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."
News Site Discovers Quran is Hostile to Women and Unbelievers
Wednesday, February 16, 2022
Hat tip RoP : From ‘Beheading non-believers’ to ‘Hitting wives’, here are more quotes from the Quran website quoted by Advocate Kamat during the hearing of hijab row.
The reference used to explain the hijab i.e. Quran contains much of misogynistic content in all of its interpretations. Devadatt Kamat, the senior counsel who presented in the Karnataka
High Court on behalf of the Muslim petitioners and argued in favour of
wearing hijab in schools, cited Quranic verses from the website quran.com.
He argued that the headscarf is an essential element of the Islamic
dress code, citing Quranic references. In court, Kamat read verses 24.31
and 24.33 of the Quran to explain that wearing a hijab or veil over
one’s head is an essential Islamic practice. We’ve selected a few verses from the same website that Kamat used and
have some far-fetching implications. Also, the translations we are
using here are the same ones that were referred to by Kamat before the
court.
This verse asserts unequivocally that non-Muslims are the lowest of beings and will perish in the fires of hell. Quoting, “Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters will have the Fire of Hell, there to remain. They are the worst of creation.”
