The Evil That Men Do

It is typical of Mahathir and his boot-licking, knee-bending minions to deal with foreign criticism by 1. calling it undue interference in the country's internal affairs and 2. by pointing to past injustices in the foreign country's history. Thus, the blast of international condemnation over the verdict of Anwar's second trial and his savage fifteen year jail term has been dealt with in a similar fashion with the Malaysian government counter-attacking and raising concerns about blacks in America and aborigines in Australia.

The senile and decrepit Mahathir appears not to understand that we all live in a global community and, hence, can criticise one another, especially on a matter of human rights. After all, don't we all belong to the human family? For instance, if you hear your neighbour beating the life out of his wife, would you ignore her screams or would you try to save her? Can you possibly keep a "non-interference stance?" Also, just because you may have done some bad things in the past yourself does not mean that you have no moral right to take action in the immediate situation.

Nota webmaster:
memang benarlah pendapat anda kerana jika enggan dikritik atau ditegur atau dinasihat, eloklah kita tinggal dalam hutan sahaja bertemankan sang unggas dan kicauan burung. Agama sebenarnya nasihat sebagaimana satu hadis bermaksud, 'Agama itu nasihat'. Namun kepada Mahathir semua orang tak betul walaupun yang mereka cuba menasihatinya atau membetulkan kesilapannya. Jenis apa orang macam ini?
