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."
Frontpage Magazine : Increasingly, the modern history of Sweden reads like something
concocted by a stand-up comedian with a taste for black humor.
Take, for
example, the official claim that Sweden has “the first feminist
government in the world,” complete with a distinctly “feminist foreign
policy.” Yeah, it’s so feminist, as I noted
in February 2019, that when a gaggle of Swedish diplomats traveled to
Iran, the women all wore headscarves and refrained from shaking hands
with their bearded hosts.
Moreover, although violent Muslim immigrants
are making more and more neighborhoods so dangerous that, as I quoted
one woman saying in 2017, people “sleep with a hammer beside the bed,”
Muslim immigration levels remain high, and while retired Swedes who
spent their adult lives voting for this madness are, as I wrote
last year, “warehoused in old shipping containers” - which sounds like a
sick joke, but isn’t - new Muslim arrivals “get townhouses.”
Last March
some Ukrainian women and children were staying at a refugee hostel in
Örebro when, at about 3 A.M., a gang of male Somali immigrants broke in,
obviously up to no good. Thankfully, as I reported
at the time, the Ukrainians were able to save themselves by running to
their rooms and locking the doors, but some were so shaken that they
wished they’d never left home.
Why trade one war zone for another? And
in May I wrote
about the “Koran riots” - mass outbreaks of Muslim violence in several
Swedish cities (car burnings, Molotov cocktails, etc.), all of it in
furious response to thoroughly peacefully protests against, well, Muslim
violence.
Now comes the latest chapter in this bleakly comic tale. On September
11, Sweden will hold parliamentary elections. This will represent the
first national test for the Nuance Party (Partiet Nyans), which
a fellow named Mikail Yüksel founded three years ago after being
expelled from the Center Party for belonging to the Gray Wolves, a gang
of Turkish neo-fascist jihadist types.
Targeting Muslim voters, the
Nuance Party has grown quickly - and why not? Where else will you find
candidates who want to introduce harsh measures to fight Islamophobia,
to anonymize housing applicants (so you can end up renting the spare
room next to your daughter’s bedroom to one of those would-be Somali
rapists mentioned above), to make the European Union less of a
“Christian club” by admitting Turkey and Bosnia.
To increase pressure on
EU countries (such as Hungary) to take Muslim refugees, to compel
proportional representation of ethnic groups in the police departments
and counterterrorism services, to introduce blasphemy laws and limit
free speech, to forbid the removal of Muslim children from their homes
by child-protective services (which often remove them, mind you, because
they’re being raped by members of their extended families), to build
more mosques, to permit Muslim apparel absolutely everywhere, and to ban
Koran burning and offensive commentary about Islam?
