7th Rangers: Govt 'hypocritical' to bask in Yeoh's Oscar win while curbing local films - LFL - The movie, Everything Everywhere All at Once is equivalent to Rasmus Pauldan's burning of a Koran
Fighting Seventh
The Fighting Rangers On War, Politics and Burning Issues
Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
Govt 'hypocritical' to bask in Yeoh's Oscar win while curbing local films - LFL - The movie, Everything Everywhere All at Once is equivalent to Rasmus Pauldan's burning of a Koran
Malaysiakini : It is “hypocritical and insincere” for the government to praise Hollywood star Michelle Yeoh for her Oscar win, while at the same time, “persecuting” local film producers and actors.
So said Lawyers for Liberty director Zaid Malek, while commenting on the police probe against indie film ‘Mentega Terbang’.
“We refer to the praise that the prime minister and other government leaders have lavished upon Yeoh over her historic Oscar win for best actress for the movie ‘Everything, Everywhere, All at Once’.
“It is hypocritical, insincere, and contradictory for government leaders and Finas (National Film Development Corporation) to sing praises for Yeoh’s win while hardworking local film producers and actors are subjected to harassment and criminal investigations over the content of their films,” Zaid said in a statement today.
The article
also carried a photograph of the wafer with a caption that identified it
as the wafer that was placed in his mouth. Christians were “outraged that these Muslim men consumed it [the communion]
only to spit it out later, have it photographed, and have its image
published”.
Here is a Malaysian take: Proarte : This is the real face of Madani Malaysia. It is running with the hares and hunting with the hounds.
It is 2 faced as the response to Michelle Yeoh's Oscar win reveals.
If Anwar can praise Michelle Yeoh in her film which apparently has LGBT themes and yet standby without any comment and see local films like Pulau and Mentega Terbang being subject to insults, moral condemnation from Muslim authorities, humiliation and police investigation, it is a clear case of double standards and hypocrisy.
Politicians are holding Malaysians back. When will we be allowed to be free as a People? I fear Madani Malaysia is a mere slogan to cover our failures in allowing true reforms to take place which is what Malaysians sacrificed so much for, only to realise it is a hoax.
Winning accolades and critical acclaim at the box-office, and showered with awards at the 95th Academy Awards, "Everything Everywhere All at Once" is a standard-bearer for anti-family, anti-life, and anti-Catholic propaganda so beloved by the Left.
