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."
Pukistan: Muslim mob murders Christian for trying to defend his sister whom Muslims had stripped naked in street
Monday, May 31, 2021
Jihad Watch : These mobs can act against Christians with impunity, knowing that
Pakistani law enforcement and judicial officials will be largely on
their side.
“Gojra, Muslims kill Christian who was trying to protect sister,” by Shafique Khokhar, Asia News, May 25, 2021:
Gojra (AsiaNews) – Arif Masih, 32, was killed by a group
of Muslims for trying to defend his sister from the harassment of two
young Muslims. Days earlier, the two young men had dragged the girl into
the street and stripped her naked. Faced with police and the government
inertia, his parents exposed the body of their son in the street,
asking for solidarity and justice from passers-by.
Arif Masih is the son of Saleem Masih, and resided in the Chak 370
village of Tariqabad (Gojra, Punjab). According to his brother, Rizwan
Masih, events began on 20 May. Their sister, Rehana Bibi, 18, had gone
to the bazaar to buy some milk. Returning home, two young men, Muhammad
Tariq and Muhammad Majid, began to harass her. The girl tried to escape
and took refuge in the house. The two broke into the house and got into a
fight with Arif. The two young men also took the girl and dragged her
to the bazaar, tore off her clothes and mocked her.
District policeman Toba Tek Singh Rana Umar Farooq ordered them to
file a complaint. Arif therefore drew up the complaint (first
information report # 506/2021) against Muhammad Tariq and Muhammad
Majid, citing article 354-A which punishes “anyone who assaults or uses
criminal force against a woman and tears her clothes, and in those
conditions exhibits her to the public “. The complaint was filed on the
same 20 May, but no one was arrested.
Since then, the accused began to threaten Arif with the worst consequences if he failed to drop the complaint.
According to several witnesses, on May 23, both perpetrators went to
Arif’s home and attacked him. They loaded him onto their motorcycle and
then beat and poisoned him, throwing him on the street. Local people
informed the family that their son was lifeless in the middle of the
road. In critical condition, Arif was first taken to Tehsil Headquarters
Hospital in Gojra; after first aid, he was transferred to Allied
Hospital in Faisalabad.
