Theists: How can predetermined fate and free will coexist?

Some things are destined and somethings are not.

God can write as fate what he wants in his book as well erase from what he writes as fate of what he wishes.

Oh, is that what semi-free-will and semi- fate is?  Sounds an awful lot like not free will and complete and absolute fate. Allah gets his jollies by punishing the toys for the things he makes them do, does he? Kinky.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
