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."
Saudis Kept Two Terror Groups Off U.S. List - And Hillary Clinton adjutant Huma Abedin has ties to both of them.
Tuesday, June 21, 2016
The Saudi Arabian government apparently had so much clout with
previous U.S. administrations that they refused to designate as
terrorist organizations two terror-funding Islamofascist groups linked
to Huma Abedin, now the vice-chairman of Hillary Clinton’s presidential
campaign. Abedin is joined at the hip to Hillary. She is to Mrs. Clinton what Valerie Jarrett is to President Obama.
That two deadly terrorist groups avoided proper scrutiny for years is a
chilling reminder of how close Mrs. Clinton's political network is to
the brutal Muslim Brotherhood, possibly the Left's favorite Islamist
operation. It also underlines the extent to which Islamist enemies of
the United States have infiltrated the American political establishment.
And it takes on added importance now that polls show the pathologically
dishonest Alinskyite radical who wrote the communitarian manifesto It Takes A Village has a significant lead over presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Sifting through archived media reports, Breitbart’s Lee Stranahan discovered
it was known in the weeks following the 9/11 attacks that the
International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO) and its parent entity
the Muslim World League (MWL), both of which are directly funded by
Saudi authorities, were financial backers of al-Qaeda. “The
Saudis have probably done more to penetrate Al Qaeda than any other
foreign intelligence service, but Al Qaeda in turn has penetrated the
Saudi regime,” Newsweek reported the month after 9/11.
Although the IIRO, whose website calls the group the International
Islamic Relief Organization of Saudi Arabia (IIROSA), and MWL “have been
used by bin Laden to finance his operations,” they were “left off the
list of groups sanctioned by the United States last week, U.S. officials
hinted … in order to avoid embarrassing the Saudi government.”
The League acknowledges
on its website that it is “engaged in propagating the religion of
Islam” and “elucidating its principles and tenets.” It also engages in
strategic lying, known in the Islamic world as taqiyya. The
League “is well known for rejecting all acts of violence and promoting
dialogue with the people of other cultures,” its website claims, adding
that it does “not intend to undermine, dominate or practice hegemony
over anyone else.”
It claims on the site that it has “external
centers,” “external offices,” and “Islamic centers” in Argentina,
Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Belgium, Bosnia Herzegovina, Brazil,
Burundi, Canada, Congo, Denmark, Egypt, France, Hungary, Indonesia,
Italy, Jordan, Malaysia, Mozambique, Netherlands, Nigeria, Pakistan,
Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sudan, Sweden, United Kingdom,
and other countries. IIRO describes itself as “a charity organization emanating from the Muslim World League.”
