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."
DAP fields Fatin Zulaikha in BN stronghold Mersing
Monday, October 31, 2022
Malaysiakini : DAP's foray into Malay heartlands continues to expand, with greenhorn
Fatin Zulaikha Zaidi being sent to tackle BN in their Mersing
stronghold.
The 29-year-old holds a degree in politics and
government studies and had interned for Johor Jaya assemblyperson Liow
Cai Tung in 2017 before joining DAP and becoming the latter’s special
officer the next year.
From Oct 2018 to March 2020, Fatin (above) also served as a municipal councillor in Pasir Gudang.
In 2018, 82 percent of voters in Mersing were Malays. The seat has been a BN stronghold since 1986.
Scarecrow : Very beautiful decorative flower to brighten up the lacklustre dinner with dull hosts.
NoobMaster69 : At least the dinner is paid with legitimate money unlike some party that have glamorous dinner party but paid with stolen money.
Kak Molly : Full support for Fatin. You are certainly not a decorative flower looking at your background. Hope BN will send either BTS or Blackpink to Penang. Last time they send Psy to brighten up the Penangnites. They even ferried the Mak ciks via buses to the rally. But the Penangnites still vote them out.
JLoke : If DAP is true about being a non racist party, they would have fielded a heavy weight Malay to contest instead of having a light weight newbie. All these political stunt show is not going to work.
TTSH : In that case why not field a BN "dead weight" there? You have so many.
NoobMaster69 : Anything DAP do you have things to say. If today field Malay heavy weight you will say send him to die and didn't appreciate their Malay member. All these attack is not going to work here. Why don't UMNO field some heavyweight like Mat Hasan in Seremban to fight Anthony Like?
Diehardmalaysian : She has the brains and beauty to lead mersing to greater heights. She has the right qualifications to stand in the so called UMNO stronghold and hope that she will give the other contenders a run for their money. Good luck mdm Fatin Zulaikha.
