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 : GE15 | Pakatan Harapan Sungai Buloh
candidate R Ramanan remains silent on the threat made by his opponent
Khairy Jamaluddin to expose and destroy him if he recycles the
controversy surrounding the ECM Libra issue.
When met at his
campaign trail in Kota Damansara today, Ramanan declined to comment on
Khairy's speech on Sunday, which a short video clip of it has been
circulated on social media.
The video clip showed Khairy warning the PKR candidate against recycling a slanderous old issue. "If they continue to slander me, and if they continue to recycle all baseless accusations, I will fight back.
"We know the background of this PKR candidate and we can look into it. We can even expose it tonight (Sunday). "But
I am telling (you), don't test my patience. If you test my patience, I
will go after you and I will destroy you," warned Khairy.
The BN candidate said he wanted the election campaign to be conducted in a healthy manner. "I want to do this campaign like a gentleman and in an orderly manner.
IndigoCamel7131 : KJ is fooling the people by saying that BN dumped him in sg Buloh but according to Zahid its KJ that requested for SB. Wayang ke KJ ? The skeletons in KJ almari will eventually be exposed. Mana ada menteri Umno yang bersih ?
DonGetMeWrong : Don't just talk. If you have the "bullet" to destroy him then go ahead. This is how you can bring down your opponent. But have you what it takes? KJ you did not choose Sungai Buloh.
You were forced out of your comfort zone. You have no choice. Take it or leave it. A conformist like you will not make any difference to Umno even if you are so lucky to win Sungai Buloh. Umno will never changed. Not now not in a thousand years.
RedGopher0486 : KJ should sing like a canary if he has the facts. If not just zip up. Don't shoot hot air.
Majority must safeguard Minority Rights : I really love this. Both these candidates better expose each other. We would love to hear it. Don't just issue childish threats. Btw I saw the video and you sound so silly. Trying to look like a cowboy...lol
