Fighting Seventh
The Fighting Rangers On War, Politics and Burning Issues
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."
In NOT so great britain - UK Lord asks if mosques will be monitored for “hate speech,” is threatened with “hate speech” prosecution for asking

Jihad Watch : A chronicle of a society in its death throes: Lord Pearson asks if
“Her Majesty’s Government whether, in pursuit of their anti-terrorism
strategy,” will “require preaching in mosques and teaching in madrassas
in England and Wales to be monitored for hate speech against
non-Muslims.”
In response, the Muslim Baroness Warsi issues a warning: “I shall be
really careful how I phrase this with reference to the original
Question. Could I ask Her Majesty’s Government whether, in pursuit of
their antiterrorism
strategy, they will require preaching in the form of Oral Questions and
debate in your Lordships’ House to be monitored for hate speech and
Islamophobia against Muslims?”
So the question of whether the government will monitor the mosques
for “hate speech” is thrust aside, and Pearson is threatened for his
“Islamophobia.” Everyone present except for Lord Pearson appears to
assume that all the mosques in the UK teach peace and brotherhood, and
that this should not be questioned. It would be “indiscreet” to question
it, as Lord Bourne says: “I agree with [Baroness Warsi] about the
importance of people in this House exercising discretion—of course,
within the bounds of free speech—about what they say.”
Within the bounds of free speech? Free speech properly understood has
no bounds except actual incitement to violence and approval of criminal
activity. If questions cannot even be asked about actual and serious
national security issues, then there is no freedom of speech in Britain,
and as a free society, it is finished. “Anti-terrorism: Hate Speech,” Parliament.uk, June 27, 2018 :
