Now that Bersih is over (part 6)


If we have been warned as great as if we come rebuilt for combat, great as great as good. But if we suspicion this was starting to be a Saturday afternoon wander with your babies, children as great as grandparents as great as we were caught all unprepared, then this is not great as great as good. You would be what we would call gunnery unit fodder. And which is really insane of those who programmed this as great as did not inform everybody which Saturday, 28th Apr 2012, was starting to be a Malaysian Spring as great as to grasp which we initial need to take up Dataran Merdeka.
THE CORRIDORS OF POWER
Raja Petra Kamarudin
No, we have not accomplished with my seriesNow which Bersih is over.I am already upon page 14 as great as am substantially usually median to what we wish to say. we unequivocally don't know either this would be regarded as a topic rsther than than an essay. Anyway.
This was what was reported in a Internet today.
Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says a escalated assault of a many brand new Bersih convene was an indication which a antithesis is expecting a vital loss in a arriving General Election, as great as some-more demonstrations as great as some-more assault can be expected.
Saying a antithesis would resort to anything so which it can to seize power, Dr Mahathir said, "Malaysian elections have been some-more purify than those in a authoritarian countries where results have always been patently fixed."
In short, what Dr Mahathir is saying, a antithesis is choosingpilihan jalan rayaas against topilihan raya. (This has been Bersih Committee Me! mber His hamuddin Rais' favourite conflict cry). Translated in to English, which would be:the preference of a streets rsther than than elections. However, a some-more great equivalent would substantially be:the bullet rsther than than the! ballot< /em>.
Now, prior to we talk about a main issue, we would initial similar to to touch upon a partial where Dr Mahathir compares Malaysian elections to a little other countries. Dr Mahathir said,"Malaysian elections have been some-more purify than those in a authoritarian countries where results have always been patently fixed."
Dr Mahathir is vocalization just similar to many Pakatan Rakyat supporters. Malaysia's elections might not be a cleanest in a world, though it is still cleanser in more aged to, say, countries similar to Iraq during a time of Saddam Hussein or Nazi Germany during a time of Adolf Hitler.
Pakatan Rakyat supporters also make use of this same argument. The antithesis might not be a many appropriate as great as there might still be a little crime amongst a antithesis politicians, though a antithesis is still improved than Umno as great as Barisan Nasional by comparison.
we suppose if we can accept this evidence by a Pakatan Rakyat supporters then Dr Mahathir's evidence makes sense as well. Remember me revelation we to be careful how we disagree your box since your evidence can be used against you?
Dr Mahathir is regulating a same evidence which Pakatan Rakyat supporters use. And if this evidence functions in a counterclaim of Pakatan Rakyat as great as to clear a weaknesses in a antithesis then we have to grudgingly agree which Dr Mahathir has a indicate as great as which his evidence is valid.
No, we cannot make use of the'I might not be a many appropriate though others have been worse'argument. What if we were to disagree this way?
I might not urge or go to a mosque though during slightest we don't take b! ribes si milar to a little supposed pious Muslims who urge as great as go to a mosque as great as yet take bribes.
Does which make me a great Muslim or a improved Muslim than those who pray, go to a mosque as great as take bribes?
What about a following arguments?
I might splash though we do not eat pork. we might splash as great as eat pig though we do so with my own hard-earned income as great as not regulating income warranted from bribery. we might take bribes though we compensate zakat (tithe) upon a bribes which we take. we might take bribes though we take usually a small amount as great as not in a hundreds of millions similar to a little people. we might not be a true father though we usually spasmodic have sex with my lassie as great as not every day similar to a little people. we might have sex with my lassie though we compensate her any time we have sex with her so it is not similar to we am taking value of her.
we suppose translated in to those situations a arguments do not sound which kosher after all.
Anyway, behind to a emanate we unequivocally wish to talk about. Dr Mahathir is wailing which a antithesis is perplexing to disintegrate a government. And, according to Dr Mahathir, they have been regulating Bersih to do that.
Actually, this is not a revelation during all. This statement of Dr Mahathir can't be regarded as an expose. we consider many people already knew that. Many who came out for a Bersih 3.0 convene final Saturday were aware which a convene was not just about clean, satisfactory as great as giveaway elections though about bringing down a government.
The quarrel for clean, satisfactory as great as giveaway elections has been starting upon for a prolonged time, prolonged prior to Bersih 1.0 in November 2007. Yet, in spite of all which effort, Malaysia is starting behind rsther than than forward. Things have been deteriorating rsther than than improving. Hence we wrote in an e! ssay fin al month: can Bersih essentially grasp what it wants to grasp if all they do is impetus upon a streets as great as chant slogans? (That essay met with a little really violent responses).
Abdar Rahman Koya, Latifah Koya's brother (Latifah is a PKR leader as great as a single of Anwar Ibrahim's lawyers as great as a part of of his inner circle), pronounced in his essay published inHarakahentitled'In counterclaim of storming a barricades during Dataran':
The truth is which we all went there to mangle a law. A law devoid of satisfactory play as great as justice, a law which is enforced to a wreckage of typical citizens. The barricades restraint our impetus in to Dataran Merdeka have been a clearest as great as many discernible pitch of a government's animosity to a typical public. It would be ridiculous to be there as great as not idle them.
We did not go there to merely shout as great as punch a air. We substantially did so final year, singing in sleet during a gates of Stadium Merdeka. This time, it is critical business. There is no time to waste. We have been talking about tens of thousands of indeterminate names in a electoral roll, brand new voters whose citizenship have been suspicious, a a single after another Big Brother mentality of our tax-funded television channels, as great as many more.
The people of Egypt would not have celebrated a downfalls of their tyrants had they followed a law as great as stayed outside a perimeters of a heavily fortified Tahrir Square. History shows which for change to happen, removing military barricades is a norm, in truth a act has turn a main part of pacific protests to explain behind public places as great as venues denied to them. It does not clear any tall handedness by a security forces.
The Apr 28 convene is not a tea party or simply a 'walk' as a little who participated in it would similar to to think. Those w! ho feel we should not have stormed a barricades during Dataran might as great stay home clicking during a 'like' button of anti-government Facebook pages, or disappear in to a little problematic stadium as referred to by a Kuala Lumpur mayor, in keeping with a mount which DAP leader Tunku Aziz has taken.
Anwar Ibrahim himself admitted a same thing during a press discussion in a PKR domicile upon Monday morning. This is suggested in a 55th second of a following video.
Personally, we have no problems with toppling governments. Since time immemorial governments have been toppled all over a world. Sometimes it is by a list box. Sometimes it is by revolutions. Sometimes it is by armed rebellions. Sometimes it is by foreign intervention. Sometimes it is by assassinations.
Toppling governments is what people do. Even Prophets have propagated a toppling of governments. Even a US topples governments as great as Malaysia is still really great friends with a US. China attempted to disintegrate a Malaysian supervision by a CPM, though failed, as great as we have been great friends with China.
Hence, we do not hold which Dr Mahathir or Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak or whoever it might be is sore which a genuine bulletin of Bersih 3.0 was to disintegrate a government. What they have been unequivocally sore about is which it is a Umno-Barisan Nasional supervision which they have been perplexing to topple. That is a genuine issue.
These people have been not against to those who attempted to disintegrate a Brunei supervision or have been pe! rplexing to disintegrate a Philippines or Thai governments (at slightest in a Muslim-majority 'autonomous' regions). In fact, Malaysia aids them as great as gives them support. Toppling governments is not something which Malaysia is concerned about. It is toppling Umno as great as Barisan Nasional which is a genuine concern.
My usually regard is not either it is right or wrong to disintegrate governments. we am an anarchist so toppling governments is what we do. That is my 'hobby'. My regard is which a little or many of those who participated in a Bersih convene were not aware of a genuine agenda. And which was because they brought along their babies, children, grandparents, etc.
If a objective final Saturday was to go in to earthy quarrel then people should have been warned. People should know what they have been removing themselves in to as great as given a preference either to stick upon a quarrel or stay away if they can't stomach a bloodshed.
The military had been warned. As what a Prime Minister said(READ HERE)and as what Dr Mahathir pronounced (READ ABOVE), a supervision knew which Bersih 3.0 was an try to disintegrate a government. ! Hence we can design a military to have been given instructions to mangle heads.
If we have been warned as great as if we come rebuilt for combat, great as great as good. But if we suspicion this was starting to be a Saturday afternoon wander with your babies, children as great as grandparents as great as we were caught all unprepared, then this is not great as great as good. You would be what we would call gunnery unit fodder. And which is really insane of those who programmed this as great as did not inform everybody which Saturday, 28th Apr 2012, was starting to be a Malaysian Spring as great as to grasp which we initial need to take up Dataran Merdek! a.
That is my usually beef. No a single should be duped in to participating in something under false pretences. If they do participate it contingency be based upon a full understanding of what is starting to happen. And don't make use of Tahrir Square as a parallel. Those who came out upon Tahrir Square knew what was starting to happen. They knew a bulletin as great as it was no hidden agenda. The bulletin was to quarrel as great as to bring down a government. It was not a weekend wander with your family.
