7th Rangers: Once a mistake, twice a pattern, thrice a habit: Rahul Gandhi again avoids sharing images of Hindu Gods as he extends wishes on Rath Yatra
Fighting Seventh
The Fighting Rangers On War, Politics and Burning Issues
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."

Empty Chariots
You stupid Indians, don't get it, he hates Hindus and Hinduism. For you guys have placed him and the Congress Party of traitors in a trash bin, no hope of him coming back. He resents the fact that India has a Hindu Government which practices secularism and not sickularism
On July 1, Friday, around a million devotees from across the country have congregated at Puri to attend the auspicious Jagannath Rath Yatra after a hiatus of two years owing to the Covid pandemic. People from all walks of life have taken to various social media platforms to wish Hindus whole-heartedly on the occasion of the famous Rath Yatra festival of Lord Jagannath. Congress senior leader Rahul Gandhi, too, extended greetings but was ‘careful’ not to share any images of Hindu deities, as usual.
The Gandhi scion’s greeting adhered to his habit of not posting any images of Hindu gods or goddesses while conveying his wishes. In his Tweet posted today morning, Rahul Gandhi included an infographic with the word “Rath Yatra” and a picture of three ’empty’ chariots. As is customary with the Congress leader, Lord Jagannath, Devi Subhadra, and Lord Balabhadra’s images were absent from the image he used to send his wishes to Hindus celebrating the occasion.
