W Quotes (12)

THE LEADER

P atient and steady with all he must bear,
R eady to meet every challenge with care,
E asy in manner, yet solid as still,
S trong in his faith, refreshingly real,
I sn't afraid to propose what is bold,
D oesn't conform to the usual mold,
E yes that have foresight, for hindsight won't do,
N ever backs down when he sees what is true,
T ells it all straight and means it all too.
G oing Forward and knowing he's right,
E ven when doubted for why he could fight,
O ver and over he makes his case clear
R eaching to touch the ones who won't hear.
G rowing in strengh, he won't be unnerved,
E ver assuring he'll stand by his word.
W anting the world to join his firm stand,
B racing for war, but prayong for peace,
U sing his power so evil will ceased:
S o much a leader and worthy of trust,
H ere stands a man who will do what he must.


Dit gedicht ter ere van W stond in een schoolboek van 16-jarige Pakistaanse jongeren. Zeer bizar. Hoe dat gedicht daar in de naam van Allah ingeraakt is, is een raadsel. Mocht Alex Brulov het momenteel niet zo druk hebben met de "Muito Bom"-affaire, zou hij de zaak zeker onderzoeken, maar u begrijpt dat hij zich nu op de "Muito Bom"-zaak concentreert.
