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."
Trump peace plan offers “Palestinians” a state with increased territory and $50 billion
Wednesday, January 29, 2020
Jihad Watch : Trump said the map will make clear the “territorial sacrifices that Israel is willing to make for peace.”
This is unfortunate, as no territorial sacrifices other than complete
suicide will ever satisfy the “Palestinians.” The idea that they will
accept a Jewish state of any size, in any form, is a pipe dream, as The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process
shows.
Trump would have done better to challenge the very existence of
this propaganda fiction, the “Palestinian” people, and called upon
Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt to grant citizenship to the “refugees.”
What’s more, a Palestinian state would simply be a new base for more
jihad attacks against Israel, as the withdrawal from Gaza demonstrates.
It would not bring peace.
This part, however, is on the right track: “You are recognizing
Israel’s sovereignty over all Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.” “Deal of Century establishes Palestinian state, Jewish control of
Jerusalem,” by Omri Nahmias, Lahav Harkov, and Maayan Jaffe-Hoffman, Jerusalem Post, January 28, 2020 :
