I SHALL NOT HATE....
AMY GOODMAN: Yesterday marked the second anniversary of the end of Israel’s assault on Gaza. Dubbed "Operation Cast Lead," up to 1,400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis were killed in the 22-day assault between December 28th, 2008 and January 18th, 2009. More than half the Palestinians killed were civilians, over 300 of them children.
Today we spend the rest of the hour remembering the story of just one Palestinian family behind those numbers. It’s one of the better known tragedies of the attack, in part because it unfolded live on Israeli television.
Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish is a well-known Palestinian gynecologist who has spent years working in one of Israeli’s main hospitals. He crossed into Israel daily through the Erez checkpoint from his home in Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza.
During the assault, Dr. Abuelaish was interviewed regularly on Israeli television and radio. Not even Israeli journalists were able to report independently from within Gaza, making Dr. Abuelaish one of the few Hebrew-speaking witnesses who told of the Palestinian suffering under fire.
On January 16, 2009, a day and a half before the official end of the war, Dr. Abuelaish’s home was shelled twice by Israeli tanks. His three daughters were killed—21-year-old Bessan, 15-year-old Mayar, and 13-year-old Aya—as well as his niece Noor. Another daughter, Shatha, and his brother were also badly injured.
Moments after Dr. Abuelaish discovered the bodies of his children, he called his friend Shlomi Eldar, a correspondent at Israel’s Channel 10 News, for help. Eldar happened to be in the studio at the time....
Laughter....Mental Hospital.
In a "Mental Hospital" a journalist asks the Doctor: How do you determine whether to admit a mental patient or not to?
Dr: "Well, we fill a bathtub with water and then give the patient;
(a). a teaspoon,
(b). a glass,
(c). a bucket,
and ask them to empty the bathtub."
Journalist: "Oh, obviously a normal person would use the bucket because its bigger."
Dr: "No, a normal person would pull the drain plug! Please go to bed No.39. We will start further investigations on you!"

You also thought of the bucket, didn't you? Please go to bed No. 40 !
Forward quickly ... There are still some beds available !!!
Hadi to Najib : Breaking is Hard to Do!
In the good old tradition of those good old days when we use to send to each other "messages" through songs requested over the radio...here on behalf of Hadi, I am sending a song to Najib..."Breaking Up Is Hard To Do".....
With thanks to Mariam for the following write up!
Hadi weeps: Breaking-up is hard to do….
The romance between Hadi Awang and Najib Abdul Razak is over.
Yesterday, we were told that Umno-Baru will be naming and shaming PAS in the run-up to GE-14.
Is this how you treat the person you jump into bed with?
You deserve this Hadi. You have again failed the PAS grass roots supporters.
Some men are easily fooled. Others are a poor judge of character.
Sometimes, some couples find out, too late, that they have so little in common.
It is like going on honeymoon with your spouse and you just hate the way he leaves the toilet seat up, or she does not put the toothpaste cap back on.
In this report it is claimed that Kelantan Umno-Baru will highlight the failures of the PAS state government in administering Kelantan since 1990.
Najib’s gestures towards Hadi began with the special trip, to see Hadi, when he became ill and was hospitalised in Turkey.
All those sweet-nothings have turned to nothing. The promises. The “Together we can protect the Malays, and show the nons that in this Muslim nation, Islam will be respected”.
WHAT A BETRAYAL!
The Kelantan Umno-Baru chairman, Mustapa Mohamed, who is also the International Trade and Industry Minister,will talk about PAS’ failure to sort out the problems of land ownership, squatters and the lack of economic opportunities.
Mustapa said, “The people have given PAS the opportunity to develop Kelantan for the past 27 years, yet there have been no changes…if at all there were (developments) they were done by the federal government.”
He will also advise university students not to be easily confused by the Opposition.
HYPOCRITE
It was Umno-Baru which denied Kelantan oil royalties for decades and made the Kelantan people suffer.
PAS’ weak leadership in the form of Hadi and his inner circle, combined with the cold hearted Umno-Baru leadership share joint responsibility for Kelantan’s woes.
Najib wooed Hadi, massaged his ego, then encouraged him to distance himself from Pakatan.
Then, Najib stuck the knife in Hadi’s back.
Breaking-up is hard to do. Padan muka.
Or just wayang to trick us?
Terbaik! Unchained Melody

cakap cakap....May the FORCE be with you and other stories.....
At 69 my life is different from the one I have lived before....not better, not worse...not more interesting .....not more quiet....just different. How different? As different as chalk and cheese! It is now 9.48 AM...let me share with you how my day has been so far.
I woke up first at around 2.30AM with some ideas bouncing in my head....yes that is how ideas come into my head....they enter into my head and starts pinging themselves in and around my cranium until I get to put them onto paper or into my Mac via the keyboard. Once I have done that the normal instincts of a guy awake at 2.30 AM gets the better of me...i.e. I get tired and realise that I am still sleepy....and so I lay me down to sleep.
At 5.30 AM I am up again and this time I know that I need to finish what I started at 2.30AM and this I did within an hour and posted this:
Sirul Azhar Umar : He wants his freedom, he wants the millions he thinks he should have for the murder of Altantuya and for making "those" video, he wants his daughter to join him, and he wants all this as soon as possible. And he thinks Najib will do all this for him! Dream on Sirul...dream on!
And by then I was already wide awake. I did a few more tweeks and changes to some of the things that I have posted before - to update them and to make if more defined and focused on the subject matter I had written about.
Then I tidied up the kitchen which resembled a minor battlefield after the efforts of both my son and me, to make dinner really tasty the night before. Sometimes I do wash up the dishes before I go to sleep but I find that soaking the plates and cooking apparatus the night before, makes for a cleaner and easier cleaning the morning after.
Then feed the cat, no laundry this morning and had a shower and changed into my usual attire....sarong and singlet!
Made myself a cup of organic tea and opened up a packet of Arnotts "NICE" biscuits for breakfast!
All this going in and out of the bedroom stirred my wife from her sleep...and as is usually my habit, every time she opens her eyes I go to her, give her at least two kisses and a "I Love You" and tell her to go back to sleep as it is still early. This morning I have done it already twice...so four kisses and two "I love You"....and at the same time just tuck the blankets around her to make sure that she is warm and comfortable.
And then I sit down at my desk and start work on this blog!
This morning I feel good. I know that a few of you will stop by this blog while having breakfast...and at least that article on Sirul should keep you guys occupied for a few minutes....and so I let my mind wander about what else I should write about today.
To be honest I have been thinking about Najib Razak a lot....from my last conscious moments before I went to sleep last night right up to this very moment. Not as a corrupt prime minister, not as a politician who puts self before anything else and not even as the son of a former prime minister who surely cannot forget whom he has to measure himself against - a former prime minister who is also his father.
I was thinking about Najib having to go back to Rosmah after a hard day at the office!
Come on lah...give the guy a break!
How will you feel, if after a day at the office where everyone acknowledges that you are the Alpha Male not only in the office but in the whole damm country.....you then take the drive home with Police Outriders and UTK personals escorting you with sirens wailing etc etc....and then once you enter the gates of your home you know that within a few moments you will be facing Rosmah!
You have seen what Rosmah does to Najib in Public...
What do you think Rosmah does to Najib when they are alone?
Aiyoyo...I hate to even think what Rosmah will do to Najib when she is really upset! So in a way I was starting to have some sympathy for that guy lah.....of course he deserves it for marrying her in the first place .....but maybe in her younger days she might have been good in bed...and you know the raging hormones in many a young guy busy sowing his wild oats tends to sometime trip them over and they end up with what they deserves...well Najib is one of them!
And then from Najib my mind wandered to Sirul Azhar Umar...the idiot rotting away in detention in Villawood Sydney thinking that he can have his cake and eat it too....and my thoughts went to the video he made wearing a songkok and beginning the video with a salutation to ALLAH....and this guys is a murderer! How stupid can he think ALLAH is? In detention he is dreaming of the millions he thinks will get when he gets out of detention! I would think that I have a far far better chance of winning the lottery than Sirul getting those millions and getting to stay in Australia to enjoy those millions!
1. $656 million – Mega Millions
In March 2012, three winners shared the biggest jackpot in US history, which came to $474 million after taxes. This was the largest cash payout in world history.
2. $648 million – Mega Millions
Two winners won Division 1 in December 2013, sharing in $347.6 million after taxes.
It is now 10.45 AM and I need to write something more serious then these rantings and ramblings of my mind...and so I will cease and desists writing this for now.
Selamat Pagi and my the FORCE be with you!
Sirul Azhar Umar : He wants his freedom, he wants the millions he thinks he should have for the murder of Altantuya and for making "those" video, he wants his daughter to join him, and he wants all this as soon as possible. And he thinks Najib will do all this for him! Dream on Sirul...dream on!
The law in the Australian Migration Act that prevents a person being sent back to be hanged prevails. Sirul Azhar Umar's refusal to mitigate to lower his mia culpa is what is obstructing Sirul's pathway to resolve his detention.
He has the right to engage the full judicial process to assert his claim not to be deported back as per construction of the Migration laws.
This is one pathway from which his Malaysian lawyers has sidelined him for reasons best known to them...and that is, that Sirul Azhar Umar should apply for Bridging Visa E which requires him to mitigate on his inherent criminality under section 501 of the Migration Act.
This will most probably open a Tribunal and the full Judicial process that will hear out his plea to be allowed to be released into the Australian community and begin his life in Australia.
This requires Sirul to come out with the truth and nothing but the truth to plead his Character issue. Robert Chelliah : Australian Migration Agent
The above is a quote from Robert Chelliah, an Australian migration agent, fully conversant with the Australian Migration Act under which Sirul Azhar Umar may be able to find his freedom or continue to be held in Villawood Detention Centre indefinitely.
Let me put that in simple English.
If Sirul Azhar Umar wants the Australian government to release him from detention and allow him to live in Australia, he must convince the Australian Government that when he murdered Altantuya, he was just doing his job.
Why has he not done so?
The simple answer is that Sirul wants his freedom. Sirul does not want to go back to Kuala Lumpur. He wants to stay in Australia with the money he thinks he should have for murdering Altantuya.
He wants his cake and eat it too.
He wants to stay in Australia, he wants money for murdering Altantuya and he wants to be paid for the videos he made while in Villawood to absolve Najib Razak from blame for Altantuya's murder and for telling us that Altantuya is not pregnant!
Between you and me...that idiot has not been paid a single brass farthing for the video that he made. Who then did? Ask his Malaysian Lawyers who took the video back to KL after Sirul had handed it over to them during a visit they made to Villawood!

Well Sirul, here in Australia they do not release convicted murderers.
Here in Australia they do not release convicted murderers who profits from their crime.
And here in Australia the Migration Act quoted by Robert Chelliah will only consider the release of a murderer if he is able to convince the Courts that he murdered Altantuya because it was his job to do so - that he was only following the orders. That in essence he is of good character and that he deserves to be released into the Australian community.
Maybe Sirul does not understand this. Maybe Sirul has been given wrong advice by his Malaysian Lawyers. Maybe Sirul really thinks that somehow he will be released into the Australian Community and also get the money he thinks he deserves to get for murdering Altantuya and for making those videos from within Villawood. Maybe Sirul thinks he will get a pardon from the Malaysian authorities. Maybe Sirul thinks that somehow he or those who are "helping" him will be able to get his daughter to join him and his son, in Australia. Maybe Sirul thinks he thinks that he is a victim of circumstances and that in the end, justice will prevail - that he will go free and go on to live a rich man's life because he murdered Altantuya.
Let me put things in perspective for Sirul.
You have now been detained in Villawood for a considerable length of time. What has happened in that time? The only significant thing that has happened is that you illegally made that video while you were in Villawood, had it smuggled out through your Malaysian Lawyers into Malaysia - a video that helped Najib to claim that he is not responsible for Altantuya's murder. But did that video help your case in anyway? No it did not because you made a fool of the Migration authorities in Villawood by making that video and having it smuggled out of Villawood.....and until today, what ever "rewards" you were promised for making that video has not eventuated.
A few months back you have been served papers by Altantuya father's Lawyers who will be suing you and a number of others for RM 100 million for the murder of Altantuya. This case may be delayed and has been delayed by the powers that be in Malaysia - but sooner or later this case will have it's day in court.....and should you somehow get your freedom from Villawood and somehow be allowed to stay in Australia and somehow have some money to show for the murdered that you said you did.....all this will be frozen by Altantuya's father's Lawyer until their case you is settled on way or the other.
From my sources I am informed that Sirul Azhar Umar is beginning to understand that all that is in front of him now is more time to be spent under detention in Villawood. He is bitter that it is so because he is adamant that his murder of Altantuya was just him doing his job. And now all the people that he has been depending upon to secure his release from detention and all the money they have promised was coming his way has all not eventuated.
He has plenty of time in detention to work all this out in his head. It serves Najib well that Sirul continues to be detained in Villawood. It is time that Sirul understand that in Australia, Najib does not have a say in the interpretation of the Australian Migration Act. That is the privy of the Australian Courts who can decide if Sirul character is good enough to have him release into the Australian community....and the process starts with Sirul applying for Bridging Visa E (as advised of him by Robert Chelliah) and all the attendant process he has to undergo in order to convince the tribunal and if necessary the Australian High Court, that he is indeed a person of good character who had murdered Altantuya because he was ordered to do so.
Now from whom those orders come from would be interesting to find out....but while Sirul is in detention in Villawood, we will never find out...would we? So it does not take an Einstein to figure out why some people in Malaysia wants him to remain locked up in Villawood for as long as possible so that they will not be compromised by what Sirul will say to the Australian Court to plead for his freedom.

PM had no knowledge SRC funds went into his account
Najib Abdul Razak had no knowledge, nor was he informed, that funds from SRC International Sdn Bhd were transferred into his personal bank accounts, Attorney-General Mohamed Apandi Ali said.
He said evidence showed that at all material times, the prime minister was of the belief that the “payments made by him” were made from the Saudi royal family’s RM2.6 billion political donation.
“There is no evidence to show the PM gave any approval for the transfer of monies from the account of SRC International into his personal accounts,” Apandi told a press conference in Putrajaya this morning.
The RM2.6 billion was transferred in 2013 whereas the RM42 million from SRC International was channelled into his accounts in late 2014 and early 2015.
SRC, a Finance Ministry-owned firm, is a former 1MDB subsidiary. [Hornbill Unleashed, January 27, 2016]
Saya nak tanya Apandi:
Sudah berapa orang pejenayah dadah yang dihukum gantung sampai mati walau pun mereka berkata mereka tidak tahu dadah tersebut berada:
dalam beg mereka?
Atau dalam bilik mereka?
Atau dalam kereta mereka?
Kalau saya berada di Western Sahara misalnya dan terlibat dalam satu jenayah curi lah katakan bolehkah saya membela diri saya dengan berkata, "Yang Arif, saya tidak tahu undang undang dinegara ini. Saya tak tahu mencuri itu adalahkesalahan."
Can someone simply plead ignorance as a defence to a crime?
najib pleading ignorance that he doesn't know that his account was being filled up with sums of money could be taken as a serious defense is hell wrong to me!
Damned dumb and completely useless and hopeless!
Kemarok nak terus berkuasa! Langsung tak tahu malu!
