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."
Nigeria’s president: Trump “looked at me in the face. He said ‘why are you killing Christians?'”
Sunday, September 20, 2020
The Genocidal President of Nigeria with President Donald Trump
Jihad Watch : Nigeria ranks 12th
in the Open Doors USA World Watch List of the worst countries for
Christian persecution.
Fulani jihadists and the Boko Haram jihad group
brutalize and slaughter Christians on a routine basis.
For some odd reason, Buhari — himself a Fulani and a Muslim — decided to be honest about what transpired between him and Trump.
“I was in his office, only myself and himself. Only God is my witness. He looked at me in the face. He said ‘Why are you killing Christians?‘”
Buhari explained: “I tried and explained to him this has got nothing
to do with ethnicity or religion. It is a cultural thing which the
respective leadership was failing the nation.”
This is disingenuous. Nigeria has been termed the “biggest killing ground of Christians in the world.” Anglican Archbishop Benjamin Argak Kwashi of Jos said: “This thing is systematic. It is planned; it is calculated…. their intention is to Islamize Nigeria.”
Although Buhari openly condemns Boko Haram and Fulani jihadist attacks on Christians, he has done little to stop them.
In February, the Trump Administration launched the first-ever
International Religious Freedom Alliance, which 26 countries joined:
Albania, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Colombia,
Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, The Gambia, Georgia, Greece, Hungary,
Israel, Kosovo, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland,
Senegal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Togo, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom.
Let’s hope more practical efforts are made to help Christians who are
suffering persecution in Nigeria and elsewhere. Western countries need
to be stop aid to countries that aid and abet persecution against
Christians and other religious minorities. “Buhari: Trump Accused Me of Killing Christians in Nigeria,” by Omololu Ogunmade, This Day, September 8, 2020:
