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."
Azerbaijan hires Syrian jihadis as mercenaries, they impose Sharia, mandating hijabs and forbidding liquor

Syrian Jihadis flown in by Turkey
Jihad Watch : The secularized Azerbaijanis lived for decades under Soviet Communist
rule and have not lived under Sharia for centuries. They aren’t used to
this, particularly since it was entirely unexpected. Having no modern
experience with Sharia, they feel keenly the inhumanity of many of its
provisions.
“Sharia Law, chaos and looting against Azerbaijani citizens –Baku’s plan to hire jihadists implodes,” Armen Press, September 28, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 28, ARMENPRESS. The militants from
Syria hired as mercenaries by Azerbaijan for the attack on Artsakh have
caused chaos in the Azerbaijani villages where they are deployed and the
altercations with the local Azerbaijani populated has even escalated to
clashes, according to the Free Azerbaijan website, among other sources.
“The Syrian militants have caused chaos. According to the report
there are clashes between the local residents and the Syrian militants
for already two days. The militants from the Middle East are mistreating
the villagers, insulting them, threatening, prohibiting women to go
outside without wearing hijabs. In addition, the “guests” are attacking
and looting the local stores and not allowing shopkeepers to sell
liquor. In other words, the militants are applying Sharia Law” the
Azerbaijani news website reported.
Moreover, the Azeri military police has intervened to prevent a
potential large-scale clash. The military police officers were able to
forcefully bring the situation under control for now.
Local residents have stressed that it is alarming that they have to withstand the militants who are fighting on their own side.
According to intelligence reports Azerbaijan has recruited nearly 4000 militants from Syria to attack Artsakh.
