Volunteer fighters armed with assault rifles in Kyiv ready to defend Ukraine
- pelasaco 5y agoProbably now the german helmets would be useful, but Germany just delayed the delivery and it's still on their way.. Maybe DHL can send it directly to Moskow. https://www.businessinsider.com/helmets-germany-offered-ukraine-en-route-days-after-russian-invasion-2022-2 https://www.businessinsider.com/helmets-germany-offered-ukra...
- pelasaco 5y agocan you imagine that in your city? When I think about Berlin, I can just laugh.
- pjmlp 5y agoLets hope it wont be like that in Berlin in couple of months down the line.
- pelasaco 5y agoHope but we have to demand from the politicians decisions that move us away from the conflict, not towards the conflict.
- pjmlp 5y agoI am fully in agreement. Being a child from the 70s, having had family in the colonial wars, and the whole cold war, followed by Balkans war, I have a bad sense about all of this. Still lets hope it gets sorted out without going that far.
- nojokes 5y agoThe only way away now from the conflict is towards it.
- pelasaco 5y agoWould be pathetic to see Scholz running away and Lindner and Habeck together with Ödemir leading our troops
- pjmlp 5y agoYeah, but that is the big difference between modern warfare and the ancient ones. The leaders aren't in the frontline among their soldiers leading the charge, rather seat comfortable at home kilometres away issuing orders. That makes a big difference how decisions are taken.
- rasz 5y agoTruly unprecedented https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkssturm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkssturm Berlin was defended by children https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_use_of_children_in_World_War_II#Other_German_involvement https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_use_of_children_in_Wo...
- pelasaco 5y agoI'm more thinking on Berlin today. Would our government give automatic weapons to abou-chaker clan? To right wing groups? The Osmanen or any other biker group? That wouldn't work.
- credit_guy 5y agoNot sure if it’s wise to give civilians weapons without giving them uniforms.
