To file or not to file, that is the question


This is not about Anwar. we repeat: this is not about Anwar. It is about Najib's survival. Najib has seen what happened to Abdullah Badawi. He knows which this will additionally occur to him as well. And to prevent which from happening he needs to safeguard which he is not seen as weak by 'allowing' Anwar to travel free. He additionally contingency have sure a subsequent GE is not a repeat of a 2008 GE.
THE CORRIDORS OF POWER
Raja Petra Kamarudin
At 4.30pm today (an hour ago during a time we am essay this), a Attorney-General's Chambers filed during interest opposite a preference of a Kuala Lumpur High Court in acquitting Anwar Ibrahim upon a assign of sodomy. At a same time, they additionally appealed a exculpation of Karpal Singh upon a assign of mutiny (but which is another story which we shall talk about later).

This morning, we sent out a couple of Blackberry messages to assorted friends (some of them lawyers as good as a little of them linked to Anwar) telling them to design a AG to record an appeal. The AG has until Monday 23rd Jan to do this as good as given Monday is a holiday afterwards he should do this during a unequivocally ultimate by a finish of today (unless a court is open tomorrow, which is a Saturday).

Most of them were surprised when they received my message. They had assumed which Anwar was clear upon 9th Jan for 'political reasons' -- to concede Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak to 'prove' he is vicious about reforms as good as to 'prove' which a law is eccentric as good as is not theme to government control.

But it is not as elementary as that.

Najib would love for this make a difference to be put to rest. But it is not up to Najib either a AG does or does not record an appeal. There have been some-more absolute forces during fool around here. So ! Najib ha s no preference though to sit behind as good as concede these forces to do what they want to do. If Najib tries to interfere afterwards he competence be a subsequent misadventure after Anwar.

That is a bottom line.

First is regarding a muck ball as good as scumbag AG himself. We contingency not dont think about which he was a categorical player in Sodomy 1 -- a assign which Anwar was additionally clear behind upon 2nd Sep 2004. And a AG is additionally a categorical player in Sodomy 2.

If a AG allows Anwar to travel giveaway for Sodomy 2 -- only similar to Anwar did for Sodomy 1 -- afterwards it would be interpreted as Anwar unequivocally was bound up upon trumped-up charges as good as was given a assume trial. So a AG needs to during slightest get Anwar upon Sodomy 2 to 'prove' which a charges were not fabri! cated.
But did Anwar's exculpation upon Monday, 9th Jan unequivocally come as a startle to a AG?

The military accede to reason theFree Anwar Campaign 901rally upon Monday, 9th Jan 2012 as good as a unequivocally light military participation (compared to which of a Bersih 2.0 rally) gives me a unctuous suspicion which they knew Anwar would be acquitted. They knew Anwar was going to be clear as good as which there would be no riot as good as that's because a military stood behind as good as allowed a gathering.

My concern is not which a military knew. My concern is which Anwar himself knew as good as had told his people he would be acquitted. If Anwar already knew before hand, afterwards because this large show andsandiwarato get 100,000 people to come out in full force upon 9th January?

Hence, a AG is not about to concede himself to be told either he should or should not record an appeal. His credibility is during interest here, if he has any left (incidentally, what people have been additionally observant about me).

Next is regarding a Umno warlords andtaikos. If Najib 'calls off a dogs', so to speak, he would be vie! wed as w eak. Already, many of these warlords andtaikosare observant which Najib is weak as good as which a '3M team' should take over.

Remember what happened to Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, a final Prime Minister, when he 'allowed' Anwar's exculpation upon Sodomy 1 as good as did really bad in a 2008 general election? Well, which will be a predestine which Najib will face as well.

Abdullah Badawi 'allowed' Anwar to travel giveaway for Sodomy we as good as 'lost' a 2008 GE. Najib 'allowed' Anwar to travel giveaway for Sodomy 2 as good as will probably do as really bad as Abdullah Badawi did come a subsequent election.

That would mean Najib would be ousted by a Umno warlords andtaikos, only similar to Abdullah Badawi was.

This is not about Anwar. we repeat: this is not about Anwar. It is about Najib's survival. Najib has seen what happened to Abdullah Badawi. He knows which this will additionally occur to him ! as well. And to prevent which from happening he needs to safeguard which he is not seen as weak by 'allowing' Anwar to travel free. He additionally contingency have sure a subsequent GE is not a repeat of a 2008 GE.

Najib is jammed between a stone as good as a hard place. On a a single hand he would similar to to stir a world which he is vicious about reforms. And what better approach than to instruct a AG to not interest Anwar's acquittal? Certainly which would stir Malaysians in a 40% fence-sitters (atas pagar) category. Some competence even swing behind to Barisan Nasional after their 'protest votes' in favour of Pakatan Rakyat in a 2008 GE.

But which will not stir a 30% hardcore antithesis supporters who will still opinion ABU (anything though Umno). They will still opinion Pakatan Rakyat never mind what Najib does or does not do. More importantly though, which will not stir a 30% hardcore Barisan Nasional supporters, in particular a Umno people. Not usually will they not opinion antithesis come ruin or high-water though they will spin upo! n Najib as good as flog him out similar to they did Abdullah Badawi.

The trouble is with a antithesis supporters themselves. They have given a impression which a antithesis can't tarry without Anwar. They have been observant which Anwar is a categorical as good as single factor uniting a 3 antithesis parties under a banner of Pakatan Rakyat. They have been observant which Anwar as good as usually Anwar can save this country. That is a death judgment a antithesis supporters have given Anwar.

I attempted observant which Anwar is not relevant. we attempted observant which we contingency look beyond Anwar. we attempted observant which there is life a! fter Anw ar. we attempted observant which a cause is some-more vicious than personalities.

And, for observant that, we have been accursed as good as cursed.

It is about Anwar. Anwar is crucial. The antithesis can't tarry without Anwar. Pakatan Rakyat will break up without Anwar. The destiny of Malaysia is in Anwar's hands. Anwar as good as usually Anwar can save a country.

And for which Anwar will have to be accomplished off. Yes, you, we a antithesis supporters. You have done Anwar so important, consequential as good as vicious which a Umno warlords andtaikoswill leave no stone unturned in neutralising him.

Is this fair? Is this just? Is this humane? In war, love as good as governing body all is fair, in box we have not heard.

Sighjust when Anwar suspicion it was safe to go in to a water.
