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."
During his controversial address, Rahul Gandhi signalled his desire for
foreign intervention two times.
The first one is during the mention of
the Russia Ukraine issue, and the second one is when he criticised
Indian diplomats for being unwilling to take orders from Europeans.
Gandhi-scion Rahul Gandhi was yet again at the receiving end of
severe criticism for his speech at the recently held ‘Ideas for India’
conference in the United Kingdom. In his speech at the Congress party event
organised by the non-profit think-tank Bridge India, Rahul Gandhi
shared several ideas, where he promoted sub-nationalism besides
instigating anarchy in the country by calling for a ‘mass action’ against the Indian state.
Speaking at the event in the United Kingdom, Congress leader Rahul
Gandhi resorted to scaremongering, asserting that a civil war is
impending in India, which would not surprise him as the country is
extremely unstable. The Congress MP claimed that India was in a horrible
position and that a political revolution was required.
To corroborate his wild claims, Rahul Gandhi stated that the
Bharatiya Janata Party has poured kerosene around the country and that a
single spark is enough to blow the country up. Congress leader Rahul
Gandhi also claimed that the “deep state” RSS controls the country,
causing the damage.
Upping the ante on the Indian state, Rahul Gandhi called for a ‘mass
action’ within the country while at the same time calling for foreign
interference to end the nexus of the ‘deep state’ and save his ‘Idea of
India’.
