Malaysia's former PM urges Muslims to support Kerry

Meanwhile, Malaysia's former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad has also urged Muslims in America to vote for US Senator John Kerry in an open letter dated October 15 to America's Muslim community saying President Bush has been "the cause of the tragedies" across the Muslim world.

Mohamad retired last October mired in a controversy after telling a summit of Muslim leaders that "Jews rule the world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them."
