“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."
Jihad Watch : A monstrous human rights abuse, but the international media would only care if the roles were reversed. “No Christians Allowed: Muslim UN Officials Block Syrian Christian Refugees from Getting Help,” by Dale Hurd, CBN News, December 4, 2019:
LONDON – Christian Syrian refugees have told CBN News that they have
been blocked from getting help from the United Nations Refugee Agency,
the UNHCR, by Muslim UN officials in Jordan. One of the refugees, Hasan, a Syrian convert to Christianity, told us
in a phone call that Muslim UN camp officials “knew that we were
Muslims and became Christians and they dealt with us with persecution
and mockery. They didn’t let us into the office. They ignored our
request.”
Hasan and his family are now in hiding, afraid that they will be
arrested by Jordanian police, or even killed. Converting to Christianity
is a serious crime in Jordan. A clear pattern of discrimination by the United Nations refugee
agency in Jordan against Christians. And it appears to be one reason
that while tens of thousands of Syrian Muslim war refugees have been
settled in the United States and Britain, only a small number have been
Christian.
And the two governments that could stop this persecution of Christian
refugees – the US and Britain – have done little to nothing about it. A Former Archbishop of Canterbury Says “Enough” Lord George Carey is suing Britain’s home office alleging that
“politically correct” officials have been “institutionally biased”
against Christian refugees. He also wants to find out why out of
60-thousand Syrian war refugees accepted into the United States and
Britain in 2014, almost none were Christians. Lord Carey’s attorney, Paul Diamond, explains the case:
“You have this absurd situation where the scheme is set up to help
Syrian refugees and the people most in need, Christians who have been
“genocided,” they can’t even get into the U.N. camps to get the food. If
you enter and say I am a Christian or convert, the Muslim U.N. guards
will block you [from] getting in and laugh at you and mock you and even
threaten you. Christian Refugee Viewed as the Enemy by Muslim UN Officials Another Syrian refugee, Timothy, who told us he became a Christian
after seeing Jesus in a dream, said he was also blocked from entering a
refugee camp by Muslim UN officials. “All of the United Nations officials, most of them, 99 percent, they
are Muslims,” Timothy explained from Jordan, “and they were treating us
as enemies.”
Diamond says, “Sunni Muslim officials have blocked the way. They’ve
laughed at them, threatened them, said ‘You shouldn’t have converted.
You’re an idiot for converting. You get what you get,’ words to that
effect.” Carey says by doing nothing, western governments are complicit in what calls “the steady crucifixion of Middle East Christians.” “And no simple measures are taken by both the British and the
American government,’ Diamond says, “It would be simple just to open up a
refugee camp for religious minorities, for Christians, Yazidis,
whatever they are, and they’d be safe. But no one does that.”…
Swedish attorney Gabriel Donner who represents Christian asylum
seekers, says Sweden is now deporting up to one-third of Christian
refugees back to Muslim nations where they are likely to be imprisoned
or killed….
President Trump told CBN News in 2017 that Christian refugees would
be given priority. But Muslim governments officially classify Christians
as security threats, causing their asylum applications to western
countries to be rejected…
