“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."
Pakistan: Christian sentenced to death for blasphemy for saying ‘Jesus is supreme’

Ashfaq Masih in chains
Robert Spencer : The global “human rights organizations” yawn. This doesn’t fit their
narrative of Muslim victimhood, and so will be quickly memory-holed. “Christian mechanic in Pakistan gets death for ‘blasphemy’. His said ‘Jesus is supreme,’” by Revathi Krishnan, The Print, July 5, 2022:
New Delhi: More than five years after his arrest, a Christian mechanic booked on the charges of blasphemy was sentenced to
death by a Lahore court Monday. Masih has been in jail since 2017 and
his case riddled with adjournments. The accused, who has a wife and a
daughter, also lost his mother in 2019 while he was behind the bars.
According
to reports, in June 2017, Masih got into a dispute with a Muslim
customer in Lahore after he repaired the latter’s bike. When Masih asked
for payment, the customer did not pay the entire amount and asked for a
waiver on grounds that he was a religious devotee. Masih refused the
request, saying he believed in Christ.

The issue of money led to a
heated argument and a crowd gathered, accusing Masih of “disrespecting”
the Prophet Muhammad. The mechanic had allegedly said that for
Christians, Jesus was supreme. This was enough for his arrest.
Since 2019, the case has witnessed multiple
adjournments, rescheduling, judge not showing up, witness failing to
turn up and even the complainant’s lawyer not registering their
presence. In 2019, Masih was released on parole to attend his
mother’s funeral. After he was arrested, it has been reported that the
family fled from Lahore in fear.
On multiple occasions, in different court appearances, Masih can be seen chained and in handcuffs.
