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."
PAS non-Muslim wing chief met Hadi on 'racist corruption' remark By Alyaa Alhadjri, Low Choon Chyuan & N Faizal Ghazali

Abalone eat Scallop : So Mr Bala, do you know who was the rich and famous bribe giver of 90m to your boss aka hadiawang that has extremely high islamic values? And who was/were the bribe givers of 2.6b to bosskuku? Were they non-Muslims?
Sebuk : Dei Bala . Have some self respect. If Hadi has mis spoke, please don’t explain otherwise. So degrading
Malaysiakini : PAS MUKTAMAR | Amid the outcry over
PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang reportedly linking non-Muslims to “roots
of corruption”, the party’s non-Muslim supporters’ wing (DHPP) said
today that they understood the matter differently.
DHPP chief N
Balasubramaniam said he personally met with Hadi a day after the
controversial statement about non-Muslims and non-bumiputera which was
made on Facebook on Aug 20.
“So actually what he (Hadi) said was, the ones who gave bribes were the rich and famous. “After that, we understood his meaning and so we from DHPP did not raise this issue as a big issue,” he said.
Balasubramaniam (above) was speaking at a press conference
during a DHPP gathering held in Sungai Petani, Kedah, ahead of the main
party gathering tomorrow. When it was pointed out that many
parties were upset by Hadi's remarks, he said, “We must understand.
Where PAS is ruling, there have been no racial issues.”
“What Hadi said, certain words have been taken to create a big issue,” he added.
