I AM PREPPER

putri bahaman posted a comment

salam, firstly sorry for taking some times to respond to your entry dedicated to me.been busy with all 'bread & butter' stuff.actually, after i watched the program i feel quite depressed, and that's why i wrote to you asking about the doomsday prep. personally, i don't think we, can do preparation like that with underground bunker that surely cost a lot. maybe you can suggest something more practical?

My answer

Assalamualaikum Putri,

Well, we can always hope that our government would be able to maintain the peace and prosperity currently enjoyed.

But other than that, there's no shortcut. Simply praying will not suffice. We all have to be Preppers at some level.

Under the concept of Qada and Qadar, we as Moslem cannot simply pray and hope for Allah to do all the work. That's not how the universe work. We ought to remember that all previous prophets were performing even tougher physical efforts than us despite the fact that all their wishes would undoubtedly be okay-ed if they choose to ask from God.

Physical and spiritual efforts must be performed together. That is the underlying principle in Islam. Qada and Qadar teach us that every efforts coupled with doa will 99% be granted by Allah. This is how the universe work by as pre-programmed by God. The only reason why there is 1% probability of failure is if God Himself have to intervene in order to save us from suffering something worse. For example, a guy might miss a plane to his holiday destination one day and he might ended up either cursing fate or thanking God. For example, he might start yelling things like "O MY GOD! Why are you doing this to me? I have work hard to save money for this trip. Didn't I deserve a 7 days break from all the hardship?". What he didn't know is that if God allows him to board that plane, he might inadvertently start a chain of event which lead to the plane crashing resulting to the death of 127 people on board. Similarly, when Khidir sank a boat, some passengers probably hated him thinking that he had prevented them from migrating to a greener pasture. What they didn't know is that Khidir had just saved their family from being brutally raped, tortured and killed by a Tyrant King and his band of barbaric army. Some people might not understand how the universe work, but our life actually are more connected to each others more than we care to imagine. That's why whenever you experienced some bad luck no matter how bad it is, you might want to thank God for saving you from the worst thing that should happen.

If we really wanted to save our self and our family from what might lay ahead, then Qada and Qadar dictates that we have no choice but to pray and become preppers following the foot steps of the people seen in the Youtube Video. Seriously speaking, unless our level of holiness had reached the status of Prophet Ibrahim whom God sent Gabriel to create the source of Zam-Zam water to satisfy thirst, then don't expect God to send Gabriel bringing a few box of McDonald burger and Coke to save us from hunger.

Praying will complete the efforts, but God still want us to move our arse.

That being said Putri, you're totally mistaken to think that it's difficult to become Preppers. Don't be so discouraged watching the Youtube videos I posted in previous articles. Those Preppers seen there are people who have been prepping for many years in order to achieve what they now have. They are the example of what anyone could achieved if persistence and discipline are maintained. The Larson family (the one with underground bunkers) is undoubtedly the winner because their preparation is as good (if not better) as any Illuminist family (Yes, the Illuminist are all preppers too). If you want to think about practicality, I think you should try to adopt the Bedford family's preparation (the lady who store bags of food) and later try to follow the footsteps of the McClung family (the one with the pool who grow their own food). That's a good way to start.

Being a Preppers is actually quite easy. The most difficult part is not changing the lifestyle itself, what's difficult is escaping the stereotype mentality which we have installed into our mind since the beginning of our adult years. I'm talking about our reliance to the banking system.

Since adulthood, we have been thought by the society and the media to rely on the banking system in order to survive. Sometime ago, people becoming too lazy to grow their own food and so they began to devise a way to buy food from others. Hence money was created. Then people who have too much money began to think "I have lots of money but I can't use it all to buy food or otherwise the food will rot in less 7 days". Then Eureka! Since food will always be around (presumably) then why not just store money? Since that day, the banking system began and all sorts of bankers such as money keepers and money lenders began flooding people's life.

The typical mentality of people today is "if there's money, there's life". This is because we always assume that that food will always be around the corner and to get it all we need is to exchange it with a few colorful papers (Money).

The truth is, those bunch of colorful papers we have in our wallet is only good for wiping shit off our ass if not of the banking system. Similarly those plastic card (Credit Card) is only good to spread butter on bread if not of the banking system. It is the bank which gives value to that papers and plastics today.

If we believe in Al-Quran, then we must believe that the days of fitna and hardship is coming. It is therefore stupid to assume that the banking system will still be around during that period. What good would those papers and plastics then?

Preppers according to stereotype definition are people who preparing themselves for doomsday. This is true if define based on their intention. No wonder why the society looks negatively at Preppers. Preppers are perceived as a bunch of freaks and Doomsayers.

However, if we look from the lifestyle point of view, Preppers are in reality just a bunch of people who no longer 100% rely on the banking system. Preppers no longer rely on the bank as a middle man to convert papers (money) into foods and grocery. They eliminate this middle man role by either learning to grow their own food or by immediately purchasing food and store it. Preppers knew that when the banking system collapsed, there will be no fuel and electricity company running and therefore it is wise to learn how to live with a limited supply of it and consequently leave a minimum carbon footprint in their lifestyle.

I will admit that there will be major changes in our life if we decided to escape from the Bank's dominance on our life. For a starter, our preference will have to change into buying everything in cash rather than through loan. Preppers avoid their budget from being impended by the monthly commitment to the bank. Hence they spend every dime wisely to buy things they can only afford in cash.

Preppers have no tendency to change family car every year because the old one (loan fully paid) is good enough as long as it is serves the purpose of transporting them safely from point A to point B. If your husband decided to be a prepper, he will began to show interest to learn DIY (do-it-yourself) in about everything, from fixing the family's vehicle to cementing the crack on the wall. That I believe is a good thing, because a husband would be sexier looking like a mechanic rather than a couch potato.

Preppers have no desire to move into a new house because they know what's matter is not beauty but security. Even if a prepper have to borrow money from the bank to buy a house or a vehicle, preppers will chose an easy mortgage plan which will ensure that there's no risk of the house/vehicle being repossess because they will be spending lots of energy and time installing the best security system for the house. As far I know, no prepper has ever fails in paying the monthly installments for their houses. Preppers house might be small, but upon closer examination you will find out that the doors, the walls and the rooftop had been installed with materials which capable of withstanding any break in attempt.

If you analyze the life of Prepper, you will realize that becoming a prepper family is indeed a good thing. Preppers lead a simple life and avoid owing money unless they have to and can pay back for it. The cardinal rule of every preppers are "always be closed to your family" and as a result every preppers family members are very loving and close to each other. Preppers think something bad might happens tomorrow and therefore they love and cherish each other like the nuke might explode tomorrow, but at the same time they work their asses off making money because they need to fund their preparation for survival. That pretty much how Islam want us to lead our life - Live today like there is no tomorrow and do each prayer like it is your last.

In Malaysia, we are quite lucky because it's not as difficult to become a Prepper unlike the McClung, the Bedford and the Larson in the US. The biggest concern for Preppers in the US is the heavily armed marauders who might come fully equipped with machine gun and rocket launchers. Furthermore, there's quite a number of Nuclear plant in the US which poses a real risk of nuclear fall out. In Malaysia, the biggest threat are merely marauders with knife and machete. Therefore, in order to survive, all we have to do is to figure out a safe passage back to Kampung or to a nearby community for us to seek refuge.

I think it is not too far fetch to say that the only disaster that we might have to survive through is the racial based riot. Whether it be a 2012 corona mass ejection the McClung are predicting, or the hyper inflation feared by the Bedford, or the nuclear explosion foreseen by the Larson, or the election winning of PKR-PAS-DAP I think around the corner of 2013, any type of disaster in Malaysia will be followed by a deadly racial riot. When the banking system goes down and canned foods are missing from the grocery store, the blaming game will begin and one group of a race will began attacking another group of a race.

Therefore it is wise to prepare a refuge somewhere where you can be protected by your own group of race and family members. In order to avoid having to travel outside your refuge area to seek supply, it's wise to start stock piling food in your refuge center like what the Bedford had done with their home.

I am not ashamed to say that I'm sort of a prepper too.. although not as extreme as the McClung, the Bedford and the Larson. I've spent RM4,000 already funding the building of small four bedrooms under my wife parent's house. Fortunately for me my father in law is a house builder and therefore there's no need for me to pay for labor. The three rooms will be used by my in laws to make money via rental and the last room is for me. Once it done (another RM3,000 I expect) I will start modifying it as a small bunker with no windows and steel door. If I can save more money, I want to build a second bunker in the middle of my dad's orchard. Currently I store 12 bags of Beras Nasional and a stock pile of canned foods in a special store in my own house. Once my bunker is ready, I will start storing more rice and other things in my bunker. I'm also browsing the internet to see if anything good can be bought such as solar powered lamp or whatever. If I can afford it, buying a solar panel seems like a good idea.

I say, let us all become a Preppers.. If the whole country become preppers, the only one losing are the Banks. Contrary to what the Bankers might say, Preppers are actually good for economy because they spent every dime they earn on tangible things. If the whole country become Preppers then there would only be a small portion of national wealth sitting idle in the bank because the rest will go into circulation. When people began spending their money and buy tangible items, it will spurs the economy like you won't believe it. Do not be duped by western media who portrayed preppers as harmful to the economy by not spending their savings. Preppers perceive money as it really is - papers - and see no point in stock piling stack of papers for the Armageddon and therefore they always make sure those papers are converted into actual goods while the banking system still standing. It is the millionaires and the billionaires who harm the economy because they kept their money in the bank out of circulation. Preppers do exactly the opposite.

DOOMSDAY PREPPERS

PUTRI send me the following email:

PUTRI: How can I make my preparation other than started reciting al-kahfi(1-10) and doa selepas tahiyat akhir. I don't have enough money to buy land/build house in remote kampung area, just depend on my parent's home. But as I'm living and working in KL, i'm afraid when the disaster/fitna whatsoever come, i'm not well-prepared. i read hadith somewhere 3 years before the emergence of Dajjal, there will be drought condition and water and food supply would be scarce.

ME: Putri, I recorded and posted this documentaries specially for you. I will even write about it. So come visit again and read my answer in full.

QUESTION & ANSWER

I guess you all should have known by now that I'm planning to stop writing for this blog by the end of this month. I'm pretty much repeating what I've done with Anwargate in 1998, writing for a bit more than a year and went AWOL.. It's Afterdark style! Haha..

Anyway, also similar to what I've done to Anwargate, I will end this blog with a Q&A to tie lose some ends. I've selected several questions from my readers which I believe need answers. Some of these questions were posted in this blog's comments section, some were sent via Facebook while the rest were emailed to me.

Here it goes:-

Kardogan765 was referring to my article "MECCA, MEDINA & THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE" when he sent this by email:

Q & A - 1

Kardogan765 = I've already drank several bottles of Zam-Zam water I bought from the stores. Nothing happens. I'm still diabetic and still have to go to the Hospital once a month to get my prescribed medication. So what's next?

Me = You can't get the full benefit of Zam-Zam water by drinking the bottled and/or commercialized version. Zam-Zam water lost its healing property once it leave Tanah Haram. I know this sounds like me trying to make a pathetic excuse, but it's true.

How do I know that? Well my group sort of assumed that from our own study and discussion. Assuming that the Fountain of Youth has a healing property like the Zam-Zam Water, then why do the Luciferians spent billions of dollars trying to make sure the island belongs to them exclusively? Assuming that the rumors is true that Ponce De Leon did found the Fountain of Youth as instructed by Queen Isabella of Castile, then why did the Queen still died? And assuming that Khidir became Immortal after he drank from it, then why does he need to guard it until today?

The answer is simple if you think about it. Because the water only heal you if you drink it fresh from its source. The water and the geographical location where it located is one and together. That's why despite the trailing evidence of Khidir traveling around the globe, he still guarded the source of the water which suggests that he too need to from time to time drink the water from its source.

Furthermore, of all the stories about Khidir around the world, my group found no stories which suggests Khidir has ever bringing along a water container with him. If the water of life can be bottled then of course he (like anyone else) would bottled it up and bring it along either for emergency or sentimental purpose. But he haven't done so because he knew it would be useless to do so.

In my group, we interpret EVERYTHING LITERALLY. In fact, the rule said that everything that did not fit the literal interpretation of the source is considered tampered. That's the first thing we need to do before we start figuring out what the literal meaning will lead us to. LITERAL interpretation of Zam-Zam water is the water which sprang from the spot where Gabriel (Jibril) kicked the ground. Unfortunately that spot is now bricked and covered with steel, preventing public access to it. The one we drink today is from a tap piped out horizontally by the Saudi authority. In the good old day the water from the well was drawn via ropes and buckets, but today the well itself is in a basement room where visitors are not allowed to enter. Scientifically speaking it's still Zam-Zam water, but if I have my way I would prefer to drink from that exact spot where Gabriel's feet had landed before, and I would prefer to drink it while I'm still in Tanah Haram.

Q & A - 2

talkingMIND was referring to my article "WHAT IF?" when she posted this comment:


talkingMIND = can u prove it to me about they who believed to anwar ibrahim are under illuminati charm (being utterly and completely idiots)? or is it they who believed and keep on believing najib-apco are instead, under the charm of illuminati. they trust najib 100%, with the helps from mainstream media especially, he can lie to those who do not have other source to refer. and yet, it is the illuminatis ways to manipulate peoples mind through their own manipulated media. moreover, i dont think they can charm the whole nation, the method they used is just to manipulate the medias (which is what najib is doing currently, not only najib but the other whole PM previously). thank you.

Me = Yes, it's true that present Najib-led government controls the cpmpany which aired the media, but the government did not controls the content of the media itself. The Luciferians does.

I've been planning to write extensively about this but there simply isn't enough time. Therefore, I will try to make my point across as briefly as possible.

The government do controls the news - I admit that. The newspaper and the 8 o'clock news were understandably tailored to favors the government - I admit that too. In fact, newspaper editors and television producers in Kuala Lumpur are probably instructed to make the opposition look bad and Najib look good all the time - I have no problem admitting that may be the case.

But that's now how the Luciferians controls your mind. You are not subjected to mind control program while reading the local newspaper or watching the 8 o'clock news. No it doesn't work that way.

The mind control thing happens subliminally through programs streamed from or made by Hollywood or other companies controlled by the Luciferians. You were subliminally programmed since childhood when you watch the Disney cartoon. Then when you're teenager the programs continued when you hear rock n roll music or watching MTV. When you're an adult you were constantly programmed when you watch everything the Luciferians made - from Cartoon to Music Videos to Movies on the silver screen.

These are the things that no government can control because Hollywood stuff is everywhere in our telly today. In fact, the only people who have spared themselves from such influence is the aboriginal type who still lives on the tree and wear bamboo to cover their genitals.

All mind control programs were communicated subliminally. Some can easily be identified such songs and movies which promotes Lucifersm openly. Black metal songs promotes murder, suicide and satanism. Movies like Twilights, True Blood and Pontianak Kampung Batu on the other hand promotes the idea that unholy creatures can be gentle, kind and cute. Then we have movies which promotes the idea that it's okay to commits the most sinful act. The mainstream media in the west have been planting the idea that it's cool being a gangster, committing adultery, being gay etc etc. In Malaysia it seems like lots of movie producers are endorsing the same idea to be brought on screen.

Even the Disney and Nicklodeaon channel has become evil this day. Lucifersm is very much highlighted in the children series 'House of Annubis'. In other Disney produced series, the 7 cardinal sins such as Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Acedia, Wrath, Envy, Pride, Vainglory are constantly promoted to children. This is rampant in television show like iCarly, Victorious and Big Time Rush, where all the main character are singers or dancers or superstars. None of these characters contributes anything tangible to the world. All they knew is singing and partying.

Other more advance type of mind control are even better concealed. Specific sounds were emitted during the TV programs or movies that can affects your brainwave patterns. Combined with specific keywords which were embedded in the scripts or lyrics, the Luciferian can make mobilize you to vote for certain candidate, join riots, topple your government and even kill your mom and yet you thought the idea is entirely yours.

I guess I have to write about this more soon.. :(

Q & A - 3

Zamariah from Sandakan sent me this question through Facebook:
Kamariah = I read in the comments section you mentioned something about a SUBO project. What's that?

Me = Aaaaahh.. I've been wanting to write about that. I guess I will try to explain it in my novel.

SUBO as some of you might have known already, stands for 'SUSAN BOYLE'. A lot of people around the globe didn't realize the significance of of her story. To most people her story is just about an old lady who shot to fame after briefly appearing before Simon Cowell & Co and sang "I Dream a Dreamt". But for the Illuminati and profiles around the globe, the event which follows her rise to fame is the rarest opportunity to study human science.

Unfortunately, our government failed to notice this worldwide phenomenon occur probably once in a hundred years. The last time the same phenomenon occurred, Hitler came to power and millions died. For researchers who study human behavior, it's not the war that matter. What's important is the study on how Hitler came to power so quickly in a very short of time. The Susan Boyle phenomenon surpassed Hitler by milestones. It is quite correct to say that any government who have study the Susan Boyle Phenomenon can used the knowledge to win every major election. It is also predicted that the data collected from Susan Boyle phenomenon will be used for the future emergence of Dajjal.

As a profiler, I must say that Susan Boyle is the most interesting case-study I've ever participated in my life. Lots of my friends say the same.

For those who have never heard about her, Susan Magdalane Boyle (born 1 April 1961) is a 48 years old Scottish spinster who came to international public attention when she appeared as a contestant on the TV programme Britain's Got Talent on 11 April 2009, singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables. When she first walked on stage people expected her to 'quack like a duck' because of her plain appearance. But instead she sang marvelously and won a standing ovation. Within nine days of the audition, Susan Boyle had been watched over 100 million times over the internet. The whole world falls in love with the woman they barely knew. Her fans practically worship her as 'angel sent from heaven'. In brief, the magnitude of her success is out of this world if we take into consideration the brief period of time it took her to reach there.

The Luciferians saw what's happening, and they took the opportunity to use her case as an experiment. Rupert Murdoch instructed two teams to compete against each other using her as a pawn for data-mining. One team based in England were instructed to unleash the most malicious smearing campaign against her. All tactics known in the political arena to assassinate someone character were used on her. The newspaper was filled with news intended to attack her character. They call her ugly, crazy, arrogant, snobbish, senile, horny, etc etc etc. Another team based in America were tasked to defend her. The media was again used to portray her as kind religious, holy, angelic, humble, charismatic, and beautiful.

The clash of these two titanic experiments proof to be a gold mine for anyone who study human science. Because Susan Boyle was able to survive against the onslaught or character attack by one side of the Illuminati, then she had become sort of a landmark case-study for the 21st century for the Illuminati. If certain characteristic of Susan Boyle is duplicated and adopted to politics, then any candidate pawned by the Illuminati will win the election.

Just imagine how useful such knowledge can be to win the Malaysian 13th General Election?

Our group was also participating in our own group study of her phenomenon. 2009 has been a busy year for us. We watch with our mouth hanging as 'team Susan' defeated the nastiest media attacks the 'team anti-Susan' had deployed. this was unheard for. Yes, we have studied the same phenomenon with Mao-Zedong (his "cultural revolution" euphoria which saw youths all over China worshiped him like God) and Hitler, but that kind of irrelevant already because during the era of Chairman Mao and Hitler, there was no 'new media' (internet, satellite TV, independent TV and radio broadcast) and therefore the government media have total control over the population. Susan Boyle phenomenon is better suited for the new millennium. She has no looks, no charisma, no articulacy, no tertiary education, no real ambition, etc etc. In fact, she's definitely the worst candidate to run a country. However, if she could be nominated for Britain premiership during the peak of her popularity, she could probably win.

It was at this juncture that profilers around the world realized that "religion" is definitely the new theme which will dominate the world politics in this new millennium. Susan Boyle was well accepted by her followers - new and young - because "Team Susan" re-introduced the "traditional value" to the masses. Susan Boyle is a devout catholic and whenever she speaks, "praises to the Lord" seems to be the idea behind her every speech and songs. She has an amazing voice, but it only worked with Broadway music which has the church feeling in it. There has never been a real live TV interview (even during Oprah) because she couldn't inspire people with the fruits of her mind. She only inspires people with the lyric of her song (which is not original because she couldn't write her own song and only sing covers) and the story of her background written by other writers.

To tell you the truth, I'm one of her fan too and I bet even she could give the President of US a run of his money if she could run for Presidency and backed by the Luciferians.

There's an interesting theory we have about Dajjal and the period before his emergence which came to mind whenever I look back at SUBO phenomenon. The theory is not mine but is quite interesting. You may have read it is a website somewhere. If you found this website, then you've found one of my friend in the Watchers Group. Like me, he also own a website and writes his own material. He make this prediction based on his own profiling of SUBO phenomenon.

As you might as well already know, Dajjal only walks the earth for 40 days around the globe and yet the influence he amassed in such a short of time is beyond reality. All women would falls in love with him and all men will adore and follows him. In fact, according to hadith, you may have to chain all the ladies in your hour to prevent them from running away from home to embrace Dajjal.

Setting supernatural power aside, such influence can be generated if key ingredients from SUBO project are deployed and amplified shortly before Dajjal emergence. If media is used to dupe mankind into thinking that the "Saviour of the World" is coming, then by the time Dajjal emerged, all he has to do is rides the global phenomenon already corrupting the world.

Dajjal, as we know, will not appeared with smokes puffing and horns blazing. He will appears as a humble and pious person.

Of course I am not saying here that Susan Boyle is a member of the Luciferians. She's a real deal. Sweet, kind and religious perhaps. But that's not the point. The point is she had provides a new case study for the Luciferians and that is something for us to think about.

(I'm going to stop here.. I'll continue next week)

FRIENDLY REQUEST

Assalamualaikum,

I just want to inform my readers that I'm have started writing my fiction novel 'Jerejak' since yesterday. Actually I have been writing two version of it since a couple of months ago but all those drafts were canceled because of my dislike of how my own style of writing in it.

In the first draft, I tried to adopt a basic novel approach of telling a story from a third person perspective (like Harry Potter books) but I dislike it. I simply have no talent to write as though as I was watching the event from a third person view. Furthermore in the first draft I created a lady character 'Wardina' as the protagonist. Unfortunately after reading the book "Men From Mars and Women From Venus" I began to realize that a male author should never pretend that he knew how a woman talks, act and feel. Another thing which contributed to "Wardina" being canceled was the name 'Wardina' itself. I didn't like the name anymore because it reminds me of one Malaysian celebrity who is clearly pro-Anwar.

In the second draft, I adopted the "Twilight" approach which is to tell the story from a first person perspective. Clearly however I have no talent to follow Stephanie Meyer's style of writing. In order to write in such style one have to 'feel' a lot. In Twilight series you could read everything that Bella was thinking and feeling towards Edward, Jacob and other characters in the story. This clearly a style only female author can accomplish. I tried doing the same and ended up feeling ooey-gooeey (yuck!). I now know why in my single days I haven't been able to write a single love letters to all my ex-girlfriends and even my to-be wife. It turned out I am unable to express my feeling through alphabets even-though I am certainly capable of showing it through conduct.

This third draft is the one which worked for me. It's a memoir style like Tun Mahathir in his book 'A Doctor in a House'. I like it and I think I will be able to finish it. Here I don't have to pretent I'm a woman or feeling like a woman. It's just me writing the way I did since AnwarGate 1998 which is an article style. I maintain the way I writes in all my internet articles. The best of all I can even copy and paste from my previous article and that would save a lot of energy.

I'm now looking for "friends" who can assist me in correcting my English grammar. The article is written in English due to the fact that visitors to my blog are 70% foreigners and 30% local. If you're interested then you're welcome to contact me via my facebook (just search for "afterdarkwrites").

It would also be really helpful if regular readers could leave a comment on how to improve the story. In order to do so, just send a 'Friend Request' via your FaceBook to me. I favors those who are willing to use their real identity in their Facebook as my 'friend' who could leave comments.

It has been decided by my seniors that the novel will comprise of three series. The first shall tell the story of the battle in Jerejak, the second about the battle in Putrajaya and the third the battle in Sarawak near Brunei. Once completed, all stories shall be absolutely FREE for anyone to download and re-distribute as long as the entire story originality is maintain. My previous desire to make any money out of it went into flame the moment I decided that I will mention Anwar Ibrahim and several other real-life person in that novel.

HOLIDAY NOTICE

Hi, I've decided to take a break for a while. I'm thinking about completing a novel which had been on delay for several months already.

However, I noticed on the news just now that MTUC is planning to hold a nationwide picket on 3.11.11. I'm probably paranoid but it's already a habit of mine to be wary of any massive rally scheduled on any Illuminati numbers 3,7,9,11,13,33,39.

So I hope none of my readers would join the picket unless the picket falls on any other numbers. If you do share MTUC opinion, find other ways to voice your grouses. Start a Facebook petition, begin blogging, hack the government website, or erect a gigantic billboard in front of your house displaying your protest (that ought to bring attention!), just don't join any public rally.

Bearing in mind the purpose of the picket is to condemn the proposed amendment to Workers Act, I have no doubt that the majority of people whom are dying to go to the street are pro-opposition.

Me paranoid? Maybe.. But we're living in the age of the Illuminati. It's always better to be paranoid than being too late.

LEGEND OF THE IMMORTAL

ASSALAMULAIKUM, I HAD SPEND THE ENTIRE SEPTEMBER TRYING TO COMPLETE MY ARTICLE ABOUT KHIDIR BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL TO DO SO. I JUST LOST INTEREST AND FOCUS TO WRITE ABOUT IT. HOWEVER, SINCE IT'S ALREADY 1/4 DONE, THEN I'VE DECIDED TO POST IT HERE TO START OF THE OCTOBER UPDATE OF MY BLOG)

Greetings to all my readers and my friends the Malaysian watchers.

There's a guy who sent me an email condemning my last article about Khidir. In case you haven't got a clue of who Khidir was, then kindly peruse me previous article 'the Immortals'. But if you are too lazy to read it, then I shall accommodate your laziness by briefly telling you that Khidir is an immortal who was born during the day of Alexander the Great and is prophesied to be killed by Dajjal (Anti Christ) in the future.

So this guy who dare to condemn me actually said he had never heard of Khidir before. Therefore he accused me of being full of shits. His reasons? Well, he said that it's impossible for any immortal to have live under the radar for thousands of years, avoiding detection by the rest of mortal beings.

Initially, I was quite surprised to hear that. But then again I shouldn't be surprised with the Y generation of today. I mean, most of them might have heard of Nameewee and his film Nasi Lemak 2.0, and yet they haven't even heard about 'As-Sufyani' and 'The Black Banners'.

Ehem.. Clearly some Malays in this country doesn't read books that much.

I would understand how someone would think it is impossible for immortals to have walk on the face of the earth. Logically speaking, if such immortal do exist, then there ought to be slips and mistakes here and there revealing his presence in the course of human's history. Take Lucifer for example, this immortal condemned creature had been know to try his hardest to conceal his existence (ever heard "Devil's greatest lie is that he didn't exist"?) up to the point of concealing his existence from some of the elite members of the Illuminati. But still Lucifer made a slips now and then, didn't he?

Being human and all, I think Khidir did made a few slips throughout centuries. Legends about mysterious men wearing green outfit are abundant all over Europe and the rest of the world even though it rather odd that these legends has never made it into the silver screen.

In continent where Muslims is dominant, this man is quickly rumoured to be Khidir and therefore there's no real mystery there of where he got his supernatural power from. However, in most region in Europe where non-Muslims were not familiar with his history, his exploits there inadvertently caused certain myths such as him being a spirit, a ghost, a saint and even a green spirit of the forest.

Through a brief period of time my group have compiled stories from various sources. In conclusion we believe Khidir is still the same old Khidir who once joined Alexander the Great (Iskandar Zulkarnain). Khidr I believe, is still the same old warrior who wanted to die in battle as Jihadist. This attitude doesn't seems to abate by time. Yes, he does have a bit sense of humour which I think only a Klingon warrior could find funny. And yes, his sense of fashion also haven't change that much because he still prefers green over any other color (even though he also occasionally appears in white).

Now, there are actually several immortals who walked the earth as we speak. There Dajjal (Anti-Christ), Khidir and Ilyas. Then there are immortals who didn't go anywhere such as Harut and Marut whom I recently I learned from an article in Insan-Insan Pendakwah. The immortals who walked the earth probably caused a legend to be born here and there.

Because "legend" by definition is a literary genre that is somewhere between a myth, a tall tale and history, then the story about these immortals had suffered larger-than-life exaggeration and even tailored to fit the situation in the place where it happened. Therefore in order to identify the legend which hinted the presence of Khidir or other immortals, one must not take the entire story as the truth. Instead, we just note the necessary "elements" in order to consider that "Khidir was probably there even though he might not be doing what the legend said he did.

A good example is about the legend of the invincible green warrior St-George. From the onset, a lot of Muslims wouldn't like to like the idea that St.George might be Khidir. This is because St.George is a character in Christian legend. In what best known as the ‘Golden Legend’, a princess was about to be sacrificed to the dragon when St George, who was conveniently passing by, came to her rescue by killing the dragon with a single blow from his lance. The legend goes on about him then delivered a powerful sermon and converted the locals to Christianity.

Now, reading legend like this would certainly make you uneasy because we know Khidir would never choose Chritianity over Islam. However, people often failed to realize that the story about St-George as portrayed by the Christians actually refers to the period before Islam. The Golden Legend itself is a story of which allegedly occured 300 years before the birth of Prophet Muhammad. Therefore it would be unfair to prejudice all those who embraced Christians before the coming of Islam. Furthermore, we all have learn that there's Christians prior to the coming of Islam who are truly "Ahl al-Kitāb" (أهل الكتاب) for example Waraqah Bin Naufal and King Najasyi. As in the case of Najasyi for example, as a true Ahl al-Kitāb he had 'upgraded' his faith from Christian to Islam in a blink of an eye immediately upon learning about Muhammad.

There has been a few stories which suggested Khidir's presence during the Soviet war in Afghanistan (1979–1989). These stories were once distributed through email when Internet in Malaysia was still dial-up at 56.6 kbps. However, these stories are no longer searchable via Google today. Apparently the Illuminati had made sure it's wiped out from the world wide web. There's a story about 25 Mujahideen ambushing 200 Russian armies in Syahturi. After only four hours of battle 70 Russian were dead, 26 were captured alive and the rest of Russian advancement stopped and withdrawn. The Mujahideen actually were puzzled why the Russian fled so soon. It was during interrogation that the Russian prisoners were surprised to learn that they were surrendering to such a small group of Mujahideen. They've swore they have been ambushed from four different directions by what they thought thousands of Mujahideen. They're clearly telling the truth because the injured and dead Russians were suffering gun shoot wounds at different angle of their bodies too. When asked whether any of them have seen these other 'groups' of Mujahideen, they replied they did not but two soldiers did recalled briefly seeing a green clothed man up hill pointing his AK-47 shooting towards the Russian. No Mujahideen had seen the mysterious green man.

Coincidentally enough, that the place where this story took place actually was quite near to a place in Afghanistan named "Khawaja Khidr" (Khawaja Khidr is Khidir's other name in India). How this remote places came to be named "Khawaja Khidr" is beyond me and it doesn't make sense considering that from satellite it can be seen that there's generally nothing there except for hills and forest. This place also one of many few places which had never been attacked by the Russian forces.

(Note: In fact, there's quite a numbers of this place in this world named after him.. I wonder why..)

It is worthy to note that the appearance of mysterious guy in white is quite abundant during the Afghan War. His presence is even reported in Chechen War. Most people said that he's an angel. That's possible, and it is also possible that he's either Ilyas or Khidir. When Moses met Khidir (as told in Al-Quran) Khidir actually was wearing a white robes. Therefore it's apparent that his wardrobe (if he has any) isn't not consist only with green design. In fact, the association of 'green' with Khidir actually is more about the legend that his presence can cause grass to grow. However in most legend he did appeared in green, for example the story about him appearing before Syeikh Abdul Kadir Jailani.

There's a good example of possible hint in the British legend about him. In the 14th-century Arthurian poem Sir Gawain, a mysterious Green Knight appears before King Arthur during a feast being completely green: skin, hair, dress, and all.

It is saif that the green knight holds a bough of holly in one hand, and an enormously menacing battle axe in the other. He appeared before King Arthur and issued a challenge: he will allow one man to strike him one time with his axe, under the condition that he be allowed to return the blow the following year by New Years.

At first, King Arthur stood up to the challenge but other Knight by the name Sir Gawain pulls Arthur aside and accepts the challenge himself. In one swoop, Sir Gawain beheaded the Green Knight only to have the strange Knight calmly stand, retrieve his head, and tell Gawain to meet him at the Green Chapel at the stipulated time (this is one reason why the watcher's think this knight is Khidr because there's a clear indication of immortality here).

A year later Sir Gawain departs to the Green Chapel where Gawain saw the Knight sharpening his axe. Gawain honorably bends to have his head cut off, only to have the Green Knight fake two blows, then barely nick him on the third. The Green Knight then reveals that he merely wanted to test Arthur's court. He and Gawain then part on good terms.

It is possible that Khidir inspire almost a similar legend in Ireland in the 8th century. This time he was a warrior King in Munster located in the south of Ireland with superhuman abilities and a master of disguise possessed of magical powers. When three Irish warrior came before him to be judged of whom amongst them is the true warrior, he devised a brilliant way to test these warriors. He disguised himself as a green giant who offered to have his head beheaded by these warriors. But there's a condition, if he didn't die then he will have his turn to cut their head off the next night.

Each of the three warrior beheaded the giant's head but to their horror saw the giant simply pick up is head and put it back to where it was once. The night after, only a warrior by the name of Cúchulainn came to honour the agreement while the other two cowards had ran away fearing death. Similar to what happened to Sir Gawain, the Giant revealed his true face and declared Cúchulainn as the true warrior for his honorable conduct.

In S.E Asia, the appearance of Khidir can be traced during the Java War. According to an article presented by an Indonesian friend in the Group, during the war the Dutch had killed almost 6000 ulama. Now, the situation in Indonesia with the Dutch East India Company (VOC) has one stark contrast with Tanah melayu and the British. Unlike the British, the VOC is somewhat similar to the Portuguese who came to Malays Archipelago not only because of greed, but also because they're spreading Christian. During the war, the stories about how several religious figures were visited and guided by Khidir is quite common.

There are quite a lot of people in this world who had taken interest on profiling Khidir. Of all these people, the one who had spent the most money (billions) and years (hundreds) tracking down Khidir is the Illuminati themselves. Nowadays, one of the task of NSA supercomputers is gathering intels on possible location of Khidir. The computers roamed the world wide web and telecommuniation network trying to pick up bits and pieces which may led to his where about. Naturally, words like "khidir", "green men", "men in green", "green ghost", "green wizard" etc etc had become part of triggering keywords which led the NSA to point their satellite on that exact location.

This "leave-no-stone-unturn" searches sometimes even went overboard. For example when report first emerged about vegetation blooming in the arctic due to global warming, the NSA sent their military over the place to check things out ahead of the scientists. Even today whenever there were report about vegetation appears in places where it shouldn't be, the Illuminati will check these places out. The reason? Well, because it is widely believed that whenever Khidir hang around in one places for a while, grass and other vegetation started to bloom.

There were probably some truth in this legend because that would explain why sightings of the legendary "green man" mostly happens in the woods. I mean, what's better way to hide a leaf if not in the forest, right? If he inadvertently caused grass to grow wherever he went, then it's good strategy to journey in the forest where there's already plenty of bushes around to camouflage the trace.

In Europe, the legend has been around about a mysterious green man who walks alone in the forest. Because of his mystical power, The Green Man was thought as spirit the vegetative realm. The legend goes back many centuries. Usually mistaken as a pagan deity, the "Green Man" artwork can be found carved on buildings and even churches dating from the 11th century through to the 20th century. However there are no examples of the Green Man on any buildings or in any artwork pre-dating the 11th Century, supporting the idea that it was actually an imported motif, most likely from India brought over via Silk Route traders in the 11th century.

In India, he is known as Khwaja Khizr, or Pir Badar, or Raja Kidar, and is the object of a still surviving popular cult common to Muslims and Hindus. Iconographically from the Indian legends, Khwaja Khizr is represented as an aged man, having the aspect of a faqir, clothed entirely in green and moving in the waters with a ‘fish’ as his vehicle. In Indian legend, Khwaja Khizr is said to be the the guardian of the Water of Life (amrta) and Master of all jungle creatures. Therefore when the princess of Indian serpents went to get the water, Khwaja Khizr ordered her to reveal her human form first before allowing her to get some.

You might be wondering by now what's the point of trying to collect stories about Khidir around the world. What's the need of trying to learn about this immortal man?

Actually, I'm not sure why myself. I can speculate why the Illuminati is looking for him though. I bet they're thinking that if they locate where he is, than that could hinted to the location of Al-Mahdi too. It makes sense, from our profiling we began to see some patterns in all his previous appearances. This man who have mastered the knowledge on how to see the future, had developed a habit of visiting some of the most prominent figures who later cause a ripple in the fabric of time. Whether this appearance were caused by his curiosity or simply an urge to approach and guide the people he perceived as historical figures, that I don't know. From Salehuddin Al-Ayubi to Sunan Kalijaga (Indonesia) to Imam Shamil (Chechnya).

I would like to share a few stories about what I believe the involvement of Khidir in Chechnya. These are stories told to me by a Chechen friend. Now, for those who have watched 'Jejak Rasul 2011' in TV3 this year, they would no doubt familiar with Imam Shamil whom untill today is hailed as the ultimate freedom fighters from Chechnya. According to legend, the said Imam was

BIOGRAPHY OF IMAM SHAMIL

It's been more than a month now and I'm still stuck at finishing my latest article about the immortal Khidir. This is weird (for me) because the longest it usually take for me to complete an article is 2 or 3 days max. But for this article, I'm stuck. I do have my materials at hand and yet the desire to continue writing my profiling of Khidir seems to melt away for no apparent reason.

Weird..

Anyway, I was cross referencing some materials I have about Khidir with whatever I can find in the internet (I was reading the article to see if any materials I have regarding his alleged encounter with Khidir can be verified via other sources) and I found this great great great article about the Chechen Legend Imam Shamil. So I decided to re-post it here instead.

You should read this great story. There's something in this story which hinted the presence of Khidir. See if you can find it and tell me which one it is. If you can find it then maybe you do have a talent to be a profiler.

Biography of Imam Shamil
(Pir Of Ugali Sharif, Khushab)

Imam Shamil was born in 1797, in the small village (aul) of Gimry, which is in current-day Dagestan , Russia

The Chechen peoples desperate struggle for freedom has taken many Muslims by surprise. As with Bosnia three years ago, the very existence of this Muslim country was unknown to many in our community. But now, as the savage hordes of Tsar Boris the First pour down from the barbarian lands of the north to bring fire and the sword to the Chechens, it is worth remembering that the Caucasus has always been the graveyard of Christian invaders and the birthplace of Muslim heroes whose names still resound in the forests and valleys of that most romantic of all mountain lands.

Caucasian life was dominated by the blood-vendetta, the kanli, which ensured that no wrong, however slight, could go unavenged by the relatives of a victim. Tales abound in the Chechen epic literature of centuries-long conflicts which began with the simple theft of a chicken, and ended with the death of an entire clan. Warfare was constant, as was the training for it; and young men prided themselves in their horsemanship, wrestling, and sharpshooting.

Muslims have never conquered the Caucasus: even the Sahaba, who swept before them the legions of Byzantium and Persia , stopped short at these forbidding cliffs. For centuries, its people continued in their pagan or Christian beliefs; while the Muslims of neighbouring Iran regarded it with terror, believing that the Shah of all the Jinn had his capital amid its snowy peaks.

But where Muslim armies could not penetrate, peaceful Muslim missionaries slowly ventured. Many achieved martyrdom at the hands of the wild, angry tribesmen; but slowly the remote valleys and even the high aouls accepted the faith. The Chechens, Avars, Circassians and Daghestanis entered Islam; and by the eighteenth century, only the Georgians and the Armenians were still unconverted.

But despite this victory, a new threat was gathering on the horizon. In 1552, Ivan the Terrible had captured and destroyed Kazan , the great Muslim city on the upper Volga . Four years later the Russian hordes reached the Caspian. At their van rode the wild Cossacks, brutal horsemen who reproduced themselves by capturing and marrying by force the Muslim women who fell into their hands. As pious as they were turbulent, they never established a new settlement without first building a spectacular church, whose tolling bells rang out over the Tsars everexpanding empire in the steppes.

By the late eighteenth century the Christian threat to the Caucasus had not gone unnoticed by the mountain tribes. Their lack of unity, however, made effective action impossible, and soon the fertile lowlands of North Chechenia and (further west) the Nogay Tatar country were wrested from Muslim hands. The Muslims who remained were forced to become the serfs agricultural slaves of Russian lords. Those who refused or ran away were hunted down in an aristocratic Russian version of fox-hunting. Some were skinned, and their skins were used to make military drums. The enserfed women often had to endure the confiscation of their babies, so that the pedigree Russian greyhounds and hunting dogs could be nourished on human milk.

Overseeing this policy was the empress Catherine the Great, who sent the youngest of her lovers, Count Platon Zubov (he was twenty-five, she seventy), to realise the first stage of her Pan-Orthodox dream by which all Muslim lands would be conquered for Christianity. Zubovs army broke up along the Caspian shores, but the warning had been sounded. The Caucasus looked up from its internal strife, and knew it had an enemy.

The first coherent response to the danger came from an individual whose obscure but romantic history is very typical of the Caucasus . He is known only as Elisha Mansour an Italian Jesuit priest sent to convert the Greeks in Anatolia to Catholicism. To the anger of the Pope, he soon converted enthusiastically to Islam, and was sent by the Ottoman sultan to organise Caucasian resistance against the Russians.. But at the battle of Tatar-Toub in 1791 his resistance came to an untimely end; and, captured by the enemy, he spent the rest of his life a prisoner at a frozen monastery in the White Sea , where monks laboured unsuccessfully to bring him back to the Christian fold.

Mansour had failed, but the Caucasians had fought like lions. The flame of resistance which he lit soon spread, nursed and fanned by one man of genius: Mollah Muhammad Yaraghli. Yaraghli was a scholar and a Sufi, deeply learned in the Arabic texts, who preached the Naqshbandi Way to the harsh mountaineers. Although he converted many thousands, his leading pupil was Ghazi Mollah, a religious student of the Avar people of Daghestan, who began his own preaching in 1827, selecting the large aoul of Ghimri to be the centre of his activities.

For the next two years Ghazi Mollah proclaimed his message. The Caucasians had not accepted Islam fully, he told them. Their old customary laws, the "adat", which differed from tribe to tribe, must be replaced by the Sharia. In particular, the kanli vendettas must be suppressed, and all injustices dealt with fairly by a proper Islamic court. Finally, the Caucasians must restrain their wild, turbulent egos, and tread the hard path of self-purification. Only by following this prescription, he told them, could they overcome their ancient divisions, and stand united against the Christian menace.

In 1829, Ghazi Mollah judged that his followers had absorbed enough of this message for them to begin the final stage: of political action. He travelled throughout Daghestan, openly preaching against vice, and overturning with his own hand the great jars of wine traditionally stored in the centre of the aouls. In a series of fiery sermons he urged the people to take up arms for the Ghazwa: the armed resistance: A Muslim may obey the Sharia, but all his giving of Zakat, all his Salat and ablutions, all his pilgrimages to Makka, are as nothing if a Russian eye looks upon them. Your marriages are unlawful, your children bastards, while there is one Russian left in your lands!

It was the time of Jihad, he proclaimed. The great Islamic scholars of Daghestan gathered at the mosque of Ghimri, and, acclaiming him Imam, pledged their support.

The murids at Ghimri, standing out from the other mountaineers by their black banners, and the absence of any trace of gold or silver on their clothes and weapons, marched out behind Ghazi Mollah, chanting the Murid battle-cry: La ilaha illaLlah. Their first target was the aoul of Andee, which was submissive towards the Russians; but so impressive were the Murids that at the very sight of their silent ranks the formerly treacherous village submitted without a fight. Ghazi Mollah then turned his attention to the Russians themselves.

At this time, the Russians had moved few colonists into the region. Large military outposts had been established in the plains to the north, at Grozny , Khasav-Yurt and Mozdok, but elsewhere the process of clearing the Muslims from the land had only just begun. Ghazi Mollah could therefore count on local support when he attacked the Russian fort of Vnezapnaya. Without cannon, he proved unable to capture it; but its defenders, commanded by Baron Rosen, were forced to send for help. This came in the form of a large relief column, which, thinking it feared nothing from the Muslims, pursued them into the great forest which then stood south of Grozny .

In the dark woods, the murids were fighting on their own ground. Shooting from the branches of the giant beech trees, constructing traps and pitfalls for the stoical but disoriented Russians, they methodically picked off the enemy officers, and captured many of the bewildered foot-soldiers. In this twilight world of vast beech trees and tangled undergrowth, the lumbering Russian column, led by priests bearing icons and huge crosses, and burdened with oxcarts carrying five-foot samovars and cases of champagne for the officers, found itself slowly eroded and scattered. Only remnants emerged from the woods: and the first Mujahideen victory had been won.

Baying for revenge, the Russians attacked the Muslim town of Tschoumkeskent , which they captured and razed to the ground. But they paid heavily for this conquest: four hundred Russians had been killed in the operation, and only a hundred and fifty Murids. Even greater was their humiliation at Tsori, a mountain pass where four thousand Russian troops were held up for three days by a barricade, which, they later found to their chagrin, was manned by only two Chechen snipers.

Raging, the Russians rampaged through Lower Chechenya , burning crops, and destroying sixty-one villages. Slowly, the Chechen and Daghestani murids retreated to the mountains behind them. Ghazi Mollah and his leading disciple Shamyl decided to make a stand at Ghimri. After a bitter siege, with many casualties on both sides, the aoul was stormed by the Russians troops, who found Ghazi Mollah among the dead. Still seated on his prayer-carpet, the Imam, uncannily, kept one hand on his beard, and the other pointing to the sky. But in the meantime, his deputy, fighting with sixty murids in defence of two stone towers, seemed invincible, picking off with unerring aim any Russian who came near. At last, when only two Murids remained alive, Shamyl emerged, to imaugurate a reputation for heroism in combat which would resound throughout the Muslim Caucasus. As a Russian officer described the incident:

“It was dark: by the light of the burning thatch we saw a man standing in the doorway of the house, which stood on raised ground, rather above us. This man, who was very tall and powerfully built, stood quite still, as if giving us time to take aim. Then, suddenly, with the spring of a wild beast, he leapt clean over the heads of the very line of soldiers about to fire on him, and landing behind them, whirling his sword in his left hand, he cut down three of them, but was bayoneted by the fourth, the steel plunging deep into his chest. His face still extraordinary in its immobility, he seized the bayonet, pulled it out of his own flesh, cut down the man and, with another superhuman leap, cleared the wall and vanished into the darkness. We were left absolutely dumbfounded.”

The Russians paid little attention to Shamyl's escape, confident that with the destruction of the Murids capital they had achieved a final victory. They could not guess that thirty years of war, at a price of half a million Russian lives, awaited them at his hands.

After his dramatic escape from Ghimri, the wounded Shamyl painfully made his way to a saklia, a cottage in the glacier-riven heights of Daghestan. A shepherd sent word to his wife Fatima, who came secretly to him, and nursed him through a long fever, binding up eighteen bayonet and sword wounds. Months later, Shamyl was able once more to travel, and hearing of the death of Ghazi Mollahs successor, was acclaimed by the Muslims as al-Imam al-Azam, Leader of all the Caucasus .

Shamyl had been born in 1796 to a noble family from the Avar people of southern Daghestan. Growing up with his friend Ghazi Mollah, he divided his austere childhood between the mosque and the narrow terraces around Ghimri, where he grazed his familys sheep. Often he would look over the edges, down into the five thousand foot abyss beneath the village, and watch the lightning flash in the thunderclouds below. In the further distance, on the slopes, could be seen the ghostly glow of naphtha fires, where natural oil came bubbling up through the stones, burning for years.

This harsh landscape, and the rigorous Caucasian upbringing which went with it, accustomed the future Imam to a life with few worldly pleasures. When only a child, he persuaded his father to abandon alcohol by threatening to fall on his own dagger if he did not stop. The difficult spiritual discipline required of him as a young scholar seemed to come naturally, and by his early twenties he was renowned for all the virtues which the Caucasus respected: courage in battle, a mastery of the Arabic language, Tafsir and Fiqh, and a spiritual nobility which left a profound impression on all who met him.

Together with Ghazi Mollah, he bacame the disciple of Muhammad Yaraghli, the strict mystically-minded scholar who taught the young men that their own spiritual purity was not enough: they must fight to make Allah's laws supreme. The Sharia must replace the pagan laws of the Caucasian tribes. Only then would Allah give them victory over the Russian hosts.

Shamyl's first exploits as Imam were purely defensive. The Russians under General Fese had launched a new attack on Central Daghestan . Here, in the aoul of Ashilta, as the Russians approached, two thousand Murids took an oath on the Quran to defend it to the death. After a bitter hand-to-hand fight through the streets, the Russians captured and destroyed the town, taking no prisoners. The stage was set for a long and bitter war.

Shamyl was no stranger to war with Europeans. While performing the Hajj in 1828, he had met Emir Abd al-Qader, the heroic leader of Algerian resistance against the French, who shared with him his views on guerilla warfare. The two men, although fighting three thousand miles from each other, were very similar both in their scholarly interests and in their methods of war. Both realised the impossibility of winning pitched battles against the large and well-equipped European armies, and the need for sophisticated techniques for dividing the enemy and luring him into remote mountains and forests, there to be dispatched by quick, elusive guerilla attacks.

The weakness of Shamyl's position in the Caucasus was his need to defend the aouls. His men, moving with lightning speed, could always dodge an enemy, or deal him a surprise blow from behind. But the villages, despite their fortifications, were vulnerable to Russian siege methods backed up with modern artillery.

Shamyl learnt this lesson in 1839, at the aoul of Akhulgo. This mountain fastness, protected by gorges on three sides, was itself divided into two by a terrifying chasm spanned by a seventy-foot bridge of wooden planks. Akhulgo had already filled with refugees fleeing from the Russian advance, and the presence of so many women and children to feed made the prospect of a long siege an ugly one. But he would retreat no further: here he made his stand.

By this time, the Naqshbandi army numbered some six thousand, divided into units of five hundred men, each under the command of a Naib (deputy). These Naibs, tough and scholarly, were a mystery to the Russians. In the thirty years of the Caucasian war, not one was ever captured alive. At Akhulgo, these men fortified the settlement as best they could, and then, in the evening after sunset prayers, went upon the roofs to sing Shamyl's Zabur, the religious chant he had composed to replace the trivial drinking-songs they had known before. There were many other chants, too; the most familiar to the Russians being the Death Song, heard when a Russian victory seemed imminent and the Chechens tied themselves to each other, and prepared to fight to the end.

The Russian attack began on June 29. The Russians attempted to scale the cliffs, and lost three hundred and fifty men to the Mujahideen, who threw rocks and burning logs upon them. Chastened, the Russians withdrew for four days, until they could place their artillery so as to bombard the walls from a safe distance. But although the walls were pounded to rubble, each time the Russians attacked, the Murids appeared from the ruins of the aoul and threw them back with heavy casualties.

Conditions in the village, however, were becoming desperate. Many had died, and their bodies were rotting under the summer sun, spreading a pestilential stench. Food supplies were almost exhausted. Hearing this news from a spy, the Russian general, Count Glasse, decided on an allout assault. Three columns he directed to attack simultaneously, thereby dividing the defenders fire.
The first column, carrying scaling ladders, climbed a cliff on one side of a ravine. But from the apparently bare rocks on the opposing cliff, gunfire directed by Chechen sharpshooters decimated their ranks within minutes. The officers were soon all killed, and the six hundred men, their backs against the cliff, were left trapped by the Murids in the knowledge that exhaustion and exposure would finish them off before dawn.

The second column attempted to make its way to the aoul along the ravine floor. This too ended in disaster, as the defenders rolled down boulders upon them, so that only a few dozen returned. The third column, inching along a precipice, found itself attacked by hundreds of women and children who had been hidden in caves for safety. The women cut their way through the Russian ranks, while their children, daggers in both hands, ran under the Russians and slashed at them from beneath. Here, as always in Chechenya, the women fought desperately, knowing that they had even more to lose than the men. Under this screaming and bloody onslaught, the Russian column staggered and fell back.

Baffled, Count Glasse sent a messenger to Shamyl to arrange a parley. Conditions at the aoul were extreme, and Shamyl, with a heavy heart, struck a deal, agreeing to release his eight-year old son Jamal al-Din as a hostage, on condition that the Russian army departed and left the aoul in peace. But no sooner had the boy been put on the road to St Petersburg than the artillery barrage opened up again, and Akhulgo was once more pounded from every side. Shamyl realised that he had been duped.

The next day, the Russians advanced again on Akhulgo, and found it populated only ravens greedily feeding on corpses. The survivors had slipped away during the night. The only Muslims to remain, those too weak to withdraw, were discovered hiding in the caverns in the nearby cliffs, which were reached with the utmost difficulty. A Russian officer later recorded this as follows:

“We had to lower soldiers by means of ropes. Our troops were almost overcome by the stench of the numberless corpses. In the chasm between the two Akhulgos, the guard had to be changed every few hours. More than a thousand bodies were counted; large numbers were swept downstream, or lay bloated on the rocks. Nine hundred prisoners were taken alive, mostly women, children and old men; but, in spite of their wounds and exhaustion, even these did not surrender easily. Some gathered up their last force, and snatched the bayonets from their guards. The weeping and wailing of the few children left alive, and the sufferings of the wounded and dying, completed the tragic scene.”

Shamyl had made a desperate attempt to lead his family and disciples away during the night. His wife Fatima was eight months pregnant, and his second wife Jawhara was carrying her two month- old baby Said. But together they managed to inch along a precipice unknown to the Russians, until they reached the torrent below. Here, the Imam brought a tree down to form a makeshift bridge. Fatima crossed safely with her younger son Ghazi Muhammad; but Jawhara was spotted by a Russian sharpshooter, who killed her with a single bullet, sending her and her child toppling over to vanish into the raging torrent. Slowly, Shamyl, his depleted family, and the surviving Mujahideen, dodged the Russian patrols, who were now being aided by the Ghimrians who had gone over to the Russian side. Once they encountered a Russian platoon, and in the ensuing fight the young Ghazi Muhammad received a bayonet wound.. But
Count Grabbes report described the capture of Akhulgo in glowing terms. The Murid sect, he wrote, has fallen with all its followers and adherents. The Tsar was delighted; but again, the Russian celebrations were premature. While Shamyl was free he was undefeated. And Moscow had once again given the Caucasus reason to seek freedom.

In 1840, Shamyl raised a new army, and again unfurled his black banners. With the Russians falling back along the Black Sea coast in the face of a Circassian uprising, conditions were right for a major campaign, and by the end of the year, the Imam had retaken Akhulgo, and led his forces onto the plains of Lower Chechenya , capturing fort after fort. The Russian response was chaotic: one sortie led by Grabbe resulted in the death of over two thousand Russians. A new commander, the Tsars favourite General Neidhardt, promised to exchange Shamyl's head for its weight in gold to anyone who could capture him; but all in vain. Again and again the Imperial legions were drawn into the dark forests, divided, and annihilated.

Shamyl's techniques, meanwhile, were improving all the time. On one occasion, he attacked a Russian position with ten thousand men, only to reappear less than twenty-four hours later fifty miles away, to attack another outpost: an astonishing feat. One military historian has written: The rapidity of this long march over a mountainous country, the precision of the combined operation, and above all the fact that it was prepared and carried out under the Russians very eyes, entitle Shamyl to rank as something more than a guerilla leader, even of the highest class.

Russia 's next move was a bold attack by ten thousand men on Shamyl's new capital of Dargo. The commander, General Vorontsov, drove through Chechenya and Central Daghestan , encountering little resistance, and finding that Shamyl had burnt the aouls rather than allow them to fall into his hands. Confident, and contemptuous of the Asiatic rabble, he decided to lunge through the final ten miles of forest that separated him from Dargo and Shamyl's warriors. But when the Russians arrived, again to find that Shamyl had fired the aoul, and turned to retrace their steps, disaster overtook them. Shamyl had watched their advance through his telescope, and calmly directed his Murids to take up positions from which to ambush and harry the Russians. Fighting alongside the Muslims were six hundred Russian and Polish deserters, who dismayed the Russian troopers by singing old army songs at night, their mocking voices rising eerily from the hidden depths of the forest.

Shamyl had positioned four cannon slightly above the devastated aoul, and the Russians charged these and took them with little difficulty. But their way back lay through cornfields that concealed dozens of Murids, who stood up to fire, hiding themselves again before the dazed Russians could shoot back. A hundred and eighty-seven men died before the remains of this column rejoined the main army. Not even the bayoneting of the Chechen prisoners could raise Russian spirits after this omen of impending disaster.

The Russians now began to retreat back through the forest. But the woods were now alive with unseen foes. Slippery barricades blocked their way, and forced them to leave the paths, slashing their way towards ambuscades and bloody confusion. Hundreds of Russians died, including two generals. Heavy rain turned the paths to mud, and made rifles useless, so that at times the two sides fought silently with stones and bare hands. To escape the invisible snipers, the terrified Vorontsov himself insisted on being carried inside an iron box on the shoulders of a colonel. Thus trapped, with over two thousand wounded, and with only sixty bullets left apiece, the desperate Russians sent messengers to General Freitag at Grozny , begging for reinforcements.

At this crucial moment, Imam Shamyl received news that his wife Fatima was dying. He immediately gave orders for the continuing of the battle, and left for the day-long journey to the aoul where she lay. After holding her in his arms as she died, he rode back, to discover, to his deep distress, that his men had disobeyed him. Melting away at the sight of Freitags troops, they had allowed Vorontsovs column to limp out of the forest without further loss. Shamyl boiled with fury, and he fiercely denounced those who had shown faintheartedness instead of clinching the victory. But Russia had paid dearly, as the forest soil of Dargo folded around the bodies of three generals, two hundred officers, and almost four thousand infantrymen. Even today, Russian soldiers remember the Dargo catastrophe in a gloomy song:
In the heat of noonday,
in the vale of Daghestan,
With a bullet in my heart, I lie ...

For another ten years, Shamyl's flags flew over Chechenya and Daghestan, proclaiming what Caucasians still refer to as the Time of Sharia. The Tsar, fuming in his vast palace in St Petersburg , received message after courteous message from his generals praising their own victories; yet still Shamyl ruled. Vorontsov, Neidhardt and others were recalled, and died in gilded obscurity. But in 1851, command was given to a younger man, General Beriatinsky, the Muscovy Devil who was to change the course of the war for ever.

The new Russian commander knew his enemy, and adapted his techniques accordingly. He knew that the Chechens disliked going into battle unless they had performed their wudu-ablutions, so he ensured that great dams were built to cut off the water supply to his opponents. He adopted a policy of bribing villages into accepting Russian authority, and delayed the enserfment process indefinitely. He ended the former policy of informally butchering women and children during the capture of aouls. But his most significant innovation was his long, slow campaign against the forests. Like the Americans in Vietnam and the French in Algeria , he realised that his enemy could only be defeated on open ground. He thus deputed a hundred thousand men to cut down the great beech trees of the region. Some were so vast that axes were inadequate, and explosives had to be used instead. But slowly, the forests of Chechenya and Daghestan disappeared; while Shamyl, watching from the heights, could do nothing to bring them back.

In 1858, the last great battle erupted. The Ingush people, driven from their aouls by the Russians into camps around the garrison town of Nazran , revolted, and called on Shamyl for aid. He rode down from the mountains with his mujahideen, but sustained a crippling defeat under the cannon of a relief column sent to support the beleaguered garrison. When he returned to the mountains, he found the support of his people beginning to melt away. Whole aouls went over to the Russians rather than submit to siege and inevitable destruction. Even some of his most faithful lieutenants deserted him, and guided Russian troops to attack his few remaining redoubts.

In June 1859, Shamyl retreated to the most inaccessible aoul of all: Gounib. Here, with three hundred devoted Murids, he determined to make a last stand. The Russians were driven back time and again; but finally, after praying at length, and moved by Beriatinskys threat to slaughter his entire family if he was not captured alive, he agreed to lay down his arms.

Thus ended the Time of Sharia in the Caucasus . The Imam was transported north to meet the Tsar, and then banished to a small town near Moscow . Here he dwelt, with a diminishing band of family and relations, until 1869, when the Tsar allowed him to leave and live in retirement in the Holy Cities. His last voyage, through Turkey and the Middle East , was tumultuous, as vast crowds turned out to cheer the Imam whose name had become a legend throughout the lands of Islam.

His son Ghazi Muhammad, released from Russian captivity in 1871, travelled to meet him at Makka. He arrived, however, when the Imam was away on a visit to Madina. As he was walking around the Holy Kaba, a tattered, green-turbaned man came up and suddenly cried, O believers, pray now for the great soul of the Imam Shamyl!

It was true: on that same day, Shamyl, murmuring Allah! Allah!, had passed on to eternal life in Paradise . He was buried, amid great throngs and much emotion, in the Baqi Cemetery . But his name lives still; and even today, in the homes of his descendents in Istanbul and Madina, in flats whose walls are still adorned with the faded banners of black, mothers sing to their children words which will be remembered for as long as Muslims live in Chechenya and Daghestan:

O mountains of Gounib,
O soldiers of Shamyl,
Shamyl's citadel was full of warriors,
Yet it has fallen, fallen forever ..

YOUTUBE: MAHATHIR PART 2

YOUTUBE: VAT 69 MALAYSIA VERY ABLE TROOPERS

If we applied PAS and opposition's definition, then every members of arm forces who received a government paycheck prior to independence are 'enemy of the state'. Therefore they will consider these guys in VAT 69 as enemies too/

That's how stupid opposition members and supporters are.

Of course in 10 years time when the whole malay race had lost everything they used to have, these supporters of Pakatan will simply deny they've ever voted for Anwar Ibrahim and Pakatan. Each and everyone of them will say they have always been staunch supporters of UMNO.

They're shameless bunch of people.

If only there's a way to tag each and every supporters of the opposition today, that would make it easy for the black banners to identify each and every one of them in the future.

69 Komando telah dilatih khusus oleh pasukan United Kingdom Special Air Service Regiment pada tahun 1969 untuk membanteras sebarang kegiatan insurgensi oleh Parti Komunis Malaya. Nama 69 Komando ini diambil bersempena tahun 1969 ditubuhkan sebagai unit tempur khas untuk menghapuskan sebarang bentuk teknik pertempuran dan taktik gerila oleh pengganas komunis.

Penubuhan unit ini bermula apabila Menteri Pembangunan dan Keselamatan Dalam Negeri, Allahyarham Tun Dr. Ismail mengemukakan cadangan untuk menubuhkan satu pasukan elit untuk menentang sebarang bentuk ancaman insurgensi komunis pada tahun 1969. Pada bulan Oktober 1969, lebih kurang 60 daripada 1600 pegawai dan anggota Pasukan Polis Hutan (sekarang Pasukan Gerakan Am, PGA) telah dipilih dalam sesi latihan 69 Komando dan akan menjalani latihan asas komando. Sepasukan jurulatih dari United Kingdom Special Air Service Regiment telah dihantar ke Fort Kemar Grik, Perak untuk melatih platun percubaan 69 Komando.

Diakhir latihan ini, hanya 30 orang sahaja yang berjaya dan merupakan trup nukleus pertama 69 Komando. Pada tahun 1970an, unit ini memulakan operasi komandonya dan telah dihantar untuk menghapuskan pengganas komunis di hutan. Keputusannya, ramai di antara pengganas komunis telah dibunuh, dicederakan dan lain-lain berjaya ditangkap serta jumlah senjata dan kelengkapan komunis berjaya dirampas.

Pada tahun 1977, skuadron 69 Komando telah pertingkatkan kepada 3 pasukan dan telah dilatih oleh New Zealand Special Air Service serta mengadakan kursus khas untuk melatih para jurulatih 69 Komando yang terdiri daripada anak watan Malaysia sendiri. Program ini berjaya pada tahun 1980 dan unit ini mempunyai sebarang kelengkapan khas dan keperluan logistiknya sendiri.

MALU BESAR MELAYU TAHUN 2011

Kenapa saya menulis dalam bahasa melayu kali ini?

Sebab saya malu hendak berkongsi kandungan artikel ini dengan sahabat-sahabat saya daripada kumpulan Pemerhati (Watchers Group) yang merupakan pembaca teramai melawati laman blog saya ini.

Kenapa pula saya malu? Ini alkisahnya..

Kelmarin ayah dan ibu saya datang ke rumah saya untuk melawat cucu-cucunya (bukan nak melawat saya dan isteri pun.. semenjak ada cucu ni maka anak dan menantu turun kasta). Jadi semasa berbual-bual semasa makan malam, ayah saya menceritakan diskusi yang berlaku antara dia dan Herman iaitu warga Indonesia yang digaji sebagai pemungut buah kelapa sawit di kebun 15 ekar ayah saya.

Sebelum itu perlu saya beritahu dahulu bahawa ramai warga Indonesia yang berkelulusan 'ada-ada' sanggup berhijrah ke Sabah untuk mencari kerja hatta sebagai penjaga kebun. Herman ini sudah lama kami ketahui merupakan siswazah daripada Universiti Negeri Makassar. Kami tidak pernah pula melihat sijilnya namun dia seringkali berkata bahawa dia dari Jurusan Sains Sosial. Yang pasti ialah dia memang petah bercakap dan kelihatan berpelajaran.

Kenapa dia sehingga merantau berkerja kebun? Katanya dia sedang menumpul modal untuk menebus kebun keluarganya di kampung. Ternyata gaji dan komisyen sebagai pengumbul buah kelapa sawit lebih lumayan daripada berkerja kantor di Indonesia.

Oleh kerana ayah saya tiada teman berbual mengenai politik (kerana saya tinggal dan berkerja di daerah lain) maka si Herman inilah yang selalu jadi temannya. Minggu lepas Herman telah bertanya kepada ayah saya mengenai isu Mat Sabu. Kira-kira beginilah bunyi pertanyaannya itu (mengikut kata ayah saya).

Herman "Melayu Malaysia ternyata aneh ya Pak. Masa melayu komunis bisa dianggkat sebagai pahlawan. Malahan yang mengangkat itu agamawan lagi katanya"

Ayah saya menjawab "Biasalah dalam politik. Namanya mahu menang pilihanraya maka semua pun dibohongi asalkan boleh menang undi Cina"

Herman "di Indonesia pun bangsanya lagi gemar berpolitik pak. Malahan di sana lagi besar demonya Pak dan lagi banyak orpol dan parpolnya Pak. Namun tidak pernah ada yang kekeliruan dalam membicarakan kebejatan komunis. Saya jamin kalau ada orang seperti agamawan Malaysia itu di Indonesia, pasti sudah dipenggal kepalanya oleh penduduk kampung".

Ayah saya: "Mungkin keadaan di Indonesia dan Malaysia berbeza".

Herman: "Ampun pak, harap jangan kecil hati ya. Tapi pandangan bapak itu salah. Bangsa Indoesia juga pernah ada Partai Komunis seperti Malaysia. Malahan lebih parah lagi. Semua bangsa Indonesia tahu apa itu Komunis dan apa maunya pak. Itu makanya bangsa Indonesia pengkhianat komunis tiada ampunnya lagi. Malahan Pak Sukarno yang agung menentang Belanda itu langsung saja tumbang kerana kebergantungannya pada Komunis. Jika di Malaysia ada Mat Indera yang picisan itu, di Indonesia kami ada Dipa Nusantara yang tinggi tingkatnya. Itupun langsung dibunuh saja. Tidak ada siapa di Indonesia bakal menyanjung Dipa sebagai perwira Indonesia".

Cerita ayah saya ini sebenarnya kebetulan sekali mengingatkan saya kepada email yang saya terima daripada seorang rakan warga Pakistan yang juga merupakan bekas ahli kumpulan "Pemerhati". Di dalam emailnya itu, beliau sebenarnya mengejek (walaupun secara gaya bahasa tidak langsung) kebodohan sekumpulan Melayu di negara ini yang melakukan sesuatu yang tidak pernah berlaku di mana-mana negara Islam lain di Dunia - iaitu mengiktiraf komunis sebagai pejuang negara.

Jika penyokong PAS/PKR membaca buku Sejarah, mereka patut boleh melihat persamaan pergerakan Komunis di Malaysia dan Indonesia. Contohnya, Partai Komunis Indonesia ("PKI") dan Parti Komunis Malaya ("PKM") ditubuhkan atas arahan Communist International atau Comintern yang dipengaruhi oleh Rusia. Keduanya menggunakan alasan yang sama sebagai alasan penubuhan iaitu perjuangan menentang Penjajah. Malahan jika benarlah komunis melayu itu patut disanjung, maka Melayu Indonesia berhak melakukannya terlebih dahulu kerana berbeza dengan Malaysia, PKI di Indonesia adalah didominasi oleh orang melayu islam malahan Ketua Umum Pertama PKI juga adalah seorang melayu iaitu Semaun Prawiroatmodjo. Lebih hebat lagi, Semaun ini merupakan ahli kumpulan Sarekat Islam.

Anda tentu tidak percaya jika diberitahu bahawa PKI Indonesia merupakan serpihan daripada Sarekat Islam, bukan? Tapi itulah hakikat lucunya. Parti yang akhirnya banyak merusak keamanaan bangsa Indoesia itu adalah berasal dari Sarekat Islam.

Jadi PKI itu adalah pergerakan orang melayu indonesia.. beragama Islam lagi. Jadi kenapa Komunis Indonesia yang majoriti anggotanya melayu islam itu (berbeza dengan PKM yang didominasi cina) akhirnya dibenci bangsa Indonesia?

Jawapannya mudah. Kerana jalan komunis yang dilaksanakan PKI itu keterlaluan jahat. Dalam siri pembunuhan yang dilakukan oleh PKI sekitar tahun 1948, PKI yang dipimpin melayu Indonesia bernama Muso Manowar melaksanakan Modus operandi mendatangi rumah-rumah penduduk dan memaksa setiap laki-laki dan perempuan yang berusia 15 tahun ke atas menjadi anggota PKI dengan yuran Rp 0,10. Sesiapa yang menolak maka kelak dibunuh. Sudah tentu yang paling menolak itu adalah para kiai dan murid-murid sekolah agama. Akibatnya mereka juga dibunuh. Malahan sungai-sungai di Madiun menjadi merah oleh karena darah para kiai dan santri yang dibunuh itu. Peristiwa pembunuhan tokoh ugama ini diingat oleh bangsa Indonesia sebagai Peristiwa Madium.

Aksi berikutnya pada tanggal 13 Januari 1965 sekitar pukul 04.30 subuh, lebih kurang 3,000 anggota PKI yang dipimpin Ketua pengurus cabang Pemuda Rakyat (PR) Daerah Kediri, Soerjadi, mengadakan teror dengan melakukan penyerbuan di desa Kanigoro, Kediri, Jawa Timur. Pada ketika itu ada sekitar 100 orang PII (Pelajar Islam Indonesia) dari seluruh daerah di Jawa Timur yang sedang mengikuti rapat bersama di Masjid At Taqwa selesai salat subuh. Tiba-tiba datang segerombolan orang berpakaian hitam-hitam menyerang mereka. Mereka melakukan pemukulan dan penganiayaan terhadap para kiai dan imam masjid sehingga korba jatuh serta merusak rumah ibadah, bahkan menginjak-injak Kitab Suci Al Quran.

Mereka berteriak “Ganyang santri!”, “Ganyang Masjumi!”, “Ganyang Sorban!”, “Ganyang kapitalis!”, “Ganyang Kontra Revolusi!”, “Dulu waktu peristiwa Madiun besar kepala, kini rasakan pembalasan!”.

Berdasarkan sejarah PKI di Indonesia, dapatlah disimpulkan di sini bahawa orang melayu Islam pun boleh menjadi gelap mata apabila sudah dibutakan hatinya oleh pergerakan komunis di masa itu. Di Indonesia pergerakan komunis bukannya didukung oleh orang cina, sebaliknya kesemua pemimpin PKI yang menjadi dalang dalam kekejaman adalah orang melayu. Oleh itu tidak hairanlah Mat Indera yang dikatakan hafiz Quran itu pun tergamak membiarkan rakan-rakan komunisnya membunuh wanita melayu dan anaknya yang berumur empat tahun semasa serangan di Bukit Kepong.

Walaupun sejarah Indonesia masih mengakui peranan awal PKI yang didukung oleh bangsa melayu dalam penentangan terhadap Belanda, namun bangsa Indonesia sama sekali tidak akan sanggup mengiktiraf melayu-melayu komunis ini sebagai pahlawan. Begitu bencinya mereka pada komunis sehinggakan pada tahun 2001, ribuan penduduk Kaloran, Temanggung, Jawa Tengah bertindak menghalang usaha menguburkan tulang belulang anggota PKI yang dibantai pada 1965. Mereka enggan membenarkan tulang belulang anggota PKI itu dikuburkan di daerah mereka kerana dendam mereka kepada komunis.

Pembantaian 1965 berlaku selepas PKI membunuh 6 jenderal Indonesia dalam cubaan untuk melakukan rampasan kuasa. Pihak tentera yang diketuai oleh Jeneral Suharto segera membalas dengan menangkap dan membunuh anggota-anggota PKI. Akibat oleh dendam kepada PKI terutamanya pembunuhan ahli-ahli agama oleh PKI pada di desa Kanigoro, Kediri, Jawa Timur, rakyat biasa turut turun tangan membantai kesemua anggota PKI.

Kelompok-kelompok pemuda dari organisasi-organisasi muslim barisan Ansor NU dan Tameng Marhaenis PNI membalas dendam di Jawa Tengah dan Jawa Timur sehinggakan Sungai Brantas di dekat Surabaya menjadi penuh mayat-mayat anggota PKI sampai di tempat-tempat tertentu sungai itu "terbendung mayat". Di pulau Bali, yang sebelum itu dianggap sebagai kubu PKI, paling sedikit 35,000 PKI menjadi korban di permulaan 1966.

Di Kediri yang mana sebelum itu dibantai oleh PKI dalam peristiwa 13 Januari, warga masyarakat Kediri melakukan serangan balik dengan memburu para pengikut PKI. Desa Kanigoro dijadikan ajang pembantaian orang-orang PKI, dan mayat mereka dimasukkan ke dalam sebuah tanah galian besar yang saat ini dikenal oleh warga masyarakat sekitar dengan sebutan Makam Parik.

Jika kita lihat apa yang berlaku di Indonesia, ternyata bahawa kebinasaan yang berlaku akibat kewujudan pergerakan komunis adalah adalah sangat dekat sekali dengan sejarah negara kita. Darurat Tanah Melayu berlaku bermula pada 1948 iaitu tahun yang sama komunis di Indonesia membunuh orang awam dan ahli agama dalam tragedi Madium. Dua tahun selepas pembunuhan di Madium, komunis di Malaya pula menyerang dan membunuh anggota polis dan keluarga mereka di Bukit Kepong. Namun kita di Malaysia masih bernasib baik kerana berkat jasa anggota keselamatan kita, darurat akhirnya tamat pada 1960. Indonesia tidak mempunyai nasib sebaik kita. Pembunuhan massal oleh Komunis masih lagi berterusan sehingga 1965 disusuli oleh rusuhan dan pembunuhan balas dendam ke atas Komunis pada 1965 dan 1966.

Jadi kenapa masih ada di Malaysia yang tidak bersyukur dengan nasib kita yang sebegitu baik? Tidak kah kita menyedari bahawa sekiranya Allah mengizinkan, maka boleh saja DIA menterbalikkan nasib antara Malaysia dan Indonesia pada waktu itu? Dan tidakkah PAS terfikir bahawa jika saja apa yang berlaku kepada ahli agama di Madium, Indonesia pada 1948 itu berlaku di Tanah Melayu, maka yang menjadi mangsa pembantaian komunis sudah tentulah kesemua ahli-ahli parti PAS sendiri?

Di Indonesia, anggota PKI yang sudah tinggal tulang pun masih tidak dibenarkan dikubur oleh penduduk. Di Malaysia pula anggota PKM yang membunuh orang melayu lelaki dan wanita pula hendak dijulang sebagai perwira negara.

Secara kebetulan pula beberapa malam yang lepas saya menerima email daripada sahabat lama dari Pakistan (juga anggota Watchers). Beliau juga berminat dengan isu ini selepas mendapat khabar angin daripada saudara beliau yang kini berkerja di Malaysia. Apatah lagi beliau mempunyai banyak keluarga di sebelah ayah beliau yang menjadi mujahidin di Afghanistan menentang komunis Rusia, maka sudah tentu beliau musykil kenapa ada orang beragama Islam yang sanggup memuja Komunis.

Dan itulah sebabnya mengapa saya malu hendak menulis dalam bahasa Inggeris kali ini. Tidak sanggup rasanya hendak berkongsi artikel ini dengan rakan-rakan daripada kumpulan Watchers yang sering berkunjung melawat blog ini. Perangai kebanyakan melayu pembangkang yang kini cuba memartabatkan pejuang komunis adalah sangat sangat sangat memalukan.

Malu .. Malu .. Malu .. Malu .. Maluuuuuuuuuuunya...

Terus terang sahabat saya itu mengatakan bahawa sekiranya Mat Sabu atau penyokong-penyokongnya cuba memainkan isu ini di Afghanistan atau Chechnya, maka sudah kepala mereka sudah dipenggal. Malahan tidak keterlaluan jika akan wujud pula seruan jihad membenteras kesemua penyokong PAS/PKR/DAP.

Tiada guna PAS dan PKR cuba memusing peranan Mat Indera dalam Komunis kerana orang-orang Afghan dan Chechnya juga pernah menghadapi 'Mat Indera' mereka sendiri semasa perang Afghanistan dan perang Chechen. Inilah barua-barua yang membelot kononnya demi kepentingan Negara namun akhirnya mati dimaki bangsa sendiri.

Di Chechnya wujud manusia seperti Haji Akhmad Kadyrov, bekas Ketua Mufti Chechnya yang kemudian menyebelahi Russia dalam Perang Chechen Ke-2 sebelum diangkat oleh Rusia sebagai Presiden Chechnya. Terdapat hujah dari sesetenngah pihak yang mengatakan bahawa beliau berpaling tadah bagi menyelamatkan Chechnya daripada serangan Russia, namun hujah sebegini tidak diterima oleh bangsa Chechnya yang menganggap beliau pembelot. Beliau akhirnya dibunuh oleh pejuang Chechen melalui letupan bom pada 09 Mei 2004 (Anaknya Ramzan yang juga menyokong Rusia dan dijadikan Presiden pada 2007 juga dianggap pembelot).

Di Afghanistan pula terdapat Bekas Perdana Menteri Hazifullah Amin yang menjemput tentera Russia masuk ke Afghanistan demi mengukuhkan kedudukan Kerajaan. Amin kemudiannya dibunuh oleh Russia dan tempatnya diganti oleh seorang lagi pembelot bangsa Afghan iaitu Babrak Kamal. Tidak kira apa cerita yang direka oleh Russia bagi menggambarkan Amin dan Babrak sebagai nasionalis yang ingin meliberalkan Afghanistan, hakikatnya bangsa Afghan tetap memandang boneka-boneka Komunis ini sebagai pembelot.

Saya sekarang berdoa siang malam agar isu sokongan segelintir orang melayu kepada perjuangan komunis ini tidak disebarkan ke media antarabangsa. Sekiranya perkara ini bocor kepada negara-negara Islam seperti Afghanistan dan Chechnya, maka malu yang bakal terpalit kepada orang melayu Islam di negara ini tidak dapat dibayangkan lagi. Kita akan menjadi bahan ejekan umat Islam di seluruh dunia dari Indonesia ke Arab Saudi. Malahan tidak mustahil umat Islam di negara ini akan dijadikan iktibar tentang kebodohan umat Islam di akhir zaman yang terhegeh-hegeh menyanjung Musuh Islam.
