#1 WWIV started on 9/11/01. Mahathir probably heard about it. Maybe even praised Allah for it at Friday prayers.

#2 What he really means is if this is settled through force we are going to lose, the way we are going to win is through 'negotiation' and gradually rolling back our opponent's advantage.

#3 "Notice me! Notice me!" Mahatir screamed, stamping his tiny feet in impotent rage. "It's still my turn! My fifteen minutes aren't up yet! Why are you lavishing your attention on that Chavez bastard when it's me you really want? Damn you all, I'm important too! . . .

That worked so well during the 1930s.

#5 Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran are hardly the "world". This clown has delusions of grandeur.

However, if he'd like to call it the US-Muzzie war, I'd be happy with that moniker.

#6 who had described the US as a "mass murderer" for its invasion of Iraq.

I truly believe these muzzies know so little of history that they are not aware of the mass murder we can commit when properly aroused. Someone from the Japanese embassy should pay a visit and familiarize them on the alternative consequences of opposing versus playing ball with Uncle Sam.

#7 He was a loudmouthed troublemaker his entire time as PM of Malaysia. I always hoped we'd bitchslap him like he deserved but what happened was even better--we ignored him. That drove his lame wannabe butt slap berserk. He's just a second-class jerk who wants his betters to notice him--a bandarlog

#10 He described the Cold War as the third World War.

That's what I think history will finally call it. It was a global war against communist expansionism fought by the major powers through proxies. Korea and Vietnam were the two major conflicts with Central/South America and other small 'brushfire' conflicts in Africa and Asia. In places such as Korea and Cuba it's still lingering on with a up-tick in South America with socialists coming back into power.

#11 Remember, he was supposedly the epitome of Moderate Mulsim leaders.

Shortly after 9/11 I read a book (Islam Beyond Violence IIRC) that held him up as just that. Sadly, I'm not sure the book was wrong.

#12 Mahathir is a moderate because he believes the ummah must build up their strength before attacking the infidels.
