From the extermination of Native Americans to Israel's genocide in Gaza

Jan 13, 2025 | malaysianow.com | Mahathir Mohamad

In the context of Hamas’s uprising against Israel, the international community had ignored history and twisted it so much so that every discussion about the conflict centred or seems to start on Oct 7, 2023. It is far from the truth. Indeed, Hamas’s conflict with Israel is an uprising and not a terror attack as being depicted by the international or rather the pro-Israel Western nations.

Nov 26, 2024 | bebasnews.my | Mahathir Mohamad

By Dr. Mahathir MohamadI AM mystified. 2. I believe that wrongdoers should be tried by a court and sentenced to jail, fine or caned. 3. What I notice now is punishment for alleged wrongdoing being meted out by investigators. 4. Investigators now seem to make their own judgment and carrying out punishment. 5. People, organisations have their funds frozen, their businesses closed, their books seized and they or the owners of organisations are detained in lockups. 6.

If they pay tax on their stolen income, do they get to keep the balance after taxes. 8. Do the income tax people report to MACC about the stolen income. 9. Do they report to the police.

Pious resolutions would be made. 4. But the aggressor nation would ignore the UN and go on killing. 5. This is the brave New World that hundreds of millions of young people died for. DR.
Forgotten war - BebasNews

Oct 9, 2024 | bebasnews.my | Mahathir Mohamad

By Dr Mahathir MohamadA MR MARK CURTIS wrote an article about the “forgotten” war in Malaya. (https://ehm.my/publications/articles/malaya%E2%80%94britains-forgotten-war-for-rubber)2.

During colonial days Britain brought Indians and Chinese to Malaya. Britain was surprised when these people rose against the Raj. 4.
Peace of the graveyard

Oct 2, 2024 | bebasnews.my | Mahathir Mohamad

By Dr Mahathir Mohamad1. The Prime Minister has advised the people not to disturb the peace and stability of the country. 2. It is good advise. But the stability of the country is because people are not allowed to speak. You cannot speak on the 3R. You cannot say anything against the Government. Even if you suffer the pain of governmental oppression, you must not complain. 3. The 3R suppresses ordinary people.
