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."
Medforth : Moroccan beheaded a homeless man – Heads are rolling in Germany: Severed head found in front of Bonn Regional Court
UPDATE: His buddy Hasan H., with whom he shared a sleeping place on the banks of the river Rhine in Bonn, chopped off his head in a state of intoxication and ran with it about one kilometre to the court.
Heads have been rolling for years in the “best
Germany ever”. It is known who the victims are. In Bonn, the severed
head of a 44-year-old homeless man lay before the regional court on June
29, 2022. In a cemetery in Koblenz, investigators found the decapitated
body of 59-year-old homeless man Gerd Michael Straten in 2018. Police
are looking for parallels between the two crimes.
In the Bonn case, a 38-year-old suspect was arrested. He sat
motionless next to the head and made no attempt to escape. The man,
whose nationality the police did not give any information about, is
homeless just like the victim, but is also known to the police for drug
offences.
The range of victims obviously excludes any – however organised –
background to the acts. Nevertheless, conclusions can be drawn about a
problem that goes beyond each individual regrettable case: In July 2021, a 54-year-old homeless man died after being stabbed on a park bench in Hanover.
Also in July 2021, a 22-year-old Somali massacred a 52-year-old
roommate in a homeless shelter in the Bavarian Forest with 111 stab
wounds and cut off his head. He had heard voices during the crime, was
declared insane and locked away in a psychiatric ward. One month later, a 35-year-old man dies in a refugee and homeless
shelter in Greven, North Rhine-Westphalia, stabbed by a 25-year-old
Afghan.
In a homeless shelter in Sigmaringen, a 28-year-old man dies from knife wounds in March 2022. And, so on…
