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."
CAIR (Muslim Brotherhood) Enraged by ROTC Exercise Featuring Jihadis as Enemies
Tuesday, May 22, 2018
Jihad Watch : ROTC’s got a lot of nerve to notice the global jihad. My latest at PJ Media: A ridiculous article last Thursday in UCLA’s student newspaper, The Daily Bruin,
reveals the mindset of those who believe that “Islamophobia” is a
bigger threat than jihad terror, and reveals yet again the insidious
agenda of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
“It takes a lot of work to
marginalize 3.5 million Americans at once,” writes the article’s author,
Omar Said, “but the ROTC did just that when it stereotyped Muslims to portray enemy combatants.”
Who are American troops facing in Afghanistan? Methodists?
Said complained:
During a training held by UCLA’s and California State
University, Fresno’s Army ROTCs in early April, students acting as enemy
soldiers in combat simulations wore clothing commonly worn by civilians
in Arab countries. The clothing included kufiyyas and iqals, which are
better known as the flowing scarves Arab men traditionally wear on their
heads.
It might seem incongruous and
wrong for the enemy combatants in the exercise to be dressed as
civilians, until one recalls that the Taliban, al-Qaeda, and the rest
don’t usually march out in full uniform. Also, they often base their
activity in civilian areas in order to claim that U.S. strikes hit
non-combatants so that they might win points in the ongoing propaganda
war.
In any case, the civilian dress was not the only aspect of this exercise that enraged Said. He noted:
