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."
Robert Spencer’s History of Jihad proves that the golden age of Islam was “always at the expense of infidels”

Jihad Watch : A fine review of my new book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, which you can order here now. “The History of Jihad by Robert Spencer, review by Dale Brown,” Islam, Mohammed and the Quran, October 20, 2018:
If you know anything about Robert Spencer you will know that he has spent most of his life consumed by research regarding Islam, Muhammad and the Quran. As the director of Jihad Watch he has become one of the upmost authorities on the subject and for this he has been a target of scorn by liberals and even more seriously by Muslim fanatics who would very much like to silence him.
Because of his brave and open criticism of Muhammad’s little helpers he has been added to the list of those forbidden entry to England for fear of starting a riot that the authorities cannot contain.
This latest book compiles the most thoroughly documented history of Muslim violence to date. Loaded with references from the Quran and quotes from historical documents that few have access to he paints a picture of an ongoing violent stream of jihadi activity that has filled the streets with blood both east and west.
When many authors look to find the glorious golden years of Islam Spencer proves that those golden years have always been at the expense of infidels and financed by those dhimmis who have submitted to paying the jizyah tax in support of the Muslim cause. Islam is ultimately about power but Spencer and others have demonstrated that words have power as well, especially when based on truth.
That is what this book is about, the true history which brought terror to the world since that day 1,400 years ago.
