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 : Loony Moronic Leftists, senior Conservatives fight to save Islamic State jihad killers from execution
Tuesday, July 24, 2018
Jihad Watch : Left-wing politicians, media commentators, and senior
Tories are upset that Home Secretary Sajid Javid is not trying to save
alleged Islamic State killers from possible death sentences in the U.S.
The bizarre reasoning was summed up by Labour MP Hilary Benn:
It is precisely because of the barbaric nature of the
crimes which they committed that we, as a country, have to show we are
better than them and what they did
Yet precisely due to the indescribable barbarity of the abuses
committed by Islamic State jihadis, an Iraqi judge said that he was
sentencing jihadis from the UK to death by hanging — in order to protect
Britain.
Abdul Sattar Beraqdar,
spokesman for the Supreme Judicial Council, said British members of
ISIS deserved to die, and that “the punishment, as much as it seems
strong, will affect the security of your country….I am sure there are
hundreds of people in Britain at this moment thinking of committing
similar crimes.” A senior cabinet minister and secretary of state for defence, Gavin Williamson,
also recognized the grave threat to citizens that members of the
Islamic State pose.
He stated months ago that those who have “fought for
Islamic State abroad should be hunted down and killed to ensure they
never return to the UK….I do not believe that any terrorist, whether
they come from this country or any other, should ever be allowed back
into this country…We should do everything we can do to destroy and
eliminate that threat.” “Leftists, Senior Tories Fight to Save ISIS Killers from Execution,
Despite Public Support for Death Penalty,” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, July 23, 2018:
