Zelensky will be lucky to get 20 percent of that 500,000. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:
Ukraine’s parliament on Thursday passed an ultra-controversial military mobilization law aimed at drastically boosting the number of its troops at a moment forces are facing severe manpower shortages amid the unrelenting Russian onslaught.
It passed with a clear majority supporting, with 283 votes in favor in the 450-member parliament. The NY Times writes in the wake of the much-anticipated vote, “The law passed by legislators on Thursday addresses the issue of mobilization broadly, and includes provisions that lawmakers said were aimed at making the conscription process more transparent and equitable. The full text of the law was not immediately available.”
But among the most immediately controversial elements will include expanded powers given to Ukrainian authorities to issue draft notices on a larger scale, including using an electronic system. It also reportedly expands the age for draft registration, including for those living abroad.
Recruiters have long sought to stamp out draft evasion, to the point of tackling and arresting young men in the streets, after which they are sent to brief training and then the front lines.
Will it be like Cross Of Iron where Steiner is at the infirmary recovering and Herr General comes in to round up anyone with arms and legs remaining?
This after he goes to shake hands and the Wehrmacht soldier in wheelchair only has stumps left.
That nurse though…ohh la la! (s/)
Steiner… is a myth. Men like him are our last hope… and in that sense, he is a truly dangerous man.

Fun trivia: Over 100 years ago Rudolf Steiner predicted destruction of the soul with a diabolical plot to vaccinate all of humanity.
Hmm…so hmm.
Ya they’ll fight Russia to the lust sucker who haven’t left already Ukraine.
