    Mohamed Nazem Suki: We Are All Muslims, Don’t Label Each Other

    When a government preferred with either group/s, the divisions and problems will deepens.

    The irony is, the group/s, whom any governments preferred, will conduct their actions uncompromising towards another ‘opposing’ group/s. These group/s sold their principle and brotherhood and are proud of it. Cheap isn’t it?

    When any government ministers/officials, past or current, seen to be present supporting one group than the other, by default those group/s are legitimate while the others are extremist, assumed ‘terrorist’. Who determine? Some smart deans and professors make reference to opposing groups? Smile all your way, write long thesis to justify your theories, while you sit in, and you didn’t even touch those brotherhood sufferings in the hands of those ‘terror’ governments.

    Civil and nation wars are inevitable when governments have preference for its survival. People lives are no more sacred. Aren’t these governments more extreme forceful terrorist than those other groups?

    These governments are NOT a reference point. We, Muslims, can’t and don’t and shouldn’t look at any government policies and then work backwards in order to fit into these governments’ system.

    We, Muslims, have our reference and the system/s, we have the ‘just and humanist’ solutions ourselves. Sell it, campaign it, convince them, educate them, create the awareness, etc etc, not just any reaction denouncing allegations of terrorism acts all over. We can also in reaction denounced any acts by any governments which does not fulfilled our principle and obligations. We have diplomatic experts and scholars’ channels, talk it out.

    We, Muslims, are NOT terrorists !

  • Tak Mahu Membayar Untuk Bagasi Berlebihan, Jemaah Indonesia “Hamil” Pakaian

    Tak Mahu Membayar Untuk Bagasi Berlebihan, Jemaah Indonesia “Hamil” Pakaian

    INDONESIA: Gara-gara mahu membawa banyak barangan pulang ke tanah air namun mahu mengelak daripada bagasi ditimbang dengan berat yang berlebihan, sepasang suami isteri jemaah haji Indonesia ini nekad menyembunyikan kain baju di bahagian perut.

    Cik Fitri dan suaminya, mengikat kain baju tersebut di bahagian perut dan kemudian mereka memakai pakaian yang longgar semata-mata untuk mengelak daripada bagasi mereka ditimbang dengan berat yang berlebihan.

    Hasilnya, pasangan itu kelihatan seperti orang yang hamil.

    MAHU BAWA SEMUA YANG DIBELI PULANG KE TANAH AIR

    Apabila ditanya, Cik Fitri hanya tersipu malu sambil berkata: “Ini bukan hamil, tetapi isinya baju.”

    Cik Fitri yang enggan gambarnya dipetik menambah, beliau sengaja mengubah-suai supaya barang-barang yang dibeli semuanya boleh dibawa pulang ke Indonesia.

    “Saya cuba sahaja dan diberitahu oleh teman-teman,” tambah beliau.

    Yang lucunya, perut suami Cik Fitri, yang agak pendiam, juga kelihatan seperti orang hamil namun beliau seperti acuh tidak acuh meskipun menjadi perhatian ramai.

    Agak kelam-kabut juga apabila Cik Fitri hendak ke tandas dalam keadaan “hamil”.

    PERUT KEMBALI KEMPIS

    Namun begitu, Cik Fitri sempat bergurau sambil memperlihatkan bahagian perut beliau yang sudah kembali kempis kerana kain baju yang disembunyikan itu sudah dilepaskan.

    “Ini, saya sudah tidak hamil lagi,” gurau Cik Fitri sambil bergegas ke tandas.

    Jemaah haji Indonesia sebenarnya diberikan dua bagasi tangan untuk mengisi barangan peribadi serta yang dibeli.

    Satu bagasi boleh diisikan dengan barangan seberat 32 kilogram, manakala beg yang lebih kecil pula boleh diisi maksimum tujuh kilogram.

    Sekiranya Cik Fitri serta suami mengisi bagasi-bagasi tersebut sehingga berat maksimun, bermakna mereka membawa pulang barangan seberat 78 kilogram, mencukupi untuk membawa oleh-oleh buat keluarga di rumah.

  • US-Led Forces Strike Syrian Troops, Russia Calls Emergency UN Meeting

    US-Led Forces Strike Syrian Troops, Russia Calls Emergency UN Meeting

    US-led coalition air strikes killed dozens of Syrian soldiers on Saturday (Sept 17), Russia and a monitoring group said, putting a US-Russian brokered ceasefire in jeopardy and prompting Moscow to seek an emergency UN Security Council meeting.

    The United States military said the coalition stopped the air strike against what it had believed to be Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS)  positions in north-east Syria after Russia informed it that Syrian military personnel and vehicles may have been hit.

    A US military official said he was “pretty sure” targets mistakenly hit in the coalition strikes were Syrian forces.

    Russia called for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council after the air strikes, which allowed ISIS militants to briefly overrun a Syrian army position near Deir al-Zor airport.

    The 15-member body is due to meet behind closed doors at 7.30pm EDT (7.30am on Sunday, Singapore time), diplomats said.

    “We are reaching a really terrifying conclusion for the whole world: That the White House is defending Islamic State. Now there can be no doubts about that,” the RIA Novosti news agency quoted Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova as saying.

    She said the strikes threatened to undermine the ceasefire in Syria brokered by Russia, which has been aiding Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad in the civil war, and the United States, which has backed some rebel groups.

    The Russian Defence Ministry said US jets had killed more than 60 Syrian soldiers in four air strikes by two F-16s and two A-10s coming from the direction of Iraq.

    The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based monitoring group with contacts across the country, cited a military source at Deir al-Zor airport as saying that at least 80 Syrian soldiers had been killed.

    The ceasefire, which took effect on Monday, is the most significant peacemaking effort in Syria for months but has been undermined by repeated accusations of violations on both sides and by a failure to bring humanitarian aid to besieged areas.

    As well as the US and Russian involvement, Assad is supported by Iran and Arab Shi’ite militias, while Sunni rebels seeking to unseat him are backed by Turkey and Gulf Arab states.

    All those warring parties are also sworn enemies of ISIS, whose territory extends along the Euphrates valley from the Iraqi border, including around Deir al-Zor, up to land near Syria’s frontier with Turkey.

    In its sixth year, the conflict has cost hundreds of thousands of lives, displaced half of Syria’s pre-war population, prompted a refugee crisis in the Middle East and Europe and inspired a wave of  Islamic militant attacks across the world.

    Syria’s army said the strikes, which took place at around 5pm (10pm Singapore time) were “conclusive evidence” of US support for ISIS, calling them “dangerous and blatant aggression”.

    The US military said in its statement that Syria was a “complex situation” but that “coalition forces would not intentionally strike a known Syrian military unit”.

    ISIS said via its Amaq news channel it had taken complete control of Jebel Tharda, where the bombed position was located, which would have allowed it to overlook government-held areas of Deir al-Zor.

    The city’s airport and some districts have been entirely surrounded by ISIS since last year, with the airport providing their only external access.

    However, Russia and Syrian state media said the Syrian army later recaptured positions it lost. The Observatory monitoring group said at least 20 ISIS fighters were killed in heavy Russian air strikes during that fighting.

    The incident threatens to undermine not only the ceasefire agreement, but also proposed joint targeting by the United States and Russia of ISIS and some other jihadist groups across Syria.

    SHAKY TRUCE

    Earlier on Saturday, Russia and Syrian rebels cast doubt over the prospects for the increasingly shaky ceasefire, with Moscow saying the situation was worsening and a senior insurgent warning that the truce “will not hold out”.

    While the ceasefire has reduced fighting, some violence has persisted across Syria. Meanwhile, there has been little movement on promised aid deliveries to besieged areas and both sides have accused the other of bad faith.

    Russia’s Defence Ministry said conditions in Syria were deteriorating, adding that it believed the ceasefire had been breached 199 times by rebels and saying the United States would be responsible if it were to collapse.

    After the Deir al-Zor air strike, it said Moscow had told the United States to rein in the Syrian opposition and make sure it did not launch a new offensive, adding that it had told Washington about a concentration of rebels north of Hama.

    Insurgents say they only reluctantly accepted the initial deal, which they believe is skewed against them, because it could relieve the dire humanitarian situation in besieged areas they control, and blamed Russia for undermining the truce.

    “The truce, as we have warned, and we told the (US) State Department – will not hold out,” a senior rebel official in Aleppo said, pointing to the continued presence of a UN aid convoy at the Turkish border awaiting permission to enter.

    Rebels have also accused Russia of using the ceasefire to give the Syrian army and allied Shi’ite militias a chance to regroup and deploy forces ready for their own offensives.

    OVERNIGHT SHELLING

    Both sides have accused the other of being responsible for aid deliveries being stuck far from Aleppo, where army and rebel forces were supposed to pull back from the Castello Road which leads into besieged, insurgent-held eastern districts.

    Russia on Friday said the Syrian army had initially withdrawn but returned to its positions after being fired on by rebels, who in turn say they saw no sign of government forces ever leaving their positions. “There is no change,” said Zakariya Malahifji, an official for a rebel group in Aleppo on Saturday, asked whether there had been any move by the army to withdraw from positions along the road.

    Syria’s government said it was doing all that was necessary for the arrival of aid to those in need it in all parts of the country, particularly to eastern Aleppo.

    Two convoys of aid for Aleppo have been waiting at the Turkish border for days. The UN has said both sides in the war are to blame for the delay of aid to Aleppo, where neither has yet withdrawn from the Castello Road into the city.

    The government said the road was being fired on by rebels, which they deny, so it could not give convoys a guarantee of safety.

    Senior UN officials have accused the government of not providing letters to allow convoys to reach other besieged areas in Syria.

  • Anak 2 Tahun Maut Dilanggar: “Saya Dengar Bunyi Tulang Anak Saya (Patah)”

    Anak 2 Tahun Maut Dilanggar: “Saya Dengar Bunyi Tulang Anak Saya (Patah)”

    Hancur luluhnya hati seorang ibu apabila orang yang menyebabkan kematian anaknya dilepaskan daripada hukuman penjara.

    Fahima Hassan yang berusia dua tahun, sedang berjalan dipimpin ibunya apabila dilanggar oleh sebuah kereta yang dipandu oleh Hoden Aden, 44 tahun, seorang ibu kepada tujuh orang anak, menurut Daily Mail.

    Mahkamah mendengar bahawa Hoden sedang bercakap di telefon sambil mencari tempat meletak kereta, memandu pada kelajuan lapan kilometer sejam.

    Namun, penglihatannya terhadang oleh sekotak tisu di bahagian depan keretanya dan tidak menyedari dia sudah melanggar seorang kanak-kanak.

    Yang paling mengejutkan, menurut laman Daily Mail, Hoden mempercayai bahwa dia terlanggar troli dan terus menerus melanggar kanak-kanak berkenaan untuk beberapa ketika.

    Pada awalnya, Hoden tidak mengaku bersalah menyebabkan kematian dengan memandu secara cuai namun didapati bersalah pada bulan lalu menyusuli perbicaraan selama empat hari.

    Kini, Hoden dijatuhi hukuman penjara 14 bulan, namun ia digantung selama dua tahun setelah mahkamah mendengar bahawa dia tidak sihat dan perlu menjaga ibunya yang sedang sakit.

    Ibu Fahima, Narmin Nur yang tidak dapat menahan perasaan semasa hukuman itu dijatuhkan berlari keluar dari mahkamah, lapor Daily Mail.

    Beliau yang berusia 31 tahun itu berkata: “Kami tidak gembira dengan hukuman itu.

    Bagaimana ini yang dipanggil keadilan? Kami amat bersedih.

    “Bagaimana seseorang boleh membunuh seorang kanak-kanak namun masih boleh keluar seperti biasa? Saya tidak boleh mempercayainya. Saya tahu tiada hukuman yang boleh membawa kembali Yaya (nama timangan Fahima), namun kami ingatkan dia mungkin dipenjara untuk beberapa tahun.

    “Semasa dia memandu saya boleh mendengar bunyi tulang-belulang anak saya. Saya tahu dia tidak sengaja membunuh anak saya, namun dia tidak pernah berkata apa-apa kepada saya,” tambah Cik Narmin.

    Sebelum kemalangan itu, Fahima bersama ibunya baru sahaja meninggalkan pusat beli-belah Asda pada bulan September 2014 apabila Hoden melanggar Fahima dengan kereta Volkswagen Tguan sekitar pukul 8.20 malam (waktu London).
