My Comments : I received the following via WhatsApp today:
MALAYSIA MUST WITHDRAW FROM RIMPAC 2024*

We, the undersigned, note that Malaysia plans to participate in Rim of the Pacific international maritime military exercise, or RIMPAC 2024, which will take place in and around the Hawaiian Islands from June 26 to August 2 and be hosted by the Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet.

We call on the Malaysian government to immediately withdraw from the RimPac 2024 military exercise to protest against the participation of the Israeli military in that exercise.

Israel is a rogue and pariah state. It’s actions against Palestinians for over 70 years and its current genocide in Gaza demonstrate a blatant disregard for international law and human rights.
.
We reiterate our call on the Malaysian government to immediately withdraw from the RimPac military exercise to drive home that message.

My Comments : Tempoh hari dia cakap macam ini:


Malaysia condemned and criticised continued Israeli aggression fuelling  ongoing genocide against Palestinian people.Zionist regime did not desire ceasefire, will not comply with international law“This brazen attack by Israel wipes out any hope towards peaceful solution human rights will continue to be trampled upon.“urge intn'l community to take stern action, hold Israel to task My Comments : Just main agak-agak ok, saya bayangkan scenario berikut.  
Lets say masa RIMPAC Naval Exercise dekat Hawaii itu, katakanlah kapal Israel komunikasi dengan kapal TLDM  "KD TLDM please confirm your direction and speed". Apa jawapan KD TLDM agaknya?
