KUALA LUMPUR: Twitter has deleted one of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s tweets that he initially marked as “glorification of violence.”
The tweet has been replaced by the message: “This tweet violated the Twitter Rules.”
Earlier, Dr. Mahathir has said that Muslims have a “right to punish” the French for their past “massacres” as violence continues to reap its ugly head in France, adding however that Muslims have not taken revenge on them. this way.
He posted on Twitter on Thursday (October 29), just hours after a knife attack outside Nice, France, he saw three people killed and others injured.
Muslims have the right to be angry and kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past. But in general, Muslims have not applied the law of “tit for tat”. Muslims do not. The French shouldn’t. Instead, the French should teach their people to respect other people’s feelings, “he wrote on his blog, chedet, with a similar text also shared on his Twitter account. chedetofficial.
“Since you have blamed all Muslims and the Muslim religion for what an angry person did, Muslims have the right to punish the French. The boycott cannot compensate for the evils committed by the French during all these years, “he added in his letter that is addressed to French President Emmanuel Macron.
In the post, Dr. Mahathir also described Macron as “uncivilized” and “primitive” for appearing guilty to Islam and its believers after a teacher was beheaded earlier this month in Paris after he used cartoons depicting Prophet Muhammad in class as a teaching material during a civics lesson.
“It does not agree with the teachings of Islam. But regardless of what religion you profess, angry people kill. The French throughout their history have killed millions of people. Many were Muslims, ”said Dr. Mahathir, where he also claimed that the West is trying to impose its values on others by force.
“Generally, the West no longer adheres to its own religion. They are Christians in name only. That is your right.
“But they must not disrespect the values of others, the religion of others. It is a measure of the level of your civilization to show this respect, ”he wrote.
France’s Junior Digital Affairs Minister Cédric O said he spoke to Twitter’s country head to immediately suspend Dr. Mahathir’s official account.
“If not, Twitter would be an accessory to murder,” he tweeted.
