Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Malaysia: Beer festival canceled for fear of jihad terror attack

Sep 24, 2017 12:12 pm By Robert Spencer

“On Sept 21, Inspector-General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun was reported as saying that police had advised DBKL against allowing the event because of security reasons. He was quoted by Bernama as saying that police had received information on militants planning to sabotage the event.”

Do the social media giants realize what is coming? It won’t end with counter-jihadists. Once they have denied us all access to their platforms and silenced us completely, peace and harmony will not dawn. Instead, the Left’s Islamic supremacist allies will begin making new demands. Beer festivals not just in Malaysia, which once had a reputation for being “moderate,” will be shut down. Other activities that are not Sharia-compliant will be shut down. There will be no “coexistence,” even for those with the bumper sticker. There will be only the supremacy of Islamic norms.

Racist, bigoted, “Islamophobic” paranoia? I’d say “Bookmark this page and check back in 10 years,” but by then this site will likely have long since been shut down. Just remember that everyone in the West thought their lives of comfort and ease would continue indefinitely, and that the civil strife and unrest we see in other countries over Sharia implementation, with the violent persecution of those who are not Sharia-compliant, would never happen here, and that only paranoid “Islamophobes” thought otherwise. It will be hard to remember by then that you were warned, but…you were.

“Santiago: Why can’t police keep beer festival safe?,” FMT, September 24, 2017:

PETALING JAYA: Klang MP Charles Santiago has questioned why police could not provide protection for the Better Beer Festival 2017 which has been ordered to be cancelled.

He said police had been able to do so for other major events that had sizeable crowds.

The DAP legislator said the festival, scheduled to be held on Oct 6 and 7 at Publika Shopping Gallery in Kuala Lumpur before the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) disallowed it last week, was supposed to be a beer-tasting event, featuring craft beer from various countries available at one venue.

“It’s certainly not a scenario where one gets free-flowing alcohol, drug abuse and illicit sex in a dark alley. This is not a Hollywood movie.”

He said there were many public events drawing large crowds held throughout the year, like the SEA Games in Kuala Lumpur last month, the Merdeka Day parade and football matches.

“We can’t certainly hold any of these gatherings if we are afraid of a handful of unruly spectators or the possibility of a militant attack,” he said in a statement today.

“Our police have always risen to the occasion and kept these celebrations and sporting events safe.

“Why is the annual craft beer festival any different?”

On Sept 21, Inspector-General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun was reported as saying that police had advised DBKL against allowing the event because of security reasons.

He was quoted by Bernama as saying that police had received information on militants planning to sabotage the event.

In a statement on Sept 18, the festival organiser, MyBeer Malaysia, said they were told by the authorities that the event was “politically sensitive” and therefore could not proceed as scheduled.

Santiago said he did not dismiss the fact that the police had a role in maintaining peace.

“But people smell a rat when they feel the police are playing a role in partisan politics.”

On Sept 19, Santiago had criticised DBKL’s move, saying it was a clear sign of creeping Islamisation.

“We have been seeing growing protests from Islamists, PAS and other conservative groups against concerts by Western artistes, songs deemed too racy and even Valentine’s Day celebrations,” he had said.

“Such radical elements are dangerous in a multiracial, multi-religious country such as Malaysia, where the Federal Constitution guarantees civil liberties for all citizens,” he added.

    Muslims doing Muslim things. They have the obligation to prohibit what they consider to be sin ….. our way of life, our freedom is sin according to their point of view.

    Decades ago, when people said Islam is horrible, infidels is going to suffer, then leftiests quickly jumped out and said Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei and Turkey are moderate Islamic countries, infidel do not suffer. Today, as a matter of fact, all of the moderate Islamic countries turned into Islamic states where infidel’s right has been denied.

    Since Leftiests has joined forces with Islamic organization, it is so obvious that peace is not coming until the last day where leftiests and Muslim eliminate all Jews, Christian and infidels on the surface of world.

    Quran said:

    8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.8:67. It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

    9:29. Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

      You say “Since Leftiests has joined forces with Islamic organization, it is so obvious that peace is not coming until the last day where leftiests and Muslim eliminate all Jews, Christian and infidels on the surface of world.”

      Leftists don’t realise that once Islam has the power they will be the first to be eliminated by the most devout muslims. No other muslim will come to their defence

        Yes–as soon as the Mullahs consolidated their power in Iran, one of the first things they did was violently liquidate the Communist Tudeh Party, which had supported the Islamic revolution.

    “Beer festival canceled for fear of jihad terror attack”
    Imagine the ISLAMIC OUTRAGE if there was a festival for bacon, pork chops, pork rinds, sausage, smoked ham and bratwurst, and bacon bits on all salads.

      If we ignore the ISLAMIC OUTRAGE you paint such a lovely picture.

    Dear Robert, your above quoted writing is probably the most poignant, precise, prophetic, factual and above all, remarkably sincere I have read, over the past year or so, on an anti jihad website.

    I bet that your brain was as clear as crystal, when writing it! Come on, tell me, was it coffee?

    The Constitution guarantees “civil liberties” for all Malaysians? Does civil liberties include the right to choose your own religion? If so, why do the Malays HAVE to be Muslim?

    • gravenimage says

      Sep 25, 2017 at 10:52 pm

      Yes–ethnic Malays have to be Muslims in Malaysia, by law. Just look at the case of Lina Joy–a Malaysian woman who tried for years to legally convert to Christianity.
