Ukraine: Vom Knast an die Front - WELT
www.welt.de
Der Mangel an Soldaten ist für die Ukraine existenziell. Während die Mobilisierung den Bedarf nicht deckt, rekrutiert die Armee nun in Gefängnissen. Die Häftlinge dienen einem bestimmten Zweck. Viele fragen sich, was die Freiheit wert ist.

    We care so much about the Ukrainians that we are willing to sacrifice all of them just so the country they happen to live in can (in the fantasy universe in our mind) get back a peace of land they’ve been committing ethnic cleansing in.

      If you’re referring to the Donbass, that’s irrelevant, the West couldn’t care less about it. Crimea on the other hand they very much care about since if NATO gets its hands on it they can permanently lock Russia out of the Black Sea, which is why the Anglo empire started the first Crimean war back in the 19th century.

      The reality is that Ukrainians are being sacrificed so that NATO can swallow up yet another part of the former Soviet Union that can be used to “contain”, weaken and destabilize Russia, with the ultimate goal of either re-colonizing or finally balkanizing what’s left of it after the first dismemberment in 1991.

        I’m referring to the liberal’s bullshit justification/excuse for why we should send more weapons and continue the war.
