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."
Sanusi contends speech backed by records on Anwar’s sodomy case By Hidir Reduan Abdul Rashid
Friday, March 17, 2023
Malaysiakini : Kedah Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor contended that his 15th
general election (GE15) campaign speech was based on public records
about Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s Sodomy 1 case and other
moral-related matters.
In his statement of defence against Tambun
MP Anwar’s defamation suit, the PAS state chief said that he is ready to
prove in court the contents of his speech by referring to the 2004
Federal Court remark about the plaintiff’s sodomy matter, among other
matters, widely known by the general public.
According to the court filing made on Feb 13 at the Alor Setar High Court and sighted by Malaysiakini, Jeneri assemblyperson Sanusi (photo above, right) cited the defences of justification, qualified privilege, and fair comment.
Justification
is a defence that the statements or allegations are factual and, if
proven successfully in court, these would act as an absolute defence
against the defamation action.
