Malaysia cracks down on bloggers
The Malaysian government has warned it could use tough anti-terrorism laws against bloggers who insult Islam or the country’s king.

But officials insist the law is not intended to strangle internet freedom.

Gosh, who’da thought we’d look like a mirror of an Islamist country?
Should be no surprise to anyone familiar with the politics of power. Free speech is the first thing that must go for fascism to bloom.
All the people braying about the Isalmist threat need to wake up and realize our own government is working in exactly the same directions as the people they’d make war on.
