Mati syahid jadi umpan IS tarik belia perangi ‘lubuk dosa’

By Nawar Firdaws

 KUALA LUMPUR: Umpan syahid dan dibersihkan dosa adalah kaedah IS menarik minat generasi muda khasnya belia bermasalah dan jahil agama menyertai kumpulan pengganas itu, menurut seorang pakar kajian keganasan.
“Mereka yang menyertai IS adalah orang yang tidak mempunyai pemahaman mendalam tentang agama, menjadikannya lebih mudah untuk mempengaruhi mereka, terutama individu yang kelihatan arif dalam kitab suci Al-Quran,” kata R Paneir Selvam, yang mengetuai Persatuan Penyelidik Undang-undang dan Dasar.
Jelasnya, IS juga berjaya meyakinkan sesetengah umat Islam yang Malaysia menyimpang daripada ajaran Islam sebenar.
“Inilah propaganda IS, menyebarkan mesej Malaysia merupakan lubuk dosa.
“Mereka berjaya meyakinkan sesetengah orang yang kegagalan negara untuk memenuhi harapan mereka, terutama dalam aspek agama, layak digelar lubuk dosa dan tidak harus dikecualikan daripada serangan mereka,” katanya.
Paneir memberitahu FMT, kumpulan pengganas yang berpangkalan di Iraq dan Syria itu tidak sama dengan Al-Qaeda kerana ia tidak berstruktur.
“Dengan hanya satu petunjuk kecil atau mesej daripada pemimpin, anggotanya akan melancarkan serangan dengan segera.
“Mereka juga didorong untuk bertindak bagi saudara Islam yang dibunuh di tempat lain,” katanya.
Untuk memerangi IS, Paneir menyarankan pihak berkuasa melangkaui kaedah konvensional melalui penubuhan sebuah pasukan pakar terdiri daripada pelbagai latar belakang.
“Anda tidak boleh bergantung kepada pakar topik Islam semata-mata. Sama seperti amalan FBI di Amerika Syarikat (Biro Penyiasatan Persekutuan), sebuah pasukan pakar dengan pelbagai disiplin, agama dan kepakaran perlu dibentuk.
“Ini perlu supaya mereka mempunyai gambaran lebih lengkap dan pemahaman terhadap masalah ini untuk mencari penyelesaian baru di luar kotak,” kata pensyarah Universiti Help itu.
Seorang anggota IS warga Malaysia, Mohd Rafi Udin, baru-baru ini mengancam melancarkan serangan ke atas rakyat Malaysia, termasuk “memenggal leher” anggota polis di Bukit Aman, menerusi rakaman video pada 21 Jun lalu.
Pada 28 Jun, sebuah pub di Puchong diserang dengan bom tangan, mencederakan lapan pengunjung.
Polis kemudian mengesahkan ia adalah serangan pertama IS di Malaysia.

India-Malaysia ties and the future

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is on his first official visit to India. The main aim of this visit is to seek support for Malaysia’s application to join Brics and to fortify bilateral ties, as the country is keen to improve its connections with one of the rapidly expanding economies in Asia. In light of the increasing crumbling of the global order, particularly stemming from trade disputes between the United States and China, as well as the proxy conflict involving the United States and Russia, Malaysia is encouraged to reassess its foreign policy to uphold its neutral stance. Given India’s status as the largest democracy and the fifth-largest economy globally, along with its notable advancements in indigenous space and defence technologies, it is proposed that India emerge as Malaysia’s key partner in the years ahead. Why India is important for Malaysia The historical ties between India and Malaysia extend back several centuries, with significant Indian cultural, religious, and administ...

THE HISTORY OF TERRORISM: MORE THAN 200 YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT

The history of terrorism dates back at least 1500 years when Jewish resistance groups (66 - 72 A.D.) known as Zealots killed Roman soldiers and destroyed Roman property. The term assassin comes from a Shi'ite Muslim sect (Nizari Isma'ilis - also known as hashashins "hashish-eaters") fighting Sunni Muslims (1090 - 1275) and during Medieval Christendom resisting occupation during the Crusades (1095-1291). The hashashins were known to spread terror in the form of murder, including women and children. The brotherhood of Assassins committed terror so as to gain paradise and seventy-two virgins if killed and to receive unlimited hashish while on earth. The modern development of terrorism began during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror (1793 - 1794). During this period the term terrorism was first coined. Through the past two hundred years, terrorism has been used to achieve political ends and has developed as a tool for liberation, oppression, and i...

The by-election in Kuala Kubu Baharu (KKB) and the Indian electorate

  I was born in Malaysia, belonging to the Indian ethnic group, which constitutes approximately 7% of the country's total population. My durable credence is that I am Malaysian first and foremost, and only then do I identify myself as Indian. Regrettably, it saddens me to witness and hear about the actions of certain politicians who question my loyalty to Malaysia. What is even more disheartening is that some Malaysians have been influenced by the manipulative rhetoric of these self-serving politicians. Recently, I have observed numerous discussions on both mainstream and online news platforms regarding the recognition and inclusion of Indians by ruling parties. Surprisingly, even the opposition has displayed a significant interest in the welfare of Indians. Upon contemplating the reasons behind this sudden surge in attention towards Indians, it becomes evident that it is primarily driven by the upcoming Kuala Kubu Baharu (KKB) by-election. It is noteworthy that such ...
