UAE: Gulf must tackle Muslim Brotherhood threat
ABU DHABI - Gulf Arab countries should work together to stop Islamist group the Muslim Brotherhood plotting to undermine governments
UAE has arrested around 60 local Islamists this year, accusing them of conspiring to overthrow the government.

And it goes on and on. These are the same Arab tribal conflicts that have been going on for a thousand years. They have nothing to do with us and we have nothing to do with them. Perbalahan antara kabilah Arab ini selama lebih seribu tahun tidak ada sebarang kena-mengena dengan kita atau sesiapa pun di rantau kita. Malangnya kian lama, makin ramai penganut agama Arab ini membawa masuk fikiran kolot, karut marut dan khurafat Pak Arab padang pasir untuk memporak perandakan keamanan negara kita. Nasi yang sudah basi mempunyai martabat yang lebih tinggi dan mulia daripada khurafat dan karut marut Pak Arab padang pasir ini. Lebih baik kita tinggalkan mereka dan rekaan mereka yang sesat dan menyesatkan manusia.
