SHOOTOUT AT HIGH NOON Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew’s SNUBS Naib has delivered a thundering slap by not including Dr M on the list of persons for LKY

- Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad says he does not see any reason for Singapore’s Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew to meet with himYou can almost feel Tun Mahathir's venom and anger in these statements. Naib has delivered a thundering slap by not including Dr M on the list of persons for LKY to meet. Maybe LKY felt no need to meet this has-been.


“I don’t see why he would request to see me – I am a nobody,” he told reporters when pressed further on should there be a request from Lee to see him.


Lee also spoke about bilateral cooperation. He made the same point that he had earlier conveyed to Najib.

“I emphasised to both that cooperation has to be long term, not chop and change, and it has to be across the board, you can’t just pick and choose,” he said

Why Is Lee Kuan Yew Strutting The Length and Breath of Malaysia? - By Matthias Chang (12/6/09)PDFPrintE-mail

To many anti-colonial fighters of the third world, Lee Kuan Yew was contemptuously referred to as “ivory-skin Englishman”. He was and still is perceived as the lackey of the British power elites.

Malaysians can still recall the manner in which Lee Kuan Yew tried to wrest political power from Tunku and how he tried to supplant the MCA as the political party representing the Chinese. He was derisive of Tun Tan Siew Sin as not being a pure Chinese and as such not fit to represent the Chinese community.

However, the Chinese saw through his devious schemes and rejected emphatically PAP’s politics. Lee Kuan Yew thought he could out-maneuver Tunku and become the Prime Minister of Malaysia. But Tunku beat him at his own game and he was expelled from Malaysia.


Considering himself to be intellectually superior to Tunku, he could not accept that he was defeated so resoundingly by Tunku. He was devastated. When he announced that Singapore would be separated from Malaysia, he broke down uncontrollably. This was only to be expected as his dreams of being the Overlord of Malaysia, comprising of Peninsula Malaya, Sarawak and Sabah was shattered and he has to be content with being a bully of a city state!

Given such a traumatic experience, and possessing a vindictive disposition, it is a given that Lee Kuan Yew would harbour a secret agenda against Malaysia. And over the years, he has sowed and continues to sow discord among the races in Malaysia.

It was reported that one of the reasons for his recent visit to Malaysia is to find out how the Chinese are faring in Malaysia.

What arrogance!

The Chinese community in Malaysia has no need of a Lee Kuan Yew to meddle in its affairs or wellbeing. The Chinese community working with the other communities is more than able to look after themselves.

Why is there a need for such an elaborate programme – meetings with the prime minister, the deputy prime minister, an audience with the Agong, the Sultan of Perak and more meetings with other political leaders?

The picture of Lee Kuan Yew and the leaders of MCA displayed in the front page of Sin Chew Jit Poh says it all – why, may I add, was he wearing a traditional Chinese attire? And why were the leaders of MCA so willing to honour him when he had tried to topple Tun Tan Siew Sin at a critical juncture of our history?

I take the view that had Lee Kuan Yew succeeded in toppling Tun Tan Siew Sin, and PAP supplanted the MCA, social turmoil would have ensued and we as a nation would not have been able to achieve our present status.

No country is perfect and devoid of problems. We had our fair share, but we are better off without Lee Kuan Yew.

Malaysians must be vigilant. Lee Kuan Yew cannot be trusted and while Singapore is our neighbour and a member of ASEAN, we must never forget that Singapore has never ceased to dictate terms to Malaysia whenever she perceives Malaysia as being weak.

Do not forget the 1997 financial crisis and how Singapore treated us when we were in need.

Today, Singapore is reeling under the weight of the global financial tsunami, but Lee Kuan Yew is behaving as if Singapore has a bottomless vault of financial goodies, ever ready to invest in Malaysia as a favour.

We don’t need Singapore’s money!

Malaysia doesn’t need any favours from Singapore!

And Malaysians have no need for a Lee Kuan Yew telling us how to develop our country!

And the tyrants looked at them and desired what they owned
And plotted and planned to take it.

“Dispossess them!”
“Massacre them!”
“Use all necessary force to bring them to submission!”

And the dispossessed cried for mercy.
Yet, no one heard.
“ reformasi” They yelled.

And the tyrants cried “ISA THEM KUGAN THEM!”
“Starve and beseige them!”
“Use all necessary force to bring them to submission!”

And to the world the tyrants raged: “Security!”
And the sycophants cried in defense of the tyrants.

Then Conscience spoke and asked.
“Who will secure the starved, beseiged and dispossessed?”
Silence.
“Accountability!”

Corrupt political leadership does not attractive men of outstanding integrity; neither can it be expected to enact effective laws to maintain high integrity in government. That truism has practically reduced our options to only one – a change of political leadership. That is, if we are still serious about restoring the rule of law and the pursuit of excellence for the country. ”He is not immune from action under the law. Investigation can be made if he had acted beyond the scope of his official duties,” MACC’s Legal and Prosecution Division Director Datuk Abdul Razak Musa told reporters.

Fear is, and has always been, the hallmark of political tactics. The people will only willingly submit to tyranny if they are made to believe that without government a fearful state of affairs might obtain. No other emotion can bypass rational argumentation, grab allegiance and push people to violence like fear.
Since love and fear can hardly exist together, if we must choose between them, it is far safer to be feared than loved.
Niccolo Machiavelli, The Prince
Machiavelli was writing for kings and emperors. Nowadays, of course, politicians have the loyalty of the people, and no longer need to be feared. Rather, they use fear for the further purpose of expanding their power.
The very existence of government is predicated on fear, the fear of chaos and general violence of all against all. Never mind that government itself is the greatest creator of chaos and violence; never mind that Anarchies have always been less violent than their contemporary societies; government propaganda and Big Media have been successful in implanting the belief that Anarchy equals chaos and violence by constantly making this correlation. Now we are stuck with the laughable absurdity of a society of people who fear that, if we remove the entity which causes wars, outlaws victimless crimes and takes over vast swaths of said society, we will have widespread violence and chaos.
The dishonest usurpation of the Articles of Confederation, and its thuggish replacement by the US Constitution (a document which deserves a place alongside the Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf as rallying points for the enemies of freedom), was based on fear of widespread chaos, using the Shay Rebellion as the case in point. Very often, fear is generated by taking one or a few isolated cases and letting people’s imagination run wild. “What if we get rebellions all around? What will we do without a strong central military to protect us?” These scenarios are always outlandish, but as long as people believe that it might just happen, they will fear it, no matter how improbable it is (see, for instance, the tactics of global warming fearmongers).
Now think of all the areas in which government takes over, intervenes or legislates, and you will find a tactic (if not all tactics) based on fear. Fear of terrorism, fear of other “countries,” fear of “immigrants” taking over, fear of losing one’s culture, fear of being attacked, fear of being sick, fear of dying, fear of accidents, fear of having to take responsibility for one’s actions, fear of losing control over other people.Fear, of course, is rarely the actual reason underlying any government policy. The actual reasons for government policies are generally more mundane: corporate favours, popularity, interventionist foreign policy, expansion of the tax base, control over prevalent ideas, and so on. But fear is the most powerful tool that they possess in order to get those policies accepted and supported by the general population.
Take the “War on Terror.” The WoT has been a tremendously powerful and efficient tool in expanding the power of government. Why? Because the fear tactics underlying it became ridiculously easy to implement after 9-11. This operation made it easy for everyone to swallow the party line that “terrorists want to kill you for your freedom.” Never mind that the 9-11 attacks came after a concerted strategy that aimed to attack US military assets in the Middle East, and that the enemy of the terrorists is the interventionist policy of the US Empire, not “our freedom.” Never mind that we are not free. Never mind that the attacks that came afterwards had absolutely nothing to do with stopping terrorism.
Most FEAR MONGERING start with government lies and deceit, and the 9-11 attacks really illustrated the power of fear. Unthinkingly, the American public bought the lies completely, because they were gripped with fear and the desire for revenge. Fear overrides discourse and thought. Fear is primal, visceral, animalistic, a similar overwhelming feeling to the one primitive man must have felt when he faced a saber-tooth tiger. A man experiencing fear either flees or fights. If he cannot fight himself, then he will cheer on those who can. Thus the terrorists’ strategy of sinking the US government in war debt predictably won out, because their terrorist attacks were so spectacular that they had the expected effect.

Fear is, and has always been, the hallmark of political tactics. The people will only willingly submit to tyranny if they are made to believe that without government a fearful state of affairs might obtain. No other emotion can bypass rational argumentation, grab allegiance and push people to violence like fear.



No, Mr. President. (Groans) The former Civil War president MAHTIRISM card, Mr. President. When criticized for unilaterally implementing controversial executive orders during war, Honest Abe simply responded, “Actions which otherwise would be unconstitutional, could become lawful if undertaken for the purpose of preserving the Constitution and the Nation.”

PRESIDENT

And I am a preserver with a purpose, aren’t I?

SOS Candy

A mighty preserver!

GONZO

A purposeful preserver!

MUSANG

A mighty purposeful preserver, Mr. President!

PRESIDENT

No! Wait – You’re confusin’ me.

NARRATOR

A sudden flash of anger and confusion, closes his eyes, sees his mechanical horsie, takes a deep breath, and calms down.

PRESIDENT

Now “I can only speak to myself.” —

VP

For yourself.

PRESIDENT

For yourself!

SOS Candy

For myself.-

PRESIDENT

For myself, when I say this: That it’s in our country’s interests to find those who do harm to us and get them out of harm’s way

MUSANG

Harm those who intend to harm us and get innocents out of harm’s way!

PRESIDENT

Harm innocents who intend to harm us and get harm out of innocents’ way, exactly. And in the past 5 years, that’s exactly what I’ve sincerely tried to accomplish in this Crusade –

VP

War on Terror, Mr. President! No more crusades, remember? War on Terror!

PRESIDENT

Exactly, the Reign on Terror!




DUNKIN

Man up and call it like it is, Mr. Crusader, I mean, sorry, Mr. President! I, for one, stand behind your noble Crusade and encourage your clash with these inferior civilizations. Do you know why you’re in the White House, Mr. President?




(Passionately says the next line, and then silences them and tells em to sit with one wave of his hand) Revenge of the Sith, Gentleman!!! The beautiful yet tempestuous mistress known as “His-Story” has proven time and again that most people would rather feel safe than be free. We need to use our, excuse me, I mean, the Executive powers to the hilt. Restraints and liberties be damned, gentleman and Candy. History doesn’t rewards pansies and pussies! (Towering thud of his fist lands on the Japanese made conference table). The American public demands results and results is what we’re gonna give ‘em. It’s with great pleasure that I unveil my latest strategic masterpiece – “Kazuo!” (Claps twice like the “clapper” commercial and jumps a girlish jump)PRESIDENT

For myself, when I say this: That it’s in our country’s interests to find those who do harm to us and get them out of harm’s way.

It’s raining terror?

VP

(Visibly annoyed) It’s not raining terror, Mr. President. It’s not the Reign of Terror, Mr. President. (Becomes passionate and possessed) But, now, it is The Reign of Man! (Firmly and violently shakes his right fist)

PRESIDENT

(Confused) It’s Raining Men?

SOS CANDY

(Suddenly jumps up and throws her hands in the air) Hallelujah!

PRESIDENT

(Starts getting into the cheesy, Disco classic and nodding his head) It’s raiiining men!





Emperor- excuse me – Mr. President, I regretfully inform you that your poll numbers are indeed at their lowest ebb. The country is nearly divided over your foreign and domestic policies, and your opponents and critics, especially the abolitionists and abortionists in Congress, view you as incompetent, overburdened, and worst of all weak. However I have one magic word that gets us out of this rabbit hole: “Aliens.”

PRESIDENT

E.T. the friendly Extra Terrestrial? Sigourney Weaver? Close Encounters of the Third Kind? A-ha! Invasion of the Body Snatchers!

KAZUO

Close, Mr. President, close, but…. not exactly. How would you like it if there were no guaranteed limits on your broad executive and constitutional authority to wage war with these pernicious “aliens”? How would you like to possess the legal ammunition to use military force without the interference of nosy abolitionist Congressman seeking review and censure of your actions?

PRESIDENT

(Looking at his empty plastic pistols) I reckon my guns could use the extra ammo.

KAZUO

And with my new job as Deputy assistant attorney general (Looks to Cheney for a nod of approval – Cheney gives it to him. Gonzalvez visibly annoyed), I will work hand in hand with Gonzo and the rest of the Administration to ensure you receive the necessary ammo for your Spanish pistols.

GONZO

Now, wait just a goddamn minute! (Quickly) Sorry, Mr. President. (Makes quotation marks in the air) “Damn” minute. I can tolerate one more (Points to Candy) but three is definitely a crowd!

SOS Candy

The Mexi-cant is correct. Adding a Chinaman next to a Black Woman and an Italian Mexican is like the beginning of a bad joke that can only end badly. Come on now, peoples! This isn’t the frikkin’ United Nations!
