Karpal Singh, the Pakatan Rakyat's Mahathir Mohamad

Malaysiakini : Karpal To Anwar, "Step Down As Opposition Head"

Karpal Singh, DAP's Chairman in his latest salvo, blasted Pakatan Rakyat's leader Anwar Ibrahim for being responsible for the fall of the Perak Government led by Pakatan rakyat where DAP has the majority state seats and Karpal also wants Anwar to resign.

Karpal Singh's  wildcard dictum must be seriously considered by DAP itself whether he is fit to head the DAP as his repeated threats from severing ties with PAS over the hudud laws ( a rhethoric) is neccessary? Others (commentators in blogs) are in the opinion that Karpal is senile?

Constitutional expert professor Abdul Aziz Bari told Malaysiakini that " Hoping is constitutional and legal". He added - "Simply don't bribe, kidnap or intimidate members of parliaments or State Assemblypersons". "Let's them decide on their own freewill"

Karpal Singh must be brought into memory land that if it wasn't for Anwar Ibrahim, there wasn't even Pakatan rakyat who by Anwar's leadership managed to form a coalition comprising PAS, DAP and PKR.  And if the coalition had not manifest, no single party can form a single Government in the four States grabbed over by the Pakatan rakyat's coalition in the 12th Gemneral Election.

I am really urging YB. Lims (Senior and Junior) and all DAP's hierarchy that Karpal Singh days as Chairman is numbered. His fiery criticism has brought more constraint to the coalition that any good as the voters' wish is for PR to wrest over the federal Government. 

Even DAP's parliamentary leader Uncle Lim was surprised to hear Karpal's statement. 

“It is not the party's position and I will need to meet with him to find out more and discuss,” he told The Malaysian Insider.

So, please, Karpal, in the meantime, please shut up or you can defect to an independent. Can someone muzzle Karpal Singh, please?

MPs, please be fair to humanity -Malaysiakini

I hope Malaysiakini won't mind to publish my post at the crawling sidebar.

Malaysian Insider reports that  The Cabinet today agreed that Parliament holds a special session on the Gaza onslaught next Monday, said Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim.

All Pakatan Rakyat leaders from DAP, PAS and PKR jointly condemned the Israeli onslaught on the Hamas militant in Gaza in a rare voice of unity for the Palestinian civilians caught in the battle between the Israeli military and the Hamas fighters, but note that while southern Israel was attacked  by rocket attacks by Hamas militants, did they (the MPs) voice out humanitarian cause for the inflicted Israeli?

Note that it was the Hamas who incited and provoked this war by blasting rockets beyond the buffer onto Israeli soil. I am urging all MPs to arrived at a rational, not blind senses by calling for an immediate halt to the Isreali military aggression in Gaza while maintained reticent on Hamas rocket-attacks on Israel.

BOTH SIDE MUST CEASE AND DESIST ALL SORTS OF ATTACKS. If the Parlimentarians arrived at a unanimous decision in condemning Israel and forthwith to the UN Securioty Council for immediate intervention for Israeli ceasefire and immediate withdrawal from Gaza and urgent humanitarian assistance for the wounded and dying Palestinaians, a third party - NATO - must play oversight role in ensuring peace for Israel and Palestinian at the buffer zone. Any country will surely retaliate if their citizens are under any sorts of attacks.

And, oh yes, I almost forgotten for leaving the most trivial matters but I believe it merits a mention having read Malaysiakini's crawling post - Top blogs by DAP's Lim Kit Siang "Special Parliament On Gaza On Monday", will this be the opportunity to move another vote of confidende for Pak Lak, a joint-effort by esp. all Pakatan Rakyat's MPs and some of Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's loyal MPs in  fillibustering  Najib's takeover in March 2009, thus giving Pak Lah the imprimatur to lead until next election before Anwar takeover? How do I suspect? Just a thought. No matter, let's see - shall we, hmmmmmmm.....

One Sided Protests Against Israel Only Invigorates Palestinaian's Hamas -Malaysiakini

Malaysiakini headlined "Hamas orders 'day of wrath' over Israel blitz"

Since the fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel ended last week, Israeli citizens living within a 27-mile radius of the border with the Gaza strip find themselves living in a war zone when Hamas militants launched countless of rocket attacks on  Ashdod, just 23 miles away from the turbulent border that Israel shares with the Gaza Strip.

In retaliation, Israel launched the ariel offensive on Saturday after more than a week of intense Palestinian rocket fire that followed the expiration of a six-month truce, which Hamas refused to extend.

While most Muslims in Malaysia and in Islamic countries staged protests calling for boycott of Israel products, burning effigies of Israel's PM, Ehud Olmert and President Bush whom they claimed of backing Israel's aggression , it will not help any ceasefire. Now you tell me - if say - Thailand has been raining rockets on Penang and Singapore on Johor, will the Malaysia Government retaliate and protect it's citizens? 

The mosque destroyed Friday was known as a Hamas stronghold, and the army said it was used to store weapons. It also was identified with Nizar Rayan, the Hamas militant leader killed Thursday when Israel dropped a one-ton bomb on his home.

That airstrike killed 20 people, including all four of Rayan's wives and 10 of his 12 children. The strike on Rayan's home obliterated the four-story apartment building and peeled off the walls of others around it, carving out a vast field of rubble.

A rocket barrage hit the Israeli city of Ashkelon early Friday. Two rockets hit apartment buildings, lightly wounding two Israelis, police said.

Now read this :

Thousands demonstrated in the West Bank in solidarity with Gazans. In Ramallah, Palestinian police loyal to Hamas' moderate rival, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, barred protesters from chanting pro-Hamas slogans or waving Hamas banners. Three Hamas activists were arrested.

While keeping up the military pressure, Israel also appears to be offering an opening for the intense diplomatic efforts, saying it would consider a halt to the fighting if international monitors were brought in to track compliance with any truce with Hamas.

While urging Israel to a ceasefire, the leaders of the Muslim countries must throw full support for the moderate Palestinian President, Mahmood Abbas government to gain control of the hardliner Hamas territories and concurrently calling for an end to Hamas militant leaders in all sorts of attacks against any Israeli and it's soil. To attack Israel, instigating this unnecessary war and hiding under the Isreali onslaught causing civilian casualties is like a man assaulting his nemesis and hides inside a woman's skirt when the enemy retaliates.
