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."
Way To Go: PAS could be wiped out if they don't piggyback on Umno/BN. They have no confidence in former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s Bersatu, though they are together in a coalition.
It
is a matter of time before this politically and ideologically bankrupt
party will go on its hands and knees to prostrate at its master's feet
for the crumbs that fall from the Umno/BN table - all in the name of the
ummah.
The ummah, whatever they represent, seem to be the scapegoats of
these parasitical race-and-religious politicians whose only interest in
them is to feather their own nest.
Interestingly, the clarion call
for race, religion and ummah unity was the same excuse used to
undermine the democratically-elected Pakatan Harapan government, the
Sheraton coup and the backdoor power grab by those racists and bigots.
But
once they grabbed backdoor power, they began squabbling over perks,
privileges and positions, constantly bickering and at loggerheads, like a
fallout among thieves.
Now this same clique that pulled off the
Sheraton Move coup wants to cooperate again in the run-up to the 15th
general election in the name of race, religion and the ummah. After the election, once the spoils are distributed, we can expect a
repeat of the post-Sheraton posturing and bickering for more perks and
positions, whereupon the ummah will be the first victim of these
guardians of race and religion.
