‘I don’t know what’s wrong with people sometimes. Hitler is part of history and the German team fought like how he did,’ said Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin.

A Malaysian MP, who is awesome to the max, has been attacked for Tweeting “Long live Hitler” after the German win over Brazil.

Daily Mail:

Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin posted on the microblogging site via the Twitter handle @MyKinabatangan: ‘WELL DONE..BRAVO…LONG LIVE HITLER.’

The tweet in the early hours of this morning went viral and internet users have condemned Bung for his reference to the Nazi dictator and demanded he issue an apology.

But in his subsequent tweets to his 21,000 followers, Bung, a self-professed fan of the team, seemed unrepentant.

The original tweet.

He re-tweeted the abuse he received – when one user asked how he manged to get elected he replied ‘coz I’m better than u’, while he told another user to ‘get lost.’

Today he insisited he was commending the German football national team for ‘fighting like’ Hitler in their 7-1 win against Brazil in the semi-finals of the World Cup.

‘I don’t know what’s wrong with people sometimes. Hitler is part of history and the German team fought like how he did,’ Bung told English news portal The Star Online.

The Sabah MP also insisted that his tweet was ‘just for fun’.

‘I think people nowadays should transform their mentality. Whatever I tweet, people hit me.

Bung Moktar seemed to enjoy the controversy, continuing to repeat the phrase while mocking his critics.

‘They are not hitting me because of Hitler, but because I am Bung Moktar,’ added the Umno supreme council member.

German laws forbid Nazi symbols, denial of the Holocaust and public expressions of support for Hitler.

And today Germany’s Ambassador to Malaysia said the comparison was ‘unacceptable’.

‘While we appreciate the admiration for the German football team, we strongly reject the unacceptable allusion to the fascist regime of Adolf Hitler,’ Michael said.
