This isn't even the worst of it. They have soldiers with down syndrome and disabilities on the front lines.

Don't worry though, people will be here shortly defending this disgusting shit while half the military aged male population has left the country. The Ghost of Kiev is almost done.

It’s total war.

If Ukraine loses they go back to Russian enslavement. All power flows through Putin the dictator. A foreigner, Russia is not Ukraine. The same people who purposely starved millions of Ukrainians in the 30’s.

Would we fight any less? Give up any easier?

Russia apparently doesn’t have it much better. They aren’t emptying prisons, using Chechens, and now press ganging foreigners off Moscow streets for service if they didn’t need to.

Sadly, this would be typical with pretty much any developed country these days. Were we to face an existential threat here on our shores, you could bet the same thing would happen.

Probably end up with middle-aged housewives fighting alongside their husbands on the lines, while soy-boy sons wave the enemy's flag in protest, or flee to Mexico so they can still play XBox somewhere with wifi.

Clearly this is being done for public relations purposes to bolster support in Europe and to a lesser degree from the USA.

Western politicians love this stuff, they eat it up.  I'm fairly certain that most of the women will be in territorial defense rear echelon or supporting roles. That said, there have been women since the start of this conflict acting as medics and ambulance drivers who have been regularly at the front.  

In terms of poor recruits, that's true on both side of this conflict.  The Russians have been using convicts and let's just say not exactly the cream of the crop for some time now.  Both Ukraine and Russia have serious corruption issues when it comes to recruitment.  

I'll say though, that Ukraine does have some top notch infantry.  Say what you want, but Azov have been consistently well motivated and done some hard fighting throughout this conflict.  The 47th Mechanized Brigade, which was trained by NATO is also filled with some great infantrymen.  The problem for Ukraine is really with their upper ranks, because colonels and generals takes decades to develop under ideal conditions.   Make no mistake though, Ukraine does have some hard motivated fighters.

Ukraine does need to be very careful with the lives of its young women though. Ukraine before this war was already in demographic decline like most of the western world (Russia was and is too).  They really can't afford to lose young women when they need those women to have babies to add to their population.   After this conflict is over there is going to be a real need to replace their population loses, losing a young man is in that regards not good, but losing a young woman is far worse.

This is what you see when you look out the window of your apartment in Ukraine.



Seeing that blue and yellow flying above your crumbling shithole of a home instead of the Russian flag makes all the difference and is worth dying for! And depending on how much longer the war drags on, a victory means you'll also get to see lots of new friends from the Middle East and Africa repopulating where all the dead Ukrainians used to live.  Definitely worth risking it all to recapture some mined to shit, bombed out random towns east of the Dniper river and so some hellbound defense industry lobbyists can put in a new pool with those fat aid contracts. Glory to Slava

If I were to kidnap and blindfold the average American and drop them off in a random Ukrainian or Russian town, assuming there are no flags present, 99.99% would not be able to tell which country they were in. 95% probably wouldn't even be able to determine where they were if flags were present before the war turned the Ukrainian flag into a democrat resistance bumper sticker

Since some folks suffer from tone deafness; I don't think anyone was anti-UA in the beginning. I think people became anti-UA when democrats decided to defend another country over ours while simultaneously raping our coffers.

Not everything anti-UA is Russian propaganda. Not everyone who speaks out against the grift and corruption is pro-RU.

It is almost like over 20 years of Americans going into war have changed their minds about getting involved in wars. Seems predictable to me.

It is only a small sect of people who equate not wanting to be involved, as not "supporting" something.

You posting on the internet is providing zero support to anyone. Others posting on the internet are not hindering anything. It matters not.

Russia only “Controls” the war because they can end it anytime they want. Pull back to the 2014 International Border and stop purposefully targets civilians with missiles & drones….boom peace.

Military they cannot. They can’t simply draft enough men, they can’t equip enough men, they can’t train enough men. The war is so unpopular at home. Hence it’s called a “Special Military Operation. They haven’t made any meaningful ground offensives in well over a year. Ukraine successfully keeps the Russian Air Force out of its airspace. Driven the Russian Navy essentially out of the Black Sea and now back to Russia ports. Their blockade is over. I am sure they are trying to increase production but obviously it’s not enough, they aren’t buying weapons from North Korea and Iran because they want to..militarily Russia is in a bad spot as well.

It depends. Will this war be fought indoors with air conditioning? Will there be an HR department? Will the women be telling the men what to do? Will the women have combat positions that allow them to fight using Zoom, and will there be only about fifteen minutes a day of low stress combat per day? Can they get an instant DD-214 if they find a boyfriend or husband willing to support them?  

I am pretty sure the chicks will be all over that war, of those conditions are met.
