There is a Forum in Russia at the moment. These happen often and this one is centred around the SMO.
'The boys will be driven to the slaughter' - Putin said what will happen if Ukraine starts mobilizing 18-year-olds.
'I think that the next crime of the Kyiv regime will be lowering the mobilization age to 18. This is a crime. Even if they lower it to 14, like in Hitler's Germany, it will not change the situation on the battlefield. At the behest of the US, they will also lower the mobilization. And the boys will be driven to the slaughter. Just as today they catch people on the street, like stray dogs, and drive them under the bullets. The boys will be driven in the same way. And then, the regime leaders will flee.'

That was the draft age in the US, IM just surprised it's so high right now.
The average ages of men at the front in Vietnam was 19
One of my relatives was just sixteen.

However, it is a barbaric practice.
Have you seen the fatigues being made for pregnant women? I felt sick when I saw it. Lindsey Graham, Blinken and Sullivan should get a taste of the front line or their children if they are of fighting age.
yes.
Pregnant women are slow-witted soldiers, just because their bodies are busy creating life. They get sleepy at odd times, and need to pee every five minutes. Plus, when they pee they have to squat, unless there is a proper seated toilet. Men can just open a fly, women have to peel it all off, and can't do it standing without getting everything wet.
NVM the fetus.
Forum on at the moment in Moscow. Mainly military. On the MOD Telegram board, Russia has just released these statistics.
In the year 2022 (beginning of SMO) 118,500 Ukrainians killed
In the year 2023 - 405.400 Ukrainians killed.
To date in 2024 - 975,100 Ukrainians killed.
The way I read this is around 1.5 million Ukrainians killed.
Is it cumulative though?
Martyanov reckons that we are nearing the million mark.
The way I read it is per year. Colonel Doug MacGregor said months ago it’s was around 800,000. While I’m typing this, I’m listening to Larry Johnson. They talked about this and now talking about Larry thinks President Trump is STILL being fooled on Ukraine.

That doesn’t stop the Zelensky thugs dragging men off the streets or other places. There are 60 yos, and young teens. I’ve seen videos of a young man with Down Syndrome where the leader mercilessly mocks him, kicks him, making him do dangerous things all while being a target of their mocking. I often think of him. The average age timeframe of living for those dragged off the streets, given 1 weeks training and sent to the frontline Is 4 hours. The regime hide their deaths and are left to rot on the ground where they fell because it denies the families compensation. To the last Ukrainian as Lindsey Graham mocked.
90% of Americans think Biden won the 2020 Election, Oswald was a lone shooter and Michelle Obama is a womyn.
Sauce on womyn:

Are Americans aware? The informed, yes. The normies, highly doubtful. Western cosmo elite have been asking Z to lower the age throughout the SMO, and he has lowered it twice. He can't/won't lower it to 18 because he faces too much backlash from the public and his own cabinet.

It’s not up to Zelensky; he does what Blinken et al tell him.
Well they've been very public about pressuring him to lower it again and he has repeatedly said no. IMO it would be the end of Z. Opportunists would usurp his green shirt if he lowered it again.
It's been genocide since the beginning. Khazars vs Ukrainians.
Yeah, why are they so determined to send kids to the front line.
One has to wonder.
There are no men left. They have either fled into Russia or to Europe. Men with missing limbs with prosthetics are often shown dead on the frontline. I saw a video around a week ago that women will be next. This person supplied fatigues to the military. She was proudly showing the camera, pants and it had a stretchy maternity panel which she proudly stretched out showing it could support of very pregnant women. While many women have joined, they originally called up women nurses, doctors to serve with the fighters on the frontline with the different battalions. When a group of Russian fighters clear out an area, they remove any identifiable paperwork, like passports and dog tags. The amount of foreign fighters (NATO) is kept a guarded secret by the US/UK/EU. But thousands have died, possibly the Poles with the greatest loss. Another reason the regime keep the deaths quiet is so they don’t have to pay compensation. Like a prisoner swap, they have cadaver swaps where the dead on both sides are exchanged. It’s at this time that the identifiable info taken from the decomposing bodies is handed to the Ukrainians. Whether these deaths are made available to the families is unknown.
I have seen some articles about desertion, and even defection. There is a even (a?) Ukrainian batallion(s?) fighting FOR the Russians.
That would be my instinct if I was a person in that situation.
The Russians were dropping leaflets with a call sign to contact them and what to do when approaching Russian military. Those were the lucky ones - they get to see their families again after the SMO. Many Ukrainians that attempted to desert were shot. Those captured by Russians tell of horrific conditions and what the so called ‘leaders’ did to civilians, not to mention their own.
