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."
Turkey’s Defense Minister: “We are at the same point in Cyprus that we were in 1974…we will do what we did then”

Erdogan's Attack Dog, Hulusi Akar
Jihad Watch : Turkey has occupied northern Cyprus since 1974, ostensibly to protect
the Turkish Muslims there from attacks from the Greek Orthodox
Christians.
Those attacks were not, of course, really happening. And now
Turkey’s Defense Minister, Hulusi Akar, has threatened that Turkey may
renew its jihad in Cyprus: “We are at the same point in Cyprus that we
were in 1974. No one should doubt that we will do what we did then if we
have a similar situation today.”
Sure. Because it is part of the Turkey’s new jihadist expansionism.
Cyprus was a goal of the warriors of jihad from the very beginning. As The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS
shows, jihadis first conquered Cyprus in 649, and the island was
thereafter a point of contention between the forces of Islam and those
of Christian Europe for centuries.
In 1571, the Ottoman Sultan Selim the
Sot ordered a new jihad conquest of Cyprus because his favorite wine
was made there, and he had drunk through all his stores of it. This
course of action didn’t work out so well for Selim. Find out why in The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS. “Akar renews Cyprus invasion threat,” Ekathimerini, August 30, 2019:
