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."
Man hurt in stray dog operation probed for obstructing govt officials
Saturday, March 25, 2023
Malaysiakini : An elderly man who was allegedly injured by Petaling Jaya City
Council (MBPJ) enforcement officers during an operation to capture stray
dogs is now being investigated for obstructing government officials
from carrying out their duties.
The incident, which occurred at Taman Kanagapuram in Petaling Jaya, was captured on video and had since gone viral.
In
a statement, district police chief Fakhrudin Hamid said the man had
closed the gates to his premises with the stray dogs inside when the
officers were attempting to catch the canines following complaints.
"The operation team failed to catch the stray dogs because they were blocked by the man.
Koel : So the senior citizen within his own premises was "accidentally hit" by an iron rod, was he? What sort of crap is this? Can we have some clarity on this please? Can some card carrying clown claiming to be working for mbpj force his way into our private premises?
I think we have a cause to be concerned because this is opening the door to anyone with fake ID being able to enter people's homes or business premises. And even if they are legit, can mbpj force its way into our homes? I would like the MP and the aduns for the area step up to assure people that such high handed actions are not permitted under the law.
And what is mbpj doing to immediately suspend this idiot who hit a senior citizen with an iron rod - a citizen who is also a ratepayer who pays the worker and the council their wages. This is unbelievable arrogance from a council that should show humility and accountability to ratepayers. This is not the way to go about it.
Betul Malu bukan Maluapa : Can the PJ District Police Chief explained how Workers frim MBPJ can illegally enter someone's compound without a Court Order..that is Trespassing and assaulting the Owner which is another offence..Please get your priorities right PDRM..
Watchdog : The old man accidentally hit his face onto the rod. Case closed
DonGetMeWrong : What about stray cats? It is only fair that local councils should double up both role to catch stray dogs and cats. Cats do cause nuisance to public too. It shows they are biased as dogs are considered haram but not cats. It is more of a religious unfair treatment
