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."
Houston: Muslim migrant hired hitman to murder cop, wanted murder to happen after Ramadan
Thursday, June 28, 2018
Jihad Watch : Ramadan is the month of jihad,
so ordinarily the killing an infidel police officer would fit right in,
but perhaps Mohammed Mohamed suspected that killing a police officer
for wanting him to bring his business up to code wasn’t exactly a pious
act, and so it would best be kept until after the holy month.
Nonetheless, the combination of a devout commitment to the religion and
murderous intent is something we have seen again and again among some
Muslims, and seldom, if ever, among adherents of other religions. “Mohammed Mohamed: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know,” by Jessica McBride, Heavy, June 26, 2018 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Mohammed Mohamed is accused of trying to hire a hitman to
murder a Houston police officer because he was upset the officer was
giving him code violation tickets for his business, a plot that went
awry when authorities learned about it before it could take place.
Authorities faked the officer’s murder to convince Mohamed that the
police officer was dead, the chief says. Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo held a press conference to announce
the arrest on June 26, 2018, and he also released a mugshot of the
suspect. Mohamed, 47, is facing a charge of solicitation for capital
murder, the chief said. Here’s what you need to know:
1. Mohamed Is Accused of Hiring an Undercover Officer Posing as a Hitman for $2,000
Acevedo said the officer who was targeted is a community police
officer. He said such officers enforce quality of life issues. The
officer has been on the force for about 20 years… The suspect wanted the officer dead because he thought the officer
was interfering with his business, said the police chief. He said it
would cost him thousands of dollars to bring the business up to code.
At
first, the suspect wanted someone to disable the officer by throwing
acid in his face, alleged the chief. Then, he decided that wasn’t
enough. He wanted “him killed because that’s the only way this would go
away. The suspect specifically wanted to hire a hitman,” said the police
chief. He was willing to pay $2,000 for the murder, said the chief.
2. Mohamed, Who Owns a Shipping Business, Wanted the Murder to Happen After Ramadan, Authorities Allege
…He “wanted our officer dead. He was adamant that he would not meet
the hit man until the end of Ramadan,” Acevedo alleged, saying that
Mohamed allegedly hired a hitman “because he got tickets.” Ramadan, the
ninth month of the Islamic calendar, is observed by Muslims throughout
the world as a month involving fasts….
The chief noted that authorities are hoping for no bail in the case
because Mohammed Mohamed “has ties back home in Egypt” making him a
potential flight risk. “We’re hopeful that no bail is given to this
individual,” the chief said adding that the officer “was targeted for
doing his sworn duty.”
