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."
The UN Hates Israel — America’s Embassy Move Proved It
Tuesday, May 15, 2018
Daily Caller : In 2016, the U.N. World Heritage Committee claimed Muslims — not Jews — hold a prior claim to the Temple mount, despite King Solomon and the Jewish people building the temple more than 1,600 years before the birth of Islam. When President Donald Trump announced the U.S. would be moving its
Israel based embassy from Tel Aviv to the capital of Jerusalem, the U.N.
showed its true colors.
Days after Trump’s announcement, the U.N. voted 128 to 9 to condemn
him — just the most recent in the U.N.’s long history of singling out
Israel for criticism. In response, America’s U.N. Ambassador, Nikki
Haley, made a veiled threat, pointing out the U.S. contributes more
money to the U.N. than any other country, and promising the U.S. would
remember where countries fell on the embassy vote. (RELATED: The First US Embassy Signs Are Up In Jerusalem)
The U.N.’s dislike for Israel is obvious. The General Assembly adopted
26 resolutions that criticized a country in 2016 — of which 20 were
directed at Israel. Ten critical resolutions were issued in a single day,
including language that condemned “acts of violence, destruction,
harassment, provocation and incitement by Israeli settlers” in what the
General Assembly called “Occupied Palestinian Territory.”
