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."
Hisyam leads legal team in bicycle tragedy appeal case By Hidir Reduan Abdul Rashid
Friday, March 17, 2023
Malaysiakini : Hisyam Teh Poh Teik now heads the defence team of motorist Sam Ke
Ting who is seeking to quash her guilty verdict as well as a six-year
jail sentence and RM6,000 fine for reckless driving that killed eight
teen cyclists in Johor in 2017.
The veteran lawyer of over four
decades confirmed this to the media in relation to his client’s upcoming
appeal set to be heard by the Court of Appeal on March 31. Hisyam (above, left) said that he would be leading counsel for the appellant together with co-counsel Harvinderjit Singh.
Hisyam
represents Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for the deputy prime minister’s ongoing
Yayasan Akalbudi corruption trial, and the Foreign Visa System (VLN)
which saw Zahid being acquitted.
Geram : If Sam Ke Ting is a Muslim and the poor kids are Chinese or Indians. Dah lama takda case. This is the truth and nothing but the truth in Malaysia tanah air cinta ku .
Mano : I was going to post
"If Sam Ke Ting is a Muslim" in the same scenario, it would also have been a different scenario now.
But Geram, yours is better version.
Truth be told as we see itin our Bolehland!!
RKR : In Malaysia, whenever the victims happen to be Malays, the case will take a racial twist, just like in fireman Adam's case. The nons will be portrayed as racist and murderers.
In Ipoh, an old Indian security guard who was guarding the condo's swimming pool during the lockdown period was assaulted by a Malay man. The guard died some months later from the injuries. The guard was just doing his job preventing people from using the pool during lockdown.
The guard's family lost its breadwinner and the Malay man walked away free. Assuming Sam was a Malay in this case, she could walk away free too!
IndigoHorse9495 : She should be acquited because what the first judge said is true.Was she really reckless or the kids whose parents were irresponsible reckless and guilty?
Even if she is acquited she has to live with her conscience pricking her with guilt for the rest of her life.This will be a sentence none of us want.I really feel for her and pray she can lead a happy peaceful life.God bless🙏
