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."
'Umno in murky waters of bribery' - Hadi on why PAS is picking PN
Friday, October 14, 2022
Can't buy pas lie....
For they are always after pie....
What party they will for pie, forge ties...
With fading political clout, this lout will bind with anyone, sigh..
Flipflop pas will flip the pie away, to claim another and say to rakyat ""goodbye"" - Loga
Malaysiakini : It appears that the Umno-PAS political cooperation has reached a
point of no return as the Islamist party’s president Abdul Hadi Awang
divulges reasons why the pact fell through.
Hadi had likened the Muafakat Nasional (MN) collaboration to consuming ‘unripe durian’, which could cause stomach discomfort. While
disclosing reasons why PAS chose to work with Perikatan Nasional (PN)
instead of Barisan Nasional (BN), he said his party finds it burdensome
to accept Umno, which he deemed to be a ‘murky’ party.
“We
(PAS) are not with BN because there it is still murky… the confusion is
that there are still bribe takers. And there are those who are greedy
and wish to govern again. Read it all here, subscription required.......
Sarawak Report : One has to remind oneself that this fellow considers himself a
scholar. Sadly his efforts to justify his party’s conduct are laughable
and lamentable.
PAS do not want to lose their perks of office, bought by betraying
their constituents as the original opposition frogs. They are clearly
relishing the rewards (listen agin to Muhyiddin’s tactics for buying
their loyalty) of being part of the present unelected coup government.
Therefore, PAS does not want to face the test of Parliament, let alone
another election, by ending the bogus emergency designed to keep them
all in office and kleptocrating away.
So, to hell with democracy, which is what he is saying, he wants to stay in office majority or no majority.
The excuse is that PAS, according to Hadi, has more ‘integrity’ than
those parties who did not lie to their voters and defect after the
election and who actually won the election. In fact, he has the brass
neck to say other parties are the liars, which he deplores even though
he has admitted that he lied about his allegiances at GE14 and claimed ‘Allah is OK’ with his lying for the political benefit of the party.
By his own words and deeds there is not an ounce of basic moral
understanding or integrity in this political party leader who claims to
have religion on his side – he has not even the wit to disguise it.
