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."
Italy: Court upholds 30-year sentence for Muslim who stabbed a stranger in the neck because he looked ‘happy’ By Robert Spencer

Said Mechaqua
Jihad Watch : Actually Mechaquat, or Mechaout, did explain why he killed a stranger, Stefano Leo. He said:
“I hit a white, based on the obvious fact that a young Italian would
have caused a sensation.
I looked at him and I was sure he was Italian. I
wanted to kill a guy like me, take away all the promises he had,
children, remove him from his friends and relatives.” He also noted that
Leo looked “happy.” He stabbed him in the throat.
“Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are ruthless
against the unbelievers and merciful among themselves.” (Qur’an 48:29) “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks.” (Qur’an 47:4) Note that the killer looks quite contented in a photo
of him that was taken after his arrest. “Fight them, and Allah will
punish them by your hands, and he will lay them low and give you victory
over them, and he will heal the hearts of people who are believers. And
he will remove the anger of their hearts.” (Qur’an 9:14 and 15).
