No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" ā€œWhen 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 soldierā€
General Douglas MacArthur

" ā€œWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā€

ā€œIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā€
ā€œOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
ā€œThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā€
ā€œMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā€
ā€œThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

ā€œNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
ā€œIt 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."

The state of crime in Malaysia: Even the sick are not spared by robbers by J. D. Lovrenciear
Friday, July 05, 2013
The most recent incident where a Tan Sri shot and killed one of the many robbers who struck at two clinics in Kuala Lumpur is going viral on-line as the rakyat remain paralyzed with fear. As if reading about Cabinet Ministers and or their next-of-kin and even the top cop's family falling victim to crime is not enough, now we witness even clinics are easy targets for robbers these days.  A senior politician has also highlighted that even eateries have to throw in security guards to keep dining patrons away from robbers.

What is becoming of Malaysia Mr. Honorable Prime Minister, Mr. Honorable Home Minister and our Number One captain of the police force, pray tell us rakyat?  Or shall we just dismiss the clinic robbery as an isolated incident ā€“ never mind the fact that the robbers were on a robbing spree before the Tan Sri stopped them in their tracks on the second crime.

Where in the world do you hear of robbers even striking clinics? It looks like we may now have to ask even doctors to operate like banks with security vaulted doors. Or maybe, the Home Minister should direct the Health Minister to get doctors to station armed guards at the business premises just like pawnshop operators. And as for the sick, they perhaps have to snoop around to ensure the vicinity is free of potential robbers waiting to strike, before entering a clinic for emergency medical attention.

The clinic robbery incident therefore obviously hammers in the perception and in all likelihood the fact that our police force have lost the battle to curb crime.  Today, the force is reduced to chasing after those illusive robbers AFTER a crime has taken place. There is no crime prevention anymore that is working in Malaysia.

But only recently the rakyat got lambasted by the powers-that-be that crime is only a ā€œperceptionā€ problem. And of course, when the rakyat kept harping that crime was striking every nook and corner, the Opposition politicians got ticked of as the culprits ā€œpoliticizingā€ the situation.Hello, anyone at home in the government of Malaysia? Do you hear that even helpless sick patients are being robbed at clinics?  Next probably you will see the robbers strike private hospitals as only the rich and affordable would be there ā€“ No?

Let us get honest here. What if the robbers killed the Tan Sri? What if the bullets fired by the Tan Sri hit a citizen patient? What if the doctor died? Or are the powers that be going to shut us all up for ā€œimagining too muchā€ and slam us with the often quoted statement "the public is warned not to speculate"?Malaysians have now to ask themselves where and when the buck stops. It cannot go on and on like this as we now have witnessed the shocking incident of robbers even striking clinics and patients.

We need to know that the crime situation in Malaysia is no more on the crime prevention wave as practiced by countries bent on attaining the First-world status. Instead we have regressed to the low point of post-cime investigation. What use is it to Malaysians to be told that each time a crime has occurred and a report is lodged with the police, investigations will get going? Would we not be better off if a potential crime was nipped hence saving lives, properties and being freed of the mental and emotional torture that comes with a robbery, snatch theft or rape?

Not being able to protect the able citizen from crime is one thing; but now the expose is the police are not even able to protect the weak and infirm citizens seeking medical help. It is about time that the Home Minister and the Inspector General of Police ā€“ both appointed under the wish of the Honorable Prime Minister, made up their minds and announced which then is the national thrust and policy of the Police force ā€“ is it crime prevention or post-crime investigation?

If we are merely subscribing to a post-crime-investigation policy, then perhaps every commoner-citizen may have to carry parangs with them as they may not be in the league of Tan Sriā€™s licensed to have guns. Certainly, in view of the fundamental issues surrounding the state of public and citizensā€™ safety, the ball is the Prime Ministerā€™s court now. Will he maintain his trademark silence or will the citizens' hope be ignited with word from the Honorable leader of this nation?
