Sandy Hooks: Bring your troops home Uncle Sam

I am deeply sorry for the  Americans who have lost their loved ones in the Sandy Hook massacre  which occurred last week. 

The victims young and old were allegedly killed by the lone gunman using a Bushmaster .223 assault rifle which could be bought by civilians in America:

A file picture of a Bushmaster .223 Assault Rifle allegedly used at the Sandy Hook massacre

The loss of so many innocent American lives by a made in America gun fired by an American gunman is tragic, but have a thought of innocent lives lost throughout the world outside the USA, by made in America weaponry fired by Americans too. 

Read the USA No.1 killing Platform in Pakistan and probably Afghanistan

It begs the question why with so much money spent and so many Americans, Iraqis and Afghans and Pakistani lives lost in the Afghanistan war and not forgetting the Iraq war, not forgetting also that Osama ben Laden is now dead, the United States of America is still not safe! 

Best is for Uncle Sam to pack up US troops in Afghanistan all 68,000 of those brave  men and women and bring them home, the Afghans will never submit to foreigners and they never have, the British Empire, the Communist USSR tried and all failed to subdue the Afghans. These well trained American troops are best deployed to guard US citizens in America from harms way.

After the massacre at Sandy Hooks, only God knows when the next one will happen and how many more innocent lives will be lost. As long as the gun lobby in the US are not subdued, America will never be safe from murdering whackos with guns freely available in that country. 

America, Remember Sandy Hooks, Bring your Troops home. But wait there is a super intresting conspiracy theory here, must read:

Super Viral: Israeli death squads involved in Sandy Hook bloodbath: Intelligence analyst

PRU13: SPR be warned, 'citizen observers' could cause chaos at the balloting centers

The way passed their expired life group called 'Bersih' lead by Ambiga wants to give some life back to their havoc creating ways, seems in the next election they want to have 'citizen observers' to spot their make believe 'PRU13 fraud':

Bersih wants ‘citizen observers’ to spot GE13 fraud

Ambiga, is it not enough that you have inconvenienced the voters by forcing the SPR to have our fingers painted with black indelible ink during the election? 

Now you want your Bersih goons who rioted on the streets on 28 April 2012 whacking policeman and vandalising properties to become 'citizen observers'? 

Please lah Ambiga, do us  peaceful voters a favour, just go to vote at your own constituency and go home wait for the results, the SPR and the Polis are able to ensure a fair and free election without your 'Bersih' goons anywhere near the polling booth. 

Cheating in elections? What the hell are you talking about Ambiga? 5 States fell to your beloved Pakatan of DAP,PKR,PAS in PRU 12 what, is that not proof enough that the elections have been free and fair? You are as clueless about Malaysian elections as that Senator from Australia Xenophon whatever his name.

Its a good thing that SPR replied strongly to Ambiga's shit stirring idea:

EC accuses Ambiga, Bersih of partisan agenda

I think better yet the SPR should lodge a Polis Report about Ambiga's Bersih's undemocratic and partisan intention which would cause nothing but interference to Malaysia's democratic voting process in the next PRU13.

In the 2012 DAP CEC election, DAP Chinese showed their middle finger to DAP Malays

The result of the 2012 DAP CEC Elections will echo down the years and will cement DAP as a Chinese Chauvinist Party which treats its non Chinese members with disdain worst contempt. It seems the UBAH message really got into the DAP delegates' head, the DAP Chinese delegates are saying enough of this political rhetoric of hypocritical Leaders, DAP is a Chinese Party. 

The result also underscores that DAP Chinese cannot stomach a DAP Malay Leader, why I say that, well even Zairil Khir Johari a Chinese with a Malay name was shot down in the votes. The DAP delegates are telling the whole world that DAP is NOT a multiracial party but a party belonging to DAP  Chinese while the Indians or the Malays are just multiracial tokens, period.

The CEC election results showed that DAP's Malaysian Malaysia is a myth, its just rhetorics as the DAP do not practise what they preach and they do not give a damn what other Malaysians say.

If some of you are asking why the DAP is being savaged for the CEC election results, read what Dato' Ahirudin said in his blog:

 bru said...

Anon-Anon, especially those who love to compare DAP and UMNO when it comes to being race-based. Don't go missing the point. We all know UMNO is a Malay party, just as MIC is an Indian based party and MCA is a party for the Chinese. The respective races' names/identities are clearly and proudly spelt out in each party's name (and constitution).

The difference is simple: DAP claims to be NOT a Chinese-based party, not a party that promotes the interest of one race above others, Malaysian Malaysia, etc. Yet the truth/fact is, DAP is all that it claims it is not.

If there had been doubts about this before, the latest party elections would have cleared the air once and for all.

For the Malays in DAP I have this much to say to you...you people deserved every disdain and contempt heaped upon you by the Chinese in DAP. Don't bother to join other parties as I know you guys just love the breadcrumbs and shit thrown at you in the DAP.

If PR insistence on closing down industries producing radioactive waste is taken seriously, Malaysians just as well go back to the stone age

The Anti Lynas, anti anything the BN Gomen do is up to their no good fear mongering routine again, after trying without success to use the Malaysian Courts to stop the Lynas Gebeng from firing up they are now focusing their evil intention on the waste product produced by Lynas Gebeng which by the way;

"The synthetic aggregate Lynas will produce is required to have radioactivity of no more than one becquerel (Bq) per gramme. To put it in perspective, that's the same as the background radiation at a quarry (producing gravel) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) recommended safe level is 5Bq. So Lynas will be producing so-called radioactive material that is less than a fifth of what is still considered to be the safe dosage according to the experts, and less than that produced by a cathode-ray tube television set."

Despite failing to mislead majority Malaysians, a Pakatan/PKR Politician who once misleadingly described the Lynas Gebeng plant as a Nuclear Reactor, read:

EXPOSED! PAS MP SAYS PKR MP FUZIAH SALLEH IS A LIAR!

.....shameless Fuziah is trying her luck again and now tells the public that Lynas Gebeng will be producing harmful radioactive waste that cannot be kept in the country read;

Lynas sets the tone, while BN dances to its tune

There is an open letter to Fuziah after her interview with PAS Tv where she attacked Lynas Gebeng (full article and the open letter can be read here):

excerpt:

"ISSUE 7 – ON RADIOACTIVE WASTE
I wish to draw to your(Fuziah) attention that numerous industries within Malaysia, and around the world, generate radioactive waste. And if your comments are to be taken seriously, by shutting down industries that produce radioactive waste, a vast array of products, goods and services would no longer be available to society.

These include:
* Hybrid cars, energy-saving light bulbs, mobile phones, electricity-generating wind turbines, and almost all electronic and computer equipment

* Petrol and diesel fuel, all other mineral oils and natural gas

* Airplanes, space vehicles, white pigments, toothpaste

* Phosphate fertilisers for agriculture

* Ceramic tiles, porcelain

* Electricity generated by burning coal or geo-thermal sources

* products made from or with an addition of iron, copper, tin, aluminium, zinc, lead, tantalum, etc

* Clean drinking water produced from water treatment.

I am confident that you are “not against progress”; however, in following your own logic, the oil and gas industry in Malaysia should be shut down and people should be banned from using phosphate fertilisers, living in houses with ceramic tiles, driving cars, flying on airplanes, and using any kind of electronic equipment.

This is no exaggeration – simply an extension of your own logic."

if PR and SMSL insistence on closing down industries producing radioactive waste is taken seriously,we just as well go back to the stone age

Enough said.

While Musa is kept busy with his detractors lets not forget Musa's allegation of political interference in PDRM

Things are really hotting up indeed between Retired IGP Musa and his detractors Robert Phang, Millionaire Polis pensioner Ramli even the Ex KL CID chief Mat Zain is not spared:

“I think this Ramli, he has strong influence with IGP [Ismail Omar] and the police...from the outside, it seems like he’s the white knight, saviour of PDRM [Royal Malaysian Police]… while I’m the black knight who is destroying PDRM… the picture has been painted as such....He [Ramli] should answer to the public… how he owns so much riches and wealth when he was still in service. Even I don’t have so much…despite the courts clearing Ramli of failing to declare some RM27 million worth of assets, for him[Ramli], it was still an unresolved question. How could a police officer only holding the post of CCID director amass such money?"

Ex-IGP Tan Sri Musa (Source FMT here)

"He also denied former KL CID chief Mat Zain’s claim that he (Musa) had fabricated evidence, relating to three reports on the injuries Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim received while in police custody in 1998.

Mat Zain had said: “I state, yet again, that I am willing to declare under oath in any judicial proceeding or before any judge that there was indeed an agreement between [Attorney-General Abdul] Gani [Pattail] and Musa to use Dr Abdul Rahman [Yusof] to fabricate the three so-called special reports on the injuries Anwar received while in police custody in 1998.”

Musa said he has no knowledge about any such reports, declaring that he has no power to order any doctor to do anything.

“He [Mat Zain] is the one who investigated the case. He should have the reports,” he said.

He said Mat Zain, along with Ramli, was trying to discredit him."

Source FMT here

Seems that Robert Phang had an axe to grind with TS Musa too:

"Musa, who was the country’s top cop from 2006 to 2010, claimed that Phang held grudges against him after he refused to accept Phang’s offer to be his advisor.

“During my tenure as the IGP, he[Phang] always come up to me and offered himself to be my advisor. I refused, wondering why do I need an advisor when I’m still able to think for myself?” said Musa."

Source Mole.my here

And Robert Phang has now been given 3 days to apologise to Malaysian Crime Watch Group (My Watch) or face a defamation suit, read the story in the Mole.my here.

Seems the skeleton, well many skeletons are coming out of the closet which I hope one day in future will lead to a independent PDRM with officers of the best calibre and high integrity. 

However, we musn't forget that all these backbiting among retired high ranking Polis Officers started when TS Musa Hassan raised once again the specter of political interference in Polis matters which beside one or two distracting comments by the KDN Minister have so far met with a wall of official "elegant" silence from the KDN Minister, KDN Officials and the current IGP. 

If the powers that be thought that  feisty TS Musa Hassan will go away quietly into the sunset after he let off steam, and to have his comments very nicely swept under the carpet later, then,  the powers that be better think again....the Pakatan Opposition will soon join the fray if they have not started already: 

Backbiting affecting police’s crime focus, say lawmakers

This is one great election issue when the Pakatan don't have much issue left to take up against the BN going into PRU13.

Chinese Still against Lynas Gebeng plant?

Very interesting post from Dato' Rocky Bru's: 

Lynas: A report by the Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining

The Lynas Gebeng plant is going to be one of the best high technology investment our country would have, it will not only generate much high income for Malaysians but will put Malaysia on the map as a rare earth processing centre, rare earth necessary for the most of the green technology products made now and the future. Sadly the opposition to the Lynas Gebeng has temporarily sullied Malaysia's reputation as a safe haven for FDIs. 

Dato' Ahirudin rightly pointed out in his blogpost:

"What the author hasn't touched on is the political radiation inflicted on the parties involved in the Gebeng facility. And just as well, too, because this is not unique to Lynas. Political poison is released on about every major project, from AES to the latest skyscraper."

The dogged opposition to the Lynas Gebeng plant has taken a new twist too:

Chinese still against Lynas plant, say activists 

The Chinese are against the Lynas plant? but why? Singling out Lynas Gebeng when there are many other petrochemical plants and other plants already in operation for decades that can seriously harm our environment without proper safety mitigation measures does smack of hipocrisy isn't it? 

Anyway lets just hope that this opposition to Lynas Gebeng is not being dominated by one race only, it will give the wrong signal to the majority Malaysians. Remember Newton's Law? For every action there will always be a reaction, so to oppose is fine but oppose with scientific factslah and not because of political reasoning, if you do, you are actually pouring sand into other Malaysian rice bowl, the workers of Lynas, their family members and don't forget the very many suppliers and contractors to the high tech plant also.  

I hope those SMSL and himpunan Hijau type understand where they are going with their opposition to Lynas Gebeng. Definitely Pakatan Rakyat won't win the votes of the majority with this thinghy.

Here is the must read Nat Geo article as recommended by Dato' Ahiruddin link:

Reconciling with Rare Earths in Malaysia

No smoke without fire and silence is not an option

Ex IGP dropped a bomb shell again last week during the UMNO General Assembly, I said again because he did said almost the same thing when he retired in 2010 read : Campurtangan Tangan Siasatan Polis: Jangan Ulang Feel Anwar

Read more here

I  think all matured citizens would want a Good Government and Good Governance and demands the highest standards from our Civil Servants who must be free from any political interference whatsoever, especially if it involves the integrity of our nation security keepers, the PDRM. The last political figure in Government who interfered with Polis work was the then Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia Anwar Ibrahim who was charged in 1998 for abuse of power and was jailed for that offence. So any allegation of interference by politicians or  the powers that be on Polis matters must be taken seriously.

While many of us are waiting for a official response from the KDN Minister, KDN Ministry officials or the current IGP himself in the form of a press statement or even a Press Conference..hmm, reminds me of the 'golden' Pak Lah days when Silence is 'elegant', but anyway  many have come out of the woods to pour scorn on TS Musa, some examples, see how "killing the messenger and  ignore the important message" trick is being employed, here are some notable ones:

TS Robert Phang came out with this lively post: MUSA HASSAN IS A TWO FACED LYING FRAUDSTER ...ya right and an SD is no proof of wrong doing alsolah its just one man's written word against someone else, Tan Sri.

What takes the cake is this; Ex Top Polis Officer and current millionaire pensioner Ramli demonizing Ex IGP Musa read: Ramli Yusof vs Musa Hassan a case of 'mengata dulang paku serpih, nak mengata orang takut-takut dia yang lebih'. 

The allegation by Ramli was promptly denied by TS Musa here who even asked the MACC to investigate.

And for my friends who thinks that there maybe a konspirasi between TS Musa Hassan and Anwar because of a dropped suit and a rumored phone call, think again, TS Musa was the Polis Officer in Charge in 1998 whose investigation was the foundation of the various charges of abuse of power and sodomy against Anwar which brought Anwar down from almost being our Prime Minister to  imprisonment  in Penjara Sg. Buluh. There is no love lost between TS Musa and Anwar that is for sure. This is not politics where there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies. Read from the FMT:

No conspiracy against Anwar, says Musa again

Teoh El Sen

 | December 6, 2012

The ex-IGP attempts to clear the air over lingering suspicion that he was involved in a government conspiracy to set-up Anwar Ibrahim in both Sodomy I and II.

PETALING JAYA: Former inspector-general of police Musa Hassan has reiterated that the Sodomy I and II cases were not part of a political conspiracy to bring down Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim.

Musa, who was the investigating officer of the 1998 case and was serving as the IGP when the more recent 2008 allegation by Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan surfaced, told FMT that both were “straight forward cases.”

Responding to claims that he was a party to fabrication of evidence in the first sodomy case, Musa stressed:”There was no fabrication of evidence. He [Anwar] was charged in court.”

“And then I sued Anwar in court [on his allegation of fabrication] and he wanted me to settle with him. So what fabrication was there? The case was dropped because he wanted us to settle it out of court. So there is nothing more.”

Asked why he agreed to a settlement when he claims to be right, Musa replied: “Because to me [if] that person feels that there is no point to [continue with it] then [it shows] that I am not involved. Perhaps he has realised that I am not involved that’s why he wants so settle [out of court].”

Musa was referring to his recent decision to drop a defamation suit against Anwar, who lodged a report against Musa in 2008 accusing him and Attorney-General Abdul Gani Pattail of fabricating evidence in the 1998 ‘black eye’ incident and the Sodomy I trial.

PKR, who had since then insisted that there was no out-of-court settlement and that it was Musa who initiated a withdrawal, had said that Musa’s action was “proof” that there was a government plot to fabricate evidence over the Sodomy I charges.

Musa’s lawyers had cited a “misunderstanding” over the ex-IGP’s role in the 1998 “black eye” incident where Anwar was assaulted by the then IGP Abdul Rahim Noor while in police custody.

On his role in Sodomy II, Musa also rubbished claims that he was a “main actor in the script”.

“Why do they say I am doing the script when it is Saiful who lodged the report, not me. I didn’t want to see Saiful even then. He [Saiful] even said in court that I scolded him [when he tried to contact me], that [I told him] if you have a problem, you lodge a police report. So I’m not involved in any conspiracy here. What are they talking about?” he said.

FMT: Do you know any of any of these ‘script writers’ who were involved in the Sodomy II then?

Musa: It is a straight up case. [A police report was] lodged by the complainant.

Wouldn’t you say there were political reasons behind it?

That you have to ask them because I don’t know the facts about who he [Saiful] saw.

I’m sure you would have certain information from your SBs at the time.

To me if it is very material that he met someone, then that someone must go to court and give evidence, that’s all. So if a person doesn’t give evidence in court, then is it my conspiracy? Come on.

Are you referring to Anwar’s position to actually not give evidence in the witness statement but to give a statement at the dock?

No, not Anwar. There was an allegation to say that they met the prime minister right? Then the prime minister will have to go to court if it is deemed that his evidence is important. Of course as the prime minister anybody can see him to complain, because he is the PM, but what I feel is that he should [have] advised him [Saiful] to lodge a police report, that’s all. Source FMT here.

Which takes us back to the start of the issue, so when is the KDN Minister, KDN or the IGP is going to give a categorical denial against TS Musa's allegation? Silence is not an option, the integrity of the Polis force is at stake.

note:

An ex KDN Minister has issued a denial read TS Syed Hamid Albar's here. Thank you Tan Sri.

Justice has been served, Corperal Jenain set free

Today Polis Corperal Jenain Subi was set free by the High Court, when his conviction at the Sessions Court for causing the death of Aminulrasid Hamzah in 2010, was overturned by Justice Abdul Rahman Sebli.

Notable Quotes:

Judge Abdul Rahman concluded it was clear that the appellant had intended to shoot at the car to immobilise it.

“No prima facie case had in fact been established against the appellant and his defence should not have been called,” 

The judge also said the loss of life was unfortunate but the police must not be blamed for the deceased’s death.

Read the story here.

I have always thought that while it is a tragedy that Arwah Aminulrasyid had died from Polis gunfire, the Polis officers had  no way of knowing who they were chasing that fateful night and as far as they were concerned after giving due warnings and the car in front would not stop, the Polis must presume that they are chasing armed and dangerous criminal. 

Today, I believed justice has been served for Corperal Jenain and the PDRM.

Please read this sign, it could save your live and others too

Self explanatory sign board for those politicians and people who are anti AES or anti anything on the road designed to save lives:
