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."
Govt, police appeal to prevent Amri's wife accessing classified report By Hidir Reduan Abdul Rashid
Wednesday, June 07, 2023
Jibby was the PM and Ponogro was Home Minister
Malaysiakini : The government and the police have gone to the Court of Appeal to
prevent Amri Che Mat’s wife from having limited access to the classified
special task force report into the activist’s enforced disappearance in
2016.
Counsel Larissa Ann-Louis this morning confirmed that the two respondents have filed the notice of appeal against the decision of the High Court in Kuala Lumpur on May 9 to allow Norhayati Mohd Ariffin (above, left) limited access to the report classified under the Official Secrets Act 1972.
The
lawyer for Amri’s wife added that the High Court last week had also
allowed an application by the government and the police to stay the May 9
ruling, pending disposal of the appeal. In effect, this means
that the respondents need not allow Norhayati to have limited access to
the report, pending the appeal at the Court of Appeal.
On May 9, High Court judge Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh allowed
Norhayati’s application for limited access to the report, in order to
strengthen her separate main legal action against the police and government over Amri’s enforced disappearance sometime around midnight on Nov 24, 2016.
On June 26, 2019, two months after the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) concluded
that Amri was a victim of enforced disappearance by the police, the
Home Ministry formed a special task force to re-investigate the matter.
However,
there was a lack of updates on the report, leading to the civil society
group Citizens Against Enforced Disappearance (Caged) in 2021 to urge
the government to release the task force's findings. The task force was formed during the Pakatan Harapan administration headed by then-prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad in 2019.
Caged’s media statement that urged the release of the findings was
issued on April 2, 2021, during Muhyiddin Yassin’s Perikatan Nasional
administration. Following the 15th general election in November
last year, the government is now led by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim,
who took over from Ismail Sabri Yaakob.
Suhakam inquiry
On
April 3, 2019, Suhakam’s public inquiry concluded that Amri and pastor
Raymond Koh, who vanished in 2016 and 2017, respectively, were victims
of enforced disappearance. The three-member panel unanimously
concluded that the perpetrators were members of the Special Branch from
police headquarters Bukit Aman in Kuala Lumpur.
In relation to
Norhayati’s main civil action against the police and the government over
Amri’s disappearance, it is set to go on trial from June 19 to 22. Senior federal counsel Zetty Zurina Kamaruddin appeared for the government and police in the legal action by Amri’s family.
Not Surprising : Thumbs down for appealing. When something is done wrongly, bite the bullet and admit it. Even though Rakyat will be angry, they will also understand at the same time that the govt has the guts to admit wrongdoings and take action no matter how difficult it is.
You will then have voters confidence. A wife is being prevented from knowing more about her husband's disappearance? Cruel.
Robbie98 : This action by the government and police is plainly wrong . Suhakham a govt approved body concluded that the enforced disappearance appeared to be spearheaded by special branch . The police has no direct interest in these two people to kidnap them and make them disappear . The question has to be who ordered them to do it and why ?.
Reminds me of a lady who was blown up with C4 for which 2 policemen who followed orders are incarcerated . We talk about a moral law abiding god fearing country yet our actions are totàlly contrary . Please let justice prevail and bring closure to the greiving families .
Steven Ong : So, dear fellow Malaysians , don't think that the Myanmar military junta government or North Korea Kim's government is vicious and brutal, but also this fake madani government.
By right all facts and truths, outside of the security of the country , concerning the welfare of the citizens of Malaysia should be revealed , so that we may all live in peace and prosperity . By barring access to informations and as alleged by Suhakam, the police and government are admitting that what Suhakam pointed out is true .
Verdict - The police is afraid of something in the reports.
The madani slogan can now be dump into the dung pit. PAS and PN cannot get involved in this shameful episode in Malaysia as it is linked to the religious weapon they are using and the religion they are claiming as guardians. When we are just beginning to start a new governance with hope and now this sinister attempt happened.
Is it still an old governmnet? The hope is now in question.
This only had created more suspicion than solving the problems in Malaysia. .Example , is Umno members involved in this as its also suspected that Umno members was involved in the LCS scandal. So, the alleged troll farm in the police force is true? Wonder if the troll farm is still operating? Or worst , the alleged deep state is a powerful influencial one.
