Want to go fight in Ukraine? Here’s how to apply
New York Post ^ | March 5, 2022 | Dana Kennedy

Posted on 03/05/2022 10:15:04 AM PST by GonzoII

Ukraine launched a website Saturday where foreigners can apply directly if they want to go to Ukraine and fight against Russian invaders.

President Volodymyr Zelensky says the country received thousands of applications since he put out the call for a new self-styled International Legion on Feb. 27 — and he’s expecting more than 16,000 foreign volunteers to join the cause.

In many ways, Ukraine’s International Legion harkens back to the International Brigades, the storied volunteer formations fighting for the Republican Government during the Spanish Civil War in 1936-1938, the Kyiv Independent reported Saturday.

I figure it will be here soon enough, and then I won’t have to commute.

They should advertise over at Daily Kos and Democratic Underground, those two places are recruiting gold mines.

The Crusader Zealot mentality and religious fervor is quite amazing from our left-wing buddies. I’ve never read anything like it.

Not only are they organizing Abraham Lincoln Brigades for democracy. They have a bunch of people willing to empty their wallets/purses on Ukrainian fund raising.

So a good recruiter should make great money off commissions, while a good fundraiser will make his off donations.

Anybody combining both roles will retire early, with a mansion, because the soil for money making is that fertile. The environment is perfect for a high yield monetary harvest.

Irony would be lost on them. George Orwell wrote Animal Farm about the commies from his experience with the International Brigade in Spain. The warmonger party on FR would be advised to read it before buying their ticket to help Ukrainians. They might find their version of an international brigade ends up a nazi version of the Animal Farm lampoonery

thanks... but I won’t be fighting for the New World Order or to support the freak show

As for Russia invading... how many countries did the US invade under 0bama?

that’s not motivating me.

Russia blowing up US bioweapons labs... i can get behind that (nothing good comes out of those ‘labs’)

Umm, if these brigades are in any way related to or derived from the Azov Battalion — be prepared to march behind a swastika. The AB is a pack of neo-Nazis.

If you are OK with that, go for it. Hope you have fun and get a shallow grave.

Or you can just send money to fund weapons. Live Updates: Ukraine Government Turns to Crypto to Crowdfund Millions of Dollars

But I've also seen a bunch of crowdfunding sites out of Chechnya. And since it's Russian controlled, I'm thinking they're scam sites to steal from Ukraine. So be careful.

I wouldnt be surprised if the real war is about to erupt on our soil, while the powers that be are drawing our attention towards Ukraine.
