The Zionists really wanna have some taste of the Muslims' retaliation.But how do the Muslims retaliate? Do we have the might?

51, 204);font-size:130%;" &gt;It is all about our inner strenghts.Our willpower, our collective voices, the unity that we are supposed to build, are the ingredients that will indubitably triumph good over evil.All those black sheeps in every nook and cranny of the Muslim society  should be exterminated of their powers to control.Victory will then surely ensue&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span

pertama saya menulis entri di dalam blog saya ini di dalam bahasa Melayu.Walau apa sekalipun, saya berharap mesej yang disampaikan dapat kita sama-sama renungkan.Saya juga hamba biasa.Saya juga manusia.Saya juga tidak berhenti melakukan kesilapan.Tapi kita boleh mengubah diri kita, InsyaAllah.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Sepanjang hidup saya sebagai seorang pelajar, bermacam-macam jenis perangai ragam manusia yang saya lihat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Antara situasi-situasinya seperti berikut:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Situasi 1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Sedang seorang hamba Allah ini(X) belajar di satu tempat umum, dia dirapati oleh seorang lagi hamba Allah(Y)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;X=sedang belajar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Y= menghampiri X dan berkata  "waaa...rajin gile ko ni...lama btol ko lepak kat

style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Sedang hangatnya perbincangan mengenai salah satu topik, si X pun menerangkan secara terperinci apa yang diketahuinya kepada yang hadir,tiba-tiba si Y pon berkata "perghh..hebat siot ko..sume ko tau...mantap ahhh"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Situasi 3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

salah satu soalan,masalah etc, kemudian bertanya dengan Y yang kebetulan berada dekat di situ.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;X bertanya "weyh..ko tau tak camner nak jawab soalan ni,aku tak faham sangat pon?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Y pula dengan nada sinis mejawab "alaa...aku tak buat pon tutorial tuh..aku bukan cemerlang

style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;X ditanya oleh seseorang dalam diskusi kumpulan, dan X mejawab setakat dia tahu.Selesainya diskusi kumpulan itu, Y menyapa X sambil berkata "wow...hebat btol ko dpt jawab semua soalan tuh yang dia tanya..mcm mana ko bole tau ahh??"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Situasi 6&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br

" ntah aku tatau laaa...aku tak baca sngt la buku2 ni ..org2 mantap je baca buku ni...aku bukan rajin macam ko"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102,

berfaedah yang dirasakan dapat membantu dirinya pada masa hadapan.Secara kebetulan, Y pula berada di situ dan meberikan komennya yang tidak diundang oleh sesiapa.Berkata Y "perghhh...ko ni kan..time cuti pon takkan tannak rileks kot...rileks arr...pelik siot ko...hahaha"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Situasi

The fluctuations in the ringgit value had affected the country's economy and the government should not continue with the managed float of the ringgit(bear in mind that the current system is the floating system). The value must be fixed as it would strengthen the economy and create structural changes without having to depend on the model from western experts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“If the US economy declines, the country, which is among its key trading partners, will also be badly affected,” Dr M said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ringgit's RM3.80 peg against the US dollar imposed in Sept 1, 1998 was scrapped in July 21, 2005 and was operated by a managed float against a basket of currencies (Quoted from &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;An Analysis of the Malaysian Pegging System)&lt;/span&gt;. Although the pegging of the ringgit by the government in 1997 is perceived to be different from the current uncertain global economic scenario, it was possible that several mechanisms in the previous pegging of the ringgit could be used again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Muhyiddin said the uncertain global economy today is due to the sub-prime problems prevailing in the United States which resulted in several major banks in the country to go bankrupt and this scenario is different from the situation in 1997.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The government, he said needed to keep tabs on the current world economic developments and take necessary initiatives to tackle the problem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: arial;

You may ask...And the answer to this lies to the very situation of the Muslims nowadays.When you see in the media, the muslims &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;being portrayed as hardcore terrorists and suicide bombers,sequestered in some mountainous,cavernous region like Tora Bora, one cant help but&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;cringe in fear whenever he/she encounters a bearded man with a turban.*a turban is a headgear worn by the middle-easterners normally*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;So, do we really need to be afraid of those people? No...really...it is a big 'NO'.All those irrelevant fears that the non-muslims have been imbued &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;with by the western-controlled media, are preposterous.The western media, especially the US media being controlled by the Jews are so good &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;in the art of fabulism.Believe me, they are able to spin any stories out of the context just to please certain parties.The economy of the US being controlled&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;by the Jews, and it is not easy for most people out there to really figure out those at the backstage,those behind all the masterplan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Money paper,for those who dont know yet, is invented by the Jews.Money paper, by its very nature has no value. It is we, people who put the value on it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;They are nothing,just papers!!.The real money,should be in silver or gold form.So, who are setting the value for the paper money and where is the reference point for the value of such and such a currency?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;You see, when the US economy falls, the whole world would feel the impact.Certain countries might go into periods of abysmal recessions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Now, anyone with a sound mind would ask ,why should we be affected by the US economy?.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;The answer is because the reference point is where the Jews have discreet control in,which is the US economy and everything related to its finances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;I still remember, as far as i could recall, when i was at the age of 12 to 15, my dad was watching his favourite channel,the Bloomberg , a figure appeared&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;from the idiot-box, looking dishevelled,and tattily dressed,around the age 70 plus.He was commenting on the recent updated economic status of the States and&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;making some predictions and what investors should do.I was amazed ..how could this old looking, frayed man be so good even&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;in&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;predicting the future of the US economy, as if he had every nitty-gritty facts about the economy.I asked my dad'who is this old man,so good that almost any &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;steps taken in Wall Street would have to be consented by this old guy?'And he told me about this man, and his name is Alan Greenspan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt; That was the first time i heard about Alan Greenspan, a Jew, and since then, i kept watching some of his comments live on Bloomberg and&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;was amazed by his acuity in foretelling the economic situation.Even the Dow Jones would have to succumb to the impact &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;of US economic downturn if there is to be a major economic downturn.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Back to our present situation,whereby Muslims have insignificant control over the world economy,let alone to govern&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;their own countries,they are labelled as being uncouth and uncivilised.I have to agree with this.And anyone out there who doesnt agree&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;

font-style: italic;"&gt;Equality is not merely an equality..there must be a balance...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My second post would be related to the different races present in Malaysia.I was born as a Malayalee (muslim Malayalees are called Malabaris),a race unique to the west coast of India,known as the Malabar coast in a state called Kerala.&lt;br /&gt;My grandfathers,both from my mom and dad's sides were from there.They came as traders and married local Malabaris whose parents came to Malaya in the same way.&lt;br /&gt;Being a minority in Malaysia, i have been observant of the characters of the many races in Malaysia,mainly the Chinese,Indians and the Malays.&lt;br /&gt;It is really a wonder how three major races could live in one country,without major fights (though some of them occured in the past and will occur if no preventive measures are taken )&lt;br /&gt;I have been contemplating and reading quite extensively since i was a kid and noted some of the changes that these races have been through.I would say the British were very sly in bringing the other races to the&lt;br /&gt;land, unequivocally owned by the Malays as the original settlers of the archipelagos.But who are the Malays really? Are they a mix of chinese and indians since the malay archipelagos became the melting-pot for the chinese&lt;br /&gt;and indian traders alike,and not forgetting the arabs who came later during the halcyon days of Islamic Civilisation, to spread Islam.&lt;br /&gt;I've read of the chinese civilisation, of the Indus civilisation,the greeks, the egyptians,the Mayans, the Incas and many more, but i have never encountered any written accounts of civilisation pertaining to the Malays.Could it be a combination of all the civilisations that created a race called the Malay.&lt;br /&gt;Even the origin of the word Malay has been disputed from a number of sources.There are a few that i know of.According to the Indonesian scholars, the Malays are those people who escaped the tyranny of the Srivijaya empire, fled to the now Tanah Melayu.The word 'Malayu' in one of the many dialects spoken in Indonesia means 'to run away'.From another source, the 'Malays'came from the word 'malaise' as the British used to called when the country was under their colony.&lt;br /&gt;The word 'malaise'means to be lethargic,listless and hopeless due to being sick etc.Which source is true and which one has been concocted will remain a mystery.It is up to my fellow Malay colleagues or any Malays out there to find out for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe the time has come for the Malays to look back and discover what treasures they might have left behind.Undeniably, the Portuguese, the Dutch and the British were very keen on wiping out any evidences of the Malay civilisation, if there were any.&lt;br /&gt;When compared to the days, 30 to 40 years back,the times when Tanah Melayu was still a British colony, there were hardly any Malays in the professional fields.This includes professions such as lawyers.doctors,district officers,gov officers etc.All the businesses were&lt;br /&gt;at the hands of the Chinese while most of the doctors and lawyers were Indians.I wonder why was the reason.Why the Malays were not in these fields?.They remained&lt;br /&gt;in the village growing paddy etc.Realising that the gap is getting wider, politicians were on the run to find the solutions.Tun Razak came with the idea of setting up FELDA.&lt;br /&gt;FELDA helped the Malays in an awful lot of ways.Settlers were given free lands.Subsidies were given and many more incentives were delivered.Mahathir set up the New Economic Policy which&lt;br /&gt;purpotedly planned to favour the Malays.Mara Junior Science Colleges were instituted, serving as a springboard for the Malays to achieve greater success.&lt;br /&gt;This issue of the gap between the races,in terms of socio-economic status is very crucial in maintaining the stability of the nation.And it is also a very sensitive issue to be discussed upon!!&lt;br /&gt;However sensitive an issue might be, sooner or later we all have to face the facts.The suggestion by the Menteri Besar of Selangor, to open up UITM to other races, was something i deem as foolish.&lt;br /&gt;Yes, being an egalitarian politician is not wrong but in the case of Malaysia, this will not do and will only bring disaster of unimaginable scale to the Malays.&lt;br /&gt;Imagine, if this is the kind of mentality one has if he were to become the Prime Minister;what would happen?.It is true for the Chinese and the Indians to say that it is&lt;br /&gt;unfair for the privileges to be in the hands of the Malays when it comes to; from buying a house,getting a loan to getting scholarships for further studies.&lt;br /&gt;But bear in mind,the Malays have been kind enough to allow other races to dwell in this country, which was originally theirs.Thus, we should all be thankful.&lt;br /&gt;I dont see concrete reasons for the Chinese or the Indians to complain.They have enjoyed wealth and the Chinese socio-economic status is far higher than any other races.&lt;br /&gt;The economy, in addition is not controlled by the Malays but the Chinese and the Indians.Just look at the top 10 richest man in Malaysia.Well,having said so why there are quarters of the aforementioned races demanding more and more.We should help each other and not demand more than what is deemed enough.It is about tolerance.&lt;br /&gt;It is about 'give and take'.They give us things,we give them things that they cant afford to achieve.There should be a balance.Irrefutably,some races might be good in certain fields,&lt;br /&gt;but why can't we help each other.Let us think and act accordingly.&lt;br /&gt;Think wisely.!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WL2lu3pfJQo/SKKRWXVq3CI/AAAAAAAAAA4/fCmieQ7LPz8/s1600-h/sodomy_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt;
