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."
Malaysiakini : Muhammad Shafee Abdullah will know on Oct 28 whether he walks free or
needs to answer the money laundering case against him involving RM9.5
million received from former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak.
The
Kuala Lumpur High Court today fixed the date for a decision at the end
of the prosecution’s case regarding the four money laundering charges
against the lawyer.
Trial judge Muhammad Jamil Hussin set the
verdict at 9am on Oct 28, after having heard oral submissions by deputy
public prosecutor Afzainizam Abdul Aziz and the accused’s defence
counsel Harvinderjit Singh and Farhan Read.
Shafee was first charged in court on Sept 13, 2018, and the trial began on May 21, 2021. The prosecution closed its case against the lawyer on May 12 this year after having called eight prosecution witnesses.
Shafee
is facing two charges of receiving money amounting to RM9.5 million,
purportedly from illegal activities, through two cheques issued by
Najib, which were deposited into his CIMB Bank Bhd account.
The
lawyer is also facing two counts of engaging in transactions resulting
from illegal activities, namely submitting incorrect tax returns and in
violation of Paragraph 113(1)(a) of the Income Tax Act 1967 for the
financial years ending Dec 31, 2013, and Dec 31, 2014.
Charges defective, counsel claims
Sun : Perhaps RPK can deliver the verdict/judgment much earlier? So many of us are anxiously waiting for his "leaked" judgments. Perhaps RPK is already writing one in a hurry, now that the cops have presumably scared the daylights out of his mole in the judicial administrative department.
P : He must be praying every night to be sent to Kajang instead of anywhere Ros might be going.
Krabian : Here is another who's who for PAS Hadi Awang "non Bumi non Muslim" corruption databank.
Apache : Someone is going to have ulcers, dog bites, covid, stomach problems, son/daugher marriage day on 28 Oct.
