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."
Geronimo: Oh, for heaven's sake, let's call a spade, a spade. Utusan Malaysia is a racist paper, period. End of discussion.

From Malaysiakini Utusan picks on Kalimullah for defending AirAsia X CEO Victor Johan:Utusan Malaysia
is a Malay-language daily owned by Umno. When an ethnic Malay does not
buy, read or advertise in that particular newspaper, that does not
constitute that that person has forgotten his or her roots or is
questioning the rights of the Malay populace. When will these nitwits stop thinking that the majority Malays and their fellow non-Malays are fools?
Potassium:
I am trying to understand something: To criticise a fellow Malay is
considered to have forgotten one's roots? What is the logic here? A
wrong is a wrong, regardless of who committed the wrong? Are
these retards saying that just because they are of the same race and
same religion, a wrong should be deemed right? Only when the wrong is
committed by another race with a different religion will it be deemed a
wrong? What kind of rubbish mentality is this? If this is so, then these people are unable to differentiate right from wrong.
Kookie:
What is the measure of a patriotic Malay? Malays who project
intelligence, concern for the country, courage to speak up and seek
justice for Malaysians, or Malays who still live like katak dibawah tempurong (ignorant) and inspired by those who lack intelligence, are corrupt and abuse the ethics of office? They are the true enemy of the Malays and Malaysia, I am proud to have
Malays like AirAsia X chief executive officer Azran Osman Rani, former
group editor-in-chief of New Straits Times Kalimullah Hassan, student
activist Adam Adli and all others like them. Jagara: I wouldn't even dignify this Utusan racists with a comment. It's a waste of time. They will never learn. More
and more Malaysians will just wise up to them, be disgusted with their
racially divisive antics, and dump them together with Umno and Prime
Minister Najib Abdul Razak, who are behind them. Kairos: It appears that any comment made against the content in Utusan
is equated as a comment against the Malay race. What is this? Some kind
of an inviolable oracle of the ‘Ketuanan Melayu' mindset or what? This
kind of journalistic posture is nothing short of ultra radicalism and
racial bigotry. By constantly portraying that the Malay race and privileges are under threat (which in reality is not), Utusan,
with the implicit backing of Umno, is playing the racial card. That
makes Najib's initiative to make Malaysia a leader of global moderation a
sham. What a hypocrite!
A4MSIA: Would more and
more Malay personalities supportive of Azran's view come out into the
open? It could trigger off a Malay tsunami.
Chipmunk: From day one, Utusan have always been bias when it comes to reporting news. Is Utusan so thick that they cannot see or think out of the box? Kalimullah only supported Azran because Azran did the right thing as a true Malaysian. What Utusan is
doing is to instill hatred among fellow Malaysians all because Umno and
former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad are only interested in their bank
accounts. So many things that was predicted before GE13 is not coming to pass. You can deny till the cows come home but Umno and Utusan are
racist organisations. To all Umno Malays, remember that your root is
from Indonesia and you too came to this country along with the other
main races. The only true bumiputeras are Orang Asli, so stop behaving as if this country only belongs to you.Louis:
When you look ugly and people commented fairly that you really are, do
not be upset. The commentator is merely telling the truth. Here, in this case, Azran is stating the truth and would it be not Islamic if he is forced to tell lies just to please Utusan? Azran is entitled to his opinion.
Mohamad Abdul Malik:
Well, boycotting budget airlines AirAsia just would not work. Not when
only your supporters come from the kampungs and the Felda schemes. Most
of these people do not travel as much as the urbanites. And
furthermore you want the people to pay more to MAS just because you
could not accept that more than 50 percent of the voters voted against
you? The more than 3.6 million Malays who voted for the opposition couldn't be bothered by the stupid call by Utusan. Never in the history of Malaysia do we have such garbage.
Hmmmmmmmm: What has the spat between AirAsia and Utusan got to do with the Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs)? Isn't
the role of Cuepacs to look after it's members' interests in so far as
their employment is concerned? How does the call to boycott AirAsia
benefit their members? It sounds like a case of some people who have nothing better to do, so they meddle in their neighbours' quarrels. Anonymous_3ee4: I
am a member of Cuepacs. How dare you call upon civil servants to
boycott AirAsia just because you don't like it. Don't you dare impose
your conditions on me.
4dpeople: Isn't everybody
entitled to their own opinions? As a daily, if you can spin any news at
your whim and fancies, why the need to get so upset with some others'
opinion that differs from you? There is no law that 100 percent of
Malays should stand behind your opinion. Why ask others to
boycott AirAsia? Are you the one who is forking out to pay their
airfare? Times like these, instead of using your head on how to cut
cost, you are asking people to boycott the budget airlines. Bodoh sungguh (how stupid). Since when did Utusan
become the daily for Malay struggle? If it is, then change your name to
‘Utusan Melayu'. Racist dailies like yours should have no place in our
beloved country. You are indeed an embarrassment to the 1Malaysia
concept.
Anonymous #44199885: I am surprised
that Perkasa and the other organisations continue to display unmitigated
racism considering that the two of the most prominent bigots ie Perkasa
vice-president Zulkifli Noordin and president Ibrahim Ali were voted
out by the Malay electorate. They must be either blind or plain stupid not to not able to read the mind of the Malays in GE13.
Democrat: Your boycott will only bring AirAsia prices down and MAS fares will go up. Be our guest.
Tan Kim Keong: Former Armed Forces Association president called on the Malays to unite against those who want to downplay Utusan's
struggle for the race. The truth is that all government institutions
and government-linked companies (GLCs) are headed by Malays and almost
100 percent staffed by Malays. What struggle is this? Why is
there still a struggle after 40 years of race-based affirmative policies
which are still being implemented and controlled by Umno? Did the
president and the likes of him ask these questions? Mushiro: Anyone who dare speak up against Utusan, the voice of Umno which pretends to champion the Malays, will be branded a traitor by the cronies. Utusan wants
the Malays to believe that only Umno will speak up for the Malays - not
PAS, not PKR. But the fact shows that Malays have given up on Umno.
Multi Racial:
There are three types of people who supports Umno - 1) The rural poor
who never fly; 2) The super-rich cronies who only fly business or first
class; 3) The friends of cronies who get free trips on cronies expenses. Either way, none of them have gone to the low-cost carrier terminal (LCCT) before. So much for the boycott.
