Zulkiflim,
It is with a 'some what' gladdened heart when i read the report
that terrorists in France had only planted bombs and did not set
them off in shopping centres,. giving time to evacuate busy
shoppers during this season of gift buying to evacuate, and did not
set it off as they normally would do.
Terrorists bomb attempts
in France
It would be stretching imagination that i had something to do
with it and that Al Qaeda had been reading my posts and reacting
with acts of mercy to innocents.
It would had been of some consolation to the late Mdm Lo
Hwei Yen and her loved ones that her principle had been effective -
the application of 'Lo Hwei Yen' principle - changing fixed
mindsets with a correct and better ideology, as seen with France's
terrorists withholding pushing the button to kill thousands of
innocents only buying gifts for their loved ones.
Their principle demand was that France pull out their troops in
Afghanistan. France anyway had alread planned to do so. Even so
should US. There is no point in keeping military troops there.
Instead, they should send 100,000 clerics - modern
religious scholars, imans and mullahs, into the villages to correct
the flaws in the interpretations of the Islamic holy book. You
can't fight an ideology by bullets alone.
Even Thai's PM realised this and cannot depend on their police
and military to keep the peace in the restive south.
If there is great concern that only a monotheistic religion
rules Earth, then lets decide it on an agreed battlefield with
HONOUR. Let us disarm any advantage we have, and meet face to face,
armed with only swords and spears for equality's sake. If the
opposition has no trainning or time enough with it, then let's meet
with only fists and loincloth to settle the religious issue.
Battles are not a numbers game anyway. The good prophet
Mohammed,( blessed be his name and his mercifulness), had only 300
soldiers and yet routed 900 Meccans to win a decisive battle to
gain ascendency and divine proof of his theology.
Let us then meet in the battlefield and let the Supreme Being,
whom we all believed exists in different names, even athesism,
decide which side would be victorious.
At least, with such a crucial event, innocents would be spared
the oppression of terrorism, and victors can claim superiority in
their religion, with the defeated and their progeny surrending to a
truth finally. and supporting whole heartedly the Supreme Being's
divine will without question.
But before such enterprises, of which i will vie to be the first
to sign up for as well as the firstman to face the first and often
brutal charge, give diplomacy, negotiations and compromises a
chance.
Look at the innocents, espacially the children. They may be
naughty, but in their innocent ways, they know not what is tyranny
and oppression as well as other societal evils. We as
their forebears have a responsibility to them that they may
grow up knowing freedoms - freedom from oppression, illiterarcy,
povery, hunger and espacially discrimination.
The world wept when Beslan happened - the horrible massacre of
334 innocent hostages, including 186 young children, hundreds more
wounded, conducted by animals whom swore fealty to a religion as
they blew themselves and others up. And now, one of our own citizen
had died hearing that swear again. Their deaths must not be in
vain. It must end.
We can share this planet, progress and evolve till
technology enable us all to leave it to inhabit other planets
of our own in the Universe, as promised to a common
patriach in all holy books that we mankind will be more than
the stars -“Look up at the heavens and count the stars—if indeed
you can count them.” Then He said to him, “So shall your offspring
be.” Genesis 15:5-6
This i plead, even on my knees, me a red-blooded republican whom
will NEVER kneel before any prince or principalities. plead to you
and your kind to do what is necessary to correct the flaws in your
religion in order to fight terrorism, using the 'Lo Hwei Yen
Principal', not for my sake, but the innocent future generations
yet to come.
