Germany condemns Malaysian student who gave Nazi salute at graduation

Germany's Embassy in Kuala Lumpur has condemned a Malaysian man who gave the Nazi salute during his graduation ceremony.
Responding to a viral social media post which has stirred debate in the South-East Asian country this week, the Embassy said it was "shocked" to learn of the student's actions.
"Considering the terrible suffering that was brought upon the world during World War II by the Nazi regime of Germany, the German Embassy unequivocally condemns any show of support for a regime responsible for Genocide and would expect the Malaysian Government and University authorities to do the same," it said in a statement.
A student of the University of Malaysia in the eastern city of Kota Kinabalu posted the photo on his Facebook page, accompanied by a caption written in Malay praising Adolf Hitler.
The man added that he "stands in solidarity with Gaza due to my anger, hatred and desire for revenge against the Jewish people".
A spokesperson for the University of Malaya Sabah said that the graduate did not reflect the views of the university and that incidents like it would not be allowed to take place in future.
The country's foreign ministry has not commented on the matter.
Muslim-majority Malaysia is a staunch defender of the Palestinians' cause and does not have diplomatic ties with Israel.
Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has a long history of making remarks that are derogatory towards Jews.
While speaking at Cambridge University earlier this year, Mr Mahathir said that he had Jews who were "very good friends", but that "they are not like the other Jews, that's why they are my friends".
He has previously said that Jews "rule the world by proxy" and that he is "glad to be labelled anti-Semitic", defending his stance as being part of exercising free speech.
Asked to clarify his anti-Semitic comments during a forum at Columbia University this year, Mr Mahathir asked, "why is it that I can't say something against the Jews when a lot of people say nasty things about me, about Malaysia, and I didn't protest?"
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg publicly censured Mr Mahathir in late 2018 for having "form" in making anti-Semitic comments, after the Malaysian leader criticised the Morrison Government's consideration of moving Australia's embassy from Tel Aviv to West Jerusalem.
"[Mr Mahathir] banned Schindler's List as a movie being shown, though it showed the amazing story of a righteous gentile who saved many people from persecution," Mr Frydenberg said at the time.

When Germany won the 2014 football World Cup, a Malaysian politician upset many by tweeting "WELL DONE … LONG LIVE HITLER."
Malaysia is also home to a fringe subculture of neo-Nazi Malay supremacists, who endorse an end to immigration and the establishment of an ethnostate exclusively for Malay Muslims.
A punk show featuring Malay supremacist bands was cancelled in March this year after pressure from activists.

He chides some Malaysian Muslims for leaning towards Arab culture as they become more conservative
JOHOR BARU • The Sultan of Johor has called on Malays not to discard their unique culture, saying he was disturbed that some people want to stop local Muslim men and women from shaking hands in the traditional greeting when they meet.
Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar said he was sticking to "my customs and traditions as a Malay because I'm born Malay".
"If there are some of you who wish to be an Arab and practise Arab culture, and do not wish to follow our Malay customs and traditions, that is up to you. I also welcome you to live in Saudi Arabia," he told The Star newspaper in an interview.
"That is your right, but I believe there are Malays who are proud of the Malay culture. At least I am real and not a hypocrite and the people of Johor know who their ruler is," he said. The ruler was commenting on the tendency of some Malaysian Malays to lean towards Arab culture in the past few years as they become more conservative Muslims.
Sultan Ibrahim said that he preferred to use terms like "Hari Raya" instead of "Eid al-Fitr", or "buka puasa" instead of "iftar". The latter are Arabic words with the same meaning.
"I have been using these Malay terms since I was a child... I have no intention of replacing these terms with Arabic," he said.

The Sultan said religious faith was not based on external criteria such as clothing to display one's relationship with God. He said that "what is in the heart and mind is more important".

Bellamy salute


"Flag salute" redirects here. For the poem by Esther Pope, see Flag Salute.

Children performing a salute to the flag of the United States, 1941.
The Bellamy salute is a palm-out salute described by Francis Bellamy, the author of the American Pledge of Allegiance, as the gesture which was to accompany the pledge. During the period when it was used with the Pledge of Allegiance, it was sometimes known as the "flag salute". Both the Pledge and its salute originated in 1892. Later, during the 1920s and 1930s, Italian fascists and Nazi Germans adopted a salute which was very similar, and which was derived from the Roman salute, a gesture that was popularly (albeit erroneously) believed to have been used in ancient Rome.[1] This resulted in controversy over the use of the Bellamy salute in the United States. It was officially replaced by the hand-over-heart salute when Congress amended the Flag Code on December 22, 1942.

The inventor of the Bellamy salute was James B. Upham, junior partner and editor of The Youth's Companion.[2] Bellamy recalled that Upham, upon reading the pledge, came into the posture of the salute, snapped his heels together, and said "Now up there is the flag; I come to salute; as I say 'I pledge allegiance to my flag,' I stretch out my right hand and keep it raised while I say the stirring words that follow."[2]
The Bellamy salute was first demonstrated on October 12, 1892, according to Bellamy's published instructions for the "National School Celebration of Columbus Day":
At a signal from the Principal the pupils, in ordered ranks, hands to the side, face the Flag. Another signal is given; every pupil gives the flag the military salute -- right hand lifted, palm downward, to align with the forehead and close to it. Standing thus, all repeat together, slowly, “I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands; one Nation indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.” At the words, “to my Flag,” the right hand is extended gracefully, palm upward, toward the Flag, and remains in this gesture till the end of the affirmation; whereupon all hands immediately drop to the side.
— From The Youth’s Companion, 65 (1892): 446.

In the 1920s, Italian fascists adopted what has been called the Roman salute to symbolize their claim to have revitalized Italy on the model of ancient Rome. A similar ritual was adopted by the German Nazis, creating the Nazi salute. Controversy grew in the United States on the use of the Bellamy salute given its similarity to the fascist salutes. School boards around the country revised the salute to avoid this similarity. There was a counter-backlash from the United States Flag Association and the Daughters of the American Revolution, who felt it inappropriate for Americans to have to change the traditional salute because aliens had later adopted a similar gesture.[3]
From 1939 until the attack on Pearl Harbor, detractors of Americans who argued against intervention in World War II produced propaganda using the salute to lessen those Americans' reputations. Among the anti-interventionist Americans was aviation pioneer Charles Lindbergh. Supporters of Lindbergh's views would claim that Lindbergh did not support Adolf Hitler and that pictures of him appearing to do the Nazi salute were actually pictures of him using the Bellamy salute. In his Pulitzer Prize winning biography Lindbergh (1998), author A. Scott Berg explains that interventionist propagandists would photograph Lindbergh and other isolationists using this salute from an angle that left out the American flag, so it would be indistinguishable from the Hitler salute to observers.[4]

On June 22, 1942, at the urging of the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Congress passed Public Law 77-623, which codified the etiquette used to display and pledge allegiance to the flag. This included use of a palm-out salute, specifically that the pledge "be rendered by standing with the right hand over the heart; extending the right hand, palm upward, toward the flag at the words ‘‘to the flag’’ and holding this position until the end, when the hand drops to the side." Congress did not discuss or take into account the controversy over use of the salute. Congress later amended the code on December 22, 1942 when it passed Public Law 77-829, stating among other changes, that the pledge "be rendered by standing with the right hand over the heart."[5]
