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."
Ex-judge warns Chinese of backlash for 'betrayal' 2 Tim 1:7:
PM Najib Razak, whose government has been rejected by 53 percent of the
people, seems to be using a cheap ‘kampung' trick to bring about what
he claims is national reconciliation. He lets the ultras in Umno
and their supporters say the most provocative and racist things about
ethnic Chinese and Indian citizens, and when they have said all that
they want, he would come out with a vapid statement to the effect that
he is aspires to be the leader of all Malaysians. Why are the
Umno warlords running amuck? They fear that their days of nepotism,
freeloading and rent-collecting are numbered. And since they have never
been accustomed to hard work, they find this most disturbing.
Annonxxx: Court of Appeal judge Mohd Noor Abdullah said, "For the Malays, the pantang larang (taboo) is to be betrayed, because when they are betrayed, they will react and when they react, their dendam kesumat tidak tersudah-sudah (wrath will be endless)." Mohd Noor, are you God? Only the Almighty God can pronounce something or some events to be inevitable and endless.
Hmmmmmmmm: I dread to think of the judgments that Mohd Noor had made when non-Malays appeared before him in court. Even
if the Chinese have economic power, etc (which is not true by the way),
it is no business of his or anybody else who they vote for. Why should
they be labelled as ungrateful just because they did not choose BN? Why
don't we go further and cancel all future elections since everybody is
supposed to vote BN anyway, otherwise they will suffer a backlash? Anonymous #06188481:
I don't understand Mohd Noor. Both my wife and I are Chinese and we are
Christians. My wife voted for Khalid Samad in Shah Alam, while I voted
for Siti Mariah Mahmud in Kota Raja. Both candidates are Malays and
Muslims. Both are from PAS. Please tell me how I can be considered a racist and whom have I betrayed? Can someone out there enlighten me? We
voted for MCA and Umno for many GEs ago until it doesn't make sense to
us anymore. You see, political parties come and go. My final loyalty is
not to any political parties, it's the Federal Constitution. Cala:
Mohd Noor is using race and racism to camouflage a failed state as a
result of corruption, rent-seeking and abuse of power by the ruling
regime. It immoral acts did not go unnoticed by the masses. No matter
how much he tries to paint otherwise, facts remain facts. This
ex-appeal court judge is a suitable candidate to replace Perkasa chief
Ibrahim Ali. The former is equally illogical, irrational and racist in
orientation. I am wondering aloud how Najib is going to proceed with his national reconciliation process given this kind of input. Dpillai: I am utterly shocked that in this time and age a man of Mohd Noor's standing can make such remarks. If
he is found to have actually made such remarks, he must be held
accountable as he himself was reported to have said: "The law must be
implemented tooth and nail and anybody who talks about racial
disharmony, creating friction among one another - last time there was
ISA - now charge them because the sedition law says anybody who create
ill-will among the communities, you can be charged, you can be
convicted." The PM should make his stand on the former judge's
statement known, especially since this man is reported to have also sat
on Umno's disciplinary board. Chee Hoe Siew:
Here we go again, another person under Umno's payroll trying to
instigate 513 (May 13) to threaten Malaysians. He should be investigated
for sedition and if found guilty, locked up for good. Malaysia is
better off without this kind of people. Aries46:
I felt that Mohd Noor is not worthy of my comment. He is a sorry excuse
for a judge and a disgrace to the Malays, who are generally respected
as non-racist, rational, honest and God-fearing Muslims. There
were many of these maggots during the corrupt racist's regime who not
only sold their souls but compromised the entire judiciary for personal
benefits. Many have fallen by the way and some are now crawling
out of the woodwork as their life of ill-gotten wealth and luxury is
threatened. I consider it a sin to honour such parasites with a rational
rebuttal. Speechless: Mohd Noor has shamed the
entire legal profession and the judiciary. What betrayal is he talking
about? Who have the Chinese betrayed? Let me remind this
brainless ex-judge that Malaysia does not belong to one race. It belongs
to all Malaysians. The only betrayal is to disrespect democracy and the
rights of its citizens. Mohd Noor has betrayed all the citizens of this country by spewing highly seditious comments and for threatening the Chinese. Hear this, Mohd Noor, threats do not work. Your comments will only deepen the resentment towards bigots like you. Shame of you! Changeagent: Another
day, another bash-the-Chinese-bogeyman session. How did the Chinese
community betray anyone by refusing to vote for a corrupt and
incompetent BN regime? And where are the supporting facts or
evidence that the Chinese are plotting to seize political power? Isn't
it proof that the community doesn't want political power when they
overwhelmingly rejected MCA and Gerakan, and strongly voiced out against
any intentions for DAP to join the BN ruling coalition? Mohd
Noor's statement is both misleading and seditious - the Chinese have not
rejected any hand of friendship by the Malays, but rather BN's
race-based polarisation, mismanagement of the country and corrupt ways. IQ900: Can anyone tell me: Must the Chinese vote only for BN, otherwise they will face a backlash? TehTarik: The number of reader comments is a record for Malaysiakini. So far 811 comments and over 99 percent are critical of this ex-judge. They
tell us how much the people hate such ultra-racist statements from this
Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) adviser cum ex-judge. He
seems to have joined the ranks of the Ku Klux Klan.
