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."
NYC Muslim cleric: Do not take Jews or Christians as friends, penalty is death for non-Muslim informants in mosques

Jihad Watch : “O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as
allies.
They are allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them
among you – then indeed, he is of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the
wrongdoing people.” (Qur’an 5:51)
This is one of the many verses that Islamic apologists in the US
claim has no practical application today, but applies only to very
particular circumstances in the seventh century.
Imam Abul Baraa
Muhammad Abdullah Amreeki doesn’t seem to have received that memo. “NY Cleric Abul Baraa Amreeki: Do Not Take Jews and Christians as
Allies; FBI and Police Hire Informants in Mosques; Islam Forbids Spying
For the Authorities; Some Scholars Say Punishable By Death,” MEMRI, January 25, 2019:
