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."
Gerakan wants to contest 30 seats in upcoming state polls

This guy has forgotten, that they named a durian Koh Tsu Koo, which meant "tiada biji"
Malaysiakini : Gerakan is planning to contest 30 state seats in the upcoming state elections.
According to its president Dominic Lau, the party has sorted about 90 percent of its seat selections.
“Gerakan
has chosen 30 seats to contest in Kedah, Penang, Selangor, and Negeri
Sembilan,” Lau, who is also Perikatan Nasional (PN) deputy chairperson,
was quoted telling Utusan Malaysia.
He said Gerakan will
contest in all but two states where the polls will be held, namely
Kelantan and Terengganu, which is helmed by its PN ally PAS.
Vijay47 : Your generosity in asking for only 30 seats is inspiring. I am moved to tears.
JBond : Please consult Tun MM before you lose all your deposits. Gerakan is history the day they hand the state to DAP. Compare the 3 decades vs the 10+ years the 2 party ran the state. Penang people realized their mistakes in allowing your party to run the state for that long.
Cogito Ergo Sum : Thanks for voluntarily donating 30 election deposits to the government coffers. After you have learnt your bitter lesson in the up coming polls, apologise to the people for abandoning your original foundation principles. To be representative of all Malaysians.
KickOutPASandPN : WE Voters will make very sure that not a single candidate from Gerakan voted in during the Penang, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan state election. WE will make sure that they will lose their deposits. One vote to Gerakan = One vote to racist and religious extremist PAS.
