Our beloved prime minister, with his personal attack against Ambiga Sreenevasan (wow, she is an enemy of Islam), shows that when the going gets tough, people like him resort to the religion card.
Why should anyone believe that he is PM of all Malaysians, or even that he actually believes that non-Malays/non-Muslims have a stake in this country?
He felt threatened by a sari-wearing lawyer and his true instincts surfaced. Is it any wonder that, in this administration, the likes of Ibrahim Ali, Ezam Nor and Zulkifli Nordin prosper?
Then we have Muhyiddin Yassin who goes for the oldest trick in Malaysia: When in doubt, blame some foreign power. He said today that the Bersih rally would be used by foreign powers to move into the country and cause instability.
Pray, tell me, which foreign power? The US government, which this administration so shamelessly courts despite its horrible record in the Middle East, or China, which Muhyiddin has been wooing for investments?
Or maybe the politician from Johor who was selected by Umno to be the DPM is talking about Australia, Malaysia’s new refugee scam partner.
Or should Malaysia fear India? Even if the Bersih rally does not take place, we owe its organisers a debt of gratitude because we have finally seen how the politicians who control our destiny behave.
We have seen them without their public relations handlers and we have seen their true selves.
It is not a nice sight. And I have not even started talking about Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
