Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

nation.
The Election Commission (EC) has announced that the
highly-anticipated 13th general election will take place on May 5, while
the nomination of candidates will be held on April 20. EC chairperson Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof announced
the dates after a special meeting at the headquarters in Putrajaya
today, exactly a week after Parliament was dissolved. This provides for a campaign period of 15 days - the longest in over three decades. Advance polling is fixed for April 30, for the police, armed forces and EC staff and their spouses to cast their ballots. Voters can check details of their polling centre with effect from April 15. The announcement was telecast 'live' by several television stations, which began the broadcast at 12.34pm.State
and parliamentary polls will take place simultaneously except in
Sarawak, where the next state polls are not due till 2016. Some
13.2 million Malaysians are eligible to vote this time around, with
first-time voters making up about 2.6 million of this number. Of this number, around 270,000 are postal voters from the army and the police force. The election will cost the commission about RM400 million, Abdul Aziz said."We have checked and decided on May 5 as the date for elections, because the date is free from any important events," he said. He also said that the weather forecast for the polling and nomination days is projected to be "good". EC not at fault for 'dirty' elections Abdul Aziz defended the EC against allegations that the polls will be the "dirtiest" in the country's history. "If
the election becomes dirty, it is not because of the EC. It is the
political parties and its supporters who must observe the code of
conduct," he stressed, and hopes that the election will be among the
best in the history of the nation. GE13 is widely anticipated to be the closest in the nation’s electoral history. BN, led by Najib Abdul Razak, is moving aggressively to win back a two-thirds majority in Parliament, which it lost in 2008. Pakatan
Rakyat, under Anwar Ibrahim, is aiming to extend the ‘political
tsunami’ of 2008 into more states, especially in the south, even as it
gears up for another push into Putrajaya. In 2008, BN won 140 seats in the Dewan Rakyat, while Pakatan’s tally was 82. Five
of the 12 contested state legislatures went to Pakatan, which formed
the state government for the first time in Penang, Perak (although it
subsequently reverted to BN control), Selangor and Kedah. PAS retained
its stronghold of Kelantan. BN won 50.27 percent of the popular vote, while Pakatan took 46.75 percent.
