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."
Pakistan Practices Apartheid : Muslim NGO denies food to poor Hindus and Christians amid coronavirus pandemic

Paki Style Apartheid
Jihad Watch : “The reason for this is that Zakat, Islamic alms giving (one of Islam’s five pillars), is reserved for Muslims.” Islamic apologists in the West routinely deny that this is the case, but here it is in action.
Anyway, if the reverse were true, this story would receive massive
international media coverage. But no one will take any particular notice
of this. “Coronavirus: Karachi NGO denies food to poor Hindus and Christians,” by Shafique Khokhar, Asia News, March 30, 2020:A Karachi NGO has denied food aid to
poor Hindus and Christians, who like Muslims are suffering from
coronavirus.
In Pakistan, the number of coronavirus cases now stands at 1,664 with
21 deaths. The conditions of the poor are cause for great concern. Due to government travel restrictions, many day labourers lost the
only source of livelihood for their family. Various government and local
organisations have tried to help them.
The Saylani Welfare International Trust has been operating in the
Korangi area since 1999, handing out aid and meals to homeless people
and seasonal workers.Two days ago, the welfare organisation refused to give ration cards
to non-Muslims, saying that only Muslims are entitled to them.
The reason for this is that Zakat, Islamic alms giving (one of
Islam’s five pillars), is reserved for Muslims. The Christian man said
he begged for food to no avail. Farooq Masih, a 54-year-old Christian in Korangi, said that last
Saturday, Abid Qadri, a member of Saylani Welfare, with other NGO
members, handed out food cards in his area. But, when they got to
Christian homes, they just moved on.
Adan, a Muslim who lives in the same area, is outraged by the NGO’s
attitude. “Why did they discriminate against Christians? Are they not
citizens of Pakistan? They have gone beyond the limits. This act is not
acceptable from an association that claims to serve humanity. We are all
suffering from COVID-19.”
