Rudyard Kipling"
āWhen 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 soldierā
General Douglas MacArthur"
āWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā
āIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā āOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
āThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā
āMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā āThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
āNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
āIt 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."
Gerakan rather sit out polls than use 'moon' logo in PAS states
Monday, October 17, 2022
Gerakan is grrrakan.....
Spoiling the party like peranakan.....
Umnos honcho likes to split votes like pelican.....
When voters turnout scarce if possible in sampan.....
Looks like they are only for some suntan.....
For who will vote for gerakan when they just make a call, from sinking in waters , pan pan - Loga
Malaysiakini : Gerakan will sit out of the 15th general election (GE15) in Kedah,
Kelantan, and Terengganu if Perikatan Nasional (PN) decides to use the
PAS logo to contest there.
Party deputy president Oh Tong Keong said they will still use the PN logo as Gerakan joined the coalition in February 2021. However, he said it is the partyās principle and bottom line not to adopt the PAS logo in the polls.
Gerakan
will never be like DAP, he said, a party without any bottom line that
used the logo of its ally PKR in the last general election just to win,
he said.
On that note, he said, his party will only adopt PNās logo like how
it adopted BNās logo when it was formerly with the coalition but Gerakan
will not use the logo of its allies but not using the logo of its
former allies, such as the logos of Umno or MCA. āGerakan
reiterates that its candidates in both state and parliamentary
constituencies would adopt the PN logo, but not the logo of the allies.
Loser, Gerakan deputy president Oh Tong Keong
āIf
this is the final decision made by PN, we would rather withdraw from
the election and there is no room for negotiation,ā said Oh in a
statement today. Meanwhile, Oh said Penang Gerakan will adhere to
PNās decision if its request to use its own logo in the northern state
is rejected.
Lionking : It is a dead party and might as well dismantle.
bystander2 : it doesn't really what logo you use gerakan, you'll still lose your deposit... only difference if you use pas logo is that; the nons will make you'll get zero votes in those constituencies
MerdekaMerdekaMerdeka : What! Gerakan tidak akan bergerak in PRU15?
You should call yourselves Kaku, then. Harus Kaku buat selama lamanya, itu paling elok.
Anonymous11223344 : Gerakan please don't waste your time and money to contest in Penang. The Gerakan leaders' courage to speak out for all Malaysians is shameful.
Sun :
Makes no difference> Either way, you are not going to win a single seat. But you have put yourself in a strange situation. Metaphorically speaking, you decide to take PAS as a bride but are refusing to sleep with it?
NC : A very complicated arrangement using own logo in stronghold areas and using coalition logo in grey areas.... Oh! Malaysia ku.....
