on 08th january 2008 president of Maldives, Al Usthaaz Maumoon Abdul Gayom was greeting his supporters on a campaign trip to haa alif atoll hoarafushi island when a 20 year old guy (mohamed murushid) took out a kitchen knife wrapped in the maldivian national flag, said 'allahu akbar' and tried to stab the president.But a 16 year old boy scout (mohamed jaisham) saw this and prevented him from stabbing the president. wooohooo! this is amazing. jaisham was injured (it went through his left hand while trying to hold the knife) but the president was unhurt."thanks to mohamed jaisham and allah!" said gayoom. and he also said..."differences of opinion between us doesnt mean we have to attack each other or kill each other, the political parties should also be more matured".Now this is clearly accusing the political parties of trying to kill him, without any evidence... i think the national unity alliance should not take this lightly. there is something fishy about this 'attack' (something...more than the tuna in the maldives' scout logo).
what was murushid's motives??..he said 'allaahu akbaru', but does that mean it has something to do with islamic extremism? now this is becoming common. they have created an enemy to point fingers at when anything bad happens. extremists are bad but...this is not their way, they will want to blow themselves up and get the houris instantly. i don't think it is political either. but maybe personal. maybe this guy Really really REALLY hates gayom. but why didn't the bodyguards notice him.and gayom is really careful about his life, he's not mahatma gandhi..we all know who this guy is.what ever.... time will tell, maybe.
Another big question is; was it the president he was attacking? was it the DRP zaeemu? or was it the chief scout or the general? or was it the highest authority and protector of the tenets of islam in maldives?
there are some interesting things about this event.especially about the boy scout part.Gayom is the chief scout of maldives.and robert baden powell, the founder of scouting died on 08th january 1941.and also galileo galilei died on that day in 1642 and elvis presley was born on the same day 1935.... not a bad day to die eh? ... but once again 'thanx to mohamed jaisham and allah!', he didn't.
btw.. i am thinking about taking this thing to another level:
:p

Golha Connor is the acid head..Terminator is the real hero who saves his ass all the time..
hey he is a kidd, i praise him, he did stand for his principles and values saved a life. He is a national hero, even though it had to be the despot gayyoom.
I think murshid is very selfish. He should have thought of the other citizens before attacking gayyoom. In my opinion he should have tried it on a Sunday. That way if he died we would get a much bigger holiday. So, I hope the next one to try this wud keep this in mind and that he dies
-AZWEEN-
I admire the kid, He did good.
As for the president, I think he was rather immature when he pointed his finger at the apposition.
As for Murshid who knows, who he was targetting? Maybe it was just one of the alter ego of Maumoon Abdul Gayoom and not necessarily all.
Although I wonder if he would just go for the one when he could get all in one go?
