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."
Let me settle this behind closed doors, says Khairy on Rembau seat
Monday, September 12, 2022
Malaysiakini : Rembau MP Khairy Jamaluddin said he will have discussions behind
closed doors with Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan on who will be
contesting his seat in the 15th general election.
Mohamad yesterday had said that he was indeed vying for a parliamentary constituency in GE15 but had yet to decide on which seat he would be contesting.
He
said that as Umno deputy president it was up to him as to which seat he
would contest and that people saying he was going for the Rembau was up
to them and "was not his concern".
Crystal Knight : Let the fight begin. The one with less 'money baggage' will prevail. Watch this and the social media 'space'!
My Brother Did It : The unsporting and un statesmen tok syok sendiri mat wants to kill off khairy as he knows jhairy is a certain contender for umno prsidency , especially when he came close to defeating zahid yayasan money i never touch hamidi
Cogito Ergo Sum : KJ, you created this by announcing you were asked to vacate Rembau. Now, you want to sound as you are a moderate leader by saying you won’t say anything anymore.
You want sympathy? You had it but with this, no more. You are as arrogant as your party peers. The lot of you should lose your deposits come GE15.
IndigoHorse9495 : Happy UMNO divided with Zahid creating more confusion.PH must take this opportunity to exploit strengthen and win the next GE
Mechi : Umno is seriously divided all due to Zahid being scared to hell in having Umno elections. Zahid knows he wld lose & fade due to his 47 charges.
Selfish Zahid & Najib, both self serving & a bunch of indolent materialistic voters who side like RPK & PAS where the money is better. Mercenary & not fighting for the nation!!
5impleMind : When KJ first went public with his "I was asked to vacate... blah blah blah", I knew he was soliciting sympathy and support. Back then, why didn't he immediately approach those who call the shots?
Windsurfer : Multiracial society? He only made noises about a multiracial Malaysian society but did nothing. He appointed racists or gave in to them. Remember the medical students in Ukraine. Did he appoint any nons to senior positions?
