Malaysian media should pose critical questions to the US and its Intelligence Services and not to the Malaysian Government Let me state from the outset that I totally agree with the press statements by Malaysia’s Defence Minister and Acting Transport Minister, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein that “we have conducted ourselves fairly, responsibly and history will judge us for that.” And to a mischievous and presumptuous question from a correspondent of the Financial Times, Datuk Seri with confidence and integrity rightly said without any fear of contradiction that, “I don’t think we could have done anything different from what we have already done.” Well done! The Financial Times, CNN and other foreign media ought to pose similar questions to the US and its intelligence services and stop insinuating that Malaysia has not been transparent and/or engaged in a cover-up. Foreign media should stop engaging in dirty politics!

There are voices raised openly calling for peace enforcement like in the case of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. As theChristian Science Monitor puts it, «As with the Balkan wars of the 1990s, Europe cannot ignore this violent strife on its doorstep – and in a country whose people aspire to join the EU» (1). «In reality, Washington’s goal is not to push the country into the arms of the European Union, but to deprive Russia of its historical partners.
