HEADS THEY WIN, TAILS I LOSE

Raja Petra Kamarudin

Today is my eighth day of detention under the Internal Security Act (“ISA”). When I was detailed on Friday, 12th September 2008, it was supposed to be in respect of articles I wrote in Malaysia Today about our leaders, which was supposed to have confused the public and articles which insult Islam.

It was since Wednesday afternoon, that the Special Branch officers (“SB”) produced the articles and went through all those articles with me. They found that none of the articles insulted Islam. The SB officers told me that it is not so much that my articles insult Islam but, that my style of writing is too sophisticated and thereby Malaysians who might not be of the same intellectual level as myself, could possibly misinterpret what I was trying to say and mistook which I wrote as an attempt to insult Islam.

This morning, I had another session with the SB officers, and pointed out, what they told me yesterday, which is, ISA detention is about intention to commit chaos which would then be detrimental to public order.

Pak Lah under pressure to exit

Fitnah kategori apa kah ini?

Geli sungguh lah aku membaca berita seperti ini di muka hadapan akhbar media arus Perdana v6 ...

Amerika perguna Anwar
UTusan | Wisma Putra memperoleh maklumat bahawa ada pihak tertentu dari Amerika Syarikat (AS) mempergunakan Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim untuk memperkotak-katikkan dan menghuru-harakan Malaysia.

Menteri Luar, Datuk Seri Dr. Rais Yatim berkata, pihaknya dimaklumkan ada rancangan daripada pihak tertentu di AS untuk memastikan Anwar menjadi pemimpin hadapan bagi memudahkan kepentingan negara itu ‘masuk’ ke Malaysia.

Dalam satu strategi penjelasan untuk menangkis tohmahan pihak asing yang menyokong Anwar, Rais berkata, Wisma Putra akan menganjurkan satu seminar yang disertai duta-duta Malaysia yang bertugas di AS, Eropah dan Amerika Selatan di Washington pada 23 September ini.

“Apa sebabnya pihak tertentu di AS begitu taksub nak masuk ke negara ini, bukan kerana sayangkan Anwar, tetapi hendak melihat Malaysia gagal dalam banyak hal.

“Mereka (AS) tak sentuh Thailand, (politik) negara itu lagi teruk (berbanding Malaysia), tapi mereka lebih cenderung kepada Anwar supaya menjadi orang suruhan ketuanya (AS). Dari sudut itu, kita (duta-duta Malaysia) kena tangkis,” kata beliau kepada Utusan Malaysia di sini hari ini.

Rais akan berlepas ke New York esok untuk mengiringi Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak yang akan berada di sana dari 27 September hingga 1 Oktober untuk menghadiri Perhimpunan Agung Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (UNGA).... selanjutnya.

Kenapa lah masih ada berita 'professional' berbentuk begini di siarkan akhbar keseluruh negara. Mungkin kah Utusan bakal menjadi 'pencetus' sekali lagi untuk sebarang tindakan undang undang rimba ? Bagaikan peristiwa baru Teressa Kok bakal berulang.

Dan baca lah tajuk berita yang disiarkan hari ini ... tolong jangan memuntahkan diri
