UMNO Ulama's Racism is revolting
by Dr Ahmad Farouk Musa as well as Ahmad Fuad Rahmat
The demonstration during Merlimau, Melaka by anti-BERSIH, UMNO desirous youths is evidence of the augmenting grade to which danger as well as assault is apropos the frequent strategy by sure players in the ruling power structure.
It was transparent which the threat as well as danger were directed opposite those who were merely sportive their approved right to voice their opinions on the policies of the current government.
Reports indicate the presence of Police officers during the place as well as nonetheless because did they not stop the demonstration from happening? Is it not their duty to ensure the reserve as well as confidence of all citizens, in any case of their celebration affiliations?
Will Malaysia's Muftis who so frankly spoke out opposite BERSIH additionally speak out opposite the Merlimau riot? Why do you not listen to these Muftis right away whinging about the boundary of freedom as well as the importance of law as well as sequence in Islam?
Or, have been the Merlimau rioters someway exempted from the standards of good conduct simply by virtue of their racist-fascist ideology as well as ethno-nationalist celebration affiliation?
Will you listen to defamation as well as obsession of what happened in Merlimau by the mainstream media? Or will their pages as well as airtime be channeled entirely towards demonizing the hard work of Malaysians from all races who have been demanding genuine approved reforms?
Those who have been some-more alert to the genuine workings of Malaysian politics will righteously review those questions with cynicism. The point which cannot be ! denied i s which you have been witnessing is one after another terrorization to relieve approved dissent.
BERSIH was the transparent set of demands for electoral reforms which have nonetheless to be
met. What happened in Merlimau preceded by butt exercises, sexist as well as extremist danger as well as nuisance opposite trusting Malaysian adults is nazi desirous gushing from uncontrolled uncertain thugs.
It does not need any one the smallest minute of preparation to be extremist as well as anti-democratic, as well as nonetheless racism as well as anti-democracy have been the central values which have been all the time espoused by the ruling party.
It is additionally transparent which the goal is not so much the note of Malaysian adults but their subjugation in stupidity so which the elite of which celebration can go on to oversee as well as heighten themselves with impunity.
Racism was even legitimised by the scholar of Ulama' Muda UMNO recently who said which Prophet Muhammad was racist. It is not surprising afterwards to see the escalation of prejudiced attitudes as well as policies which foster the sure race over others given which is right away endorsed by UMNO religious scholars themselves.
As an Islamic organization, you have been deeply saddened as well as angry during the complicity of sure religious total in tolerating UMNO's consistent recourse to thug assault as well as intimidation. Marx said which sacrament is the opium of the people. In Malaysia, you can right away see who the dealers are.
