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."
Malaysiakini : “A bully will always pick on a smaller person.” - Tajuddin Rasdi of UCSI University
COMMENT
| Khairy Jamaluddin thinks that Umno Youth chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh
is merely doing his job but should now stand down because he has made
his point.
What exactly is Akmal’s job and what point has he made?
The recent failed terrorist attack against a KK Mart outlet is a sign
of things to come.
Make no mistake, this was not merely causing
mischief. This was a failed terrorist attack because the culprit wanted
to send a religious message to the populace of the country.
This is exactly the kind of terrorist attack that happened when a DAP political operative’s cars were set on fire. The reason behind that was the same, that a religious message was sent to intimidate the populace.
Khairy
also said if the Malay Muslim outrage continued, this would feed into
negative racial narratives. Of course, this is what Akmal wants. In
defending himself against charges that he was a bully, he claimed he was
a defender and not a bully.
He said - “A defender is someone who protects the weak from being bullied… Islam and Muslims have been insulted.
“You
can say whatever you want to protect these tycoons, but you will not be
able to stop the public from continuing the boycott and expressing
their objections. I only have the people to defend, not tycoons to
protect.”
Sealthedeal : Agreed Commander. He is a dangerous bully and now screams death threat against him when it was only expressed as an opinion. He is a coward and directly responsible for the incitement causing retaliatory acts by religious whacko's.
Is the average Malay up in arms over five pairs of socks? No they are not. They know the situation has been blown up and the biased PDRM has acted accordingly.
Arrest Akmal for incitement!
