You do not know what joy and ecstasy is like until you are freed from the yolk of ISIS

Ecstatic Syrian civilians have been shaving off their beards, burning their burqas, smoking and dancing in the streets after being freed from Isis.
The jubilant celebrations were seen in the Syrian city of Manbij on Friday, where militants have been driven out after months of fighting by US-backed rebel groups.
Families ran through rubble-strewn streets, past the ruins of buildings destroyed in air strikes, carrying their babies and belongings.

Uh oh, this is not good, not good at all.

FINALLY: US NAVY DEPLOYS STRIKE GROUP TO SOUTH CHINA SEA TO CONFRONT CHINA

The United States Navy has deployed a naval fleet equipped with most advanced weapons in South China Sea in what is considered a show of force as tensions rise over China's construction of artificial lands  and militarization of the area.

Quoting US military officials, the Navy Times reported that the aircraft carrier, John C Stennis; the destroyers, Chung-Hoon and Stockdale; cruisers Antietam and Mobile Bay along with the Blue Ridge, command ship of the Japan-based 7th fleet, set off recently for the South China Sea, where Beijing has installed surface-to-air missiles and built an airstrip on reclaimed area.

By the way, Malaysia has also lay claim to these islands.  Why the deafening silence?

Turkey army group announces takeover on TV. Does this signal the return to secularism?

An army group in Turkey says it has taken over the country, with soldiers at strategic points in Istanbul and jets flying low in the capital, Ankara.

A statement read on TV said a "peace council" now ran the country and there was a curfew and martial law.

It is unclear who the group is or its level of support. Some top army officials are said to be detained.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he would overcome what he called an uprising by a minority.
He told CNN Turk by mobile phone the action was by a "parallel structure" that would bring the necessary response. He has used this term in the past to refer to Fethullah Gulen, a US-based Muslim cleric he accuses of fomenting unrest.

Mr Erdogan called on people to take to the streets to oppose the uprising.

He said: "I urge the Turkish people to convene at public squares and airports. I never believed in a power higher than the power of the people."

Mr Erdogan said he was on his way to Ankara and those involved in the action would pay a heavy price. His office said he was in a secure location.

They know that the BN, especially UMNO, is waiting for every excuse to crucify them. Why do they keep on making the same mistake over and over again. Are they that stupid or what?

PETALING JAYA: DAP’s “Superman” Hew Kuan Yau has been slammed by netizens for a Facebook post he wrote about China’s claims to the South China Sea.
“南海是中國的!不要因為反共而反華 (The South China Sea belongs to China! Don’t oppose China just because you are anti-communist),” Hew wrote today in a terse Facebook post.
He was immediately castigated by Facebook users who disputed China’s “historical claim” to the economic rights of large swaths of the region.
“You are mad! No such thing as historical claim,” netizen Kok Shin Shan commented.
“You may hate BN but don’t disown your country’s sovereign right! I hope this is NOT DAP’s stand as far as SCS disputes are concerned.”
Netizen Alexandra Wales explained the matter for Hew’s benefit, saying that China’s claim to the South China Sea went against Malaysia’s ownership of part of the area and exclusive economic zone.

NEW YEAR MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT OF CHINA, XI JINPING.


Comrades, friends, ladies and gentlemen,
In a few hours’ time, the bell of the New Year will be ringing. We’ll say goodbye to the year of 2015 and greet the first ray of sun light from 2016. At this occasion of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new, I would like to express my best New Year wishes to Chinese people from all ethnic groups, to our compatriots from Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions, to our compatriots from Taiwan region and overseas, as well as to friends from all countries and regions around the world!

Fruitful gains come with persistent efforts. In the year of 2015, Chinese people have made great efforts in building their nation and have achieved enormously. Our economic growth remained at the forefront of the world, our reforms intensified comprehensively, the reforms on judicial system deepened, the “three stricts” and “three steadies” carried out in earnest, and the fight against corruption advanced solidly. Thanks to the great efforts of all Chinese people, the 12th 5-year plan from 2010 to 2015 successfully came to an end, which made the people in this country feel a heightened sense of gains.

In the year of 2015, we solemnly commemorated the 70th anniversary of the victory of Chinese people’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, with a grand military-parade, showing the truth that justice will prevail, peace will prevail, and people will prevail. We comprehensively implemented the strategy of reforming and strengthening the army, and decided to cut military personnel by 300-thousand. The meeting between myself and Mr. Ma Ying-jeou in Singapore made the handshake between the top leaders of the mainland and Taiwan a reality after a lapse of 66 years. The handshake demonstrated that the peaceful development of cross-straits relationship is the common aspiration of the people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.
In the year of 2015, Beijing won the bid for hosting the 24th Winter Olympic Games, Chinese currency Renminbi was approved by the IMF to be a global reserve currency in the Special Drawing Right basket, our self-developed C919 jetliner was put on production line, China’s super computer claimed top position for the 6th consecutive year, which is a world record, the satellite exploring dark matter, developed by our scientists, was launched into space successfully, Tu Youyou became our first Chinese scientist winning a Nobel Prize … All those facts have illustrated that dreams will eventually come true with determined perseverance.

In the year of 2015, we’ve not only experienced cheerful occasions but have also gone through sorrows. Many of our compatriots lost their lives in tragic incidents like the “Eastern Star” cruise ship wreck, the serious fire and blast in the port of Tianjin, and in the landslide in Shenzhen. Some of our compatriots were also brutally murdered by terrorists. Our hearts were broken by those tragedies. May the deceased rest in peace and the living remain safe and sound! There are still many difficulties and hardships in people’s daily lives. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese government will continue the efforts to ensure that the safety of people’s lives and properties are protected, and people’s rights to improved livelihood and physical health are guaranteed.

Comrades, friends, ladies and gentlemen;
2016 marks the beginning of the decisive phase in the national effort to build China into a comprehensive moderately prosperous society. The fifth plenum of the 18th Congress of the Communist Party of China has identified clearly the direction of development over the next five years. The prospects are encouraging. However, happiness will not just fall from heaven, we must empower ourselves with strong faith and confidence, continue to work hard, to seek innovative, coordinated and green development that is also open and shared by all. We will further advance structural reforms, continue the reform and opening up process, promote social fairness and justice, build a clean and healthy political environment, and lay a solid foundation for the decisive stage in building China into a moderately prosperous society.

To build China into a comprehensive moderately prosperous society, we need the effort of all the 1.3 billion people in this country. It remains a moral and emotional obligation for me to get the tens of millions of rural population out of poverty and to let them lead a decent life. Now the party and the nation have been mobilized to make concerted effort for the victory of the decisive battle over poverty. To all those still live in difficulty, we will let them know that we do care, and we will let them feel the warmth of heart, from ours to theirs.

Comrades, friends, ladies and gentlemen;
We have only one earth, this is the homeland of all peoples in the world. In the past year, Chinese leaders have participated in quite a few international conferences, and conducted numerous diplomatic activities for the well being of our common home. Our efforts to promote the “One belt, One road” initiative have achieved tangible results. We have participated in the discussion of the UN 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development, as well as a series of world affairs concerning global climate change. The world is too big, and challenges are too many, to go without the voice from China being heard, without solution ideas from China being shared, without the involvement of China being needed. To those suffering from hardships and wars, we not only express our sympathy and solidarity, but will also take duty bound actions to provide help. China will, as always, open its arms to embrace the world, and offer its helping hands to those in need. Our circle of friends will grow bigger.

I sincerely hope that the international community will make concerted effort to make peace, relate to each other in cooperation rather than confrontation; beat swords into plowshares and to build a community of common destiny of all mankind.

Thank you.

The economic invasion of China

Will Malaysia soon be renamed as "Chima", a satellite state of China?

First, we have the Chinese tourists from the mainland coming in droves for the past twenty years spending their renminbi on us. Then, came the selling off of chunk of shares to China in the form of JV in the EDRA power plants, Bandar Malaysia, the commercial port in Malacca and the high speed rail from KL to Singapore projects, each one going into the billions of ringgit.

At the rate things are going, it will not be surprising if someone come out with a cockamamie suggestion to renamed our country as "Chima" (a combination of China and Malaysia), or Cantonese for sesame seeds.

Then, we will have roads with names such as :
Jalan Xi JinPing.
Jalan Mao TseTung
Jalan Deng XioPing.
Jalan Zhou EnLai
Jalan Hu JinTao
Jalan Li Peng
Jalan Jiang Zemin
PutraJaya will be renamed the Great Hall of the People.

Unlikely?  Maybe but one can never know the way things are going on in PutraJaya.  Food for thought, though

Turkey is really going to get it kau kau from Russia. Putin is saying, "Now, that is for shooting down one of our planes."

MUST READ links as Russia heightens its presence in Syria and actions taken against Turkey.

Putin to send 150,000 troops to Syria.  Read news article here.

Russia sends world's largest submarine, with 200 nukes, to Syria.  Read news article here.

Russia strikes Turkish arms depot.  View video here.

This is how Russia could hurt Turkey's economy.  Read news article here.

I certainly would not like to be at the receiving end of the Russian bear.

Are we on the threshold of World War III ??


 So Turkey shot down a Russian jet. Putin is angry and he likens this to 'a stab in the back from a friend.' Russia will now retaliate by bombing Turkey. Being a member of NATO, the Americans will not sit idly by and will support Turkey by entering Syrian airspace to shoot down Russian jets.

China, an ally of Russia, too join in the fray by attacking the American fleet in the South China Sea as a show of old communist fraternity. The Chinese soon built a well fortified base on the Spratly Islands. 

The Americans in the meantime will call upon their closest ally, the Philippines, to render aid. The ASEAN region, which has long been declared a zone of neutrality, is now in doubt, as each country is slowly sucked into the conflict. The Americans, inevitably, has opened up two fronts.

Meanwhile, China called on the North Koreans to contain the Japanese and the South Koreans while they focus on the South China Sea against the Americans.  This was  to ensure that Japan and South Korea who are allies with the US would not launch any attack on Chinese soil.  The North Koreans, who long despise the South Koreans and the Japanese, begin to move their large navy into the Tsugaru Straits. The invasion is broken up into two, with one group heading north to capture Sapporo in Hokkaido, while another group head south via Honshu to capture the city of Tokyo. Japan is unable to defend itself as they are being constrained by their 'peace time' constitution. Japan capitulate.

Meanwhile in the middle east, Russia receives a boost from Iran. The Americans continue to supply arms and military hardware to ISIS to help them fight the Iranians and the Russians. In order not to be left out, Hezbollah, sends in its men to support its Shiite brothers, the Iranians. This was in retaliation for an attack by ISIS on the Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut on November 12 2015. However, the Kurds/YPGs/Peshmergas who have been gaining substantial ground prior to the downing of the Russian jet, are now sandwiched between the Turks in the north, and ISIS in the south who found themselves rejuvenated with arms supplied by the Americans and the Saudis. Defeat for the Kurds is imminent.

 Hamas in support of Hezbollah, start to re launch rocket attacks into Israel.  This was to ensure that Israel will not take this opportunity to attack Hezbollah since most of their men would have joined the Iranians in their fight against ISIS.  Israel activates its Iron Dome.

France, in the meantime, is caught in a quandary, but finally decides to join the Americans. The Russians feel that after Turkey, this is yet another 'stab in the back from a friend.' In the meantime, the European Union is in disarray as states go loggerheads on the handling on the refugee crisis and it is now every state for itself.  As a result of the bombing of Turkey by the Russians, this has created more refugees, this time from Turkey.  In view of the weakened state of the EU, ISIS cells all over Europe were activated simultaneously with attacks on civilians.  Thousands perished.

As the conflict escalates on the two fronts, the Russians finally throw in their Ace of Spade, the intercontinental ballistic missiles.

I woke up with perspiration trickling down the side of my face and quickly went to the balcony to breathe in a gust of fresh morning air, and I noticed that the sky was still blue and the birds were happily chirping away.

The unenviable position of the Americans

Uncle Sam is in an unenviable position as far as the Middle East conflict is concerned.

With the atrocities committed by ISIS, the US is now blamed for the loss of innocent Syrian and Iraqi lives by being the initial co-sponsor of this militant group. The aim was to topple President Bashar al-Assad who was responsible for the killing of his own people by the thousands using chemical bombs and ISIS was thought to be a good idea at that time to topple the regime.

On the other hand, the Americans could have laid back and said, "This is not our problem", human rights groups and other nations will step up the criticisms on American human rights stand. Some will even called it the American hypocrisy.

Well, looks like, DAMNED IF YOU DO AND DAMNED IF YOU DON'T.

Europe is in a big mess now.


A Female Physician in Munich, Germany sends a message to the world ...

Yesterday, at the hospital we had a meeting about how the situation here and at the other Munich hospitals is unsustainable.  Clinics cannot handle emergencies, so they are starting to send everything to the hospitals. 

Many Muslims are refusing treatment by female staff and, we, women are refusing to go among those animals, especially from Africa.  Relations between the staff and migrants are going from bad to worse.  Since last weekend, migrants going to the hospitals must be accompanied by police with K-9 units.

Many migrants have AIDS, syphilis, open TB and many exotic diseases that we, in Europe, do not know how to treat them.  If they receive a prescription in the pharmacy, they learn they have to pay cash.  This leads to unbelievable outbursts, especially when it is about drugs for the children.  They abandon the children with pharmacy staff with the words, "So, cure them here yourselves!"  So the police are not just guarding the clinics and hospitals, but also large pharmacies.

Truly we said openly : Where are all those who welcomed these refugees in front of TV cameras, with signs at train stations?!  Yes, for now, the border has been closed, but a million of them are already here and we will definitely not be able to get rid of them.

Until now, the number of unemployed in Germany was 2.2 million.  Now it will be at least 3.5 million.  Most of these people are completely unemployable.  A bare minimum of them have any education.  What is more, their women usually do not work at all.  I estimate that one in ten is pregnant.  Hundreds of thousands of them have brought along infants and little kids under six, many emaciated and neglected.  If this continues and Germany re-opens its borders, I'm going home to the Czech Republic.  Nobody can keep me here in this situation, not even double the salary than at home.  I went to Germany, not to Africa or the Middle East.

Even the professor who heads our department told us how sad it makes him to see the cleaning woman, who for 800 Euros cleans every day for years, and then meets young men in the hallways who just wait with their hands outstretched, want everything for free, and when they don't get it, they throw a fit.

I really don't need this!  But I'm afraid that if I return, that at some point it will be the same in the Czech Republic.  If the Germans, with their nature cannot handle this, there in Czechia it would be total chaos.  Nobody who has not come in contact with them has not idea what kind of animals they are, especially the ones from Africa, and how Muslims act superior to our staff, regarding their religious accommodation.

For now, the local hospital staff has not come down with the diseased they brought here, but, with so many hundreds of patients every day, this is just a question of time.

In a hospital near the Rhine, migrants attacked the staff with knives after they had handed over an 8-month old on the brink of death, which they had dragged across half of Europe for three months.  The child died in two days, despite having received top care at one of the best pediatric clinics in Germany.  They physician had to undergo surgery and two nurses are laid up in the ICU.  Nobody has been punished.

The local press is forbidden to write about it, so we know about it through email.  What would have happened to a German if he had stabbed a doctor and nurses with a knife?  Or if he had flung his own syphilis-infected urine into a nurse's face and so threatened her with infection?  At a minimum he'd go straight to jail and later to court.  With these people, so far, nothing has happened.

And so I ask, where are all those greeters and receivers from the train stations?  Sitting pretty at home, enjoying their non-profits and looking forward to more trains and their next batch of cash from acting like greeters at the stations.  If it were up to me, I would round up all these greeters and bring them here first to our hospital's emergency ward, as attendants.  Then, into one building with the migrants so they can look after there themselves, without armed police, without police dogs who today are in every hospital here in Bavaria, and without medical help.

I hope our dudheads know what they are doing ....

So, the China Ambassador to Malaysia, H E Huang Hui Kang, has been summoned to appear at our foreign ministry office today to explain for his presence and the statements made by him during his recent visit to Petaling Street.  Knowing these dudheads, they might just screw up the meeting. As a reminder ...


The nation must thank Jibby's servant, Jamal Yunus, for adding another feather in Najib's cap.  Already with local lawsuits, foreign media jabs (with evidence), the haunting of the Altantuya's murder, Sirul's revelation; UK, Swiss, USA and French enforcement investigations, and now ..... CHINA??  This guy truly must be having a death wish of sorts.

Tony Abbot says goodbye

This is how a kafir PM of a kafir country , who had been kicked out, reacted to his removal.

No fuss. No sacking anybody. No blaming the illuminatis, the yahoodzah et al.

And no shouting, no screaming, no red shirt rally, no decree from the Priest saying it is haram to do so, no hiding, no back-door arrival, no nothing.

He just stood there, stone-faced and said bye bye.

Tony Abbott delivers his final statement as Australia's Prime Minister after being stripped of the prime ministership.

[Quote]

Thank you for being here.

This is not an easy day for many people in this building. Leadership changes are never easy for our country. My pledge today is to make this change as easy as I can.

There will be no wrecking, no undermining and no sniping. I've never leaked or backgrounded against anyone and I certainly won't start now.

Our country deserves better than that.

I want our government and our country to succeed. I always have and I always will. I've consistently said in opposition and in government that being the prime minister is not an end in itself; it's about the people you serve. The great privilege that I have had is to see the wonder of this country like few others. And I want to thank the Australian people for giving me the honour to serve.

Yes, this is a tough day, but when you join the game, you accept the rules. I've held true to what I've believed and I'm proud of what we've achieved over the past two years.

The Rohingyas crisis - more than meet the eye.

Apparently, what we have read in the various reports from the internet about the Rohingya boat people are not what it seems.  They are nothing but a pack of lies made up by some people who have a set of agenda to create ill feelings against the Buddhists.  Some part may be true, but certainly not all.

Read the full expose here.

Hail King Abdullah II !!

For taking the life of Jordanian fighter pilot, Mouath al-Kasaesbeh, retribution was swift.  The Jordanian air force led by King Abdullah II killed 55 ISIS members including one commander in Iraq.  More to fall.

A fine example of leadership between Hamas and Israel

Hamas decided to send a gift to the President of Israel . They sent him an elaborate box with a note . The President opened the box and saw that the content was faeces ( shit). He opened the note which said, “This is for you and your people!" The President of Israel thought nothing of it and decided to reciprocate by sending his gift to Hamas with a personal note.
The leader of Hamas were very surprised to receive the parcel and opened it very carefully, suspecting that it might contain a bomb. He discovered that it contained a small “chip” that was rechargeable by solar energy with 1800 Terabyte memory and a 3D hologram display capable of functioning in any type of cellular phone or Tablet or laptop. In other words the most advanced technological invention and development made in Israel. The Hamas leader was surprised by this wonderful gift, until he read the note which said; “ Each leader gives the best his people can produce “

Meet the new faces of the Iraqi soldiers.

Knowing how superstitious the ISIS militants are, the new look will probably send them running for cover.  Perhaps this is a new form of psychological warfare?  No wonder ISIS is now on full retreat in Iraq.

Female Pilot Leads Airstrikes Against ISIS

FOX News can confirm that the first female pilot for the UAE served as the team leader in the U.S. led coalition airstrikes against ISIS in Syria.

Major Mariam Al Mansouri is the first woman to join the Emirati Air Force—a dream she has held since she was a teenager.  She graduated from the academy in 2008 and now serves as a squadron commander, piloting F-16 fighter jets.

Al Mansouri, 35, is the first woman from an Arab nation to fly a mission-- dropping bombs on Sunni terrorists.

The United States and five Arab allies, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, launched a series of airstrikes against ISIS targets inside Syria.
