Rudyard Kipling"
āWhen 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 soldierā
General Douglas MacArthur"
āWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā
āIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā āOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
āThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā
āMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā āThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
āNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
āIt 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."
Lol but they're supporting and standing by the Palestinian but won't take them in as refugees. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Talib are causing unrest ever since they were elected into the US Congress. Not the first time I have heard this. Basically no country wants to take a gamble on getting the good apples amongst the bad so they adopt a zero allowance policy.
Arabs don't love Palestinians, they only use them to propagate their failed ideology. This region seems to have always been in chaos since forever. Egypt has its own political and economic challenges, and may not have the capacity to absorb the large number of refugees that would come from Gaza.
Jordan, too, may have limited capacity to provide support, and may be concerned about its own security. It's also worth noting that these countries may have a complex relationship with Hamas, the governing body in Gaza, which could make them hesitant to get too involved.
Are those who identify as āPalestiniansā considered āArabsā? Itās not that simple, according to Saudi author and influencer, Rawaf al-Saeen:

Exactly.. they are pretty much gypsies and are divided into numerous factions.. if the Palestinian get their own country all they will do is fight between each and never build anything meaningful
