Malaysia is half a world away from Israel. Mahathir’s animus toward Israel is based on fictional “Palestinian” grievance propaganda and ultimately upon Islamic antisemitism. The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).
“Malaysia’s PM: ‘The world obeys Israel, we don’t,'” by Herb Keinon, Jerusalem Post, January 28, 2019:
The world “obeys” Israel, but Malaysia does not, Malaysian Prime Minister Mathair [sic] Mohammed – who has a history of antisemitic statements – said on Monday regarding the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) decision to strip his country of the 2019 World Para Swimming Championships because of his decision to bar Israeli athletes.
“They want to cancel it, then cancel it,” Mahathir said. “I do not understand why the world must follow Israel. The world has the power, but they choose to obey Israel. We do not obey.”
If Malaysia cannot organize this sporting event, he told reporters in Putrajaya in comments carried widely in the Malaysia press, “we can organize other ones.”
The IPC announced its decision on Sunday.
When Mathair [sic], who became prime minister last May for the second time, was reminded that Malaysia allowed the Israeli cricket team to play in a Malaysian tournament in 1997 during his first term in office from 1981 to 2003, he replied: “Yes, I did. I also allowed Israeli schoolchildren to come here. We wanted to show them that Muslims are not terrorists. That we are normal people and we behave well.
“But what do they [Israelis] do? When children throw stones at them, they shoot them,” he said.
Mahathir said that Malaysia has the right “to voice our own feelings and to have our own policies.”
The IPC, however, has a different take, saying that Malaysia’s ban on the Israeli swimmers constituted an illegitimate mixing of politics and sport.
Andrew Parsons, the IPC president, said on Sunday: “All world championships must be open to all eligible athletes and nations to compete safely and free from discrimination. When a host country excludes athletes from a particular nation, for political reasons, then we have absolutely no alternative but to look for a new championships host.”
Mahathir, in his comments, slammed Israel as a “criminal nation.”
“It has been breaking international laws without people saying anything about it,” he said….

When you’re out of real arguments, blaming Israel is one of the “best” of bogus arguments.

Yep.
c matt says
It is certainly is prerogative to ban Israelis or whomever from the country. The IPC is also within its rights to hold the event elsewhere. Sports and politics have been mixed since the original Olympic games of ancient Greece. I recall a certain country boycotting the Olympics for political reasons.
Dov Berrol says
There is a great difference between a nation deciding not to send its citizens to a worldwide event to a country to protest the host nation’s actions or policies versus a nation hosting an event created by a worldwide organization and then discriminating against certain members of that organization after the event was agreed upon. Russia could never bar gay American athletes from participating in a Winter Olympic Games hosted by that country but America could choose not to participate in competitions in Russia to protest their discriminatory policies against gays and lesbians. The Bureau of International Exhibitions would never have allowed the Muslim United Arab Emirates to host World Expo 2020 if Dubai refused to allow Israel to have a pavilion at the event.

MMM
Moderate Modern Malaysia
Wellington says
Yes, sidney penney, putting the lie again as you have to the contention that there is a moderate Islam lurking out there somewhere. No there isn’t.
There ARE Muslims who don’t fully implement Islam’s many heinous dictates (e.g., death for apostasy), but so what? One could have found many Nazi Party members in the 1930’s or Communists during the Cold War who were not “inclined” to implement all doctrines of their malevolent ideology of choice— and this is largely irrelevant.
No ideology, including good ones like Christianity and that wrapped up with democratic principles, let alone awful ones like Nazism and Islam, should be judged by adherents who ineptly, ignorantly, corruptly, lazily, even hypocritically, etc. are deficient in applying their ideology to the full.
Ultimately, and no exceptions here, an ideology should be judged by what it avers and NEVER by the fact that many adherents of the ideology in question don’t completely apply, or wrongly apply, its theories.
Thus, I am pro-democracy, pro-Christianity. And thus, I am utterly opposed to Marxism, Nazism and Islam. It’s a no-brainer here.

Malaysia’s Prime Minister: “The world has the power, but they choose to obey Israel. We do not obey.”
………………………
By “obeying Israel”, he means that Infidels don’t want to destroy her, as do Muslims.

It is not Israel who makes the rules but IPC , it is open to all countries who want to be in games. If you want to host the games you obey the rules of the people who set up and run them period .If you can not follow the rules the games can be held somewhere else.

Muslims don’t obey no one but a pedophile and a terrorist, Muhammad.

It’s not just Muslims who just believe this !!!
Why does America give billions of dollars of aid to Israel every year ?
Why does almost every food product you buy is Kosher ? Hidden Jewish tax perhaps ? While having less than 2% of the population?
Why is it a crime to investigate the holocaust?
Why does Israel bomb Syria with out any repercussions from the world community ?
Why do most or all have Congress have to pledge an oath to Israel ?
How many wars has the US fought on behalf of the Israel ?
Iraq was 1
Libya was 2
Syria is 3 is still going
Lebanon will be 4 (depending on Russia)
Iran will be 5 (Depending on Russia )
