An eerie calm is hanging over Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur (KL) tonight. Traffic is light on the streets and the distant din of police sirens is nearly constant. Is it the proverbial calm before the storm? Tomorrow, Saturday afternoon at 2pm here near central KL, a group banned by the government, a group known as […]
Malaysia’s dhimmis fund Islamic da’wah
In Malaysia, Islam is the official religion of the state. That means that it’s funded by the taxpayers. And the non Muslim taxpayers are, of course, taxed more heavily than the Believers in a disguised jizyah system known as the “Bumiputra system”. There is a great sense of irony knowing that mosque, surau and madrassah […]
An interview with an Egyptian jihadist–why Sadat was murdered
Buried deep down in this mainstream media treatment are some interesting if not troubling revelations regarding a jihadist in Cairo named Aboud Al-Zomor, who was recently released from prison by the post Mubarak regime. Any emphasis added below is my own. Excerpts from “Sadat’s assassination plotter remains unrepentant”, MSNBC, 5 July 2011: Egyptian authorities…believed Zomor […]
The Infidel’s Guide to Malaysian Politics
Having been an observer (and arguably a participant) of the Malaysian political scene for a number of years now, I think I’m in a position to be able to well describe that bizarre world to non Malaysians.

The case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn — “stealth” jihad in action?
Until May of this year, the Frenchman Dominique Strauss-Kahn, better known to some by his initials DSK, was the influential head of the International Monetary Fund. His arrest in New York City in May of this year on sexual assault charges has been one of the most spectacular and possibly over-reported news stories of 2011. […]
Malaysia (again) throws its support behind Orwellian-named ‘Freedom Flotilla II’ to Hamastan
Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib has chosen to openly and proudly wear his Muslim heart on his jihadist sleeve. Rather than making a huge public effort — make that a huge public relations stunt — to help suffering Muslims in war zones like Libya, Syria, or Yemen, Najib’s throwing Malaysia’s modest diplomatic weight at the UN […]
Islam equals hypocrisy par excellence
Muslims here in Malaysia and elsewhere love to prattle on about how warlike the ‘infidels’ are, especially America or anyone that can be portrayed as one of America’s friends. When former British Prime Minister Tony Blair visited Malaysia in 2010, a op-ed in a Malaysian government-controlled newspaper, The Star, excoriated him, stating in this piece […]
A Muslim response to FrontPage Magazine’s interview with The Anti Jihadist
Recently I had the opportunity to be interviewed by FrontPage Magazine’s editor Jamie Glazov. In case you haven’t yet read it, the main thrust of the interview was regarding the ongoing persecution of minority non Muslims in Malaysia at the hands of the Muslim/Malay majority. The lengthy track record of substandard treatment and discrimination of […]

Stop the presses! Malaysia’s Prime Minister says he stands for ‘moderation’
This is precisely the sort of meaningless, taqiyya-laced press release that Muslim-led governments like Malaysia’s are notorious for. “Najib’s call to stand united against extremism gains support”, from The Star Online, 21 June: CYBERJAYA: African nations have expressed interest and responded positively to the global movement of moderates. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak […]
