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."
OSU Student Says Black People Are Superior, and It’s No Wonder
Wednesday, April 27, 2022
Robert Spencer : According to The Lantern, the
student newspaper at OSU, Fuller, a junior who is studying “human
development and family science” (yes, really), made his statement “while
presenting a resolution to condemn all anti-critical race theory
legislation.” Fuller said:
Yes, um, I just wanted to say
that, um, and make this very clear, the only people who are taught that
they are superior to another race are white people. And I would
absolutely love to live in a world where black people were taught that
they are superior. I would love it because I full-heartedly believe
that. Um, but that’s not the case, um, at all, and so I just wanted to
make that very clear. By saying that, um, by taking away the teaching of
one race as superior to another, that is inherently white supremacy.
Because white people learn from birth that they are superior, there is
no thing that they need to be taught in school that tells them that.
They learn that from their lived experiences. And so, by teaching, you
know, and when – white supremacy is not something that you learn about,
um, by any means, and it’s a relatively new term, and it’s a term that
is heavily debated, um, because a lot of people don’t like calling white
people superior. Um, and I completely understand with that. But there
is no such thing as white inferiority. There would be a protest if
somebody said that on this campus, like, literally, “white people are
inferior.” And I’m gonna say that right now because this is my place to
say that, but, like, I do believe that black people are superior.
Undergraduate Student Government President Jacob Chang hastened to go
on record disavowing what Fuller said: “The comments made during the
General Assembly session is fundamentally, like, diverging from our
values as the student government of Ohio State.” That’s like,
fundamentally good to hear, but where did Fuller learn this hateful
nonsense? He probably picked up a lot of it right there at OSU.
American colleges and universities are awash in racism today. In February 2022, video surfaced of
Professor Zeus Leonardo, an associate dean at Berkeley’s Graduate
School of Education, saying, “To abolish whiteness is to abolish white
people.” In March 2022, Carlow University in Pittsburgh held an event called “Rejecting White Christianity.” Catholic University of America last November put up an icon depicting George Floyd as Jesus.
