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."
PAS condemns Nga
Kor Ming for making āextremeā and āemotionalā statements, including
allegations that PAS is ādeviantā, āspreading heretical teachingsā, and
āblocking Christmas celebrationsā.
The controversy
stemmed from PAS Youth questioning Muslim participation in a Christmas
event organised by the Housing and Local Government Ministry, citing
National Fatwa Council guidelines.
PAS announced plans to pursue legal action against Nga, accusing him of defamation.
PAS
has strongly criticised Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor
Ming for making what it calls āextremeā and āemotionalā remarks in a
recent public statement against the party.
NMSparks : A day without bullying people of other faiths, is not a day lived. It's the case here and everywhere around the globe. People are watching and getting tired your dramas.
mosquitobrain : PAS Taki, go ahead and sue Teluk Intan. Kalau kalah, Teluk Intan bisa kumpul ratus ribu dalam dua hari. Tapi kurang ajar Permatang Pauh sampai ini hari belum dapat kumpul RM800k! PAS tak malu ke?
Honest : PAS is truly a party of Talibans. They don't care about harmony but repression of non Muslims/non Malays. Let this be a wake up call to all non Muslims, Sabahan and Sarawakians why PAS is our nation enemy number 1. They will do everything to repress your rights until Malaysia becomes a Taliban country
MarioT : Two soldiers charged with raping a 10 year old girl in the Kota Bharu Court.
What sort of moral values are you imparting to your people?
Put your house in order before picking on others who are celebrating their festival.
HOYOHOYO : Hello Takiyuddin
Please go ahead to sue. Greeting and celebrating Christmas is contentious in civil court. The minister has plenty of lawyers to defend his case.
Stupidity is repeating the same action hoping for a different outcome. The Siti Mastura case wasn't a lesson to PAS?
mgpowl : Hello, Taki, the fatwas are for Muslims not non-Muslims so keep non-Muslims out of your narrow-mindedness.
Also, the government holds national Christmas celebrations. Whatās the issue if ministries hold non-Muslim functions?
Your people started this and you get angry with the response. You asked for it.
Ya, take legal action. Letās see what the courts say.
