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."
Corrupt ministers will be sacked immediately, Anwar says By Isabelle Leong
Sunday, December 11, 2022
Malaysiakini : Ministers will be sacked immediately if they are found to be involved in corruption, said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
He said he recently issued a stern warning to the newly appointed ministers, stressing the importance of good governance. “I
was the first to talk about good governance. I told leaders of all
component parties that if there are (corruption) cases during my
administration as prime minister, they (ministers) will be fired
immediately,” he said.
He was speaking during a religious meeting
at the prime minister’s official residence, the Seri Perdana Complex in
Putrajaya, this evening. “I will not tolerate it. This is not a political statement, this is my belief.
“I was thrown into prison, beaten half to death, tortured for a long time... not to brag, win, and become prime minister.”
Eaglebaby05 : This is the way -- on the other hand Maha used to encourage corruption so as to use that against them to make them loyal to him ! My ( corruption ) way or you are dead !
Please make sure that the Ministers are serious. Wish D S Anwar had been PM 12 years ago !
