2 Burn all Bibles with ‘Allah’ (Ibrahim Ali, Perkasa)
Proclaiming he is not instigating communal tensions, Ibrahim Ali says it’s the only way to stop non-Muslims from stirring sensitivities
Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali has called on Muslims to seize and burn copies of Bibles which contain the term “Allah” or other Arabic religious words.
“Muslims must unite to protect their religion. They must seize those Bibles, including the Malay editions, which contained the term Allah and other Arabic religious terms, and burn them.
“This is the way to show our anger against disrespect to our sensitivity,” he told a press conference after delivering his presidential speech at a Perkasa convention here today.

6 Ramadan greeting (Alvivi)
1. They’re eating Bak Kut Teh.
2. They’re holding up pieces of pork
3. The Halal sign is being used with nothing on that picture being halal.
4. They’re propagating how tasty bak kut teh is when they know very well that the dish is not to be eaten by Muslims.
Sure this may seem like a little joke, but this is too far. We get the message about ’1Malaysia’, but it’s really a crass thing to do to directly insult the majority’s religious background.
We know these two mean no direct harm, but this is obviously really not a good idea to do something like this during an auspicious month in Malaysia.
