1. This is a wild exaggeration: There are lots of men walking in Ukrainian streets.

2. Why single out Ukraine here? Isn't this what any country does with people who don't appear for the draft? (Unless they can pay a doctor to diagnose them with bone spurs or something?)

With the right papers clearing them of draft obligations, sure.

Because this is the best example right now that everyone knows and can somewhat relate to. Unless you happen to know any other western country currently doing this.

>>> Just grab any man you see on the street, throw him in the van and ship him to the conscription office for processing.

So basically you agree with me that it was a wild exaggeration?

[1] Also your computer seem to have a bug where its clipboard selectively remove words (see the part in italics) from the text you quote without inserting ellipsis or any kind of marker to indicate it. The alternative would be that you very deliberately misrepresent what I wrote and that wouldn't be a nice thing to accuse you of.
