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."
Jihad Watch : Hillary knew from the beginning that this was a jihad terror attack from
al-Qaeda.
She knew it was a “planned attack — not a protest,” and then
she went before the world and said it was a protest over a video about
Muhammad, and had the filmmaker jailed. The most insidious aspect of
this whole disgraceful episode is that she — and the Obama
Administration as a whole — chose to blame the freedom of speech for the
killings of Ambassador Stevens and the others.
And that’s a sure sign
that they have the freedom of speech in their gunsights. Sharp Questions From Jim Jordan About Night of Attack,” New York Times, October 22, 2015 (From Pamela Geller): Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, pressed
Hillary Rodham Clinton on early suggestions that protests against an
inflammatory anti-Islam video had played a role in the attack in
Benghazi. “Where did the false narrative start?”
Mr. Jordan said. “It
started with you, Madame Secretary.” Mrs. Clinton said that she had mentioned the video as a warning to
the region, and that she had not been saying it set off the attack. Mr.
Jordan then displayed email exchanges that showed Mrs. Clinton calling
the incident a “planned attack — not a protest.”
