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."
“We will get rid of Christian people like you”: Christian jailed on false charges in Kuwait, sues Kuwaiti government
Friday, June 28, 2019
Hani Morris, an Egyptian Coptic Christian,
Jihad Watch : After Canada accepted his Asylum for Protection as a refugee from
Kuwait, Hani Morris, an Egyptian Coptic Christian, filed a lawsuit
against Kuwait, and more specifically against two major institutions
there, Al Mulla Motors and United Ahli bank in Kuwait. The case was
accepted by the Canadian Court.
Although the case is not directed against the State of Kuwait
specifically, it is exposing corruption in state institutions, how
justice is undermined in Kuwait, how to end the violation of the rights
and dignity of foreign workers, and how corruption and nepotism are
rampant in Kuwaiti state institutions. The Ambassador of Kuwait to
Canada is Mr. Abdul Hamid Al-Failakawi.
This is a story of the mistreatment and torture of an Egyptian family that was deprived of its dignity of being an Egyptian family for being Christian.Hani Morris traveled from Egypt to work in Kuwait in 1995 and worked
there until he married in 2001. He fell in love with the State of Kuwait
and its people, and brought his wife to live with him there.
His wife
gave birth to their first child, Hanin, in 2002, and his second child in
2007. For Hani and his family, Kuwait was for them as second homeland,
and their chosen homeland; the two children loved the Kuwait they where
they were born and grew up.
