Top UK General Says Civilians Will Have To Be Conscripted Into a ‘Citizen’s Army’ To Fight Major War Against Russia
Gateway Pundit ^ | 01/24/2024 | Paul Serran

The war-mongering in Europe has gone into overdrive, with military chiefs sounding the alarm to ‘imaginary wars’, trying to drum up support for Ukraine and to hypercharge Russophobia as the patience of the citizens in general with this conflict narrative has greatly diminished.

Now, the top UK general says they live in a ‘pre-war’ scenario, and insists that only ‘citizen armies’ will be able to defeat the coming Russian avalanche to disrupt the Western societies.

The head of the British army alerted UK citizens to be prepared for a war fought on the scale of the great conflicts of the 20th Century – and that they may need to be mobilized.

“Speaking at the International Armored Vehicles exhibition in London, General Sir Patrick Sanders said the Russian invasion of Ukraine is a sign of things to come, warning that the lessons of previous wars must be remembered before it is too late…

Sunak, Johnson and Blair’s kids go first. Use the corpses of the elite’s kids as sandbags.

That’s probably why he made the comment.

Strong national defense is always a good idea, especially for countries friendly and allied with us.

The stupid Brits will draft the Tommys only and the muzzles will take their women for dlsves while they’re away. This time they’ll be pushing up sunflowers instead of poppies.

Why would white men sign up to fight and die for a country that despises them?

If he really believes this, his mind is still in the early 1940s. Why would Russia sit back and wait the 12 to 18 months or more it would take the Brits to draft and train raw recruits and draftees on that scale? Strategic parts of the UK would be glowing cinders before they could even open up training camps for that many.

They’ll be given oointy sticks. No guns because those guns might be turned on them.

So, conscript our citizens so illegals can take over what we leave behind.

I think that’s just a smashing idea! Start with the Muslims and illegal aliens who have flooded your country. And do it the Ukraine way. Grab them off the streets and send them into combat with little or no training! You go General! After the pool of Muslims and illegals is exhausted, try diplomacy.

Islam can only prevail in the World if the “Awakened Saxon” is killed killing Russian Christians.

You don’t seriously believe what you write there, do you? Is Russia 40 TRILLION in debt?

For the first time in the history of my HUGE family, nobody has served since the 1990’s. No join ups, no families of GI Joes have gone into a recruitment office and said, I volunteer. The military, from undersea, to the floaties, and the grunts is full of fags, females and flotsam. At the start of hostilities, the rate of AWOLs will not be a trickle, but a river.

I don't think that is forthcoming. Some Swedes are trying also to gin up more war hysteria involving having to draft citizens to "fight." But there are some simple things which never get discussed.

Russia is circa 145 million, while the EU is 450 million and all of Europe taken together is about 700 million. The "early 1940s" thinking that this would only be a land war, should it come, is laughable. More to the point, Russia could not "occupy" Europe, and probably wouldn't want the headaches of a European populace demanding its subsidies and welfare and all.

Given the internal headaches of Muslim migration into the UK, France especially, and poor little Sweden, it is assured that Europe has problems enough without the boogieman of Russia or even a real -- and impossible -- invasion from such a small population of 145 million.

Ukraine? A far smaller population, and currently a limited war. War in Europe? A limited land war? One has to laugh at the foolishness of those currently wiggling their little European fingers at -- not Russia, now -- but their own populaces that a European elite wants to conscript somehow into the military they haven't wanted to pay for all these past decades.

And then there's that pesky government debt courtesy of the EU and ECB, less critical in the moment that our massive debt, but still bloody stupid.

Best wishes.

I don’t think so either, but the EU will go to war against Russia. I hope they don’t leave Turkey at their backs.

Turkey will wait for a weakened Russia, to launch Ottoman Empire 2.0. They’ll get most of Europe without firing a shot, because the vast majority of Muslims living in Western Europe will support them.

What is the EU going to use? They have depleted most of their military hardware on The Ukraine. Russia has bled them dry.

Yes, the ComDems are insane.

But they have convinced themselves they are brilliant.
