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."
The resistance fights back against 4 enemies, but 2 friends have joined it

I can't imagine the Northern alliance letting Taliban take their children for gifts of marriage to Taliban fighters. Taliban has No Morals at all and should be Defeated. God Willing this Will Happen. Fight for the ones you love even to the Death. And seek the LORD our God in everything you do.
In times like this, I think of people throughout history who never gave up in the face of seemingly impossible odds. Washington, Lincoln, FDR, Churchill, De Gaulle, the Spartans, Witold Pilecki, John Brown and more. They gave so much for freedom even when it seemed all was lost. If they never gave up, what excuse does anyone else have? Even if it doesn’t work, better to die on your feet than live on your knees. Stay strong, Afghanistan. Send a message to the Taliban and Pakistan. They can take your freedom when they pry it from your cold, dead hands!
There was an Airstrike last Night on Several Taliban Strongholds near Panjsir Valley. Unknown Fighter Jets Bombed Taliban positions.
