No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" ā€œWhen 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

" ā€œWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā€

ā€œIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā€
ā€œOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
ā€œThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā€
ā€œMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā€
ā€œThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

ā€œNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
ā€œIt 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."

Tall tales that were told to cover up 1MDB scandal By R Nadeswaran

Malaysiakini : Arab donor

On Aug 22, 2015 when Ahmad Zahid Hamidi was Umno deputy president, he told the audience - members of the Sri Gading Umno division - he had met the wealthy Arab family who had donated the US$700 million that was channelled into party president Najib Abdul Razakā€™s personal account.

"When I asked them why they donated US$700 million to Malaysia, they said, 'Malaysia is not the only country we are channelling our money to. There are many more friendly Muslim countries we are donating to.'

"They want Umno and BN to continue ruling the country,"

Former deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi

The family, he also reportedly said, was impressed by how Malaysia, with its plural society, still managed to remain moderate without side-lining any other religions.

Zahid said he had also met with the investment officer of the wealthy Arab family, who explained how the first US$100 million was given via a cheque under Najibā€™s name and the rest through other channels.

ā€œI saw the documents myselfā€¦ the original documents, not photostated ones, and I also saw the money trail,ā€ he added.

Later, opening the Sekijang Umno division meeting in Segamat, Zahid said as deputy prime minister and home minister, he was privy to all information around the country verified by not one but several intelligence agencies.

ā€œI obtained the information accurately and did not add or minus the facts. The conspiracy to topple the government would take place if not stopped. This is the truth. Not an attempt,ā€ he had said.

The naĆÆve and gullible were mesmerised and swallowed his words him ā€“ hook line and sinker.

After all, he was No 2 to the highest seat in the land and why should he tell them a fib?

But when the chips were down when his boss was indicted on a slew of charges, there was no one to support his claim of the Arab donation.

Najib was alone and the chest-thumping Zahid who had earlier ā€œmet the donorā€ was not there when he was needed most.

Instead, he was fighting his own battles in yet another court before another judge.

If indeed he ā€œsaw the original documentsā€, Zahid would have been the principal defence witness in Najibā€™s court case where the donation theory was blown to smithereens.

It is not intended to say that Zahid and others had the propensity not to tell the truth but to show how the tall tales were spun to make support that incredulous theory of an Arab donation.

Apandiā€™s defamation suit

Even the former attorney-general and the former head of the MACC had used the same script ā€“ the money came from an Arab donor. 

In the defamation case of Mohamed Apandi Ali v Lim Kit Siang, the donation theory was again demolished and the former endeared admonishment from the court.

Former attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali

Justice Azimah Omar said Apandiā€™s ā€œactions and inactions (during his tenure as AG) indubitably give rise to ā€œa plethora of harrowing suspicions and questionsā€ which did not ā€œappear out of thin airā€ but arose from Apandiā€™s ā€œactions and inactions, directly or indirectlyā€ which ā€œmay be seen to have assisted in the cover-up of the 1MDB scandalā€ and ā€œthe personalities involvedā€. 

Even after Najib went to jail, his lawyer Muhammad Shafee Abdullah continued to sing the same song - the source of RM42 million that entered into his client's bank account was actually a donation from Saudi royals.

Speaking during Umnoā€™s special briefing in Kuala Lumpur on Aug 27, he said: ā€œIt is not because he loves Najib, but he really liked how Najib had taken care (sic) of Malaysia.

ā€œMalaysia is seen as one of the countries that do not enforce extreme Islamic values so they (Saudi) wanted to give assistance personally so that Najib could return as the prime minister again during the next elections.ā€

Why yet another walk in the past? Let me declare, that this issue has to be in the public domain to understand the massive disinformation campaign which began to roll after the 1MDB scandal made the headlines.

When one is already in the slammer and while others wait for their turn, disinformation campaigns will continue with familiar catchphrases like ā€œselective persecutionā€ and ā€œfair trialā€.

The lies and half-truths will be conveniently omitted for political expediency and to create a new sloganeering.

These lines will continue to be heard as we approach the general election and discerning Malaysians will definitely know how to separate the wheat from the chaff.
