Kiev Cracks Down on Gangs Helping Ukrainian Men to Dodge Military Draft – Move Comes as Conscription Goes Into Overdrive, Mobilizing the Old, the Infirm and even Women
Gateway Pundit ^

Posted on 09/18/2023 1:33:42 PM PDT by Tench_Coxe

After the failure of the much-hyped Summer offensive of the Ukrainian forces, with as much as 70k human losses in a little over 3 months, Kiev has ramped up dramatically the efforts to forcibly conscript every able-bodied male – and some not so able – and are starting with Medical Women, too.

At the same time, Kiev tries to cripple the many gangs that are selling a most valuable service, righht now: help to evade mobilization.

“The people’s forces where you bring in children 15, 16 years old, you’re bringing in old people in their sixties, you’re bringing in the infirm people who otherwise would have received a military deferment."

The positive note is that the money we send for humanitarian purposes can now be spent on bribes and kickbacks. Most of it already has been. But now an even larger proportion.

“WINNING”
______________________________________________________

Indeed. LOL! Nothing says “winning” louder and more confidently than conscripting 15 year-olds and retirees over 65, begging neighboring countries to arrest & return your citizens, and then demanding the USA send you another $25 billion.

It's sickening that we have delusional neocon numbskulls denying that horror of what the Ukrainian government is doing to its citizens. Or that NATO and the Biden regime are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians because they refuse to abandon a proxy war that was always doomed to fail.

Scott Ritter:

“The people’s forces where you bring in children 15, 16 years old, you’re bringing in old people in their sixties, you’re bringing in the infirm people who otherwise would have received a military deferment.

And you’re bringing them together to form these units…If this is the stage that Ukraine is at, then this does not bode well for Ukraine because those forces are incapable, incapable of carrying out the kind of offensive operations that the Ukrainian army wants to do…

And if they ever put these forces into combat, they will be slaughtered. And that would be, in a long list of tragic events, that would be among the most tragic.”

Now that Zelensky has all but promised to activate his 5th Column in the rest of Europe, if the Europeans stop the Gravy Train, it would be VERY WISE of the European governments to start sending back their so-called “Ukrainian Refugees”, at least the ones able to walk.

Not everyone was an America-hating hard lefty, so it was always the draft dodger that lost.

When absolute scum is in the room and a war is raging, you have to, these were guys who fled but would sneak back into America for clandestine visits.

I would leave if it meant that much to me.

Luckily I have never been in your position.

I get the impression you don’t have a feel for the situation and the times.

Your impression is correct, which is why I stated that I’ve never been in your position.

It was intense and I was a very conservative and patriotic Texan, also I was trying for a permanent draft deferment at the time, and beating the draft was delaying my enlisting in the Army.

"Too bad they can't go to the US or Britain and draft all the bloodthirsty war cheerleaders too."

Who says they can't? Wasn't it Lindsey Graham who recently said "American may soon need to provide men for the war effort in Ukraine"..??

Understood.

Many of my friends enlisted and all were conservative/libertarian politically.

I went in 5 months before 9/11 so my public treatment was 180 to yours.

“5 months before 9/11”

Intense, I bet there were a lot of feelings raging around you guys when that happened.
