Ukraine claims it stopped recruiting foreigners because it's running out of weapons and they're too inexperienced

Comment: What actually happened is that the Russians scared away any more from coming...

Ukraine's 'International Legion' no longer wants foreign recruits to fight Russia, a spokesman told Canada's National Post on Friday. Despite Kiev once welcoming Westerners with open arms, it has now been revealed that supplies are low, and inexperienced volunteers aren't ready for combat.

Volunteers who've already made the journey have told horror stories of being sent to the front lines unarmed and untrained. Following the Russian offensive, videos emerged online of people claiming they joined the fight against Moscow's forces, but were given no ammo or weapons by the Ukrainian side.

Within days of Russia's military assault on the country, Kiev promised visa-free entry for foreigners willing to take up arms against Moscow's forces. Westerners could already enter the state, for 90 days, with just a normal passport.

Potential recruits visited Ukrainian embassies across the west and signed up to fight - often with the blessing of their own governments - and made their way to the battlefield.

However, the Ukrainian military was soon forced to be more selective about who could join its 'International Legion'. Recruitment was narrowed last month to those with "live combat experience," and a 'legion' spokesman told the National Post on Friday that enlistment had been paused entirely.

"There are multiple reasons (for halting recruiting) with one of them being the lack of firearms," the spokesman said. Boris Wrzesnewskyj, a former MP from Canada who had been helping the 'legion' screen applicants, told the newspaper that inexperienced recruits were of no use on the front lines.

"Some people assumed they would arrive, they would get quick training, be given a gun and head off to the front," he said. "There are all sorts of consequences if untrained people head in."

"The Ukrainian military guys I've talked to don't want to sacrifice young Canadians or young Brits for dramatic effect," Lubomyr Luciuk, a Royal Military College (RMC) professor, added. "Very quickly it becomes obvious that some of these well-intentioned volunteers are not ready."

Comment: On the contrary, one US vet who returned from the 'suicide mission' said they were used as cannon fodder. So perhaps part of the reason is that Ukraine's neo-Nazi aligned military were warned that them dying, as well as defecting en masse and revealing the truth, simply wasn't good PR?

The 'International Legion's website is still soliciting recruits, explaining the step-by-step process for anyone interested. On Reddit's 'VolunteersForUkraine' forum, potential recruits and those already in Ukraine swap advice, encouragement, and sometimes horror stories.

One poster who allegedly survived a Russian missile strike on a training center for foreign recruits last month described how his commanding officers were "sending untrained guys to the front with little ammo and s**t AKs and they're getting killed." The Reddit user said that he fled to Poland after the attack with a number of foreign veterans, as "the legion is totally outgunned as has a few crazy Ukrainian leaders. After the attack one officer wanted to march everyone to Kiev and fight. Absolute insanity. Stay home." Other posters have told similar stories, involving unprepared recruits receiving several days' training before being sent to the front with inadequate equipment.

After the strike on the training center, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said that the destruction of foreign mercenaries arriving in Ukraine "would continue."

"All locations of foreign mercenaries in Ukraine are known to us," Konashenkov said in a statement. "I want to warn you again - there will be no mercy for the mercenaries, no matter where they are on the territory of Ukraine."

Despite the 'legion' pausing recruitment, its spokesman told the National Post that Ukraine's parliament was meeting on Friday to discuss the future role of foreign volunteers in the conflict.

Umm, just keep throwing the dumb cannon fodder into the meat-grinder, as we have no use for them anyway and the vaxx-cull is still not "safe and effective" enough?

The stoopid ones will not weed themselves out if we don't give them the opportunity, amirite?

All looks like a part of the plan to me, humanity getting rid of the un-wise and agressive beyond repair, since the vaxx hoax began.. It actually all makes sense from a certain point of view - man is his own problem, as well as the solution of it and he will usually do all the hard and dirty work by himself, a prisoner of his own world-view and ego.. Just give them the possibility and someone's sure to make use of it

Who said nature wasn't cruel (and damn effective) while being fair to everyone? It truly is both, yet the cruelty is merciful, if one thinks of the consequences.. So yes, there is a great point to all the depravity of nowadays world - let it all sort out and burn itself, as everyone shows their true nature, then the cleansing can commence

"The Ukrainian military guys I've talked to don't want to sacrifice young Canadians or young Brits for dramatic effect,"

No, but you will sacrifice your own Ukrainian people by the dozen just to make yourselves look more like a victim. You Ukrainians are dog shite in the tread of my boot.

Just knowing my country helps you makes me sick to my stomach.

Ukrainian Journalist Finds Charred Remains Where Alleged War Crime Was Filmed

[Link]

KROMM · 2022-04-03T00:41:33Z

Xerox “I would like to remind all our military civilian and defense forces once again that the abuse of prisoners is a war crime that has no amnesty under military law and has no statute of limitations,” Arestovych said in a televised briefing on Sunday. “I remind everyone that we are the European army of a European country. We treat prisoners according to the Geneva Convention, no matter what your personal emotional motives.”

If one does indeed NEED to "remind" such basic stuff, then what about the rest? I mean, when does the cognitive dissonance finally kick in? Or do they prefer to die in a lie, as they've lived in a lie for their whole lives? Ukraine is "heroic" and Russia bad, bad bad bad! The Ukrainians would never commit war crimes unlike the Russians who "commit them en masse", yeah, sure is every war always one-sided and with no actual guilt on the Ukronazi party part of the party

All so damn predictable with western media, they could never let you know the truth, lest they lose their jobs forever, as who'd in their sane mind trust these lying snakes any longer

Lemuel Gulliver · 2022-04-03T08:40:37Z

I would like to make a general observation about this war. (Which it is.) This war will not be over this year, or the next, or the next. The origins of this war go back 90 years, to the genocide by Stalin and his willing henchmen of 10 million Ukrainians in 1932-1933. It does not matter to the Ukrainians that Stalin also murdered anywhere from 20 million to 60 million of his own Russian citizens, (Stalin was not Russian but Georgian,) in order to keep them in a state of such abject terror that nobody dared resist his absolute power. In the same way, the hatreds in Ireland between Protestants and Catholics go back to the Irish Potato Famine of the 1850's, and the English aristocracy's genocide in that event, and further, to the Protestant conquest of Ireland by Oliver Cromwell in the 1600's. Other examples are legion.

No, the events of this war, and the criminality on both sides, will not soon be forgotten or forgiven. Ten, twenty, or a hundred years from now, those hatreds and cruelties will be remembered, and will erupt again.

When I did a course in the University of Antwerp, we had a lecture from an American who had lived and worked in Belgium for 20 years. He said, he had not long been there when he drove from Brussels to Liege along the E40 - about 100 miles. As he drove along, he saw signs, "Liege 120km" then soon, "Luik 100 km" then soon, "Liege 80 km," then soon, "Luik 60 km" then soon, "Liege 40 km," and so on. What that was, was that the E40 is the border between northern Flanders, where people speak Nederlandse, and southern Wallonia, where people speak French. Moreover, he found that a Flemish employer would never hire a Walloon, and Wallonian employer would never hire a Flamand. What was this bitter ethnic divide in Belgium, which not too long ago caused Belgium to be without a government for several years?

It was the furthest Northern extent of the Roman Empire, the border between the Germanic tribes to the North in Nederland and the Romanic tribes to the South in Wallonia, TWO THOUSAND YEARS AGO, which still persists to this very day.

Think about that. Flanders is Dutch Protestant, Wallonia is French Roman Catholic. They speak different languages, they have different religions and they dislike each other intensely, even after TWO THOUSAND YEARS.

So, unfortunately, this war in Ukraine will not be over soon, if it will ever be over. Cruelty, violence and genocide are never forgotten, and seldom forgiven, even after hundreds or thousands of years.

KROMM · 2022-04-03T09:15:14Z

Lemuel Gulliver I OBJECT

The origins of this conflict actually do stretch MILLENIA backwards, as the Khazars are those who control the EU andd USA along with British Empire from the top-down, decimating our nations of Slavic or Aryan origin

THAT and nothing else is the reason for the Western support of Ukraine, we are bound to fight for Ukraine (former Khazarian kaganate, Robert Kagan not telling enough?! ) to the last Westerner and European against the Russians, can't you see that hidden in plain view?

[Link]
[Link]

IT HAS NOT BEGAN WITH STALIN AT ALL!!! It is much, much older conflict in fact, as the Khazarians, nowadays Ashkenazi Jew's were the force behind first two world wars, the current world war and also enslavement of the Slavs in the immoral material system of the Trotskyists and Bolsheviks! Invented by German Jews going by the names of Marx and Engels

We the Slavic people are very much aware of this blood feud, even though we are governed by this lot as well as the poor Americans are - I'm rock solid that true American and European nationalists could stand hand in hand against this MENACE, as it is what got us into nowadays situation (and ruined our countries along these centuries of lies and deceptions in order to manipulate the whole world, even create Israel in the land of the Arabs, which are semitic as well as ORIGINAL Jews living among the Arabs since like forever )

I'm sorry if I somehow stepped on your toe, but I HAD TO CORRECT IT, as even the Hassidic Jews in charge of Russia (Putin included) are well aware of this fact..!

There is plenty of (mostly innacurate) info about the Khazars on the web, as well as proving the connection of Kagans, Nulands et al. to their Khazarian ancestry, which has roots in Ukraine to this very day.. Even many prominent figures here in Czechia stem from the same origin, as it was with Madeleine Albright or the former Czech premier Babiš or the current Czech premier Fiala, who has told our entire nation "we're at war with Russia over the Ukraine", why??? Do you have ANY other explanation of all West siding with Ukraine, including European countries which have little to do with the Stalin's holodomor , other than the provable FACT of Khazarian ancestry of our so-called leaders?

Lemuel Gulliver · 2022-04-03T12:37:58Z

KROMM Thank you - sincerely - for your courteous reply. In fact, I completely agree with you. When one studies the High Holy Days of "Judaism," every one of them is a memorial to some occasion on which the "Jews" either vanquished their enemies or were persecuted by them. Passover commemorates the plagues visited upon Pharaoh and the escape of the Jews from Egypt, carting off all the gold in Pharaoh's Treasury, which is why he pursued them. Hanukah remembers a time when the Jews were imprisoned and there was only enough oil in the lamp to last for one day, but it lasted for nine days, hence the 9-branched candlestick, with one new candle lit each day. Purim remembers when Queen Esther massacred 90,000 Persians when the Jews escaped from captivity in Babylon, after it was conquered by the Persian king. The snack which they eat for Purim is called "Hamantaschen," which refers to the testicles of Haman, Queen Esther's enemy.

And so it goes. The Jews never forget, even after 3,000+ years, and never forgive their enemies. Never. There is already a High Holy Day to remember the so-called Holocaust of WWII. If Germany thinks it is forgiven after paying $85 billion in reparations, it is sadly mistaken. Even if it takes 5,000 years, the Jews will take their revenge on Germany.

The Khazarian Jews are vindictive beyond belief. They were expelled from England in 1290 by King Edward I. Many of them fled to Holland, which became very wealthy as a result. In 1625 or so, there was correspondence between the Jews of Amsterdam and Oliver Cromwell. His war to establish a republic was funded by the Dutch Jews, only provided he agreed to kill the King and allow the Jews back into England. The King, Charles I, was beheaded in 1649 and the Jews were allowed back in, officially from 1654. When the monarchy was restored in 1660 under Charles II, the Jews were allowed to remain - that was part of the bargain under which Charles II was allowed to return and re-claim the crown.

The Jews also funded the French Revolution, and the Bolshevik Revolution. Napoleon in 1806 exclaimed, "Only 14 years ago we got rid of the King and the aristocrats, and now today the Jews own all of France!" The Bolshevik revolution was financed by Jacob Schiff of the bank Kuhn, Loeb in New York, and he it was, who gave the order to Lenin to murder the Romanov Royal Family.

So yes, I know all about the Khazars, and how Prince Vladimir of Kiev in about the year 900 drove them out into northern areas which became Poland and Russia. They are a Turkic people with not a drop of Semitic blood in their veins, and they have no more claim to Palestine than I do. It is as if I should say, "Wakantanka! Wakantanka!" and claim to be a Native American, and claim a share in their casino profits. Or if a Chinaman should convert to Islam, and claim a share in Middle East oil.

There is a wonderful book by Michael Hoffman (German name, not Jewish,) called "Judaism's Strange Gods." If you can find a copy, it explains the Talmud in great detail, and how the greatest commandment of the Talmud is to exterminate Christians by any means necessary. I know all about it, and even today, their present Rabbis are racist towards Goyim beyond the worst hatreds of Adolf Hitler towards the Jews.

KROMM · 2022-04-03T13:16:07Z

Lemuel Gulliver Thank you very much, I'm pleased by your excellent awareness of the crucial matters behind the events of today's world, as it is a rarity even among the so-called homo sapiens sapiens as I'm more and more convinced that various kinds of apes actually stem from humans and not vice versa as the evolutionary theory makes us believe (based on almost no hard evidence).. The devolution of humanity during the last few centuries suggests that more than anything else, not to mention legends speaking of God's punishment for those immoral and lazy to think and be conscious by transforming them into various kinds of animals And this site here is pretty much the only one I know, where objective knowledge can be found in great amounts even in the discussions, so.. After many years of lurking around I've made an account, as everywhere else I've been banned, perhaps because they're afraid of something I speak of?

Regarding my English, I've just had the blessing of having great parents that taught me much about the world including the English language which I spoke since the age of four, though it's still far from perfect even decades later, then again the English also got simplified and devolved into an universal mess for a language across the world, thy olde English of the Victorian era or older has been much more on par with the complexity of the more complex Slavic languages.. Actually the language division is what marks many battlefronts through the ages of fratricidal wars and staged conflict by certain groups for their profit

Have a wonderful day and I too look forward to more great conversation here on SOTT, it keeps a man sane in this age of madness and growing entropy

Lemuel Gulliver · 2022-04-03T14:13:12Z

KROMM So happy to hear from you again! Do you still live in the Czech Republic? I am in Charlottesville, Virginia, USA. There are many good people here in the US, as there are in every country, (I have visited over 40 countries in my earlier days,) but the educational system is terrible and getting worse all the time. The vast majority of people get their "facts" and "morals" from the established media, who are the greatest bunch of liars, thieves, and perverts imaginable. What made America great, once upon a time, was its intellectual freedom. Americans were revolutionaries, always questioning and challenging the accepted narrative, always asking,"Why?" and "Why not?" This freedom of thought is what caused all the great inventions and technology of the past 130 years to be created in America, and made it the richest nation in the world at one time.

Now, Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, and George Soros believe they know better, and should tell us what to think and how to behave. They cannot see that if they succeed, it will destroy America, and its amazing progress will grind to a halt. It is already happening.

I have a great affection for the Slavic people, who are very much misunderstood in the West. Ever since the year 1054, when the Roman Catholic Church and the Greek Orthodox Church finally split apart irrevocably, the West has tried to both physically and psychologically conquer first, Byzantium, and later, Russia. Yes, it goes that far back. The Sack of Constantinople in 1204 by Western Catholics during the Fourth Crusade fatally weakened Byzantium, from which it never fully recovered, leading to its final conquest by Sultan Mehmet II in 1453. (Many lessons for us today in that history!) Russia then became to torch-bearer of Orthodox Christianity, and Moscow, as you probably know, was called the Third Rome, Byzantium having been the Second Rome.

Orthodox Christianity was actually the original version, its dogma being settled in 325 AD at the Council of Nicaea, called together by Emperor Constantine. It was not until sometime in the Fifth Century that the Bishop of Rome started calling himself Pontifex Maximus and claiming to be the leader of Christianity, based on Rome being the supposed last resting-place of Saints Peter and Paul.

This is all significant, because it goes back to the root of why the West hates Russia, and always has, "Russia" being the origin of the "Rus" or Slavic peoples, including the (unfortunately misled) Ukrainians. Today, there is also a major factor of greed, and a lust to steal Russia's immense resources and wealth, mostly driven by the greediest people in the world, the Khazarian Jews. Their technique has always been to get Christians to fight and kill each other, leaving their wealth for the Jews to pick up.

Do you have a family in Czechia? I am alone here, no children, but observing the state of the world right now, perhaps that has relieved me of one more worry. Be well,

- LG

Lemuel Gulliver · 2022-04-03T14:23:58Z

KROMM PS: In the last 150 years, all languages have devolved. If you read books in English or French from the 19th Century, the language is so much more complex, beautiful and evocative than today's dumbed-down literature. And it gets worse and worse, with the advent of smartphones and social media in the last 20 years. Not only do these murder language, but they also murder intellect and rational thought. You mention other sites on the Web and their abusiveness. I have always maintained that, especially in America, the lack of language and reason, no longer taught in schools, leads people first, to be unable to organize their thoughts, and second, to be unable to defend their beliefs with logic. In this situation, having no language to conduct a rational discourse, they resort to violence against anyone who does not share their opinions. And with smartphones, television, and social media, it gets worse and worse every year.

KROMM · 2022-04-03T15:15:10Z

Lemuel Gulliver I completely agree with both of your comments and yes, we're living in Czech Republic but have been thinking lately of relocating, though I'm personally not very convinced about that, since the sheeple are in majority everywhere and Russia wouldn't accept us regarding the political situation

However I still believe in the victory of Reason and humanity, we just gotta wait a little bit longer until the boosters kick in

LindaMay · 2022-04-03T15:16:20Z

Lemuel Gulliver the Bhagavad Gita speaks of the IN-Breath and OUT-Breath (of God), I have mentioned often in appropriate spaces here over the years. We are totally in synch with the NatureAL Order of things. Where the hiccup is is in the state of chaos parked in humanoids; people's bodies. That laissez-faire hysteria is the MAGNET, creation of over-the-top distress,

entropy.

KROMM · 2022-04-03T18:20:29Z

LindaMay I really like your way of thinking, everything indeed is at it should be, however we often can't get past our own insecurities and fear of the future, so stoicism might well be the key to getting in harmony with the nature and environment - why outrage at every event you cannot do anything about? Better to focus on things that can be done and own unique talents and contribution to the society and I mean like-minded people, not the parasites.. We need to build an alternative structure bottom-up and abandon the top-down scheme of governance.. By the way, that's the ancient Slavic style of governance, a hundred men chose the best one among them, which was put together with 99 similar men chosen from thousands and etcetera etcetera until the top leader and his suite were elected and of course they had to be responsible for their actions, as people kept an eye on them (some in the hopes of replacing them) and the system actually stood for thousands of years until we the "barbaric pagans" were decimated and conquered in terrible bloodshed by Christian crusades.. And they thought of us barbaric since we lived much more close to the nature and used her gifts extensively for our well-being.. However after the fall of Tartary nothing stood in their way to cleanse the remnants with fire and sword and re-educate the surviving children to their image of Christ the Savior

Don't take me as anti-Christian, I'm just aware that last TRUE Christianity died along with Gnosticism and Byzantine Empire, Catholicism and Russian Orthodox are more similar to each other than to original Christianity or the Slavic culture, Pravoslavie .. Actually since Christianity became infiltrated by the pagans of Rome's Saturn temple and Rome adopted this perverted version of Christianity, things have gone down the hill and towards globalization and world domination, that is why every independent nation or race had to be crushed, divided and kept busy with fratricidal conflicts to this very day

Ukraine claims it stopped recruiting foreigners because it's running out of weapons and they're too inexperienced

Might that be because those countries that encouraged them getting into trouble, both because of the flow of body bags back home and diplomatic notes from Russia ?

LindaMay · 2022-04-03T11:37:33Z

Regarding the highly intelligent and beautifully written intellectual comments above (which fascinate me tons for so many reasons ) let non-conflict aka health intervene.

Health is not the absence of dis-ease or discord, health is the organic natural emanation of PH BALANCE in other words a body (be it physical emotional mental environmental societal govenmental religious country nation etc etc) MUST exude BALANCE in the PRESENT, here and now , or it is warped in discord; masked.

Until we humanoids prioritize balance within our own body mind and heart -- we are in CONFLICT...inside us and OUTSIDE us and conflict is what we get. IT is irrelevant who, how, when, where it came from or why. The TIME IS NOW. The CHANGE must happen IN the INdivideDUAL. (Toi et Moi)

Don't like what you get, change what you give to yourself first! and witness your world, OUR WORLD transform.

Amen

LindaMay · 2022-04-03T15:00:45Z

Lemuel Gulliver ohhh I do and did LG, just now above I could listen to you for hours and feel "safety". It fascinates me how the discourse, although I comprehend nor remember any of it (nor would want to because I must come from another solar system lolll and it is just not possible for me) I still enjoy and read thouroughly. It makes me feel so good and I often ponder about why that would be so. SAFETY is but one answer (and my Dad's concise ordered knowledge of history about... peoples and music and land/celestial masses and inventions etc etc etc) was always magically based on foundational structure, the fundamental basics of Nature herself. He made sure that what he spoke about was proven by what he reflected on his WALK. Everything he stood for was straight and solid and consequential whilst expressed thru childlike innocence joy generosity and tenderness. Anyhow (but this is what your + few others' writings brings up I find that FASCINATING. ) It boils down to your sharing of

living to love, loving to live.

Life is meant to be loved and lived, experienced, meaning not only of the mind.

As I wrote in my above comment HEALTH (Balanced PH) is the fundamental basis for all PEACE. I am so lucky, for my entire 6 decades here, to have had that modeled by my DAD. Dad I keep saying, you're my Ernte DankFest.

Unapplied knowledge is just data, information. Applied knowledge is wisdom.

Lemuel Gulliver · 2022-04-04T09:38:42Z

LindaMay Baybars KROMM I too am very glad they put that beautiful fish back into the river. May he/she live many, many more years and grow so wise that he/she refuses any more fish hooks. You know, this is not just because of my age, but I believe all sentient beings grow in wisdom as they age, and in the olden times before Christianity, our race and other races held this understanding as sacred.

Ancient trees, which have seen many generations of men come and go, were revered in those days, and men would build their temples within sacred groves of ancient trees. The design of Greek and Roman temples reflects this - an inner box-like temple sanctum enclosed within a surrounding arcade of columns, representing a sacred grove of trees, and in the Corinthian style of column, a carved finial at the top with branches and leaves. Most people do not understand the meaning of ancient temples, and why columns became part of the standard architecture. I once was in an ancient stand of trees, not far from where I live, and I could feel their warmth, gravity, serenity, and compassion for us short-lived other beings. We chop them down without a thought. Sheer unfeeling ignorance.

Kromm, you are absolutely right. Gnosticism is (the) original religion. (The) in quotes because it is not one religion, but universal. Every extant religion in the world, and many that have died out, were all founded on Gnosticism, and all had the identical message, which is this: Salvation from this endless cycle of births and deaths will only happen when the mind and the soul come to personally KNOW God. Faith can only take you a small part of the way. True knowledge comes only from personal experience, and Gnosticism is the teaching of the realities of the Cosmos, and the initiation into the techniques of coming to KNOW God while living in this human body.

The problem with Christianity, (Christ was a Gnostic,) is that in 325 AD, at the Council of Nicaea, the belief in reincarnation was removed from Christian dogma. Once that fundamental truth is denied, nothing else in Christian dogma makes much sense. A minister once told me that reincarnation "lost by two votes," out of the 160 or so bishops there assembled. The churches know this, but hide it from the public.

Once one comes closer to God, some things begin to become clear. The essence of Source, (let us call it that, because It created millions of other creative beings which manifested the millions of physical Universe(S) and are worshiped as Gods by the established religions of the world,) that essence is in every living being, from the microbes to the whales. It is even in the mountains and the clouds - it is everywhere. Skeptics ask: Who created God? And religious people, having no answer, simply scoff at them. But it is a good question. The answer is, Source created God, and all the millions of Gods in all the millions of Universes. God created our bodies and all we see, but only by employing the power granted to God by Source, and only with the wish and approval of Source.

To know Source, that is Gnosticism. But imagine - this means knowing that, which even God does not know. Do we think this is an easy or trivial process and a small thing? Not so. It is a process which takes dozens of human lifetimes to achieve, and meanwhile, the Universe must continue, and so, after the Gnostic Saints pass on, (Source is not going to break the rules his deputies - Gods - have created, and all Gnostic Saints must die,) their followers found a religion. This religion serves an essential purpose, that of a vehicle in which human beings can approach nearer and nearer to Source, over many lifetimes, until they are purified enough to return to Source.

I hope this makes sense. I have a habit of going on and on, and I hope it resonates with you. Another thing I have found in many, many years of learning, is that when one hears Truth, one recognizes it immediately as such. "When the Disciple is ready, the Guru appears." Until then, the future disciple will walk right past the Guru, and not recognize him. But the Guru (which is Source) watches constantly, and "sees the Prodigal Son approaching when he is still afar off, and goes out with joy to meet him."

All of you, dear friends, have a wonderful week, and let us look forward to more fun and adventure in this playground of the soul.

"US officials would scream like banshees for being hoisted on their own petard." Maybe not banshees. More like little girls. Cowards.
