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."
Austria: Muslim chases and kicks man distributing Bibles because his shirt said ‘Christ is God’ in Arabic
Tuesday, April 19, 2022
The Muslim Terrorist
Robert Spencer : “They indeed have disbelieved who say, Indeed, Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary.” (Qur’an 5:17) “Radical man attacks Bible distributors in the middle of Vienna,”
translated from “Radikaler Mann attackiert mitten in Wien
Bibel-Verteiler,” Heute, April 13, 2022 (thanks to Medforth):
On Tuesday, there was an attack on
a man who was calmly distributing Bibles in Vienna-Meidling. The
trigger: a saying on his sweater.
On Tuesday afternoon there were
wild scenes in the 12th district of Vienna. A stranger suddenly ran
towards a man who, as a Christian missionary, was distributing free
Bibles in the pedestrian zone. The victim initially tried to defend
himself, but had to flee after being kicked a few times by the
attacker….
According to eyewitnesses, one of the two men is said
to have been angry about the sweater on the Bible distributor – it said
“Christ is God” in Arabic script. Obviously, this provoked the rabid man
in such a way that he completely lost his composure and literally
chased him. And that’s exactly what outraged a colleague of the victim,
because in his opinion, the attack had a radically religious background.
Police came, no report
According
to an eyewitness, the police were called; they intervened and settled
the situation.
However, the victim may not have been seriously injured.
According to a police spokesman, there has been no complaint to date.
