The EU Launches An $840 Billion Program To Prepare For War

European Leaders Warn That Conscription Will Be Necessary As The EU Launches An $840 Billion Program To Prepare For War With Russia

If you were drafted, would you willingly go to the killing fields of eastern Ukraine?  What about your children?  The war in Ukraine has been an endless “meat grinder” that has already claimed hundreds of thousands of Russian lives and more than a million Ukrainian lives.  Those that are sane want to see if there is a peaceful way out of this mess so that the killing can stop.  Unfortunately, vast numbers of leftists all over the United States and western Europe have been transformed into rabid pro-war lunatics that are absolutely obsessed with “defeating” Russia.  So gigantic mountains of dollars and euros have been poured into the war in Ukraine, but it hasn’t worked.  The Russians are winning, and so now European leaders are preparing to take things to the next level.

On Tuesday, Ursula von der Leyen unveiled a brand new $840 billion program that will be known as “Rearm Europe”…

The European Union will free up $840 billion in funding to funnel into defense across the bloc, European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen announced on Tuesday.

Interestingly, this new effort was announced just a few hours after President Trump paused all U.S. military aid to the Ukrainians…

Dubbed “Rearm Europe,” the remarks from the European Commission’s president came hours after President Donald Trump suspended all U.S. military aid to Ukraine, widening the gulf between Washington and Kyiv and going against the fresh commitments of support from Europe for Ukraine in recent days.

“I do not need to describe the grave nature of the threats that we face, or the devastating consequences that we will have to endure if those threats would come to pass,” von der Leyen told reporters.

Of course money won’t be enough to accomplish what European leaders have planned.

They are going to need warm bodies as well.

As most of you know, elections were just held in Germany, and the group that won is apparently pushing for a rapid reintroduction of “compulsory military service”…

Germany’s conservatives, who are set to lead the next government, on Tuesday argued that the country should quickly reintroduce compulsory military service.

Friedrich Merz, head of the CDU/CSU bloc that topped last month’s elections, has argued that in the era of US President Donald Trump, Europe will have to better handle its own security.

If I was a young person in Germany right now, I would be extremely concerned.

A spokesperson for the group that will be heading up the new government has publicly stated that the first new conscripts “will have to walk through the barracks gates in 2025”…

The defence policy spokesman of his centre-right alliance, Florian Hahn, told Bild daily that Germany’s “suspension of conscription no longer fits the current threat situation”.

“The first conscripts will have to walk through the barracks gates in 2025,” Hahn told the daily. “We cannot stand by and watch as the world around us becomes more unsafe.”

That is this year.

Why are they in such a rush?

Do they know something that the rest of us do not?

A British military official that once served in one of the top positions in NATO says that the UK must also “make plans for conscription”…

A former NATO commander has suggested that Donald Trump’s recent remarks on Ukraine could lead to the reintroduction of conscription in the UK. Trump has shocked international leaders by suggesting that Ukraine is responsible for the intensifying conflict with Russia.

Adding to the tension, US Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth announced at a conference in Brussels last week that America’s focus was shifting away from European security. “(I am) here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States of America from being primarily focused on the security of Europe,” he declared.

These developments have raised concerns about the potential outbreak of World War 3, with NATO’s former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe, Sir Richard Shirreff, considering the possibility of conscription returning to the UK. In a recent Daily Mail article, Sir Shirreff expressed his grave concerns: “Though many will find it unthinkable, we must be prepared to call up our reservists – and make plans for conscription. Trump has left us no other choice.”

Young people in the UK don’t want to die in Ukraine.

For a moment, I would like for you to consider what life is like in the trenches in eastern Ukraine.
