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."
Puad doubts govt survival after Amanah call to reject Najib pardon
Sunday, April 30, 2023
Guess he must be one of the "40 thieves?????".....
Malaysiakini : Umno supreme council member Mohd Puad Zarkashi is the latest leader
from the party to censure Amanah over its call for a rejection of the
application to pardon former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak.
Puad
said Amanah’s actions do not inspire confidence that the current
cooperation between BN and Pakatan Harapan at the federal level can
last. “Amanah is only worthy of being political allies, but not comrades in our struggle.
“...It
is difficult to be allied with Amanah. We can only be allies. Allies
that cannot guarantee the unity government can be maintained. Allies
turning on their allies,” Puad (above) said in a statement today. Amanah communications director Khalid Samad earlier released a
statement from his party pleading with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the
Pardons Board to reject the application for a royal pardon freeing
Najib.
Najib is currently serving a 12-year jail sentence for his conviction over the SRC International corruption case. The Umno supreme council has since decided unanimously to submit an application to the Agong to pardon Najib.
In
his statement today, Puad said Khalid’s statement about rejecting
Najib’s pardon should be taken as Amanah’s official stand, as Amanah
president Mohamad Sabu had not come out to deny it.
AyuhMy : Ali baba-jib and his minions should be fed to the crocodiles. They are a shame to the bangsa, agama dan negara..!
DonGetMeWrong : The arrogance of Umno is still showing. They have been purged by the Rakyat but yet they feel they still call the shot. They are out of touch with reality.
They hold 30 seats which hardly can command any demand. Without Umno, Anwar still has the majority in Parliament if others stay status quo. Umno's Malay has no moral or dignity by appealing for a pardon for Najib.
Don't they feel shameful when their ex-president is a kleptocrate? The world has convicted and prosecuted majority of people involved and still work is in progress to hunt down more people who are involved but what is Malaysia doing?
To shamefully free a man who is embroidered in the world's biggest " heist" in history. Umno should be cast into the deepest ocean of no return.
truthhurts : Mohd Puad Zarkashi you can never change at all. NR is a convicted criminal and you support a royal pardon for him. That is why UMNO is going downhill.
