Saudi "Money Diplomacy" In Action - Trying To Corrupt Malaysian PM
Malaysian PM cleared of graft after funds in account declared a Saudi gift :roll:
KUALA LUMPUR | By Rozanna Latiff and Emily Chow
Malaysia's attorney-general cleared Prime Minister Najib Razak of any criminal offences or corruption on Tuesday, closing investigations into a murky multi-million-dollar funding scandal that his opponents had hoped would bring him down.
Najib was buffeted last year by allegations of graft and mismanagement at the debt-laden state fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and by a revelation that about $681 million was deposited into his personal bank account.(wow! that's a lot of moolah by any standards!wonder, what the quid pro quo is - 100% adoption of (Saudi) Sharia Law, instead of the "lite-Sharia" presently prevailing there, proscription of temples, churches and gurdwaras ? :mrgreen:)
But Attorney-General Mohamed Apandi Ali said the transfer was a gift from Saudi Arabia's royal family, adding that no further action needed to be taken on the matter.
Najib, who denied any wrongdoing and said he did not take any money for personal gain, welcomed the attorney general's statement.
"The findings followed a thorough investigation by the relevant institutions, and he has confirmed what I have maintained all along: that no crime was committed," Najib said in a statement.
Opposition party leaders denounced the finding, saying the appointment of the attorney-general by the prime minister in the midst of the crisis suggested a conflict of interest.
(maybe, Najib, offered to "share" the Saudi donation with the AG? :wink: )
Apandi told a news conference no criminal offense had been committed by Najib in relation to three investigations submitted by Malaysia's anti-graft agency.
"I am satisfied with the findings that the funds were not a form of graft or bribery," he said.
"There was no reason given as to why the donation was made to PM Najib, that is between him and the Saudi family," he said.
The involvement of the Saudi royal family is an unexpected twist in the saga over the funds transfer and the troubles of 1MDB, whose advisory board Najib chairs.
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) had earlier said only that the funds were a political donation from an unidentified Middle Eastern benefactor.
Surely but slowly Malaysia is going " the Pakistani way" with a "little help" from the Land Of The Two Holy Mosques :shock:
Apandi said $620 million was returned to the donor in August 2013, about five months after the transfer, because it had not been utilized.
He did not clarify what happened to the remaining $61 million that was not returned or explain why it had taken so long for news of the return of the funds to be released.

So some of the moolah was left untouched ! public pressure ?
Even his fiercest internal critics, such as influential former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, accept that he cannot be unseated.
Najib, who needs to build support ahead of the 2018 election, after scraping to only a narrow victory in the last polls, said the scandal had been "an unnecessary distraction".
"Now that the matter has been comprehensively put to rest, it is time for us to unite and move on," Najib said.
The scandal has shaken investors in Southeast Asia's third-biggest economy and rocked confidence in the coalition led by UMNO, which has held power since independence in 1957.
The ringgit slumped by more than 20 percent in 2015 and has continued its slide this year, weighed down by global oil prices and political uncertainty.
"The attorney-general is satisfied with the findings, but it remains to be seen whether the public is satisfied and will put the 1MDB scandal to rest," said Hak Bin Chua, ASEAN economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
After the scandal broke in mid-2015, then attorney-general Abdul Gani Patail - who had led investigations of 1MDB - was replaced by Apandi, a former judge with strong ties to UMNO.
"The attorney-general should not have been involved in the decision affecting the PM because he was appointed by the PM," said Lim Kit Siang, parliamentary leader of the opposition Democratic Action Party.

Tommy Robinson is another prominent face of this group - Britain First.
A decade or two at most will settle which way Europe goes.
And yes, going by the news coming out of Malaysia, their slip into "greener" pastures is true.

I have seen that video before. BF was founded by BNP/NF/EDL types who were involved with Loyalist paramilitaries in Northern Ireland.

Shouted words will turn to fists
Fists will turn to Broken bottles,sticks and knives, iron bars
And these will lead to firearms and explosives.

The UK/european government just do not know what they have let in, they have no idea of how to handle the situation, they are clinging to the PC mantra "RoP".

Britain First seem to have military members and these sorts will be able to obtain/use firearms.

I was talking to a Jewish friend of mine and he advised that the Jewish community is apprehensive about the new imports.

Muslims are 'not like us'-former racial equalities chief Trevor Phillips
Should also have added that Malsi is not like other religion :mrgreen:
Muslim communities are not like others in Britain and the country should accept they will never integrate, the former head of the equalities watchdog has claimed.
Trevor Phillips, the former chairman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, said it was disrespectful :roll: to assume that Muslim communities would change.
Mr Phillips added that people of certain backgrounds in the UK are not going to change their views ‘simply because we are constantly telling them that basically they should be like us’.
The Muslim Council of Britain has insisted that members of the religion are compatible with UK life,(the author is probably not familiar with the Islamic concept of Taqiyya and believes that the idea of demanding change from Muslims has promoted discrimination.
And last week David Cameron launched a new drive to counter extremism by calling on more Muslim women to learn English ( for this to happen, under their "tradition", spousal permission would be required and most likely will not be given, as most of them are being looked upon as 'baby producers' only !)in the hope that they will turn into more powerful moderating forces.
Muslims, who first arrived in Britain about three centuries ago as sailors working for the East India Company, had a UK population of 2.7million in 2011 - dramatically up from 1.6million in 2001.

Most of the European countries have tight gun control laws. They've had in past the Gun surrender drives thoroughly disarming the society.
So I wonder how (legal/illegal) and what kind of arms would be seen, in whose hands... :roll:
Answer to that actually is going to determine to a large extent, what kind of struggle/conflict it would be (now we surely know there would be a conflict) and who the ultimate winner would be.

Despite government controls firearms are very easy to obtain
IF
you have the right connections. Given that these BF/BNP/NF type groups attract criminals, they will get firearms.

They also have ex military members. Weapons disappear from military stocks quite regulary.

There have been siezures of automatic weapons by the police in the UK.

With regards to mainland europe, the frontiers are impossible to guard totally. Alot of weapons come across the Balkan route regularly.

The Saudis now deny knowing anything about such a lavish gift!

First Norway told the refugees who bicycled into Norway from Finland to "bicycle-off" back to Russia!
Now the Swedes behaving none too Swede-ly! :rotfl:
Sweden prepares to 'expel up to 80,000 asylum seekers'
Along with Germany, Sweden received the largest number of asylum seekers in 2015
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world ... 38421.html
Hardeep Matharu |
Sweden is preparing to expel up to 80,000 asylum seekers who sought refuge in the country last year, according to its interior minister.

In an interview with Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri published today, Anders Ygeman said he estimated that about 60,000 to 80,000 of 2015’s record number of asylum seekers would be expelled and forcibly deported or would voluntarily leave after their applications were rejected.

It is feared by the government that many of those who will leave will go into hiding, according to the newspaper.

“We have a big challenge ahead of us. We will need to use more for this and we must have better cooperation between authorities,” Mr Ygemen was quoted as saying.

“I think that it could be about 60,000 people, but it could also be up to 80,000.”
The minister said the asylum seekers would be removed from the country by charter aircraft, but that the process would take many years. :((
*(Why not transport them by cattle class "cruise liners"? They would be far more comfortable than the rust buckets and ribs that they used to get to Europe in the first place.)

His spokesman Victor Harju later confirmed Mr Ygemen’s estimate, adding that the minister was simply applying the current approval rate to the record number of asylum seekers that arrived in 2015 and that the “rate could of course change”.

This week, Sweden’s Prime Minister Stefan Lofven pledged more resources for the police to deal with the country’s refugees.

The Scandinavian nation reversed its open doors-policy on immigration late last year and has since introduced border controls and identification checks to slow the flow of asylum seekers.

At the end of last year, Sweden's migration minister Morgan Johansson said: “We’re willing to do more than anyone else. But even we have our limits.

“We can handle the 160,000 people who came this year. But we can’t handle it if there are another 160,000 people next year.

“Our whole asylum system would break down.”

Around 163,000 asylum applications were made in 2015 in Sweden, which, along with Germany, has been one of the top destinations for refugees and migrants entering the EU.

On Tuesday, 22-year-old Alexandra Mezher, a staff member at an asylum shelter for unaccompanied children near Gothenburg, was stabbed to death.

A 15-year-old asylum seeker was arrested on suspicion of murder.

Islam and Christianity will fight a 200/300 year fight starting now. We will not face a blowback until one of them wins it outright - most likely Christianity by nuking Muslims back to 7th century, if enough shit hits the fan. All we have to do is to strengthen & arm ourselves to defend against whoever wins it. In the meanwhile, while the Breaking India forces are tied down in their home bases, the nationalist forces here can defang Islam in India & their apologists and other 5th columnists.

Islamist termites eating Europe from the inside would be a welcome development -- they need to understand the threat first hand, so they cut all this preachy BS to countries like India about tolerance, or maybe even that is wishful thinking. If there is one thing that has been constant over the years, it is the penchant for EU/US to preach to everyone else about dressing up decently, while their wardrobe consists entirely of crotchless pants, metaphorically speaking.

Glad EU just imported a whole bunch of wannabe islamists from Syria which has even put the future of EU into question -- that should accelerate internal conflict faster...of course, countries like sweden are also deporting them with the same speed as they "accepted" them. Seems like early days to tell, but a lot of pakis are now "huge fans" of Angela Merkel for the service she has done to EU with her large-heartedness, also allowing a whole bunch of pakis into EU in the process. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of countries.

I heard the same bluster during the 2008 recession in India. People living in India seem to think that we live in an isolated world. If the middle east gets hit, oil prices shoot up and all prices go up in India (and every where else). If there is a glut, all prices go down along with other unpleasant side effects.

Life is not as simple now as to say that let Islam and Christianity fight. If one nukes the other, people in India will also face repercussions. That is the way the world works today.

I have no idea why any country will want to take in Muslims.

Just because there will "repercussions" does not mean, that any such consequence can be avoided, or the EU and others can avoid doing damage to their societies in the long -- that will just reduce their overall importance in the global scheme of things. So what if oil prices shoot up because the barbaric theocracies face the consequences of their global terrorist warmongering? One thing we do know is that there will other to take their place, and as long as there are no new cartels in place (and there may well be), it would still remain a free market for oil All this dhoti-shivering about "things will change" is pretty futile -- things are going to change and go sideways for all sorts of reasons, and life will go on once reality settles to a new normal.

I find the pronouncement “"Girls and young women feel harassed when approached and asked for their cellphone numbers or Facebook contacts," perplexing :-? . Never knew that there was Hadith, Sunnah , Koranic verse or a cultural practice in Mohammadden majority country that said it was fine to ask unrelated Non-Mahram females cellphone numbers and facebook contacts :wink: .

ME Forum reports that Mohammaddens, relative to population size, are over represented in UK’s prison population and even more over represented among those incarcerated for the most serious offenses. ME Forum specifically reports that Mohammaddens make up 14.4% of the UK’s prison population but just 4.8% of the UK’s total population. Further 20.8% of UK’s “Category A Prisoners ie: “those convicted of the most serious offenses” are Mohammaddens

Muslims Disproportionately Found Among Dangerous Prisoners in UK


Mohammadden over representation in prison population is not restricted to the UK alone. An earlier article by the same author points out this Mohammadden over representation is also evident in France and the US:

Why Are So Many Muslims in Prison?

Also this is not restricted to Abrahamic societies. Our own Indic society also has a situation of Mohammadden over representation in prison (Note: Besides West Bengal, Prison Statistics for Gujarat and Mharashtra are presented in the article):

Muslims comprise of 48 % of jail inmates in WB

Saudi Billionaire - Prince Al- Walid "Upset" At Donald Trump :lol:
The Express Tribune > World
Saudi billionaire prince trolls Trump on Twitter
A Saudi prince may have just claimed the throne after a war of words with Donald Trump once again on Twitter.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal stated on the social media website that he’s bailed the billionaire out twice – and suggested the GOP presidential frontrunner might need his help a third time.
The altercation was initiated by Trump, who retweeted a badly Photoshopped image showing the prince with Fox News host Megyn Kelly, calling him a co-owner of the network:
The prince’s tweet included news stories showing he bought Trump’s yacht in 1991, which had been turned over to creditors when he was $900 million in debt, reports Buzzfeed.
He also included a link to a story which claimed Alwaleed bin Talal was part of the group that bought New York City’s Plaza Hotel from Trump in 1995 in a ‘bailout’ valued at $325 million.
The two clashed on Twitter last year when Prince Talal reacted to the Republican presidential frontrunner’s proposal that all Muslims should be temporarily barred from entering the United States.
The prince branded Trump a disgrace and said he should pull out of the race for the White House.
If Trump is elected as POTUS (and it is a big if ), the Prince's goose is surely cooked :P

Teenager exposes India's 'one month wives' sex tourism
A 17-year-old girl has exposed the scale of Islamic sex tourism in India where Muslim men from the Middle East and Africa are buying 'one month wives' for sex. :shock:
Campaigners for Muslim women's rights said while short term 'contract marriages' are illegal in India and forbidden in Islam, they are increasing in Hyderabad, in southern India, where wealthy foreigners, local agents and 'Qazis' – government-appointed Muslim priests – are exploiting poverty among the city's Muslim families.

The victim, Nausheen Tobassum, revealed the scale of the problem when she escaped from her home last month after her parents pressurised her to consummate a forced marriage to a middle aged Sudanese man who had paid around £1,200 for her to be his 'wife' for four weeks.
She told police she had been taken by her aunt to a hotel where she and three other teenage girls were introduced to a Sudanese oil company executive. The 'groom', Usama Ibrahim Mohammed, 44 and married with two children in Khartoum, later arrived at her home where a Qazi performed a wedding ceremony.
According to Inspector Vijay Kumar he had paid 100,000 Rupees (around £1,200) to the girl's aunt Mumtaz Begum, who in turn paid 70,000 Rupees to her parents, 5,000 Rupees to the Qazi, 5,000 Rupees to an Urdu translator and kept 20,000 Rupees herself. The wedding certificate came with a 'Talaknama' which fixed the terms of the divorce at the end of the groom's holiday.
"The next day he came to the house of the victim girl and asked her to participate in sex but she refused. She is a young girl and the groom is older than her father," Inspector Kumar told The Telegraph.
Her parents reassured him they would persuade their daughter and told her she would be punished if she did not. Instead she ran out of their tiny one room home in Hyderabad's Moghulpuri neighbourhood and was rescued by a police patrol. The police arrested the groom, the victim's aunt and the Qazi, and issued a warrant for her parents' arrest – Nausheen is a minor under Indian law and cannot marry until she reaches 18. Her parents are now in hiding but will be charged with arranging a child marriage, 'outraging the modesty' of a woman, and criminal conspiracy.
Inspector Kumar said there are dozens of illegal short term contract marriages in the city, and that the Sudanese man they arrested had come to Hyderabad after a friend in Khartoum told him he had taken a '40 day wife' during an earlier visit.
"If a Sudanese wants to have sex, he has to pay three times more [in Sudan] because there are far fewer girls there, or he takes a second wife. In India the girls are coming for a cheaper rate and they are beautiful. Even if they are only staying for a few days they are doing this kind of illegal marriages for sex," he said.
He said the visitors want to marry because they believe prostitution is forbidden under Islam. Poor families agree to contract marriages because they have many daughters and cannot afford to pay for all their weddings.
Instead, they have a series of one-month contract 'marriages' to fund their own genuine wedding.
Shiraz Amina Khan of Hyderabad's Women and Child Welfare Society, said there were up to 15 'contract marriages' in the city every month and that the number is rising.
"They come to Hyderabad because it has maximum downtrodden families. Thirty to forty per cent of families are going for the option of contract marriages to relieve their poverty. It has to be stopped," she said.
Nausheen Tobassum, who is now living in a government home for girls said in an interview before she was placed in care, that she had filed a complaint to stop the same thing happening to other girls.
"I didn't know what was happening and I agreed in ignorance. They forced me. They changed my date of birth certificate and made a fake one, where I was shown as 24 years old. They exploit girls and that's why I went to police. I had to show courage to go to police against my parents. I don't want to go back to my home, I am scared," she said.
Just wondering if similar laws are in place in Pakiland, where Malsi fervor is quite high and male and female youngsters are exploited left and right !

Green on Green Intra-Mohammadden religion based sectarian violence in Syria. Suicide bombing and VBIED by Sunni Mohammadden group Islamic State targeting Shia / Shiite neighbourhood of Damascus, kills 45.

With prominent Mohammadden political leaders like Pervez Musharraf, Mahatir Mohamad, Asif Ali Zardari, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan etc. claiming that “Islam is a Religion of Peace” how is that a group that names itself “Islamic State” regularly carries out un-peaceful acts that kill co-religionists?:

At least 45 killed in Damascus suburb bombings, ISIS claims responsibility

Arab lady uses the baton of truth to slap some sense into some fool anchor on Arab TV, who gives the standard arab-islamist whining about ISIS not being an arab responsiblity

Another good video on what is wrong with Arabs and their islamic herd mentality from an Arab TV program. Worth a watch.

Marrakesh Declaration

Marrakesh Declaration
Marrakesh Declaration

In the Name of God, the All-Merciful, the All-Compassionate

Executive Summary of the Marrakesh Declaration on the Rights of Religious Minorities in
Predominantly Muslim Majority Communities

25th-27th January 2016

WHEREAS, conditions in various parts of the Muslim World have deteriorated dangerously due to the use of violence and armed struggle as a tool for settling conflicts and imposing one's point of view;

WHEREAS, this situation has also weakened the authority of legitimate governments and enabled criminal groups to issue edicts attributed to Islam, but which, in fact, alarmingly distort its fundamental principles and goals in ways that have seriously harmed the population as a whole;

WHEREAS, this year marks the 1,400th anniversary of the Charter of Medina, a constitutional contract between the Prophet Muhammad, God's peace and blessings be upon him, and the people of Medina, which guaranteed the religious liberty of all, regardless of faith;

WHEREAS, hundreds of Muslim scholars and intellectuals from over 120 countries, along with representatives of Islamic and international organizations, as well as leaders from diverse religious groups and nationalities, gathered in Marrakesh on this date to reaffirm the principles of the Charter of Medina at a major conference;

WHEREAS, this conference was held under the auspices of His Majesty, King Mohammed VI of Morocco, and organized jointly by the Ministry of Endowment and Islamic Affairs in the Kingdom of Morocco and the Forum for Promoting Peace in Muslim Societies based in the United Arab Emirates;

AND NOTING the gravity of this situation afflicting Muslims as well as peoples of other faiths throughout the world, and after thorough deliberation and discussion, the convened Muslim scholars and intellectuals:

DECLARE HEREBY our firm commitment to the principles articulated in the Charter of Medina, whose provisions contained a number of the principles of constitutional contractual citizenship, such as freedom of movement, property ownership, mutual solidarity and defense, as well as principles of justice and equality before the law; and that,

The objectives of the Charter of Medina provide a suitable framework for national constitutions in countries with Muslim majorities, and the United Nations Charter and related documents, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, are in harmony with the Charter of Medina, including consideration for public order.

NOTING FURTHER that deep reflection upon the various crises afflicting humanity underscores the inevitable and urgent need for cooperation among all religious groups, we

AFFIRM HEREBY that such cooperation must be based on a "Common Word," requiring that such cooperation must go beyond mutual tolerance and respect, to providing full protection for the rights and liberties to all religious groups in a civilized manner that eschews coercion, bias, and arrogance.

BASED ON ALL OF THE ABOVE, we hereby:

Call upon Muslim scholars and intellectuals around the world to develop a jurisprudence of the concept of "citizenship" which is inclusive of diverse groups. Such jurisprudence shall be rooted in Islamic tradition and principles and mindful of global changes.

Urge Muslim educational institutions and authorities to conduct a courageous review of educational curricula that addesses honestly and effectively any material that instigates aggression and extremism, leads to war and chaos, and results in the destruction of our shared societies;

Call upon politicians and decision makers to take the political and legal steps necessary to establish a constitutional contractual relationship among its citizens, and to support all formulations and initiatives that aim to fortify relations and understanding among the various religious groups in the Muslim World;

Call upon the educated, artistic, and creative members of our societies, as well as organizations of civil society, to establish a broad movement for the just treatment of religious minorites in Muslim countries and to raise awareness as to their rights, and to work together to ensure the success of these efforts.

Call upon the various religious groups bound by the same national fabric to address their mutual state of selective amnesia that blocks memories of centuries of joint and shared living on the same land; we call upon them to rebuild the past by reviving this tradition of conviviality, and restoring our shared trust that has been eroded by extremists using acts of terror and aggression;

Call upon representatives of the various religions, sects and denominations to confront all forms of religious bigotry, villification, and denigration of what people hold sacred, as well as all speech that promote hatred and bigotry; AND FINALLY,

AFFIRM that it is unconscionable to employ religion for the purpose of aggressing upon the rights of religious minorities in Muslim countries.

Islamism & Islamophobia Abroad - News & Analysis (9-8-2014)

Post by Peregrine »

Muslim population in UK tops 3 million for the first time
England is now home to more than three million Muslims for the first time ever according to new figures.

In some parts of London, nearly half the population is now Muslim, according to detailed analysis by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Based on recent trends they will be the majority in those areas within a decade.

Half of the Muslims in England and Wales were born outside the abroad and more are under the age of ten than in any other age group, indicating their numbers will grow still further.

The three million milestone,which means Muslims represent one in 20 people across the country, will reignite debate about the changing face of Britain amid growing demands for Muslims to integrate further into society.

Lord Green of Deddington, the former diplomat who chairs Migration Watch UK, said, “This is clear evidence of the way in which mass immigration is rapidly changing the nature of our society. The Home Secretary was right in her conference speech to point to the potential pressures on social cohesion.”

The ONS has also identified eight areas around the country where Muslims make up a substantial portion of local population.

Muslims account for 29 per cent of the population in Blackburn; 26 per cent in Slough; 25.7 per cent in Luton; 23 per cent in Birmingham; 20 per cent in Leicester; and 18 per cent in Manchester.

Further, the Muslim population is expected to rise more as a result of the exceptional surge in refugees from Middle Eastern and North African countries trying to reach Western Europe in the previous year.

Concerned about the integration of communities in the UK, Baroness Cox, who is trying to push through a Bill that would outlaw gender discrimination in Sharia courts, said, “Other communities that have come to this country have assimilated, but there is a real concern about these closed communities.”

Many took to Twitter as figures on Muslim population were released in the UK.

Comments : Jinnah wearing his Constitutionalist, Democrat and Secularist Crown is said to have stated "Muslim Minority cannot live under the hegemony of a Non-Muslim Minority at a time when the Muslim Content of Pre-Partioned India was 23%. As such the Muslims in UQ will now demand a number of Muslim mini states!

I am not an islamophobe certainly no Anglophile but I am getting concerned for Britain. And it is not because there are Hindus/Sikhs here. Much as I hate to admit it, but they may be asking for trouble.

Of course most Muslims do just want to get on with their lives and all that.

Of course in their response and concern: UK, Germany and other assorted EU countries will intensify their efforts and spend large amounts of money on converting pagans to see the one true way, and civilize the natives. This will infact make whole world easier to assimilate. Who is the closed community? The enlightened EU carrying the burden to civilize the whole world or simple pious muslims trying to live their simple lives? As long as bigotry and hypocrisy of EU does not stop, they have a very weak case against the latest version of Abrahamic faith.
BTW, when will UK, EU disclose the amount of money, chicanery and effort they spend in civilizing pagans? Oh, only open communities that aren't perfidious do that.
Hapless pagans should have less interest in battle between the brothers of abrahamic faiths, other than to shield from both the predators. No dog in the race for SDREs.
