PAS' (Paksa Awak Suci) conundrum in supporting Taliban but without violence By P Ramasamy

Cruelty of PAS (Paksa Awak Suci) Oops Taliban

Malaysiakini : ADUN SPEAKS | I find it terribly confusing about PAS' exact ideological position on the Taliban in Afghanistan?

On the one hand, PAS supports the Taliban because it is an Islamic organisation. But on the other hand, it wants to distance itself from the violence of the Taliban. How is this possible? Isn't this hypocrisy on the part of PAS, an Islamic party in Malaysia.

How can you support an organisation that has been internationally labelled as terrorist but yet say that violence cannot be condoned? PAS is like an eel, and it wants to show its fish-like head to the fish and its snake-like tail to the snake. PAS might have a religious, Islamic label, but for all intents and purposes, it is a political party that depends on votes during elections.

Shorn of the religious image, it is just an ordinary political party that survives on the basis of its Islamic credentials.
