World War III 第三届世界大战
I know not where the following quotation comes from.
All I know is the fact that it is posted to me by a friend from Singapore. Thank You, Lim, and God Bless You.
I have made some amendments to the message I received just to make the contents clearer.
Here comes the message and I appreciate it if you can read SLOWLY and let the meaning sink into the deeper section of the brain.
“We are in World War III now. We have not asked you to stay indoors but I know that your own inner voices ask you to - to stay indoors to be safe.
“In fact, we know that, if you do have a basement at your home, you will be staying there as long as you know that the invisible enemy still exists.
“In war, you do not insist on having freedom. You will willingly give freedom up in exchange for survival. During a war, you do not complain of hunger. You bear hunger and you pray that you can live long enough to eat again.
“In wartime, you do not argue about opening your business. You close your shops and run for your lives.
“You pray to outlive the war so that you can return to your businesses (that is if the business premises have not been destroyed by spiders or rats or looters).
“In a war, you are thankful to God for seeing another day in the land of the living.
“In a war, you do not worry about your children not going to school. You teach them the knowledge of true survival.
“The world is currently in a state of war. This is a war without guns, without bullets - a war without human soldiers, a war without borders, a war without cease-fire agreements, a war without sacred zones.
“The enemy in this world is without mercy. It has no milk, no honey, and no sympathy. It has no human kindness, no dis discrimination, no respect for children, or for women, or for seniors, or for politicians, or for places of worship.
“This is an enemy with no interest in the spoils of the war. This is an enemy with no intention of regime change. This is an enemy who is not concerned about the rich mineral resources underneath the earth. This enemy is not even interested in religion, ethics, or in ideological hegemony.
“Its ambition has nothing to do with racial superiority. Our enemy is invisible, is flatfooted, and is ruthlessly effective.
“The enemy has just one agenda - the harvest of death.
“The enemy is only satiated after turning the world into one big death field.
“The enemy has no physical grounds, no amphibious or aerial machines.
“The enemy has bases in every country on this earth.
“The enemy’s movements are not governed by any war convention, nor any protocol.
“In short, this enemy has a law unto itself.
“Thankfully, at last, this enemy has a weakness and it can be defeated. To defeat this enemy, we require our collective action and discipline.
“The enemy cannot survive if we have our social and physical distancing. The enemy bows before our good personal hygiene like a simple act of handwashing and sanitizing as often as possible.
“This is not a time to cry about bread and butter like spoilt children. After all the Bible has told us that man cannot live by bread alone.
“Let us obey and follow the instructions of the authorities. Let us flatten the COVID-19 curve. Let us exercise our patience. Let us be our brothers’ keepers.
“In no time, we shall regain our freedom, our enterprise, and socializing again - for another hundred and two years.”
At this point, let us remember the poem “Charge of the Light Brigade” by Lord Alfred Tennyson, modified to suit, as follows:
Virus to the right of us, Virus to the left of us,
Virus in front of us, Virus behind us,
No volley, no thunder; No shot, no shell;
Boldly we rode and well,
Not into the jaws of Death,
Not into the mouth of hell
Rode NZ’s five million.
The enemy doesn’t need to have its saber bare,
Doesn’t need to be flash in the air
Doesn’t need to be Sabring there,
The enemy charged, while
All the world wondered.
Plunged not in the battery-smoke
But right through our lifelines it broke;
Pakehas, Maoris and Asians
Reel from the saber stroke
Shattered and sundered.
Then we rode back, but not
Not the full NZ’s five million.
Thanks to Lord Alfred Tennyson.
我不知道以下明智话的来历。 我所知道的是,它是由新加坡一位朋友发给我的。谢谢你,林,让上帝继续保佑你。 我对收到的消息进行了一些修改,只是为了使内容更清楚。 消息来了,如果您能慢慢阅读并使含义沉入大脑的更深部分. "我们现在正处于第三次世界大战中。我们没有要求您呆在室内,但我知道您内心的声音会要求您-呆在室内以确保安全。 "实际上,我们知道,如果您的家中确实有地下室,只要您知道隐形敌人仍然存在,就将一直呆在那里。 "在战争中,您不必坚持拥有自由。您愿意放弃自由以换取生存。在战争中,您不会抱怨饥饿。你忍受饥饿,祈祷你能活到足够长的时间再吃。 "在战时,您不必争论开门营业。您关闭商店并为自己的生活而奔波。 "您祈祷战胜这场战争,以便您可以重返自己的生意(也就是说,如果营业场所未被蜘蛛,老鼠或掠夺者摧毁)。 "在战争中,您感谢上帝在活人之地看到另一天。 "在战争中,您不必担心孩子不上学。您教他们真正的生存知识。 "世界目前处于战争状态。这是一场没有枪支,没有子弹的战争-没有人类士兵的战争,没有边界的战争,没有停火协议的战争,没有神圣地区的战争。
"这个世界上的敌人毫不留情。它没有牛奶,没有蜂蜜,也没有同情心。它没有人类的仁慈,没有歧视,不尊重儿童,妇女,老年人,政客,或礼拜场所。 "这是一个对战利品毫无兴趣的敌人。这是一个无意改变政权的敌人。这是一个敌人,不关心地下的丰富矿产资源。这个敌人甚至对宗教,道德或意识形态霸权都不感兴趣。 "它的野心与种族优势无关。我们的敌人是看不见的,措手不及,并且无情地有效。 "敌人只有一个议程 - 死亡的收获。 "只有在将世界变成一个大死亡场之后,敌人才会满足。
"敌人没有实际地面,没有两栖或空中机器。 "敌人在地球上的每个国家都有据点。 "敌人的行动不受任何战争惯例或协议的约束。
"简而言之,这个敌人有自己的法律。
"幸运的是,这个敌人终于有了弱点,可以被击败。为了击败这个敌人,我们需要我们的集体行动和纪律。
"如果我们在社会和身体上相距遥远,敌人将无法生存。敌人在我们良好的个人卫生之前低头,尽可能简单地洗手和消毒"现在不是哭泣像被宠坏的孩子那样吃面包和黄油的时候。毕竟圣经告诉我们,人不能仅靠面包生活。
"让我们服从并遵循当局的指示。让我们展平COVID-19曲线。让我们保持耐心。让我们成为我们兄弟的守护者。
" 我们将很快再恢复自由,我们的事业并再次交往-再过一百二十年。”
