Violence! Violence! Violence! - the Dictator Golhaboa's dirty deals

DO Editorial
"Violence! Violence! Violence!" When those three lethal words left Dictator Gayoom's lips during that now infamous interview, there were some among our people who did wonder if the protest was all about violence. Now, two years later, the realization of those words have come to fruition. Now, we are wiser as to why those words oozed so smoothly out of the Dictator's lips. Violence is what he knows. Violence is what he practices. Violence is what he will resort to in the future. more

One Hajj Equals Hundred Hajjs : Golhaa Is 'Definitely' The Boa

Do News Brief
Male' – Reliable sources within the regime are reporting that Maldives Dictator 'Golhaabo' has decided to go to Hajj again this year. The sources said that he will be accompanied by a huge contingent of 25 people, most of whom will be his private bodyguards. Rumour has that Golhaabo is going to pray to Allah to grant him one more term, he was advised to do so by his palmist. What is astonishing is that this trip will cost us just over 350,000 dollars, and that is a modest estimate, since there is no telling how much the 'Demented One' will spend on his shopping. This is enough for more than 100 Maldivians to go to Hajj. Some fear that he maybe taking hard cash with him, say a couple of million dollars, to stash in a Saudi 'Royal' Bank, in case he has to flee the country in the near future. "This is waste of public money. In Islam, you are required to go to Hajj once, if u can afford it." said Sheik Moosa, from Himendhoo. "I don't know how many times he has been to Hajj", he concluded. "Elhaa hajjah gossa filaanee kan neyge.. Dhen TV aai radio in govaanee avahaara vejjeyey... kihaa salhi... [ the bastard will go to Hajj and probably disappear.. TV and Radio will then report that he had passed away... how wonderful!]" said Ibrahim Saleem (Tubbs) from Hithadhoo.
