Permatang Pauh, PAS and pregnancy

Looks like our PKR Brown Shirts have been at it again, bashing photojournalists for daring to snap photos where their Mahdi is around.

The Star Online tells us in Pixman claims assault by PKR supporters that allegedly 20 PKR supporters bashed Berita Harian photographer, Siren Nafiz, outside the Maktab Perguruan Tuanku Bainun where the nominations for the Permatang Pauh by-election were held on Saturday morning. They stole his RM15,000 camera plus accessories as well.

Those thugs also allegedly assaulted Halim Berber, a photojournalist from a foreign (French based) press when he went to pull Siren out from the mob.

Just less than 2 weeks ago the same PKR hooligans walloped and attempted to strangle a woman photojournalist from Guang Ming Daily – see my post Follies of foul foolish fanaticism which led Dr Wan Azizah to apologize to the injured journalist.

Looks like it’s still SNAFU (Situation Normal, All F**ked Up) with those PKR mob.

Meanwhile Malaysiakini tells us that PAS leader slams Saiful's swearing act where wannabe PM Pak Haji Hadi Awang condemned Saiful Bukhari Azlan's act of swearing on the Quran as an act of kebodohan (stupidity) which went against the teachings of Islam.

He declared: "We don't have this practice in Islam. It is the Christians who swear on the bible."

Hmmm, does this mean that Christians have been and are bodoh (stupid)?

I heard from a friend that it was the respected Mufti of Perlis who suggested that the two antagonists take an oath on the Quran.

Now, between the Mufti and the wannabe PM, who do you reckon would be the one making the politically influenced statement re swearing on the Quran?

Then, it seems that PAS is back pedalling on the demands by one of its delegates (to its Dewan Ulama and Youth assemblies) that Pakatan State governments, inclusive of Penang, Perak and Selangor, ban alcohol and gambling.

KNN, no mah-jong and aw kau (Guiness)? And that Holy Grail of all, the 1st prize draw from the 4-Ekor?

That’s blasphemy to the Chinese (and where 4-Ekor is involved, for some Muslims as well), which the Chinese dailies gave wide coverage to.

PAS secretary-general Kamaruddin Jaafar said that the Chinese news agencies would be called for a special meeting after the muktamar because the press might have wrongly interpret issues raised at the assemblies.

‘... wrongly interpret …’? Sounds familiar and UMNO-ish, doesn’t it - wakakaka

And why has there been this unusual concern about what the Chinese may think?

According to Malaysiakini news article Delegates: Woo non-Muslims Fahmi Abdul Wahab, the PAS delegate who has been concerned about the lack of pregnancy arising (or not arising) from the Pakatan marriage a la ménage à trois, said: “Arn chnua boe tua pa tor koe? Kau teh ee ay yeow sut boe?”* - wakakaka

* why not pregnant yet, could it be that he doesn't know how to 'sut'

Nah, just joking ;-) – he said “We support the party president’s policy speech where he called for PAS supporters club members to be given a bigger role.”

The PAS supporters club are made up of non-Muslims.

Malaysiakini reported that several delegates at the PAS muktamar have called on the party leadership to reach out to non-Muslims and encourage their participation in the party. These guys wanted to exploit and harness the support of non-Muslims who have been pissed off with UMNO.

They pointed out to PAS political benefit in this respect in Kedah and Perak where Chinese voters had cast their ballots for the Islamic party.

But on the subject of the PAS delegates’ apparent rejection of Anwar as a possible prime minister, Kamaruddin Jaafar said “Aiyah, man man lai lah!”

He tap danced away, saying it was still too early to talk about a possible Pakatan candidate for the post. Besides a certain Pak Haji fancies himself as the PM too.

KNN ;-)
