Has Umno undergone a sex change that it willingly absorbs the humiliation meted by Perkasa's Ibrahim Ali, as if it enjoys receiving pain and getting sexually aroused?
It’s puzzling why the police have not acted against Perkasa’s Ibrahim Ali for his incendiary and seditious remarks.
It is also puzzling how he got a permit to hold such an aggressive Perkasa rally so quickly from the authorities.
Yet the same authorities are showing their lead-weighted feet in issuing a valid permit to the organizers of the July 9 Bersih “Walk For Democracy” whose intention is to demand that our Election Commission (EC) conduct its business professionally.
That means Bersih wants the EC to ensure elections are fair and transparent.
Whilst the Bersih rally has drawn some xenophobic response from various groups, none however has been as “exceedingly intolerant” as the one shown by Perkasa.
My question is this. Is Ibrahim Ali more Umno than Umno? If so what has the real Umno become?
Has Umno undergone a sex change that it stands ball-less and idle even as Ibrahim Ali continues to humiliate and belittle Umno every moment he gets?
Umno is absorbing this punishment willingly and enjoying receiving pain from getting sexually-aroused so much so that it can dismiss him saying “Ibrahim Ali is harmless and he speaks for the unspeaking Malay.”
But Ibrahim Ali is not ‘harmless’. He is telling the world that he will mobilize a large number of people to confront Bersih’s rally.
He’s even talking about a physical confrontation and is ready to shed blood.
Barefaced threats
In his self-induced state of hysteria, he has warned the Chinese community not to get involved, raising the specter of the racial clashes of May 13, 1969.
This barefaced threats to the Chinese community, Ibrahim Ali’s hysteria and Umno’s acquiescence will cause a desertion of Chinese votes.
Ibrahim Ali has succeeded where others have failed – to hasten the flight of Chinese votes away from Barisan Nasional.
Of course Malay ultras can insist they don’t need Chinese votes to win elections. But then they also forget, Umno can’t get the majority of Malay votes.
Let’s see whether Malay support can be re-taken by allowing Ibrahim Ali to speak brazenly about a re-minted Malay triumphalism.
Ibrahim Ali is a bloody hypocrite.
His entire business ventures are done with the Chinese whose blood he is after and the commission of bodily harm he is advocating.
His bridge projects were completed and done with Chinese and Chinese money.
He was off to Macau last week to meet up with Chinese cukongs.
Impotent government
By keeping quiet and allowing Ibrahim to speak as it were as Umno’s voice, we are showing clearly Umno has a death wish.
Why are we allowing Ibrahim Ali to represent the rational and collected Malay voice. Have we lost our marbles?
Ibrahim Ali is not an Umno member and he isn’t a liability to Umno.
It is of no consequence to Umno if he is detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) and dealt with properly by the laws of Malaysia.
If the government doesn’t act against Ibrahim Ali, then it cannot but be seen as impotent.
