The Old Recalcitrant is at it again. To him it's a game and all the nonsense about race, country and religion is just that bovine crap. De Gaulle could claim 'I am France' and we could accept that. But Mahathir is definitely not Malaysia. In fact, he has been Malaysia's greatest enemy.

Look at the way he messed up the democratic institutions and bent them to his will. Our country is God-blessed to have abundant resources to withstand the 22 years of his waste, abuse and corruption.

He is moaning now because it's a game he enjoys and plays well. He doesn't have answers; only lies and half-truths. The spin of him being a great world-class statesman is as true as my grandmother is the Empress of China. He is the Kampong Tyrant and barefaced liar who will keep on repeating his lies because he knows there will be fools who will believe him if he repeats his lies often enough. It's an old Hitler propaganda trick.

Remember Anwar Ibrahim? You can call him (Anwar) corrupt and thieving and hypocritical and I will give you the benefit of the doubt. But a sodomist? I will never allow you to insult my intelligence. Only a mentally deranged, evil sadist will have the satisfaction of seeing Anwar framed as a sodomist. The sad thing is there are still people who believe the sodomy frame-up even though the court has since discharged the case.

Mahathir wants to go down in history if not in glory, then in controversy. The key word is 'go down in history'. He doesn't care two hoots that his very public criticism of the goody-goody Pak Lah is hurting Malaysia. It is a means to an end. And what is the end? His place in history. It has nothing to do with the race, the nation, and the religion. That is hogwash. He has a need to be the centre of attention and he is afraid he will be lost to history.

The question is: Is what he is doing morally right? Of course, it's not if it means the destruction of the country for personal glory. He has never been a moral man. He is just old, frustrated, evil, recalcitrant and grouchy.

He also has a subconscious sick need to destroy Umno - (remember all the crises?) even at the height of his powers - and, in turn, the nation. Which at the end of the day might not be a bad thing. Anything might be better than the present corrupt, inept, abusive system of robber-barons and petty thieves sustained by Umno.

The pity is the thieves and robbers are not going to give up their easy takings without a fight and they will always use the successful minorities as the bogeymen.
