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."
Jammu and Kashmir: Islamic State vows that “our hands will feel no weakness in slaying these enemies of Islam”

Terrorists
Jihad Watch : This is the way the Islamic State spokesmen always talk, no matter
where they are in the world. Yet Western authorities and counterterror
“experts” such as the borderline imbecile Max Abrahms
continue to insist that the group has nothing to do with Islam.
They do
this, of course, in order to exonerate Islam from the crimes done in
its name and in accord with its teachings — but why they have decided to
do everything they can to ensure that as few people as possible have
any negative views of Islam remains as yet not fully clear.
The Islamic State targets these rival jihad groups because it still
considers itself to be the caliphate, the only legitimate government
that any Muslim should acknowledge. Accordingly, by rejecting the
Islamic State, Hizbul Mujahideen and Lashkar-e-Taiba have become rebels
and apostates. “In chilling warning to LeT, HM in Kashmir, Islamic State affiliate
warns it ‘will feel no weakness in slaying these enemies of Islam,'” by
