Najib walked into an inquisition with his eyes closed
Najib is facing many charges. He must go to court and rip the Prosecution’s case to shreds. And unless the court says Najib is guilty, then he has to be presumed to be innocent according to the spirit of Pakatan Harapan’s ‘Rule of Law’ doctrine. But then even if the court says Najib is not guilty, the Pakatan Harapan people will not accept that and will still insist Najib is guilty.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Do you believe that God exists? Do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Do you believe that the Bible is the Word of God?
If you answer ‘no’ to all or to one of the above during an inquisition you would be pronounced a heretic and would be sentenced to death. An inquisition is not about evidence to support your belief. It is about whether you believe or not. And a ‘no’ answer is punished with death.
Actually, the onus is on those who believe in the existence of God to prove that God does exist. Since you, and not me, are making a claim regarding God’s existence, then it is your job to prove the existence of God, not my job to prove that God does not exist.
And the same goes for the belief that Jesus is the Son of God. How do you know that Jesus is the Son of God? Because the Books of the New Testament say so? Did Jesus write those Books? If not, then who wrote those Books? Has Paul ever met Jesus? How then does Paul know what Jesus said if he never met Jesus other than the voices he heard in his head? If today people claim they hear voices in their heads would they not be locked up?
The foundation of Christianity is the belief in the crucifixion and the resurrection and this belief is based on faith and not evidence
And that is why I do not believe in Christianity, Jesus or the Bible. It is because no one can come forward with evidence to support their beliefs. In fact, they cannot even show us evidence that Jesus is not a myth — or whether there is a historical Jesus and a mythical Jesus and both have been mistakenly taken as one and the same.
That, is the phenomena called faith and belief. When belief is supported with evidence we call it fact but when belief lacks evidence we call it faith. So, in essence, faith is the opposite of fact and faith lacks evidence.
The same goes with the belief that Najib Tun Razak stole billions of 1MDB’s money and that he is behind (or involved in) three murders. If is a belief that has been trumpeted for so many years that that belief has now turned into a sort of religion.
Pakatan Harapan supporters do not wish for facts and evidence to interfere with their beliefs
Just as you cannot turn people from their belief in Jesus and the Bible, you also cannot turn people from their belief that Najib stole billions of 1MDB’s money and that he is somehow linked to three murders.
Najib has to accept this reality and not continue to try to convince people of his innocence. Those who believe Najib is guilty of stealing billions of 1MDB’s money and that he is behind three murders will not change their belief even if Najib does 100 interviews.
This issue has gone beyond talk-shows and interviews. It is now a matter before the courts. In talk-shows and interviews, Najib will be asked to show evidence of his innocence (like what Tun Dr Mahathir asked him to do) while, in court, the Prosecution needs to show evidence to prove Najib’s guilt.
Najib faced an inquisition dressed up as an Aljazeera interview and in an inquisition you are already presumed guilty
What Najib faced yesterday in his Aljazeera interview was an inquisition. They wanted to crucify Najib (and in an inquisition they have already decided you are guilty and they just want you to admit with your own mouth that you are guilty).
The Aljazeera interview was not meant to help Najib clear his name. It was meant to prove to the world that Najib is guilty of all the allegations against him. It was a ‘you are guilty, now prove your innocence’ session.
Anwar Ibrahim and Mahathir also faced the same thing. They crucified Anwar and Mahathir and made them look bad. Anwar could not answer a simple question as to whether he is gay while Mahathir could not answer the question regarding the allegations of corruption against him.
In the interview Anwar was asked three times whether he is gay and he refused to say ‘yes’ or ‘no’
When asked, three times, whether he is gay, Anwar refused to say either ‘yes’ or ‘no’. When asked about the allegations of corruption against him, Mahathir replied he has never been charged for any corrupt act (and since he was never charged that means he is not corrupt).
I suppose since Chin Peng was never tried for any terrorist act that means he was not a CT (Communist Terrorist) and never killed anyone.
The Prosecution needs to prove that Najib is guilty of all the charges against him. Najib just needs to raise reasonable doubt. That should be the focus and the task ahead. Does Najib have evidence to prove his innocence? If he does then the Prosecution’s case collapses and Najib walks free.
Regarding the three murders that they say Najib was involved in, it is now up to the IGP to gather the evidence and to send it to the AG to decide whether to arrest and charge Najib for these murders.
Gopal Sri Ram will need to prove with tangible evidence and not mere hearsay that Najib is guilty
Unless they arrest and charge Najib for three murders, I will insist he is not guilty. I will also insist Najib is not guilty because this was what the one-time Director of the Special Branch personally told me. And they are anti-Najib so why would they tell me Najib is not guilty of murder unless he is not guilty?
Nevertheless, even if the IGP or AG announces that Najib is not guilty of three murders, the Pakatan Harapan supporters will not believe it and will still believe he is guilty of murder. So why go before Aljazeera to try to clear your name when the result will be zero?
Najib is facing many charges. He must go to court and rip the Prosecution’s case to shreds. And unless the court says Najib is guilty, then he has to be presumed to be innocent according to the spirit of Pakatan Harapan’s ‘Rule of Law’ doctrine. But then even if the court says Najib is not guilty, the Pakatan Harapan people will not accept that and will still insist Najib is guilty.
