And that, too, is how Muslims — meaning Malays — in Malaysia need to be divided and conquered. Make them place other interests above Islam. Make them focus on nationalism and party interests (like the Ottomans in 1918). Make them believe in liberalism and secularism. Muslims can then be defeated and conquered, like in Turkey in 1918, and Malaysia in 2018.

The Muslims took the wrong side and got destroyed at the end of WWI
Today, Sunday, 11th November 2018, is the 100th Anniversary of Armistice Day. Even as you read this, millions of British all over Britain are marching on the streets to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of when the guns fell silent in what was called The Great War (before WWII happened, after which ‘The Great War’ was changed to WWI).
What many Muslims may not realise is today is also the 100th anniversary of the end of the Ottoman Empire when Islam ruled all the way from Mediterranean Europe to South East Asia. This was the beginning of the end for the more than 1,000-year Golden Age of Islam that ended when the Ottoman Sultan made the grave decision of supporting the losing side in WWI.
The 100th Anniversary of Armistice Day and the beginning of the end of the Islamic Empire
The collapse of the Ottoman Empire was because the European colonialists managed to turn Muslim against Muslim in the name of nationalism. The Ummah was replaced with Arab, Persian, Turkish, African, etc., nationalism and this disunity managed to bring down a once very powerful empire that ruled longer than the Persian, Greek, Roman, British, etc., empires.
Muslims have always been at war with one another long before they became Muslims 1,400 years ago. Prophet Muhammad, however, managed to unite the many warring tribes under the umbrella of Islam. When Islam replaced parochialism, nationalism, and so on, the Islamic Empire prospered. When parochialism, nationalism, and so on, replaced Islam, the Islamic Empire died.
Muslims, meaning Malays, will always be divided and will fight one another as long as you do not allow them to unite under Islam
Fighting one another is in the Muslim DNA, which is why Malays love fighting one another. But when Islam overrides all other interests, the Muslims unite. Hence, to divide the Muslims, and subsequently conquer them, you need to divide them by getting them to place other interests above Islam.
And that, too, is how Muslims — meaning Malays — in Malaysia need to be divided and conquered. Make them place other interests above Islam. Make them focus on nationalism and party interests (like the Ottomans in 1918). Make them believe in liberalism and secularism. Muslims can then be defeated and conquered, like in Turkey in 1918, and Malaysia in 2018.
