kraine's Air Force said it will now allow foreigners to serve as pilots and engineering specialists, with a spokesperson stressing the fact that Ukraine will likely need international recruits if and when it starts to receive Western combat aircraft.

Yurii Ihnat, a spokesperson for the commander of Ukraine's air force, said in a statement Thursday that foreign citizens will be able to join if they have suitable military training.

"If they have a military occupation such as a pilot or aviation engineer, then these people can legally become servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine," he said.

No, our civilian volunteers flew for the nation that would become our NATO ally, Britain, starting when Russia and the Third Reich were amigos.

No Delbert. Back then they were the communist USSR and were evil. Today they are closer to traditional American values than DC/WEF/EU by far.
They are building churches, protecting kids form homosexuality and trannies, they have a national 12% flat tax with no filing required, a national debt to DGP ratio of 20% compared to ours reaching 129% in 2022.

Yes.. joining in on Biden’s retarded war is unpatriotic... in many ways. Ideologically, financially, and morally.
Stew in the 1950s and 60s if you want, but this is 2023 and we have reversed roles with the old USSR.

Hell, Putin literally warned us like a friend, NOT to follow the path into madness that the USSR did back in the 1920s.

Doesn’t every peaceful country being invaded by an imperialist evil nation receive some material support?

I disagree with you on this issue. But at the moment, did you see Post 39?

Today they are closer to traditional American values

you mean "traditional American values" like putting anyone who criticizes the war in jail?

like poisoning political opponents with radioactive Polonium?

like bombing civilian apartment buildings with hypersonic missiles?

Unreal. And yessir, I’ll argue with you about Ukraine some other day. I saw your post 33 and agree. WTH is going on with these weirdos?
And sickening to see the Venom for Jim Rob. Just sickening.

Makes me feel like arguing with family and an outsider comes in. Sometimes the family has to deal with the crazed outsider first.

I wish I knew a mod.

Maybe after my next VA visit, when are you going to fight for every foreign policy of the United States that you support, or against every American foreign policy that you disagree with?

Isn’t that how you guys swing? You join every enemy army or every American army in every war on which you voice an opinion?

No. NATO is in control above troop level. This is NATO’s war fought on NATO’s terms.

JR is a grifting shithead that screwed this site from being a free speech forum, over his and John’s ego. When JR dies, this site will like go too cause John probably don’t care enough for the low pay this site generates.

We’ll see though, maybe Chris and John can keep you suckers giving for a text joke site.

Last I checked, Thomas Jefferson didn’t fight in any war. You don’t surrender your right to argue your mind and opinions because you support or oppose a war.

That retread has mental problems.

If you read our exchange on the other thread and then when he switched to this one, you will see that he is mental.

I think he had a different name a few months ago and I imagine the mods deal with him a lot as he probably pops up frequently.
