“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."

Hat tip RoP : London police open investigations into assault on Jewish man in apartment building, and antisemitic harassment of Jewish family.
London
Metropolitan Police have opened investigations into several recent
anti-Semitic incidents in the British capital, including an apparent
assault on a Jewish man and harassment of a Jewish woman and her
children.
On Friday afternoon, a haredi man was assaulted in a
north London apartment building, the Shomrim community watch group
reported. Closed circuit television footage of the incident shows
the assailant arguing with his victim in the building, before stealing
his phone. The victim tried to recover his phone, and the two struggled,
before the attacker repeatedly punched the haredi man, then ran off.
Police
said that a probe into the incident had been launched, but claimed that
they had no evidence thus far that the crime was motivated by
anti-Semitism. In
a separate incident reported Friday by the Shomrim group, a woman and
her two young children were harassed as they walked down the street in
the Stamford Hill neighborhood
