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."
1. (1963 - 1964) Donald Stephen (Tun Fuad) digulingkan kerana mengkritik penyingkiran Singapura
Donald Stephen (Tun Fuad) telah digulingkan dari jawatan Ketua Menteri Sabah pertama digantikan Datu Mustapha (Tun) dengan penglibatan kepimpinan UMNO Kuala Lumpur (Syed Kechik sebagai penasihat kepada Tun Mustapha dikatakan telah memainkan peranan penting dalam hal ini).
Look at the faces of the Dicks!!!
Oleh kerana Tun Fuad begitu konsisten dalam isu penyingkiran Singapura dan keperluan untuk menyemak semula perjanjian dalam Perjanjian Penubuhan Malaysia itu, maka Kuala Lumpur telah menghantar Tun Fuad telah dilantik menjadi Menteri Persekutuan dan di hantar ke Australia sebagai Duta. Konspirasi dan manipulasi sandiwara politik ini terjadi kerana Donald Stephen sebagai Ketua Menteri Sabah pertama telah memperlihatkan kesungguhannya mempertahankan Konsep Asal Pembentukan Malaysia iaitu RAKAN KONGSI SAMA TARAF.
2. (1967 – 1975) Tun Datu Mustapha digulingkan kerana tidak tunduk kepada Kuala Lumpur
Keengganan Tun Datu Mustapha, Ketua Menteri Sabah untuk tunduk kepada kehendak Kuala Lumpur pada tahun 1975, menyebabkan Kuala Lumpur tidak selesa dan melihat tindak-tanduk Tun Datu Mustapha sebagai menggagalkan usaha Kuala Lumpur untuk terus menguasai Sabah. Oleh sebab keengganan untuk tunduk kepada permintaan Kuala Lumpur maka Tun difitnah bahawa kononnya Tun Datu Mustapha sedang merancang membawa keluar Sabah dari Malaysia.
Mungkin kita masih ingat lagi perkara-perkara yang telah melabelkan parti USNO ini sebagai parti zalim kerana Kuala Lumpur telah memainkan satu sandawara politik yang mana lelaki berambut panjang ditangkap dan digunting rambutnya, perempuan yang memakai mini-skirt ditangkap dan digunting mini-skirtnya sehingga Nampak pakaian dalam dan paderi, pastor, penginjil ditangkap dan dipenjarakan. Kuasa menangkap iaitu polis dan tentera bukanlah atas kuasa kerajaan negeri tetapi terletak di Kuala Lumpur.
