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."
Four Years After Samuel Paty's Beheading: His Sister Speaks Out as France Fails to Confront the Rising Islamic Threat (Video)
Thursday, October 17, 2024
RAIR : “They cut off his head… I refused to believe it was him until my
mother screamed, ‘Yes, it’s him. They slaughtered him!’” — Samuel Paty’s
sister, recounting the harrowing moment she confronted the brutal
murder of her brother.
Today marks the four-year anniversary of the brutal Islamic murder of
Samuel Paty, a 47-year-old French middle school teacher who was
beheaded by Abdoullakh Anzorov, an 18-year-old Russian Muslim Chechen
migrant, on October 16, 2020. As he carried out the beheading, Anzorov
screamed “Allahu Akbar,” the Islamic war cry.
Samuel Paty’s crime? Teaching his annual course on freedom of speech,
where he showed his students some of the infamous Charlie Hebdo
cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammad. These same cartoons incited the
deadly 2015 Islamic terrorist attack on the Charlie Hebdo office,
killing 12 people in retaliation for the satirical portrayal of Islam.
Paty’s murder is part of a continuing pattern of violent reprisals
against those who defy Islamic law, serving as a grim warning of the
escalating threat France faces. His death remains a symbol of the
state’s failure to confront Islamic terror and protect free expression.
A Sister’s Heartbreaking Testimony
On the evening of Samuel Paty’s killing, his sister, Mickaëlle Paty, a
nurse anesthetist, received a chilling message from their mother:
“Samuel may have been killed in front of his school. Call me back on the
landline.” At the time, she was working in an operating room, and the
surreal nature of the message left her in disbelief. Was her brother
merely wounded, or was he truly gone? Her mind raced with dread,
clinging to the hope that it was some misunderstanding.
When she arrived at the morgue, the reality of the situation
shattered her. The sight of her brother’s disfigured body, his face
marked with deep wounds and his decapitation concealed by a sheet pulled
to his neck, was unbearable. “I didn’t recognize him,” she recalled in
horror, unable to accept that the mutilated body before her was Samuel.
Only when her mother screamed, “Yes, it’s him,” did the devastating
truth set in. Samuel Paty had been slaughtered by a Muslim for upholding
the very principles of freedom and secularism that he taught in his
classroom.
