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."
New York Times: ‘A French Teenager’s Anti-Islam Rant Unleashed Death Threats’
Thursday, July 08, 2021
Jihad Watch : The New York Times, like the rest of the establishment Left’s propaganda
organs, is committed to concealing crimes done in the name of Islam and
in accord with its teachings, and does all it can to absolve Islam of
all responsibility for those misdeeds.
This headline is a particularly
piquant example of how it is done: the responsibility for the death
threats is placed not upon those who actually issued the threats, but
upon the “teenager’s anti-Islam rant.” It would be akin to saying, “An
accident at the lab unleashed the virus”: in such a case, the lab would
be responsible.
And so likewise the teenager is responsible for
“unleashing” the threats, although she was actually their target, and
she did not force those who made the threats to do so in any way. The
Times never even considers the idea that Muslims are in control of their
actions and responsible for any threats they may issue. To do so would
be “Islamophobic.” “A French Teenager’s Anti-Islam Rant Unleashed Death Threats. Now 13 Are on Trial.” By Aurelien Breeden, New York Times, July 6, 2021 :
