The German #left (not only the party) is against giving #Ukraine weapons.
Thus partially responsible for creating the security situation in which the need for #conscription arises.

"Turns out my wife is a man...."
What a crazy intro as a British man in Ukraine is approached by the military for possible busification.
Once they heard him speaking English, they walked back to the van empty handed. If he had been a Ukrainian citizen, would they have kidnapped him?

Friday September 25th blockade on a railway line near the port of #Hamburg halted the transport of military equipment and the logistics for a military exercise dubbed “Red Storm Charlie.” Organised by dozens of environmental activists, a banner placed across the tracks proclaimed: “There is no #climatejustice in a militarised world.”

@kurator88 I had a dream years ago that my young adult son was drafted into World War III. (I live in the USA.) Your post indicates that drafts (or #conscription) is a growing trend. I am sorry that the people of the world are marching toward so much bloodshed, and who even cares? Many will not sober up until it's their turn to feel the pain.

Stop de oorlogskoorts: Nationaal vredesprotest
De Dam, Amsterdam, zondag 27 september om 13:00 CEST
[Waarschuwing: tankies en COVID-ontkenners aanwezig / Warning: tankies and COVID deniers present]
De Nederlandse politiek is bevangen door een levensgevaarlijke oorlogskoorts. Onder het mom van veiligheid worden miljarden naar bewapening gestuurd, sociale zekerheid en democratische rechten onder druk gezet en wordt Nederland steeds verder meegesleept in internationale escalatie. Deze koers maakt ons niet veiliger, maar brengt oorlog en catastrofe juist dichterbij. Wij eisen een koerswijziging: weg van militarisering en escalatie, en richting vrede, diplomatie, sociale veiligheid en een onafhankelijke Nederlandse vredespolitiek.
. . . . .
Dutch politics is gripped by a dangerous war fever. Under the guise of security, billions are being poured into armaments while social security and democratic rights are being put under pressure, and the Netherlands is being dragged ever further into international escalation. This course does not make us safer; it brings war and catastrophe closer than ever. We demand a change of course: away from militarisation and escalation, and towards peace, diplomacy, social security, and an independent Dutch peace policy.

"You can't expect others to protect you, therefore,. you are forced to protect others"
Yeah, okay, but this also means, that you are forced to protect others that can't expect to be protected by you.

‘Ordinary citizens do not want to be sent to a war with no end in sight’: Russian men consider exile.
Amid the threat of renewed conscription, some Russian men of fighting age have purchased plane tickets and are ready to leave if a general mobilisation is declared after the elections scheduled for 18 to 20 September.
Georgia, Armenia and Serbia are the most popular destinations.

Reading the end of Bad Moon Rising (about the Weather Underground) the author claimed they broke decades old promises to never live peacefully under the US system.
I however would argue that they "served their tours" more than almost anyone else in that era. While other talked, Weather DID.
They brought the war home, and played a role in the defeat of US imperialism in Vietnam.Also remember that both Richard Nixon and the US attack on Vietnam were defeated prior to any Weatherpeople surfacing. They had not only served their tours but played a role in defeating two immediate enemies.
Their role was shared with Jane Alpert's guerillas, famous for blowing up Selective Service's Whitehall Induction Center during Woodstock. Two million draft files were shredded and burned, disabling legal enforcabilty of induction orders for much of the Northeast.
Also important were the fighters who burned, bombed, or raided draft boards by the hundreds, again destroying files. Most famous of these were the Catonsville 9, who raided one draft board and burned the files outside in a metal trashcan. Their fuel was napalm made from gasoline-and their own blood. The press coverage was fucking huge and it was an international sensation. The use of napalm was of course to call attention to the US napalming civilians in Vietnam

Note that if Trump tries to bring back the draft, repeating that work today only requires cyberwarfare rather than kinetic direct action.

As in Russia, also in Ukraine... 'Forced mobilization is not a sign of national resolve. It is a sign that the social foundation of the war is cracking.'

@maeve_bkk The claim does appear "speculative", or even misleading.
Ukraine has conscription. Russia does also, but with the option of alternative civilian service, like work in hospitals, or post offices. They are paid employees, not soldiers.
Ukraine is under martial law. Their men are forced to join the military. There is no civilian option.
Russia, as a whole, is not under martial law, and civilian service is an option.

@maeve_bkk How was that worded in the source you provided? I did not see that claim.
It's ironic that Ukraine forces men to fight, and they do not want to. The video below is from Ukraine.

Have you heard of "busification"?
https://busification.org
#ukraine #mobilization #conscription -
Dr. Marta Havryshko:
"...
The conscription centers provide roughly 90 percent of new recruits for the Ukrainian armed forces, making them a lifeline for the army – but also one of the darkest institutions of the Ukrainian war state. The conscription centers have become a symbol not only of militarization and forced labor, but also of state arbitrariness, impunity, and corruption.

This video appears to show a young Ukrainian man being captured by his own government, to be drafted into the war against Russia (what they call #conscription).
It's a war they do not want, but their government forces them to fight. Most Ukrainian men want their government to make peace with Russia.

Note that 1) this is a consistent theme, and 2) due to the way Finnish #conscription system works, Finnish green voter base is overrepresented (compared to population average) in the fighting strength of the Finnish military.

Very significant news/analysis by @ehasbrouck about the lessening likelihood that automatic draft registration will start in December in the USA, but also thr need for continued vigilance and organizing
Excerpt: If the SSS doesn’t get new rules and procedures in place in time, its options will be to (1) miss the legal deadline, (2) get Congress to postpone the effective date of the change in the law, or (3) get Congress to rescind the change in the law. Congress could either restore the widely ignored mandate for young men to register themselves, or repeal the Military Selective Service Act entirely.
The bottom line: “automatic” draft registration is not yet a done deal. Keep up the resistance!

"$10,000 buys you a ticket out of the draft officers' van.
$20,000 buys you an exit from the recruitment center.That's today's corruption rate in Ukraine's mobilization system, according to Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets.
Apparently, this war comes with two survival strategies: be rich or know the right people.
If you're poor, it's probably time to update your will and hug your loved ones goodbye."
