Where are the young people and why won’t they fight?

Depleting the population of military-aged males who might back a coup, if it got to that stage. Younger males who haven’t seen battle tend to be more passive.

This saves Ukraine in the long run by not having to spend as much on senior benefits. It also means less of their baby-making population is dying in the war.

but it's still a losing war for Ukraine.

So opposite to the claims that Ukraine is emptying orphanages for soldiers, the truth is they have been too lenient with their draft.

“...to avenge her son who’d been killed fighting the Russians almost a decade before”

I’m reliably told hostilities started with an unprovoked invasion in February, 2022.

Unless she means her son was a nazi killing russkie civilians in the recently ‘conquered territory’ following the 2014 coup, that is.

Zelensky’s last set of laws is to conscripte 18 year olds. Not to worry, adding a seven year group to the military, and shortening AFU training from two months to less than six weeks will ensure they are killed lacking proper training.

Ukraine doesn’t have time now to conscripted and round up enough men. They lost 51,000 KIA in May 2024.

Russia is preparing 300k men north of Kiev for yet another front.

Today, Russia killed over 300 NATO (Ukrainian) personnel at a F16 airbase via missile strike.

This war is closing in on Ukraine from all sides. Russia has yet to begin the Summer Offensive to end the war in 2024.

Biden’s reelection is toast. So says the Kiev ghost.

50 year old guys mostly just aren’t in shape when compared with the 20 year olds

Many young Ukrainians working remotely for foreign tech companies were moved over the border into Poland so they could continue working for them. This has resulted in older Ukrainian farmers and rural workers to be slaughtered in their stead.

Zelensky sure likes sending white Christian men to their deaths.

As thousands fled Kyiv in the first days of Russia’s 2022 invasion, one 57-year-old grandmother hurried in the opposite direction. Liudmyla Menyuk was going to sign up for the army to avenge her son who’d been killed fighting the Russians almost a decade before.

Ooops! How did that slip through the truth-speak checkers!
(one decade prior Feb 2022 = ?)
