JAHAT, THIS JIHAD.

I am RELIABLY INFORMED that jihad is a serious pronouncement. But I have not been reliably informed if a woman can throw jihad at a man or vice versa. That would be unwomanly and ungentlemanly conduct.

On a more serious note: This jihad thing. Is it affecting DSAI such that he is so silent about his delinquent Kulim MP, Zulkifli Noordin who told the protesters last Saturday morning:

“If you don’t hear from us at 10am, you should all storm the building,” he said, before he led a four-member delegation representing the protesters to state their position to the forum organisers.

Just a few days before Anwar had declared in a mid-morning Press Conference:

"The use of police powers as well the office of the Attorney General to persecute political opponents will be criminalized so as to ensure a healthy and vibrant democracy where dissent is not only tolerated but nurtured. "

Can these utterings be to borrow Willie Shakespear immortal words: ALL SOUND AND FURY SIGNIFYING NOTHING?

We expect the PM-in-waiting to say something about this faux pas. All we hear is NOTHING!

Elie Wiesel, an eminent Romanian journalist-turned-politician said:

I swore never to be silent whenever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented,"

We wait with bated breath unless Anwar is too embroiled with Sharizat over this:
