They will get a task, they will do their best. Thats how army works. Do you think they will be given a map and compass and be instructed to take out Putin? They are standing up for democracy, something they cant easily do here. Hats off to any of them that proceed. Im guessing you have a great grasp of the surroundings, when you heading there? Nothing to do with democracy, which can only be raised by political education, conscious organised action and not by gun barrel (which contradicts thinking and rational solution to problem, including diplomatic once in case of an international conflict). any war is antidemocratic, order given by a leader to kill the others, thinking, looking different. nothing as spanish international volunteers corp, who were ideologically motivated, nothing as those thai mercenaries, brainless, unconscious killing machines, guns for hire, assassins, for whom only money matters and they dont have a clue about the country, conflict, politics Edited March 2, 2022 by internationalism 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted March 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2022 Excellent. Not only shows courage on the part of these youth, but also shows how morally bankrupt the leadership here is. Let us contrast this. The youth are willing to fight for a democratic nation that is on the right side of history, while the toxic, barely legitimate, cowardly dinosaurs are unwilling to even go as far as criticizing Russia, for fear of losing some money. Humanity vs. cash. Youth vs. dinosaurs. Right vs. wrong. Change vs. regression. Vigor vs. decay and absolute rot. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherFarang8 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Please don’t sign up, brave Thai soldier. When even Nato won’t dare to stand against Russians, what chance do you have?

sqwakvfr Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) A) If you actually can make it into Ukraine then you are pretty much "At Your Own Risk". Doubt the Urkainian Goverment will ask if you medical insurance? Even if you have insurance "War Zone" exclusion will probably apply B) One would have to fly themselves to Poland, Hungary, or Romania and then find ground transportation to the Ukraine border C) if one actually can get into Ukraine and then get into combat does anyone really believe NATO(it actually stands for NO ACTION TALK ONLY) will medically evacuate you??? The ideal type of foreign fighters to assist Ukraine would be PMC;s (Private Military Companies). I have worked in the past for a couple of these organizations and believe some are probably ramping up right now? Yes, Blackwater has rebranded several times and are still in business. Keep in mind names like Dyn Corp, Constellis and see if certain foreign forces in Ukraine who are well equipped with western weapons(AR-15's etc) and equipment (Armored Vehicles) are observed to be operating.

He told its staff that he was there to enlist to help Ukraine’s army fight off Russian invaders. “I want the Ukrainian people to know that they are not alone,” he said in an interview last night, identifying himself only by his first name. “If they ask for help, I’m willing to answer.” In Thailand, the Ukrainian Embassy in Bangkok has publicized an email address for those who want to enlist. https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/i-did-not-join-ukraine-as-a-thai-national-but-as-a-human-being-former-airman-volunteers-to-fight-russian-invasion/ Just one question: What Royal Thai Air Force solder want tol do in the Ukraine when there is not an intact aerodrome and aircraft? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to survive to do the right thing? Some times when standing up to tyranny, in the name of freedom people have more guts than the cowards who invade with large armies on the pretext that its a battle to quash nazi's and instead bomb residential area's committing war crimes. photo Source Edited March 2, 2022 by Bkk Brian 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the youtube channel for Johnny FD you will see that just yesterday he and another youtuber bald and bankrupt caught the train from Kyiv to Poland to escape.

Funnily enough when I served with the Royal Air Force every year we had rifle practice and exercises that we took part in. If all the aircraft were destroyed, we,were then deployed as local defence troops. Were you ever in the military? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banana7 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 There is a Facebook group move out of Thailand, or something like that. Many are disgusted with the current government, the current law 112 and see no hope that Thailand will get a decent government who promotes freedom of speech, democracy and justice for all. For many Thai, going to an operational theater of war is better than having a life in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think in war torn country there is much space for freedom of speech, democracy and justice, for which they strove. That until they join peace corp - but that is volunteering, no payment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
