Critical Thoughts

Something about this whole liwat thing bothers me, despite the so-called “Qur’an swearing” and all. I’ve never seen a more relaxed sodomy victim sitting calmly in a room full of pressmen and photographers and taking questions without batting even an eyelid. You would think that a post-traumatic victim of sodomee would show some kind of anxiety disorder or distress after being violated in the butt-hole. But truth is, I do not see any of those signs in Saiful Bukhari Azlan. Do I think he is a victim? The answer is obvious.

As for the so-called “Quran-swearing” event itself, I have yet to see the video of the actual process taking place so I cannot say for certain what actually transpired, although according to the Malaysiakini reports the scene was recorded and shown to the reporters. I’ve done my fair share of swearing on the Qur’an to respond to the fitna of an Islam Liberal (who has convieniently until today yet to reply) but the way this whole thing is playing out in the “sodomy victim’s” case just does not feel right.

You would think that those people in question would drop this tired, old claim of “he sodomied me!” since it is obvious that its a lie. No one in their right mind is likely to believe that a happily-married man with five kids is going around sodomising people.

I didn’t believe a word of it in 1998 (which was part of the reason why I left UMNO). I do not believe it now.
