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."
Syrian Apocalypto: Terrorists Rip Out a Heart and Eat It
Thursday, March 20, 2025
INN : In “Apocalypto”, Mel Gibson's film about the Mayans that was hit by a
wave of controversy for the horrifying scenes of violence depicted by
the director, there is a civilization in which barbarism dominates, man
is worth nothing and human sacrifice is practiced.
As the
German Jewish philosopher Leo Strauss said, lashing out at relativism,
"if everything is the same, then cannibalism is just a matter of taste". I
have seen a vide of a Syrian terrorist who cuts the chest of a man who
is still alive while others hold him down, extracts his heart and eats
it for the cameras.
The BBC had already interviewed a Syrian terrorist who tears out a heart and eats it. An appeal by French intellectuals and scholars was published in Le Point:
“Several thousand Alawite civilians have been massacred in recent days
in Syria by the forces of the Islamist regime. Newborns, children,
elderly people, women, men: hundreds of videos, authenticated by various
press outlets and NGOs, testify to systematic summary executions with
the clear will to annihilate a people considered heretical”.
The Spectator called it “the massacre of the innocents” in the only European cover dedicated to this barbarity. American
scholar Joshua Landis published the list of the dead in just one
village, Snawbar: 196 people. Entire Alawite families wiped out. CNN also reviewed the footage and found 80 bodies in just one village.
