saya masih lateritik!), kesihatan dan lain-lain aspek, orang-orang asli merana bebuluran kerana bahan makanan dan pendapatan di hutan berkurangan, pencemaran persekitaran dsb.
Pemimpin-pemimpin sudah lama berkampung di bandar lali dengan kemewahan (RM10 juta senang-senang dikirim keluar negara, yang ada dalam poket entah berapa banyak lagi, untuk isteri dan anak entah berapa banyak lagi) jadi lupa mereka yang tinggal di pendalaman -terutamanya di Sarawak dan Sabah berapa daif kehidupan disana.
Akuilah bahawa Allah telah menganugrahkan negara ini dengan berbilang bangsa. Dengan itu kita kaya dengan budaya, sejarah, agama dan kebolehan yang berbeza yang dapat dimenafaati. Cara isi borang untuk menyatukan masyarakat majmuk adalah satu pendekatan yang cetek.

It is just a haunch. But I feel quite strongly the undercurrent of media trying to play king-maker. When KJ came back from Mekah news was that he could be appointed as a minister. As it did not materialise there would be few red faces. What is the real function of (certain) media?
Now the pressure is on. Certain mainstream media say that Hassan Marican got to go. He knows too much of the RM270 billion? One wonders. Petronas seems to be doing well.
Several media manipulators have been neutralised. However, the shadow of wayang kulit is still there.

The old crusades, the papal killing fields.
On November 25 1095 Pope Urban II summoned the expedition for the 1st crusade to Jerusalem, (also) their holy land. Some 25,000 marched 3000 miles from Europe (France, Spain, Italy, Germany ...) to Muslim-held Jerusalem and captured it by July 1099 and established the Latin (Crusader)Kingdom. Some 40,000 Jews and Muslims were savagely butchered.
2nd crusade (1144- ) - called by Pope Eugenius III and led by King Louis VII of France and King Conrad of Germany failed.
In 1187 Salahudin al-Ayubi routed the entire Christian army at the Battle of Hattin and recaptured Jerusalem (Al-Quds). Nearly all the knights of Templers and Hospitalliers were killed.
3rd crusade (1187-1192) - the fall of Jerusalem led Pope Gregory VIII to call for crusade. Led by Richard I (Lion Heart) but failed to capture Jerusalem which Salahudin successfully defended.
Salahudin, the Hero of Al-Quds died in 1193 in Syria, a poor man as he had given away much of his possessions! Till today Jerusalem remains in Muslim hands.
4th crusade (1203-1204) - encouraged by Pope Innocent III. The west christians instead of going after the Muslims befelled Byzantine (orthodox) Constantinople in 1204 and gained much booty! They established the Latin Kingdom of Constantinople.
5th crusade 1218-1221)- again announced by Pope Innocent III, an attacked Egypt (Damietta) ended in failure.
6th crusade (1245-1249)- announced by Pope Innocent IV again, attacked Egypt (detour to Jerusalem) ended in a rout.
7th crusade (1271-1272) - led by King Edward I of England, failed to halt the Mamluk Turks from regaining several strongholds of the Latin Kingdom.
By 1453 the Latin Kingdom of Constantinople fell to the Turks led by Mehmet, the Ottoman sultan.
However, in Andalus the Muslims were losing their hold of the country. By January 1492, Abu ‘Abdullah, the last Khalif of Granada, Spain was fleeing in exile to Morocco. The mother of the Khalif scolded her son, “Do not weep like a woman for what you could not defend like a man!”
The Muslim rule of Andalus (Spain) which lasted for 772 years (since 720) was over. Granada, the last stronghold of the Moors capitulated to the Spanish army on that fateful January. Thousands of lives had perished. Al-Hambra, the resplendent palace was lost. Over 1,005,000 volumes of works on Moorish culture were burnt. Ferdinand, the King of Spain issued an edict of expulsion which sent 100,000 Jews to Portugal.
Fisabilillah.

They could have easily droned Saddam. Now the Iraqis have little left of its history as the birthplace of civilisation. America lost the war. The Iraqis will not forget revenge not in another 1000 years. America is doomed.
With all the pretext America wants to dismantle the nuclear arsenal of Pakistan. We are witnessing the genocide of Pathans in Afghanistan and Pakistan. They will not forget revenge not in another 1000 years.
It will not stop there. Indications are clear that Iran and Yemen will be the next killing fields. Isn't this a crusade against Muslims?
For the killing fields in the Moroland, Pinatubo drove America out of the Philippines. The last eruption of that 'dormant' volcanic mountain was 500 years before!
Kartina flattened New Orleans. California conflagarated. The Andreas fault has rumbled. Do all these 'natural disasters' mean anything to them? The wrath of God for their arrogance on this planet earth. Wait for the Big Show. Allah is Great.
The answer to crusade is jihad with all its possible ramifications. To survive we must strenghten our brotherhood of Islam.

We stand to gain much in having close relationship with Indonesia, the great land of thousand (of) islands with the largest Muslim population in the world. Under the current peaceful environment the country is fast developing yet the people maintain good traditional values and culture. For example, the town of Jatinangor close to Bandung and where the University of Padjajaran is located is much cleaner now than say 3 years ago.
The people are independently hardworking and creative and this contribute greatly towards the economy and development. They build on their own suraus, homes, irrigation of padi fields. With that huge population their rice is sufficient to feed themselves and even for export in certain years! We have to learn from them because we are still deficient in rice.
The Indonesian workers are contributing towards development here. It's ashame how we treat many of them, less than humane, with many cases of physical abuse. A maid was literally ironed and recently one got bundled up dead. This put us in a bad light of our relationship.
The relevant ministry should instituted proper guidelines and monitoring of their welfare be it at national, state and district levels. The workers are safely assured that whatever problems arise they report to such offices. A National Standing Committee to be estalished and regular reports published. We say much of human capital are they not part of it.
Who bears the burden of guilt (dosa) when Muslim maids work in restaurants and houses that serve pork? Behold the leaders of the day for you will answer that to Allah.

A samurai kontot that he is. He has degraded the culture of samurai. The Japanese simply laugh at him. Being a political failure, the least he could do is to quit UMNO.
Nazri is a ronin. Like father like son. Alijah Gordon said something to me about him.

America is but a belligerent and a crusader state. Obama does not want to fail his folks as the first black President. Day by day the stranglehold on him to adhere to foreign and national policies dictated by certain heinous groups (you know who) become stronger. He is tangoing like a puppet on the strings. Najib is tangoing too.
A nobody said that Tun's timing of statements on the 9/11 were improper during these tensional days. The world is ever in tension until kuching bertanduk! Many innocent lives are being killed daily in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Philippines and yet the less said the better? These are merely not 'international incidents'. Jack Straw has castrated himself and thus no balls.
"Wake - it is time to be a martyr at Kabul" - rebel folksong, Afghanistan 1982.
During the crusades of old they called us infidels. Now, crusaders labelled us terrorists. They were not happy with the outcome of the earlier crusades (1095-1453, the fall of Constantinople) which prompted Austorc d'Aurillac to say "I see Christianity routed. I do not believe there has been such a loss. It gives good reason to stop believing in God and to adore Mohammad".
The Arabs have achieved their (hence Muslim) climax of civilisation. Their countries have been laid to waste by crusaders for centuries already, the latest Iraq, on-going Palestine and soon Iran and Yamen. Their wealth are spent and so are the people. Here we stand as spectators and mess-up the country. Damn the destroyer.
Only Iran can hold the banner of Islam high and that's why they are being hunted down. The fear and paranoia put into Muslim countries (including Malaysia) by the west deter them to support Iran. Recall our representative to UN incident!

In all honesty and fairness I must say that the Americans, individually have but praise and admiration for them. They have common sense, hardworking, helpful, unselfish, courteous, intelligent etc etc. I know this for a fact for I spent years in Louisiana, California, Oregon and Florida primarily as a student. I traversed their country north-south and east-west.
My daughter was borne very prematurely at six and half month and weighed barely 1kg then. The hospital was equipped with the latest technology, and the doctors, nurses and community gave their best care to my daughter and wife. She is now a teacher. Allah is great.
One winter, while travelling the car radiator hose burst and we were stranded by the highway. After flagging several cars we finally got help when a car pulled over and towed us to the nearest gas station. He said that he had worked with Citybank, K Lumpur before!
A world reknown ENT surgeon at Los Angeles replaced my right ear inner bones with artificial ones.
To these people and others and the many lecturers who taught me I owe them much gratitude.
As a nation their foreign policy is belligrent. Their hands are bloodied with the killing fields committed (in the name of so-called liberty) be it in their own soil - against bisons, Red Indians, African slaves, Mexicans ... or elsewhere - Panama, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Philippines, Palestine ... now Iraq and Afghanistan, later Iran, Yaman ...
With such historical background the sacrifial lambs of 3000 at the World Trade Center is not improbable and inconsequential. The minds of the general public have been blinded with such a stupendous ruse that they become dumbfounded and simply refused to believe their common sense and physics in this case. Where's the evidence they still say?

Lives especially foreign ones are cheap to these warmongers. They killed many Iraqis. They didn't make a fuss of it. However, they bitched over Abu Gharib prison torture. Several soldiers became the scapegoats. This hulla-baloo was to show to the world that they care.
At the initial stage of WWII, Churchill found it difficult to get the Americans involved in the fight against Hitler. To entice them the British (purposely) allowed tour cruise ships to ply cross the Atlantic from England to New York though under naval protection against U2 submarines. The U2 were holding back not to torpedo the cruise ships because there might be gringos among the passengers.
The break happened when finally a cruise ship was torpedoed and sank. Amongst the casualties were a few gringos. Then America declared war over Germany and the rest is history.

For all you know, buried cunningly in the lorries of sand are bags of heroine, emphitamines, gold, arms and what have you. Can the customs really check on that?
This is the case where enrich thy neighbour doesn't work here. They are already richer than us.
How to break the Sing's monopoly on the trade route.
1: build the crooked bridge;
2: build an east-west Panama-like canal linking Kuala Muda-Merbau Pulas-Kg Keruna-Tasek Chendroh-Kg Timor-Kg Hulu on the Kelantan River. The voluminous soil dug up can be used to enjoin Penang to the mainland, and Langkawi to K Perlis.
With those two built we can talk eyeball-to-eyeball with the Sings.
Thailand will never agree to build a canal across the Isthmus of Kra for strategic reasons to contain the trouble south and its break-away to autonomy and even independence.

The Works Minister must be working from the house (as per his draughtsmen/women are allowed!) during office hours as such that he is oblivious of daily happenings in order that decisions made are not detrimental to the country.
For a few RM more we sell sand so that the Sings can expand their coast line to narrow the Straits to Johore besides the billions of microchips can be manufactured as what the silica sand are purported for. How gullible we can be! Is Malaysia that bankrupt?
The PM is desperate for votes. Hence, he is busy with daily nitty-gritty things to show he cares which is best left to the appropriate ministries. What has he done or undone here and in Saudi Arabia to be so awarded! To show that we belong to the same club of Master Brinkmanship?
He better focus on bigger things that matters as PM in terms of security and other aspects of high national interest. Anyway, during his many abscences, Nazri take to centre stage! Used to be anak rajas roaming around in the old days.

Abolish VOA in the first place. Abolish VOA. Abolish VOA.
The wellbeing of rakyat is of top importance than the few ringgit more from 'tourists'.
Statesmanship don't see in terms of ringgit only but what benefit the society as a whole.
The veteran politicians are too embedded in cosy life away from reality, the Deputy Minister of Defence for example.
