LUMUT: Malaysian troops are ready to serve in Jerusalem, not for war but to ensure peace and stability in Palestine, said Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein.

“Whatever action we take is not to do battle, but to ensure peace and stability in the region, to ensure there is no turbulence and to ensure the image of Islam is not tarnished by the jaundiced perception of irresponsible quarters,” he said.
