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."
BCF : Even as the vengeful left found a new heroine, Trump took to his weaponized Twitter account to mock the demon child and trigger the haters.
Go back to Sweden you little communist freak…
Piercing shrieks of outrage erupted following President Trump’s latest epic trolling, this time of sixteen-year-old climate change tantrum thrower Greta Thunberg.
Now that the left has gone all-in on the cynical fearmongering that the planet is going to become uninhabitable and that everyone is going to die in twelve years, climate change has become akin to a cult and anti-Trumpers have embraced it like a religion.
Sticking with the recent strategy of using children as human shields as we saw with the exploitation of the tragic school shooting in Parkland, FL and the elevation of a handful of angry teens as mouthpieces for gun confiscation, Thunberg has been made into a global celebrity.
And on Monday, the petulant Swedish brat with serious mental issues was given a forum in front of the United Nations where her unhinged diatribe before the General Assembly offered a horrifying glimpse at a future where her socialist generation will take power and exact terrible revenge against adults.
Even as the vengeful left found a new heroine, Trump took to his weaponized Twitter account to mock the demon child and trigger the haters.
Via The Guardian, “‘She seems very happy’: Trump appears to mock Greta Thunberg’s emotional speech”:
Donald Trump appears to have taken a swipe at teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg, tweeting a video of an emotional Thunberg with an apparently sarcastic comment that she seems to be “very happy” and looking forward to a bright future.
“She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!” tweeted the US president late on Monday night.
The president tweeted out a video with the comment showing visibly upset Thunberg as she delivered a blistering speech to world leaders at a United Nations summit, saying they had betrayed young people through their inertia over the climate crisis.
In the stinging speech on Monday, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist told governments: “You are still not mature enough to tell it like it is. You are failing us. But the young people are starting to understand your betrayal.”
“You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words,” she said.
