Homeland Stupidity: Security policies that put..

I read an interesting article at Cnet.com about security policies in the U.S.

You might be interested in it. Here's the link below >>

Good day!

Towards Understanding secret of the Prophetic Kingdom

You know, I surf and do research via the Internet and sometime I come across websites or book on sales branding Islam as a dangerous occult, terrorist organization or what have you. If that were true, I would have been hiding somewhere training myself or planning suicide bombing. As, I'm a muslim, people would think I'm that. But, the reality is, I'm not. I'm just a typical guy, you'll meet and talk on the street.

I go see a movie, I go to starbuck, KFC or any other normal thing that others do. So, why are there still people out there still insist that Islam is a terrorist organization if there's 'normal' people like me in it?

I have to admit that, it's not surprising as in this world, you choose which side you want to be in. You can be in the camp of thoughts that think Islam is a dangerous religion but there will be another camp on the other side that think it isn't. So, which camp are you from?

(Note: If someone accuse you of something that you didn't do wouldn't you be angry yourself?)

Or maybe, you just don't know or don't care!

For me though, I'm not really interested in what you think what Islam is. There are some people out there that only have one view of Islam. It doesn't matter though. It's their problem and sometime you can't force people to believe in your view of things. We think what we want.

Anyway, life is simple if you keep it simple. That's my motto.

The world though, or life might not be so simple as you might want to think. There's so many secrets to life that if you dig deep enough you might find that it isn't so.

For example, some scientist wish to prove that God doesn't exist with their research and theory but what they only prove most of the time is that it's the other way round!

As if God doesn't know that some men would try to do that. Of course, for everything you do God has already prepared an answer for you to find. The irony thing is you are in a way helping God to prove that He actually exist instead!

See, how wise God is. It's like playing chess with God. The only problem is you'll never ever win! For every move you make or plan God already has the answer. And no matter what you do or try to do you'll always end up being checkmate! Duh!

Most of the time, man doesn't realize this. Just because God doesn't show himself doesn't mean He doesn't exist. There's a lot of ways you can know that God exist. In fact if you keep looking, keep studying, keep doing research you'll find Him. You will, if you look hard enough. Just by looking at yourself in the mirror you will see a miracle. You will realize that you're a miracle from a speck of sperm, you've grown to become a man or a woman. And then you study, work, get married and have children. The cycle continues. If that isn't a miracle then I'm not sure if you appreciate being born a human rather then an animal. Animal live by instinct but men live with a conscience. We can differentiate right from wrong. We can think. We have free will. We can choose. We can choose to believe if God exist. Do you want to forsake what God has given you?

See, how God has given you so much. But, to turn your back on Him. Then you'll only have yourself to blame. Stop pushing the blame on God. Most or rather all of the rubbish that's happening right now is all mankind doing. Did God ask you to go to war and kill each other for land, women, wealth? Of course not, stupid!

Earth is big enough for all of us. We create boundaries, not God!

We can share but we didn't. We can live together in peace but we choose not. One thing is for sure, we're all bloody stupid fools!

Enough said. God, give you brain so why not use it to think about what I have posted here today.

At the meantime, you might be interested to visit this site at >>

Could be an interesting reading.

Well, it's almost 1 am in the morning. Time to sleep and ponder...

P.S. Sufism is a man who prefers to live alone with God rather then living with
the poverty that man created for himself

Jose quits Chelsea!

I'm feeling sad and disappointed with Jose for quitting Chelsea so abruptly. When I first heard the news in the morning I thought that they had made a mistake or somehow that is was all joke. Well, it's a cruel joke alright.

After some poor results in the EPL and the Champion League somehow, something happen and Jose is out of Chelsea FC. All Chelsea fans are really sad and disappointed. Add to that there will be a big game at the weekend with Manchester United.

Avram Grant took over from Jose and really I'm pointing my finger at him for the reason that Jose finally decided to quit. Abramovich the Chelsea billionaire owner wanted too much too soon. He should know better then to meddle in the footballing side of the business. He should just let Jose do his job.

I always thought that Jose would leave someday but didn't really think it would be so early in the season at that. I respected the way Jose took Chelsea to the top 4 consistently and sadly enough in this day of age results matter most even though he has won everything there is in English football. What a sad sad day for Chelsea FC.

I just hope that Chelsea FC will recover from this major setback and get back to playing winning football. If Avram Grant can't do a Jose then he should also be sack and let a better manager to take over. Chelsea should keep the winning formula that Jose had used in his football philosophy.

I thought that Chelsea would win the EPL this season 2007/2008 but with Jose out I'm not so sure anymore. If Chelsea can continue being the top 4 then I'll be happy. No less then that!

Avram Grant had be warned by Alex Ferguson and if he can't do better then Jose then he should give way to a better well-renown proven manager. Hey, Abramovich should know better. He brought in Jose in the first place.

Well, let's just see what's going to happen from now own. No matter what though, I'll always be a Chelsea FC fan!!

Go Chelsea go!

France itching for War?

If France, think poking at Iran ass is a fun way to provoke for a fight then it certainly work. I think now Iran would realize that it should get nuclear just in case, France decide to rally the other European nation to follow U.S. path like it did on Iraq.

As if, the mess in Iraq made by Bush isn't enough.

I don't know what's wrong with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner when he said that to the media without thinking the repercussion of his words.

Iran has repeatedly denied that it's aiming to build a nuclear weapon plant so why don't the world stop at that and stop poking their nosy nose at Iran domestic affairs.

Let me tell you an example of why France should shut up and mind it's own business.

I have this personal experience of getting into a fight with somebody when I was a little boy. When, I mean little I mean little.

This big guy at school thought that since I was little he could beat me in a fight. Heh, he didn't really know I have a violent tendency even though I was just maybe, nine years old. In short, I beat the hell crap out of him. He's the one who even ask me if I wanted to stop fighting. I agreed and he went away with a bloody nose. Come to think of it, it's kind of funny that someone would said that. Maybe, I think when I fight I won't stop until my opponent goes down.

Then his idiotic friend came looking for me thinking that he can do better. At first, I didn't want to fight him as I was playing soccer with my friend after the fight. But, he kept asking me for a fight and even kick me. Well, he really made me freaking angry after that and so I ran shouting after him like a mad man and he cowardly run away from me!

What an idiot. These idiots think just because, I'm a small quiet boy they can win a fight with me. Queer little me. Well, my friends thought they will wait for me outside of school with their gang. But, I didn't see a hoot!

So, in a single day I beat those two idiots and since then, nobody disturb me at school. And, the rest of my school days was fun and with little problem.

My point? That, stop asking for a fight. You'll never know what gonna happen!!

Okay, got to go. Think about it.

Here's a link to the article.

Good day!

Blog - Tech Gadget Addicts

Yesterday, I sign up to Asia.cnet.com free blog service.

I decided to try it out. It's a pretty simple set-up with all the basic blogging tools. You only have 50mb of space but I guess it should be kind of enough.

I don't intend to blog that much there but I guess if I like to talk anything about tech stuff once awhile I might blog there. Heh, I guess a little exposure for my main blog here should be good enough right?

Asia.cnet.com caters to the Asian regional area unlike their big sister at Cnet.com base in the U.S.

I visited both of this site almost everyday for the latest tech, gadget news. It's my main source of information. I like to watch and read about products that I might be interested to buy or just for drooling purposes. Well, I can't buy all of the stuff right (money no enough!) ?

Before, I bought my current ipod I had done research on the product from Apple main site, Cnet.com and Cnet Asia. Also, through other sites I found via Google. I like to read up on the specs and see what it can do. I prefer the whole package for a product. For example, instead of buying the nano, mini or 30gb ipod, I just bought the 80gb so that I don't have to worry about space. In fact, I can put about anything in it. All to my heart desires.

Of course, nothing beats owning and holding one in your hand. Once, I got the product I wanted, I'll play and fiddle with it for a couple of weeks until I'm satisfied I can't do anything more to it. I'll make sure it's test to the limit. Hey, if you bought it for almost SGD$600 won't you do the same?

Right now, I'm aiming to buy the Apple iPhone. There's a whole lot of things, I'm planning to do with it. I know there's already the iPod iTouch and the iPod Classic. But, I think the iPhone is a different and interesting product to own. I want to try out it's keyboard. I'm not really interested in it's ipod features as I've already own an ipod. The new ipod nano looks good with it's video capability but it's only if you want to buy it as a gift for your niece or for your girlfriend etc.

As I've said before, I do hope by the time it reach Asia it's feature had been improved. For example the ability to taking video with the 2.0 camera. To send mms and 3G. But, I very much prefer a bigger memory space. An 8Gb iPhone is pretty small. I can freaking fill it up in a few hours!

Yeah, I know. I already have the ipod but, if your iPhone has a bigger space won't it mean you can bring more on the road?

I think the battery could be a problem. But, I think, I'm a basic user and Singapore isn't that big a country. You won't run out of battery power especially if what they say about the iPhone battery being able to last longer then any other normal smartphone out there is true.

Yesterday, I type on the Asia.cnet blog that I haven't yet dream about having an iPhone in my sleep. But, today in my afternoon nap I dream that I bought it from my friend!

That's the first time actually that I had dream of a tech gadget that I really wanted. I think so. Did I once dream of getting my own electric guitar when I was young? Which I actually did by the way.

One thing for sure. I can't freaking wait for the iPhone to reach Singapore and for me to being able to at least have a closer look at it!

I can't waaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiittt!

Well, that's it for today. Oh, by the way. Today, my friend ask me to bring down the 2 ghost videos that I had posted here and on Youtube. It seems that someone had maybe complained about the video and had decided to tell us to bring it down if not we will be reported to the police.

I'm not sure if it's really true. But, before anything happened I decided to delete it. Anyway, the video isn't that clear anyway. Unless, I have a better video with a better view of the ghost, I'll then put it up. I think the management prefer to keep the ghost story under rap to avoid giving bad name to the condominium. Be careful, if you buy or rent a house anywhere as there may be reason why the main owner decided to move house. Maybe, because it's haunted!!

Beware and take care.

Chow and yes, I manage to fast for the day without any problem. Yeah!

My Virus week

Finally, today. I think I manage to delete a couple of viruses, spy ware from my pc. For a week, I've been grappling with this problem. I scanned with AVG spy ware and virus free software. It took me almost a week of keeping at it.

I don't know how I got it. Could be my nephew inadvertently downloading it or my brother. Of course, nobody admit it. But, slowly I manage to find all these pesky virus and deleted it. Argg.. my life been a mess this week. I couldn't do all the 'normal' surfing. Everyday, I "On" my pc and keep scanning to find the stupid virus who seems to be able to escape the scan.

Today, my friend was supposed to borrow me his Norton Anti-virus software but he didn't reply my call and somehow today, the virus seems to have been found and deleted. I'll have to wait and see how it goes. So far, so good though.

My advice to you guys is to download AVG free anti-virus software. The good part is that it's free and also you'll be able to update the software every time there's new updates. This is done automatically. They also have free Firewall and Spy ware software.

New virus are created almost everyday. Attacks are almost daily. I look at my firewall log and there's already 38502 intrusions!

I'm using ZoneAlarm Firewall software. It's pretty good and you can get it for free too. Of course the paid version is better if you're interested.

All in all I have a complete set of security suites for my pc but still some viruses are still able to get through. Most of the time though it's more of a human error then anything else. This is my pc but my brother and sometime my nephews when they come over, I let them play online game with it. That's when sometime these kids just surf all over the place and if you don't check out on them they could be doing something dangerous. Like the other day, I found out that one of my nephew wanted to fill up a form to purchase something online!

She almost gave up her phone number and address without anybody knowing it. Sometime, when a window ask them to click "Ok" to download 'stuff' they'll think it's okay and just click 'yes' without any thought.

Parents or guardian should always check out on their kids when they use the pc. As, you never know. I have always remind my brother and nephews to not just click 'yes' to everything. I keep telling them to just close the pop-ups and click 'no' to everything instead!

It has been a crazy week but I hope things are back to normal again by next week.

Of course, next week the Fasting month will start on Thursday or technically speaking it should be on Wednesday night. We follow our Islamic calendar.

Well, got to go. Have a nice day!

Bin Laden talking nonsense

MohammadFauziT... - Owning My Own Life!
500 Posts, last published on Sep 6, 2007

Hey, I saw that I already posted 500 post at my blogger Dashboard. So, today, this would be my 501 post!

Wow! 500 post. Didn't really think much about it until today. Seems like it's been a long long time since the first day I started my own blog. I think blogging really suits me. I have been writing things for a while since I was in School. Mostly, personal 'creative' stuff of course. But, blogging really gave me the avenue for an outlet of my personal thinking about life as a general.

And share it with the world out there!

I like it. I also have a lot to say. My favorite topics is religion, tech gadget, soccer, philosophy on life and a whole lot of other craps you might not be interested. But, hey who cares?

I think blogging is therapeutic for me. Sometime, I read something I don't like or agree with and where else can I talk about it but in my own blog?

For instance, today I read about Osama bin Laden latest video release. I haven't seen his video yet or wait a minute,.. I haven't seen all of his videos actually. I only read what he talks about in the news. Most of the time, I think he's talking rubbish!

Why? Because, for one thing I don't agree with him is the killing of innocent lives. I know, where he might be coming from but, Islam really forbid it. And, true jihad is finish with the death of the prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. The greater jihad Muhammad always proclaimed is against man own 'naf' or inner self struggle.

Another factor is that we don't 'invite'/force people (like what the Taliban are doing) or rather unbelievers to join Islam. Our prophet Muhammad had already did the ground work. Islam spread far and wide during time of peace rather then during war and conquest. More and more people joined Islam not because we want or urge them to but because they want to. God gave men brain so that he may used it and use his own judgment. God gave men the Al-Quran so that he may read it and learn the truth. So that he may choose for himself what's right.

I'm pretty sure, if anyone tried forcing others to join Islam they certainly won't!

It's just common sense right!?

Listen. God, doesn't need you. YOU need God!

If you're interested to join Islam, that's fine. If not, then that's fine by me too. Free will.

Can you blame God if you don't believe that Islam is the true religion and you doesn't believe in HIM like the atheist does?

All men, will be judge. Each of us answers to HIM. Muslims as a whole knows this. That's our main agenda. To pray 5 times daily. To give alms. To do good etc.

If you really look at it, there's no reason why Muslim should go to war. Even though, yeah, looking at the 'openness' of the world right now with gay marriages, total lack of good moral values etc. But, there's no need to take arms. We can fight with debates or whatever peaceful means there is. Sometime, we may win and sometime we will lose. That's just part and parcel of life.

Muhammad, once was given the chance by Jibril a.s. to destroy a tribe by flattening it with a mountain because they pelted him with stones and was sworn away when he preach about Islam. But, he declined saying that they (the tribe) didn't know any better.

You know, Muhammad with God's will can conquer the whole world without lifting a finger but he won't. He can amass wealth and gold. He can conquer and build magnificent castles for himself but he didn't. He didn't die living the world with useless man-made rubbish. He died living mankind with the greatest gift a man could get. And that is the Holy Al-Quran and his Hadith.

Al-Quran is much more valuable then all the 7 wonders added together!

No one in this world can replicate the Al-Quran!

Much like the story of King Solomon. That when he died he wanted to show the world that in his hand, he holds nothing. When we die we don't bring back wealth or gold to the afterlife. We will only be judge by what we have done with the time given to us when we were alive. That's all that matters to us.

Of course, all this problem can be trace back when the Israelis with the help of the infidels return back to Jerusalem. Without this major problem being solved with the Palestinian which happens to be Muslims (if they aren't Muslims I don't think there will be any Islamic terrorist, they would be just called terrorist!) all this senseless war will be over sooner.

Right now, it's not a problem about Islam. Islam is just used as a tool to garner support for what they are doing militarily. What we are looking at right now is the stealing of lands illegally by the Israel over the Palestinian. And to make matter worst the U.S. and the British is helping them!

No wonder, most of the Islamic world hate the U.S. and the British. Duh!

Look, I don't really care about the so-called unbeliever or the infidels. It's none of my concern. For them their religion and for me is my religion. I can get along with anyone regardless of race, religions, class or whatever.

When I look at others, I see them as what they are as a person. Of course, our preference differs. But, that's what make life so interesting. We learn from each other. We take the good and throw away the bad. It's up to us to make the world a better place. For starters, let just stop all this war and start living as a human being on this one small planet we called earth.

Leave religion especially Islam out of this. The problem might be complicated but I'm pretty sure it could be resolved before we kill each other senselessly. We are not animal. We are human beings with brain. We can think. If we use our brain and simple common sense we might get somewhere. Just might.

Next week, it will be the start of the Holy Fasting month. It's a 'magical' month that only Muslims will know. You've got to be a Muslim to understand what the fasting month is all about. It's the month of the Al-Quran. It's the month of goodness. The month of faith. The month of bountiful. A month of seeking goodness and forgiveness from God. There's no other religion that allocate a special month for the billions of Muslim to unite as a whole. This is the time we unite and pray under one God.

When the Muslims unite the whole world tremble...

It made me think about Islam as a whole. It made me feel a part of the world community. I might be alone here in this room sitting typing this. But, I'm really not alone. I'm a part of the Islamic community. We are one and together we will be strong.

You might be in New York, Iran, Iraq, Malaysia, Dubai, England, Liverpool, Bosnia, Indonesia, Canada, Holland, Saudi Arabia or Palestine. But, Islam bind us together.

We are Muslims.
