Rudyard Kipling"
āWhen 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 soldierā
General Douglas MacArthur"
āWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā
āIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā āOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
āThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā
āMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā āThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
āNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
āIt 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."
Massachusetts: Muslim migrant claims he accidentally bought 800 castor beans, researched poisons
Friday, April 08, 2022
Dr. Ishtiaq Ali Saaem, 37, a Bangladeshi National
Robert Spencer : Jihad poisoning plots are not new. Zee News reported
in July 2019 that āthe Maharashtra anti-terror squad has foiled a plot
by terrorists to poison the āmahaprasadā of the famous Mumbreshwar
Mahadev temple in Thane district.ā
āMahaprasadā or āprasadā consists of a large number of food items
that are offered to the gods in Hindu temples and then consumed by
worshippers. This particular poisoning plot was the work of the Islamic
State, which, although largely driven out of its former caliphate in
Iraq and Syria, is busy trying to murder large numbers of infidels
elsewhere. Zee News continued: āThe day when the suspects planned to
poison the prasad, it was consumed by at least 40,000 devotees.ā
Al-Qaeda has long considered the contamination of food as a jihad mass murder tactic. And in 2017, the Islamic State called on Muslims to
poison food in Western supermarkets. This kind of poisoning has
actually happened at least twice in Britain: in February 2008, according
to the Evening Standard,
ātwo shop-owners were today fined for selling chocolate cake ā which
had been sprinkled with human faeces. A horrified customer ate the
foul-smelling gateaux but noticed that it didnāt taste or smell āquite
rightā and handed the cake to public health scientists. The analysts
soon established that the sweet treat was covered in faeces and legal
proceedings against the shop owners were started.ā
One of the shop owners Saeed Hasmi, pleaded guilty, but insisted: āIt
was not our fault but I donāt want to talk about it.ā He didnāt explain
whose fault it was, or why it was done. And in March 2009, the Hamilton Spectator reported
that a Muslim woman named Mastoora Qezil āhas been charged with
allegedly inserting 13 sewing needles into packages of meat products
found in a grocery storeā¦. Thirteen needles of various lengths were
found inserted in 12 packaged products.ā
The following month, the BBC reported
that āa chemist who contaminated food and wine in Gloucestershire
supermarkets with his own urine and faeces has been sent to prison for
nine years.ā A āright-wing extremistā? No: āSahnoun Daifallah, 42, of
Bibury Road, Gloucester, was found guilty of four counts of
contaminating goods at four businesses in May 2008.ā At Daifallahās
hearing, Judge Carol Hagen said that he was āa potentially very
dangerous man.ā
These media reports didnāt connect Hasmi, Qezil, or Daifallah with
the global jihad, but it couldnāt be denied that they were furthering
jihadist goals: al-Qaeda has long considered the contamination of food as a jihad mass murder tactic.
We also know that jihadis have long wanted to poison the water
supply, as they also did in this case. As far back as 2002, the feds
arrested two jihadis who were carrying plans about how to poison water
supplies. In 2003, al-Qaeda threatened to poison water supplies in
Western countries. In 2011, a jihadi in Spain likewise planned to poison
water supplies.
And in May 2013, seven Muslim āchemical engineersā were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir, a key supply of water for Boston, after midnight. Only months later and indirectly did we hear that it was a ācriminal matter.ā A month later, locks were cut at the aqueduct that supplies water to Greater Boston.
