Malaysia's Deat Leader: Demonstrations "Not Part Of Our Culture"

From Jihad Watch:


Malaysia's Dear Leader: Demonstrations "not part of our culture"





From the Islam equals hypocrisy par excellence department:



Fallout and spin continues in the wake of the thousands who protested against the (Muslim) government in Kuala Lumpur last Saturday. From "Street demonstrations not part of Malaysian culture, says [Prime Minister]", by Mazwin Nik Anis and Rahimy Rahim for The Star, 11 July 2011:





KUALA LUMPUR: Street demonstrations must not be made a part of the Malaysian culture, the Prime Minister said.



The people should not have to live in chaos and uncertainty, [Malaysian Prime Minister Najib] said.





“We are peace-loving citizens and we want to live in a nation that has a bright future,” the Umno president added when addressing thousands of people comprising party grassroots leaders and representatives from Malay-based [Muslim-based] non-governmental organisations yesterday.



Street protests not part of the Malaysian culture, you say? Well then, what is part of Malay, I mean Malaysian culture, Dear Leader Najib? Threats of naked (Muslim) violence against any dissent? Islamic supremacism and intimidation of any and all kufr within Malaysia's borders?



And lest we think that street protests are not "part of Malaysian culture", let us not forget these instances. First, a street protest in 2008 in favor of the Sri Lankan terrorist group LTTE was staged in Kuala Lumpur by Najib's own party in front of the Sri Lankan embassy. Over one thousand attended the event, including women and children. Other protests have been staged by pro-Government groups over the years, including ones in favor of government laws like the Internal Security Act (ISA), and demonstrations by various Muslim supremacist groups against Israel, against cartoons, in favor of Hamas, et al. All were permitted by the police and/or endorsed by UMNO (i.e. the Government). I suppose having street marches that support 'laudible goals' like the Tamil Tigers, Islamic supremacism and the indefinite suspension of civil rights like ISA is less objectionable than the clean and fair elections that Bersih 2.0 had in mind.



So, are demonstrations really "not part of our culture"? It depends on who's doing the demonstrating and what their message is.
