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."
Exposed: Malaysia’s New PM Advances U.S. Islamism By Sam Westrop
Monday, November 13, 2023
Islamism News : With a founding figure of American Islamism
now holding high office in Malaysia, it seems likely that this
important far-Eastern country will soon become a major supporter and key
ally of Western Islamism.
On November 24, Anwar Ibrahim became Malaysia’s tenth prime minister, following a tumultuous few decades waiting in the wings, during which time
he served several jail terms, purportedly on trumped-up charges, and
has been at the center of extraordinary political dramas featuring
unusual alliances and stunning betrayals.
Largely
ignored amid excitement in international media over the emergence of a
purported “reformist,” it is worth noting that Ibrahim is in fact an Islamist.
Ibrahim’s radical roots lie with Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (Muslim Youth Movement of Malaysia), or ABIM, which he co-founded in 1971. A thesis published by Georgetown University (where Ibrahim happens to be a senior fellow) examines ABIM’s role as an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, a violent international Islamist movement regarded by Western policymakers as a key driver of radicalization and terror.
Ibrahim’s Islamism includes fervently anti-Jewish ideas and open alignment with a genocidal terror group.* A proud supporter of Hamas, Ibrahim has previously attacked a “Jewish-controlled” public relations firm, alleged “Zionist” conspiracies influencing his opponents and
“directly involved in the running of the government,” and he has
boasted of his efforts to “remove renowned Islamic scholar Dr Shaikh
Yusuf Qardhawi’s name from [the U.S.] terrorist blacklist.”
The
late Sheikh Qaradawi served as spiritual leader of the Muslim
Brotherhood, and was best known, the Counter-Extremism Project notes, for advocating “the murder of Americans, gay people, and Jews through his writings, speeches, and fatwas.”
In a 2020 photo, Anwar Ibrahim (right), embraces Ismail Haniyeh, leader of the violent terror group Hamas.
Such
hatreds, it must be pointed out, are not new for Malaysian statesmen.
Ibrahim’s own former mentor, former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, has
long served as a vociferous anti-Semite himself, with an occasional but
highly noticeable habit of Holocaust denial.
What
is new, however, is that Anwar Ibrahim is not just a Malaysian
politician, but an important figure within American Islamism as well.
Ibrahim serves as the chairman of the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT), often referred to as the leading thinktank of the Muslim Brotherhood in the West. Ibrahim, in fact, co-founded IIIT.
