British soldiers told to get ready for war against Russia - and prepare loved ones
Mirror (UK) ^ | 21 Aug 2022 | Sean Rayment

Posted on 08/22/2022 1:31:00 AM PDT by Mount Athos

The Army’s top “other ranks” soldier says troops must be ready to fight Russia – and should alert loved ones to a potential conflict.

The time had come to prepare “families and loved ones” for the possibility of being sent to the East.

WO1 Carney – the Army’s highest ranked Warrant Officer – wrote in Soldier magazine: “I want us all to check we are physically fit for operations. And it is also important we prepare loved ones and families, who often have the hardest role in our absence.

“My ask is that you have discussions about a potential deployment with them now. Find the numbers for the support networks and the relevant people who can help them.

General Sir Richard Dannatt, former head of the Army, said: “This is prudent advice from the Army’s top soldier.”

His alert echoes a warning from General Sir Patrick Sanders, head of the Army, who said in June: “We are the generation that must prepare the Army to fight in Europe once again.”

(my comment) Will history repeat?

Syria was falsely accused of using chemical weapons, even though this never made any sense from a standard "who benefits" analysis.

This fabricated event was blasted throughout the press and government to justify a massive western escalation and intervention that resulted in far more people dying.

Ukraine is a proxy war like Syria was.

Will Ukraine (really the west) attack the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, and fraudulently blame Russia for the ensuing radiation catastrophe to justify a massive new escalation and intervention that will result in far more people dying and a dramatically prolonged war?

A mirror image repeat of the Syrian chemical warfare false accusation?

There are signs that say yes.

The press is already making fully insane claims that Russia has been attacking the nuclear power plant it has controlled for many months.

This is level of journalistic malpractice and absurdity that is really hard to believe.

The article in this thread is an additional piece of supporting evidence, that the UK is officially telling its soldiers to prepare for a new anti-Russian deployment to Ukraine.

The British military have plenty of new inhabitants and immigrants living on their island they refer to as “British citizens” who can do the fighting for them in the Infantry to do actual combat. Same with the U.S. government who value immigrants. They’re plenty in numbers in both countries.

That may have been the plan.

Prove yourself loyal by taking up arms for your new country.

Possibly, but I’m not sure.

One can’t say for certain, but our elites want to depopulize the world by 95%.

Disease, war and famine are great depopulizers.
Anybody not part of the club is considered expendable by our planet gods.

Public events prohibited starting 22th August to 25th August in Kyiv due to the missile attack threat


There is no chance that Britain is going to engage Russia. They have given away most of what meager amount of weaponry they had to Ukraine. As of 2022, the British Army comprises 80,976 regular full-time personnel. No one in the British Army would ever attempt that fight...:-)

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

OK, but remember…the Brits have prioritized hiring minorities and women over white males. So I’m sure the well-diversified flying units are going to be fine against the Soviets.

Does Europe have the draft?
Or the laws in place for a draft?

I couldn’t imagine Brits accepting they must be deployed for this; while we’ve wasted the lives of our volunteer troops, I don’t see any conscription occurring here in the US. Besides the silliness of the whole charade, the military has become so politicized nobody should accept they can be drafted into it.

Watched a video on the French Foreign Legion, in which a commander said if the troops died in operations it would save a Frenchman’s life. He pulled no punches about what they would be used for: So the French wouldn’t lose their own people. In five years, the legionnaires would become “French” as well.

In the United Kingdom, military conscription has existed for two periods in modern times. The first was from 1916 to 1920, and the second from 1939 to 1960. The last conscripted soldiers left the service in 1963.

Brits are not going to accept being drafted into a war with Russia over Ukraine. Neither are Americans. And I don’t think Germans would be willing to fight even if they were attacked...:-) But, they will send the others a nice, big check to their NATO lackeys, I mean partners.

Same thing in the U.S. They would never ask or expect them to invest any blood and soil. They have it way too comfortable here. Asians, Arabs, and Indians don’t have to follow the same rules grassroot Americans do. That would be too, White, and they can’t appeal to them, anymore, to fight their wars. Recruitment numbers from the Heartland are way down.

Whites fill most of our front-line combat units and the great majority of our war dead, not immigrants, where do you get the idea that immigrants do our fighting?

Have to laugh. The nation of shopkeepers wants to go to war to end occupation in far off shores. Meanwhile the pommie gits occupy the territory of a nation closer to home. Ireland. Go to hell limey aholes

Nonsense.

People fight well because they have skin in the game and because they come from nations and cultures which infuse them with pride and character.

Otherwise, they fight because they will be shot if they retreat.

Which kind of fighting do you think leads to victory.

New immigrants who are merely opportunists or, even worse, dislike their new country, are a liability, not an asset.

The Russia/Ukraine issue is historically and politically murky at best.

What is the UK's interest in fighting there?
