Anwar not loyal to country: Dr M

(Bernama) – Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said if Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was loyal to Jewish groups , he could not be loyal to his own country.

“Of course if you are loyal to them, you cannot be loyal to Malaysia, but it is up to the people to decide,” he told reporters after the closing of the International Conference on Breaking the Siege: In the Spirit of Rachel Corrie and Mavi Marmara by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, here, today.

Dr Mahathir said he was not surprised if a political leader like Anwar was very unhappy because the Jews were suspicious of his loyalty to them.

“So, he is now getting Cable News Network (CNN) to show that he is really loyal to them,” he said.

Recently, Trevino Strategies and Media Inc president Joshua Trevino wrote on an influential United States online news portal, The New Ledger, that Anwar hired media contacts, particularly in CNN to apologise for his Jew-bashing.

Trevino also claimed that CNN’s Connector of the Day programme was so tame in questioning Anwar’s anti-Semitic rhetoric to help him rebuild his image through the apology tour.
