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."
Swedish Swimming Federation chair resigns after backlash to her statement that veil is “symbol of repression”
Wednesday, February 20, 2019
Swedish Swimming Federation (SSF) chair Ulla Gustavsson
Jihad Watch : As I’ve pointed out ad infinitum, any opposition to jihad mass murder
and/or Sharia oppression of women is now immediately branded as “hate,”
“bigotry,” and “Islamophobia,” and leads to public disgrace and career
ruin. People who think I’m exaggerating, and that this treatment is only
meted out to genuine bigots, should ponder this story very carefully.
For the question must be asked, although no one in the establishment media in Sweden or anywhere else will ask it: is
the veil a symbol of repression, or isn’t it? Do the people who forced
Ulla Gustavsson to resign care about Aqsa Parvez, whose Muslim father choked her to death with her hijab after she refused to wear it.
or for the women in Gaza whom Hamas has forced to wear hijab; or for the women in Iran who protested against the regime, even before the recent uprising, by daring to take off their hijabs; or for the women in London whom Muslim thugs threatened to murder if they didn’t wear hijab; or for the anonymous young Muslim woman who doffed her hijab outside her home and started living a double life in fear of her parents; or for the fifteen girls in Saudi Arabia who were killed
when the religious police wouldn’t let them leave their burning school
building because they had taken off their hijabs in their all-female
environment;
or for the girl in Italy whose mother shaved her head
for not wearing hijab; or for all the other women and girls who have
been killed or threatened, or who live in fear for daring not to wear
the hijab? “Swedish Swimming Federation chair resigns after backlash to claiming veil is ‘symbol of repression,'” by Michael Pavitt, Inside the Games, February 18, 2019 :
