Lindsey Graham has said he cannot believe Kiev is allowing its youth to remain in the rear

US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) has urged the Ukrainian parliament to pass a highly controversial mobilization bill that would lower the minimum conscription age from 27 to 25 to compensate for battlefield losses. At the same time, he advocated a scheme in which the US would provide Ukraine with loans instead of non-repayable aid.

Kiev announced general mobilization in February 2022 shortly after the start of the conflict with Russia, with men between 27 and 60 eligible to be called up, although those over the age of 18 could also volunteer. In December, Ukrainian officials proposed a bill expanding the draft bracket, with reported plans to send as many as 500,000 fresh soldiers to the front line.

RICH MAN’S WAR, POOR MAN’S BLOOD

“War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.”General Smedley Butler

Guns N’ Roses – Civil War

Whether it is a distinguished general who came to his senses in 1935, after doing the bidding of the monied interests by initiating conflict throughout the world to fill their coffers with blood money, or a rock & roll star fifty years later writing a hit song about the exact same theme, the song remains the same. The wealthy always benefit from war, the poor always die in their wars, and politicians are bribed to continually foment conflict, hate, and railing against whoever their puppet masters choose as the enemy of the moment. This is not a recent development, it has spanned centuries, just the sums of money feeding the military industrial complex are now astronomical.

Lindsay Graham – Ready to Declare War on Iran?

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Military Strength by Country

These Neocons are living under the false assumption that the United States is overwhelmingly powerful and that the entire world can be brought to its knees in a matter of days. Our active military is only 1.4 million compared to Russia and China, which are at 3.2 million. Even India has 1.5 million. They think because we are a major nuclear power, that nations will tremble when we say boo.  Before this began, Iran had 610,000 active. Israel had just under 170,000. Sources say that Iran has had a flood of people rushing to sign up when they raised the black flag—perhaps 2 million.

Neocons Pushing for Nuclear War NOW!

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Lindsay-Graham-Resolution.mp4?_=1

The most notorious Washington Neocon, Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC), and his equal Neocon on the Democratic side, Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), have introduced a Resolution in the Senate in hopes of justifying World War III stating that if Russia, or one of its Proxy Belarus just as Ukraine is our Proxy, detonates a Tactical nuclear bomb inside Ukraine, or if something happens to the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant causing radiation leakage, then they want to use nuclear weapons and are saying they will completely annihilate Russia. They are calling that “an attack upon NATO” claiming that radiation would spread to Europe,  triggering a full-blown nuclear war.

“Russians are dying. It’s the best money we’ve ever spent,” Lindsey Graham tells Zelensky, while Hillary makes fun of Putin’s height

Guest Post by Mark Crispin Miller

Those two—and they are not the only ones—should be confined to Walter Reed, for our protection

Whereas most of “our free press” ignored the senator’s horrendous crack (as reported by Ukraine, although he hasn’t disavowed it), they’re now all barking about Russia’s warrant for his arrest—which he, brave man, declares “a badge of honor.”

This disgusting spectacle comes six days after Hillary Clinton—formerly the US Secretary of State (!)—got many laughs with a derisive public riff about “short guy” Vladimir Putin, whom she also called “narcissistic,” “messianic” and “authoritarian” (an apt description of the woman who, in a TV interview, exulted in the violent death of Muammar Qaddafi—“We came, we saw, he died!”—and proposed a drone strike against her critic Julian Assange).

Russia Issued an Arrest Warrant for Lindsey Graham

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Russia has issued an arrest warrant for Lindsey Graham and quite honestly, it is not a surprise. Graham has NEVER seen a Russian he did not want dead. He has been one of the hardline Neocons who always is willing to throw American lives away for his constant agenda of conquering the world to promote the fake US version of democracy where we NEVER have a right to vote on anything important from debt ceilings to war.

Lindsay Graham Meets With Zelensky – Says Ukraine War ‘Best Money We’ve Ever Spent’

Via ZeroHedge

Lindsay Graham, a remnant of the Bush era Neocon fold, has been a busy bee in the past year.  He has visited Ukraine at least three times since the war with Russia began, called for the assassination of Vladimir Putin, called for the US to directly attack Russian planes, and he’s even demanded that the US put troops on the ground in Taiwan to fight the Chinese.  It just goes to show that there are certainly a number of politicians that identify as GOP Republicans that do not represent the will of most conservatives and moderates.

Graham’s latest visit with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky has been broadly publicized.  Andriy Yermak, the head of the president’s office, released footage of the meeting, intercut with dramatic piano music for effect:
