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."
Is Priyanka Gandhi leader of nation,? Why should we listen or comment, her tweet? Simply ignore her. Well said Major sir, unless we become violent our generation cannot thrive. This non-violence does not work that is absolutely rubbish. We have to follow our great warriors who had fighted violently. Remember she is a Muslim, daughter of Rajiv Gandhi.
I am a Black South African I totally agree with you the South African government are so enamored with China 🇨🇳 and Russia sometimes I think that South Africa 🇿🇦 is a province of China 🇨🇳. We even have Chinese police stations in South Africa 🇿🇦. Dear Mamjor, the first time Netanyahu was elected as prime minister of Israel, he pledged that he would go after anyone who harms a Jew, that he would respond with equal measure. One must remember that he himself was a descendant of a holocaust victim.
Hitler himself claimed that all misfortunes of Germany was caused by the Jews, even the defeat of WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles which barred Germany's rearmament. He became famous by blaming the Jews for all Germany's failures. I can't imagine , having lost 6 million precious human lives ,while the Western world watched, would Israel ever trust anyone for support?. Major I'm for one happy to hear your support for Israel.
