    Mahathir's Malaysia sets up online unit to monitor criticism of Islam

    Mahathir's Malaysia isn't setting up an online unit to monitor Islamic terrorists.

    It's setting up an online unit to monitor everyone else.

    Why?

    Malaysia wants to know who is saying what about Islam, Islamism, Muhammad and his 6 year old wife.

    And the Malaysian police and courts are ready to dispense swift and severe injustice to anyone who dares to be critical.

    PETALING JAYA: Putrajaya has set up a special unit to monitor online activity for any form of insult against Islam, following several cases of people allegedly insulting Prophet Muhammad on Facebook.

    Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mujahid Yusof Rawa said the unit, which will come under the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim), has been tasked with monitoring any form of writing or provocation against Islam or Prophet Muhammad on all media platforms including social media.

    “I have also asked them to lodge reports immediately with the police and the Communications and Multimedia Commission if they receive any complaints about the matter,” he said in a statement today.

    He said those with information or complaints can WhatsApp the unit’s hotline at 010-300 5260 or email [email protected].

    “I believe the authorities have made the right move to tackle the issue,” he said. “I hope we can all work together to maintain harmony in the country.

    “Our country has laws. Those who have done wrong must be appropriately punished.”

    Police have so far detained three people accused of insulting Prophet Muhammad on Facebook.

    Top cop Mohamad Fuzi Harun said that as of March 5, police had received 929 reports across the country and opened 16 investigation papers on cases connected to insulting Islam.

    Police are also tracking down another man who allegedly insulted the prophet on Twitter.

    Babi muhammad bodoh.

    Roughly translates to "Muhammad, stupid pig".

    Those 3 words have cost 22 year old Alister Cogia the next 10 years of his life.

    Read local news report here (you can translate it online using Google).

    Malaysian police have been ordered to go on the offensive against people who "insult" Islam, the Prophet Muhammad or his 6 year bride Aisyah.

    So far this year, more than 900 people in Malaysia have been reported to police for insulting Islam, the prophet or his 9 year old conquest.

    This is a shocking, frightening development.

    The warning from police is not confined to Muslims, nor is it confined to Malaysian nationals.

    If you've republished an anti-Islam comment on Facebook or Twitter and you come within the grasp of Malaysian police, this could be you.

    10 years jail for "insulting" Islam on social media is a mediaeval punishment. One day is too much.

    Australia must protest to Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad's new government.

    And we should make it clear that there will be serious consequences should any Australian be so much as looked at by Malaysia's thought police
