No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" ā€œWhen you're left wounded on
Afganistan's plains and

the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle

and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldierā€
General Douglas MacArthur

" ā€œWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā€

ā€œIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā€
ā€œOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
ā€œThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā€
ā€œMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā€
ā€œThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

ā€œNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
ā€œIt is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.
Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

Does Fahmi Fadzil believe what he says? By Commander S THAYAPARAN (Retired) Royal Malaysian Navy
Thursday, July 06, 2023

Malaysiakini : ā€œThat is something portrayed by the media. I understand that there could be a perception of such, but the reality is, there are no camps. What we have now is a PKR that is strong and united.ā€ ā€“ which is Trumpian in its perversity.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim

Or how about when Fahmi confirmed that Anwar had ordered the probe on Baling MP Hassan Saad for allegedly calling him an Israeli agent and then Saifuddin Nasution Ismail claimed otherwise and Lawyers for Liberty (LFL) asked for a clarification?

ā€œIt was Fahmi who made the public statement on Nov 28 that Anwar ordered police to investigate those who slander him or call him an Israeli agent. Fahmiā€™s statement was never rebutted or denied by the Prime Ministerā€™s Office or Anwar himself,ā€ said LFL.

Look, I happen to think that the Lembah Pantai MP has a lot of potential. When lawyer Fadiah Nadwa Fikri was harassed, Fahmi was one of the few political operatives who showed support and made an argument as to why the intimidation should stop. And this was against his own government and security apparatus.

However, things have apparently changed. Between picking fights with Telegram and having miscommunication problems about sending the state security apparatus to the doorsteps of errant social media users, Fahmi has become the poster boy for what Harapan promised not to do when Anwar came into power.

Before and after election

Fahmi recently announced that there were no moves yet to draft laws holding social media companies accountable for fake news.

ā€œWe are currently not taking that direction, but we have a consistent and proactive engagement,ā€ he said.  

The key word here is, yet? This is the problem with Harapan political operatives.

Before an election, they are all about free speech and how the media needs to be free, but after the election when Harapan is so desperate not to spook the Malays or are on the receiving end of the doomsday messaging of their opponents and they see how damaging it is to the economy, they run sacred and attempt to muzzle the press and curtail free speech.

Fahmiā€™s latest announcement of the collaboration between his ministry, the state security apparatus and Meta to curb online crimes, is laughable.

Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil

For instance, when Fahmi said, ā€œI believe that the cooperation established allows scams, online gambling, and 3R issues on the Meta platform to be reduced.ā€ Really? How exactly is Meta going to help with that?

Firstly, online gambling is not something that Meta or any other social media company thinks is detrimental to their bottom line.

Furthermore, 3R issues deal with free speech and does Fahmi really believe that Meta, of all companies, is going to cooperate with his ministry when it comes to an ill-defined concept like 3R when Meta has done nothing to crack down on ā€œhate speechā€ in numerous countries around the world?

What Fahmi is doing is alienating people who are on the Harapan coalition governmentā€™s side by not only playing the heavy but spouting nonsense about 3Rs, disregarding his reformist credentials, and most importantly, aligning with the religious extremists when it comes to cultural issues (ā€˜Pulauā€™ fiasco) and the 3Rs.

When Fahmi claimed that it was a miscommunication about watching your words and being monitored by the authorities, National Human Rights Society (Hakam) president M Ramachelvam said: ā€œAs the communications and digital minister, he should have used his position to answer the comments left by viewers rather than to say the authorities will come after them.

ā€œThreats by government ministers against freedom of expression leave a negative perception of the government (which has a duty) to uphold this fundamental constitutional right guaranteed to citizens,ā€ he told an online news portal.

As the communications and digital minister, Fahmi has real problems. He belongs to a coalition that is at war with a political enemy who has complete supremacy over the social media landscape.

PNā€™s propaganda machine led by PAS has demonstrated that not only are they better at using social media to get their message across, but they have also demonstrated that the legacy media landscape is irrelevant to their political agenda except when it is convenient to use it as a cudgel to whack the prime ministerā€™s supposedly dictatorial style.

I have no idea if Fahmi really believes what he says but what I do know is that one of the more important ministries which could be an asset to this government is becoming a liability under Fahmiā€™s watch.
