The long harsh drought season in the Malayan football arena seems to have reach its end. Malaysia had won the prestigious Suzuki Cup before the closing of 2010. A victory to be remembered and cherished by all Malaysians throughout 2011. But in the quest of this worldly game, so lucrative in some highly capitalized countries, the misbehaviours of certain parties involved is very well embarrassing. While it is acknowledged that the highly spirited fans can't help themselves in wanting their favourite team to win, it is discomforting to see how far they would and could go. The high-technology laser which has not been so successful used or developed by both armies seemed were widely used in this game to temporarily blinded the goal keepers. Indonesian fans were said to have started it, so the Malaysian fans can't forgo and forgive since vengeance is sweet.
The heart wrenching manoeuvres and dazzling attempt of scoring the goals, the beauty of the game and the spirit of a healthy competition was almost lost in the "feeding frenzy". Malaysian footballers were transported in armed armoured vehicles, while the Indonesian footballers were not put in such an antagonized position when they were in Malaysia. The Indonesians, some are very fanatical when it comes to Malaysia. I wonder why? I hope we haven't taken football as something so divine and the only goals of our existence as our escapism from our reality. It would be sad and simply not worth it at all. In reality we haven't won anything, yet. Don't use short-lived fame and happiness as drugs for our inability to cope with current events. Let's move on together as true brothers of the same faith and the same face.

I've put my MPV or Multi Purpose Vehicle to the test for a three hour ride. I've got everyone on board, my father and mother, my sister and the whole of my own family. But I'm not entitled to disclose the numbers specifically for certain just reasons, but trust me, I'm not compromising the safety of my family members, what more of my own father and mother. And frankly speaking, I'm very impressed with this MPV's performance. Money well spent, gladly.
Watching my mom and dad, old and weak, with overwhelming love that surrounds them, I, I can't describe it with words, but I hope, I would be able to live it through my old age with my wife as my parents are now. Their memory is not what they were used to be. At times, when I was lost and couldn't find my way in certain big towns, my father would always be a phone call away to my rescue. He could tell where and when should I take the next turn and on which road I would ended up. His photogenic memory is flawless, with slight margin of error due to rapid development we're having in Malaysia at that time. Hope it would continue on, despite of invisible hands trying to pin it down, and even wished for it to end up in ruins. Alhamdulillah, we are still guarded by true Malaysians, patriotic to the bones. Hope they would remain steadfast and fearless in defending the interest and safety of our great nation, which is built on greatness and never on ruins and oppressions on anyone. That is how I understand the Singapore question. The early leaders had chosen not to taint the formation of Malaysia with blood letting and any form of destruction what more of verbal insult. A sharp contrast to the so-called freedom fighters, advocates of communism and racial supremacy governmental believers.
True, Malaysia is based on the foundation of a race, the Malay. But you won't find any multi-racial country as close to perfect as Malaysia. The opposition leader is free on his wheel-chair to challenge the "autocratic and corrupt" government, Aquino was exiled and killed, Aung San Suu Kyi would be imprisoned time and time again without any legal proceedings, A Malayan prominent political leader is free as a bird to say and do whatever he pleases and have gangs of lawyers to "uphold" the law and order process in the pursuit of justice. While a political party is ridiculed for not implementing the Hudud, a part of the 100% Sharia, those who claimed to be its hardcore advocates, failed to implement it too, to this very day. A fine example of the crab teacher trying to be a wonderful lobster in teaching its small minded plankton like of existence of children that depend on the crowd for the definition of truth and justice without the burden of thinking for themselves.
No one is perfect. We can only thrive to be one and not making any excuses for failing trying. So get up, clean the dirt off your clothes, mend your wounds and move on with greater determination than ever. May the coming new year help us to be a better person and be a part of the solution, not the problem. Life is short.

Until you understand the nature of God and the nature of man you will be unable to understand the bible(or God)
Man (through the fall)inherited a sin nature,he can do nothing to change this! Being good, praying three times a day ,doing good deeds does nothing but make one a 'good' sinner (and who wants to be the 'best sinner' who ever went to Hell?)
So God clad in human flesh came to Earth (Himself) and took this sin nature on Himself(He who knew no sin became sin)and that sin nature died with Him)He them rose again perfect.
This is Gods solution for sinners to die with Him and rise again, sharing the same Spirit.Leaving the old corrupted nature in the grave.This is the exchange God made with sinners through the cross of Jesus Christ.
Man`s solution to sin is to clean up your act,become 'good'but God says this is pointless you are still a sinner and deserve death!.
How can a righteous God condone sin by pretending it doesn`t exist and turn a 'blind eye 'to it?
If you say you are without sin you make God to be a liar.

What more is there to discuss?
Why Sacrifice is NEEDED ??.
Hebrews 9:22
22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
Jesus was a sacrifice because - when God tore the veil in two from top to bottom when Jesus died - it meant that Christ's death opened an unobstructed way to God (Matthew 27:51)
'51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;'.
Before, only the high priest could enter the Holy of Holies (only once a year), and never without blood to cover his personal and national sins.
Hebrews 9:7 says,
"7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:"
Jesus was a sacrifice because God honored it alone - of all the sacrifices ever offered - with the victory of bodily resurrection.
That's why Paul states that Christ's death made a spectacle of all opposition to God (Colossians 2:15).
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
No further sacrifice was needed. Christ's own perfect sacrifice forty years before not only eliminated the temple's relevance, but received God's imprimatur (Official Approval) three days later.
Christ's resurrection guaranteed our freedom from sin while it legally and morally bound us to his grace. Since His sacrifice was all sufficient, there is nothing we can do to deserve it.
Since His resurrection verified His sacrifice's sufficiency, there is NOTHING we won't do for Him in appreciation.
Revelation 5:12
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

srizals said...I was worried about you Oswin, I thought the blizzard had caught you trapped and dying somewhere, oh, well, glad you're still ticking, as always.
How do I get over with this high class British Irony?
You said that there were over 40 writers, all humans as the writers of the gospels. I'm not sure whether you are referring to the OT or NT, or both, but you have forgotten the 'editors'.
While self-editing is evident, major one was done at Nicaea, a council was forged by the pagan Emperor Constantine. They have decided that Jesus was the son of god, omission or addition of verses can't be assumed of not happening at all, and the outcome was only the four gospels to be canonized as the foundation of the Christian faith, and the irony, not all bishops had attended, most importantly, any companions of Jesus that could have counter check any error. The continuity was broken.
That is why you're dodging my simple question asking the definition of the word 'circumcise' which would have proof glaringly that the bible have been tampered with, what more would the 4 gospels. Instead of using the word 'purify', strangely the word 'circumcise' was used, and knowingly, to highlight the circumcision of Abraham as an important part of the covenant.
Dear readers, even the book of Revelation was not written by anyone who knew Jesus Christ nor his disciples, and yet somehow he was granted 'the apostle', so how can you believed firmly what you believe?
There are so many uncertainties, for instance, Paul was said to be a crucifier of Christians, and then some said he was not. So which is which?

That is why I am angry Len, I can't determine which in the Bible is God's and which is not. Someone has to bear my wrath. Because of this 'misunderstanding' many have gone astray and ended up being zombies of the 'higher beings', a self-cleaning people that sinned beyond Sodom and Gommorah and killed his fellow humans with ease as if they were flies. And yet they glaringly declared that Jesus had never done the hideous things they had done and are doing now.

You see, one of the noble 6 pillars of Faith for Muslims, being the third is believing in the books revealed by God to His prophets. We revered Jesus son of Mary as one of the holy Prophets of God, among a series of Prophets to mankind since the beginning of Adam a.s. and awaits for his second coming before the end of days to lead the good against evil. He was betrayed by the Israelite then, and outnumbered by the Romans. He won't be alone at that time.

len said...To say Jesus is merely a prophet makes no sense because Jesus claimed to be God.
So He either was a liar or God.There is no other explanation!
"He was baptized as a man -- but He remitted sins as God...He was tempted as man, but he conquered as God...He hungered -- but He fed thousands...He was wearied, but He is the rest of them that are weary and heavy-laden. He was heavy with sleep, but He walked lightly over the sea...He pays tribute, but it is out of a fish; yea He is the king of those who demanded it...He prays, but he hears prayer. He weeps, but He causes tears to cease. He asks where Lazarus was laid, for He was man; but He raises Lazarus, for He was God. He is sold, and very cheap, for it is only for thirty pieces of silver; but He redeems the world, and that at a great price, for the price was His blood. As a sheep he is led to the slaughter, but He is the shepherd of Israel, and now of the whole world also...He is bruised and wounded, but He heals every disease and every infirmity. He is lifted up and nailed to the tree, but by the tree of life He restores us. He dies, but he gives life, and by His death He destroys death."
I know Muslims and Mormons, Christian Scientists, Jehovah Witnesses, Unitarians, Scientologists, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Seventh Day Adventists -and many others - will not want to hear this, but the Bible declares that Jesus was the FINAL revelation of God to man (Hebrews 1:1-3). There have been no others.

In answer to your question about why God sent His son to die for sinful man, which you claim is child abuse. You obviously have a Bible, I would suggest you look up the word incarnation.
If nothing is impossible for God then if He so desires can He not become a human being? & if our sins are so reprehensible to Him that in His righteous judgement He says "The wages of sin is death" will you contradict Him?. If He decrees that a sinless substitute will be an acceptable offering because of His great love & mercy- for you will you reject His offer?. If the only person that could live without sinning for 33 years was God incarnate who voluntarily gave His sinless life for you & offered you redemption for eternity that all the religions or good deeds or pilgrimages were unable to attain for you would you laugh him to scorn?. Throughout the Old & New testaments the law is the same- "without the shedding of Blood there is NO remission (cancelling out) of sin". Think carefully my friend. A lot depewnds on it!.

I have told you REPEATEDLY Christians in large part REJECT THE NESTORIAN BIBLE TEXTS AS CORRUPT, We accept Textus Receptus, Septugaint and Hebrew as the ONLY GENUINE text, uncorrupted unlike heretical authors at Alexandria, who obviously you LOVE TO QUOTE FROM.
You are obviously trying to state Why did Abraham Circumcise Ishmael and he, Ishmael, is therefore of Gods Promise.
Wrong see;
Genesis 17:10-21
10This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
11And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.
13He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
15And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
16And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
17Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?
18And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
19And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
20And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
21BUT MY COVENANT WILL I ESTABLISH WITH ISAAC, WHICH SARAH SHALL BEAR UNTO THEE AT THIS SET TIME IN THE NEXT YEAR.
SO HOW CAN WE KNOW THAT ISHMAEL IS NOT OF GODS PROMISE?
Genesis 15:3-8
3And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
4And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
6And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
7And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
8And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
GOD GIVES ABRAHAM HIS ,GOD'S, HOLY ETERNAL PROMISE!!!
Genesis 15:13
13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
WHEN WERE THE CHILDREN OF ISHMAEL EVER SLAVES OF PHAROAH??

11And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.
13He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
15And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
16And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
17Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?
18And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
19And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
20And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
21BUT MY COVENANT WILL I ESTABLISH WITH ISAAC, WHICH SARAH SHALL BEAR UNTO THEE AT THIS SET TIME IN THE NEXT YEAR.
SO HOW CAN WE KNOW THAT ISHMAEL IS NOT OF GODS PROMISE?
Genesis 15:3-8
3And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
4And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
6And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
7And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
8And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
GOD GIVES ABRAHAM HIS ,GOD'S, HOLY ETERNAL PROMISE!!!
Genesis 15:13
13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
WHEN WERE THE CHILDREN OF ISHMAEL EVER SLAVES OF PHAROAH??

Mr. Kingofhighcs,
I'm not interested in the question of the legitimacy of Palestine according to the covenant based on your logic as God is on a weak part of the covenant, bound to fulfill His part of the promise whereas His creations held the upper hand, always. They could ignore their responsibilities and duties to God and get away with it. It doesn't ring too well in a relationship between the Creator and the weak creations that depends on Him, not the otherwise. Thank God, my sons and daughter aren't reading any of this, if they do, I'm a dead meat! It doesn't make any sense at all.
God is the most merciful. He forgives and punishes whom He wills according to His law as He is the Creator of everything that exist in this universe, not just earth. The only rule of the thumb is humility before God. It only requires us asking for His forgiveness only as the Creator and repenting by not doing the sins again and follow them with good deeds if it doesn't involved any living souls. If it does, then repentance is not sufficient. The right and loss of others must be attended to.
Like I said earlier if any of you've noticed, I couldn't have believed a persecutor cum saviour and has many issues as a trustworthy nor without any endorsement by the pious and well-known religious figures and proof from the scriptures and the abundance of truth proven in time and even at that time. Muhammad was known as Al Amin (The Trustworthy) by the pagan Arabs, not by Muslims.
Among the proof that the West still cannot comprehend is the marriage of a 9 year old girl which was the norm then, it is even a norm now, I mean they are no longer little children since they are able to conceive and function as a woman. This is the very fact that none of Muhammad's critic can ever escape from reason. The very fact that early bride age was a norm hundred years after Muhammad s.a.w. marriage is ignored. The fact that even nowadays, the girls are reaching puberty earlier and able to carry a child in their womb and deliver a life has purposely been ignored as proven in Thailand. There are many more. Children stop to be children when they can perform adult bodily function. Our civilisation stop them from fending on their own. Their biological clock do not change according to our civilisation. It remained naturally the same. Browse for youngest mother and you'll be dead surprise. Even scientists in Britain is worried of the 'new' phenomena of early puberty which of course means sexual maturity. The fact that it is not written in fancy books by fancy writers doesn't mean they don't exist Non Mouse.

Anyway, the moral standing of some of us that indulge ourselves in the sex revolution which know no boundaries questioned our very essence as persecutor. What more in fighting the nature of man and woman from the need of sex, which is quite natural for an organism that depends on new blood for future existence. Bound in holy matrimony, not like the chickens.
The very essence of paganism which worship earthly figures whether they are man-made or created beings or animals or man himself is why I can't accept any other religion than what I have. On the contrary of popular belief that it is easy for me since I'm a Muslim in understanding the foundation of my faith is mostly untrue. Each Muslim must go on his own journey of understanding himself and Islam and eventually Allah. Seeing so many injustices and the prowess of the dominant evil ones and how evil eluded justice around us or in a global event, test our very faith on daily basis. Salman Rushdie is a manifest example that not all Muslims can survive the journey.
It is never easy to retain the goodness in oneself. The test never stops as the gifts do not either. And all this will end with Heaven and Hell. All the sufferings, confusions of 0 - 120 years of life that we have is nothing compared to the everlasting life promised by God, both in Hell or Heaven. We do not go away as Science would have told you. But I leave it to the smart atheists to figure it out.
Could you quote your authoritative bible regarding the verse in question Mr. K?
Deuteronomy 30:6. If you said you don't recognise it, then there is no such thing as a Judeao-Christian foundation that we have believed all this while. Thanks.

Solution to Sin
Len said,
"So God gave a solution to sin when Jesus Christ took the punishment for humanities sin in His Body on the Cross at Calvary.
All we have to do is repent and accept Christ."
Couldn't he just forgive sins without any 'child abuse'?

Question..Who was Hadrat Ayesha and how old was she when she married.
What has 'Child Abuse' got to do with Jesus Christ's dying for all sins and that forgiveness of ALL sins is Through Him as Len states.
I know what you are getting at (Catholic Priest were evil to behave like this with children, they deserve the full punishment of the Law) but is there not child abuse ( how can anyone marry a 9 yr old and believe it can ever be seen as acceptable within our western civilised society as YOUR ROLE MODEL, whereas we do NOT)in Islam by Muslims?.

Before engaging me with that paedophile bullet, I sincerely advise you to read up all about it and after you are ready to interact with me with that issue, do inform me.
What I mean by 'child abuse' is why did god punished his only begotten son for the sinning man? If this doctrine is fully believed by sinners, killers and mutilators, don't you realised how dangerous it would be to all those who dare not sin?

Now WHICH Hadith should I accept as genuine then.
Your Religion's basis of truth is self reasoning and justifying!!
Mohammed wrote (he was Illiterate !!!) the Qu'ran from the words of the Angel Gabriel (He, Gabriel, is the Messianic Herald of Jesus, not Allah !!). Mohammed declares in the Qu'ran, he, Mohammed, is a man of the pinnacle of highest moral values. As The Qu'ran declares Mohammed to be of the highest morals, so then it MUST be true.
Yet, He, Mohammed wrote the Qu'ran, and Only him. Hmmm?? VERY WORRYING!
The Holy Bible is written by over 40 human writers, by The Authority of God Himself, throughout history who always agree, so we do not have to rely on the sole word of one Man/Writer, whereas Moslems MUST!!.
This is called self justification and circular reasoning in OUR SOCIETY.
Jesus was 33 years old when He died on the Cross for the sins of all men, including moslems like you, and you can be saved also IF you believe on Him.
He was not a child but a Man's age when He died for US.
HE WAS NOT PUNISHED!!!!
He was the ONLY PERSON who can/did EVER die to pay the penalty for sin IN FULL, FOR ALL MANKIND.
HE ,WILLINGLY CAME TO EARTH (His Decision), DIED FOR US, TO SAVE US, SO HOW IS GOD THE FATHER AN ABUSER??
Please brush up on OUR Old and New Testament, then try again!

With Great Power Comes..
srizals@gmail.com
As the second child and the only son of my family, my life is not that easy when I was a kid. I have to satisfy my boyish needs and in the mean time had sisters that would slow me down from time to time in my quest of the brave new world around a kid that loved the beauty of living things around him. Nature never fails to fascinate me. At that time, I wasn't sure I really care to know who had created them and placed everything in a perfect harmony and balance. I just enjoyed shooting the colourful birds with my slingshot just to hold those beautiful creatures in my hands. Most of the time I missed. Gladly. But my judgement, bear in mind, like yours when we are about at the same age was purely on exquisite fun and discovery. We have no ill-intention of killing and decreasing the population of birds or any other beautiful living things around us that was so abundant before the merciless progress catch up, conquering and eliminating all the beautiful creatures from our little hands' reach and places of our treasured childhood. How I missed those days, the good and serene live of a child.
Every where I went, I would discover new living things. Fish being my main target until my mother gave me the ultimatum. The fish in my aquarium must not increase in numbers or she would let loose every one of them back to the waterways where I found them in the first place. But, being what I was at that time, and the fish seemed never to diminish in numbers and sizes, no matter how many you have caught, seduce me to my dark childish greedy side. One instance, I managed to catch a big Malayan catfish with my bare naked hands, firmly holding it just right below its poisonous sharp stings. My gentle grandmother was so terrified of the size of the catfish she cut off the stings because I wanted to keep it as a pet. I was absolutely mesmerised by the weird looking fish that had whiskers on its mouth just like a cat. But my mother had better idea and we had it for dinner instead. Eventually my daring adventures of a boy hunter exceeded her patience and for my mistake of catching a very big eel fish that of course resemble much like a snake, she lived up to her promise and all my precious fish were gone. I could only watch helplessly as the fish jumped joyously into freedom. Catch and release and to be caught again afterwards, of course.
My little sisters would tagged along and my grandmother would always reminded me to watch them and I would get the lecture if they were to return home crying. But what a boy under 10 would know about taking care of his little sisters that was so vulnerable to their surrounding? And of course, again my mother would keep up to her words. Growing up was something. The memories of pain and pleasure override each other until they all became one sweet solid mesmerising memory.
I remember when I was racing with my buddies just after the rain, the bicycle was twice my size and on a sharp turn, I lost control and the bicycle with me still on it plunged into a deep big drain. I don't know how but it must be pure instinct of a boy, somehow, I managed to fly and cling on to the wire fences. Did I mentioned my bleeding mouth? Anyway, my bicycle was not that lucky. Well, there was a lot more of falls and bruises, but strangely, no matter how bad it gets, the blood and cuts, I could still remember, the pain was not that lasting. Until recently when I was an adult do I learn about endorphin. The automatic counter pain mechanism of our unique and complex body system unrivalled by any marvels of the greatest human creators’ ingenuity. And then we dare to be confused when we found in the Koran that says Allah is the best of creators, thinking that there are actually other gods that also creates. We forgot about ourselves. Strangely we didn’t get confused that easily when we read the verses that Allah is the best planner among planners.
Unlike adults, sorry, unlike children, we adults have a heavy responsibility laid on our shoulders, whether we acknowledge it or not. Unlike children that couldn't have predicted and understand the consequences of their actions, we as adults have the ample ability to fully comprehend our actions and predict the reactions that would follow almost instantaneously. We cannot expect all the reactions would limit themselves to our well-calculated expectation, it would be rather childish, unwittingly. Some of the consequences of our actions would come back to haunt us when we have forgotten about them. We have deliberately forgetting our own doing that have provoked or caused the reactions of others, delayed by our overwhelming dominating prowess.
As powerful adults, which of course have better insight and intellect of things at hand, we must show to others that are still in their childish years, how we deal with things and how we limit ourselves in our actions to achieve results. If we failed to set a good example of self-control and knowing when to stop or how far should we really go in achieving our goals, the not so smart would lost their basis of comparison and hence, would not have any benchmarking as a guide. We have failed to set an example and we are going to pay dearly for it.
Don't act like a baby when others start to copy our childish behaviours. Remember our own upbringing.
Western Imperialism and Iraq:

False Patron
srizals@gmail.com
Everyone is talking about false gods and false prophets. False patrons seem to escape the radar and got to walk away from all the fiasco, unnoticed by the sensitive critical eyes of the not-so-pious and envious observers. Everyone could see the merciless wars and brutal conflicts physically being fought right there in front of their very eyes on TV, a thousand miles away from them and surprisingly quite allergic to the ripples of threats and destructions that came ashore to their peaceful and beautiful homelands.
They have somehow failed to see any link between the multiple long wars, being fought by their own brave high-tech and heavily armed sacrificial lamb-soldiers, that are the necessary casualties on the altar of the so-called freedom of their beloved motherland, to the low level of danger they have foolishly put themselves into. So exclusive and prized this freedom is, not everyone is entitled to it, as with any other exclusive beautiful things that we have in our short existence in this temporal world. Proudly flaunted by the proud and spoilt civilised aristocrats that would not even dare of going near the altar of freedom. What more of thinking of having to send their beautiful and soft special sons and daughters to the slaughter. It’s the duty of the ruled class to the ruling elite. We command and you’ll die for us, sorry, for the sake of the freedom of our country. Remember that this very special conserved right is for those with money only, lots of them and are not for all. Especially not the severely impoverished and poorly equipped ‘deadly’ nations that only fault is just for inflicting fear on the privileged wealthy West. They are guilty of a suspicion of planning to terrorize the poor rich countries that were already half-terrorized by their own misadventures of meddling and controlling the lives of others in some foreign countries. Subduing these absolute foreign sovereign citizens to their would-like-to-be rulers’ whims. Something considered highly despicable and totally inconsiderate in their very culture of advancement. It is their God-given right to do whatever pleases them. The inconvenient pain and agony that follows is not of their concern, especially when it is not they that are doing the dying.
The fact that their soldiers are invading, walking about killing the inhabitants of the foreign lands that they are occupying, illegally by any moral point of view and standard, seem to escape their reasoning. And thus they are so confused and angry at the terrorists for implying the same tactics of terror that they have become so expert of. The terrorists must bear in mind that just like freedom and justice, terror is also an exclusive privilege that is God-given to them, only to them, the moguls of the cold war. The so-called-terrorists on the other hand must try and act more civilised than the high-technically advanced and modernised barbarians that are killing their countrymen alongside with the children of their future and devastating their country, which is the source of happiness for a nation people.
How I am sickened of these sick arrogant people that think they deserved to live on the death of so many. Somehow not deserving any destructions and deaths for their roles as terminators. How I despise their overwhelming stupidity of not realising the risk of being the conqueror of mightier people than they are, in spiritual essence and morality standard. Their might is only in plastic, paper, wire and steel. Those fancy machineries won’t outlast the endurance of the human spirit, especially those who believed it with their hearts; they are on the right side.
May they are blessed with longevity in their pain and fear, these profiteers of pain. These highly civilised monsters that had caused much, much suffering on so many people in so many countries since ages for none other than their selfish economic and political interest, severely lacking of any morality standing in justice and liberalism. They are manifest hypocrisy in the purest of form for the entire world to see. Shame on them. And shame on those who allowed them to get away with it by looking at their pointing fingers, which of course, would never ever be pointing at their own black and dark twisted hearts.
Haven't we learnt anything from the Art of War by Sun Tzu?
