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."

Veteran 1972 : That's the biggest load of bovine manure I have ever heard of. Makes my cojones wrinkle up with laughter.
Kajang pigeon : Most of the comments were removed and as usual nobody had anything positive to say about pmx who seems to be the most unpopular pm ( even a dope like Sabri didnāt get this much flack ) Wonder what GLC this this apple polisher would get for this rubbish article ? ā¦.
TheSidth : 100 % disagree
100 million free for gazans while he ignores PPR poverty
Only 130million for b40 indians while NR gets 160 million fine discount after stealing billions
No action on PAS !
Hadi awang never charged
10as for NM kids to get guarenteed matriculation although MM have MARA for themselves and just need 5 credits for most courses.nothing done to address educational needs for orang asal and NM
PMX has been useless for M40 and B40 orang asal and NM
PMX is lame duck and a coward
Headhunter : Nice to have someone dedicated to polishing your apple.
