So firstly haven't they offered citizenship for service for a while? Are they just ramping up the recruitment?
Second... This is really a surreal thing to see them pushing. I mean, has there not been a growing amount of fascist/supremacist movements with military personnel? Seems like those groups would be fighting something like this pretty hard.
Third, isn't this kind of what led to the fall of Rome? Or at least one of the symptoms of a failing empire? They filled their armies with soldiers from conquered lands. Taught them their strategies and trained them up. Then those "outsourced" armies just turned around and said "thanks for the training and weapons, we are going to go to war with you now."
Not sure if they've been doing this already, but yeah looks like they're trying to ramp that up. And interesting point regarding the military being full of white supremacists. I'm sure they're not going to be thrilled by this. And yeah, this is absolutely following the path of Rome in decline.
They were doing it back when I was in, which was several years ago.
They sure were doing it before. Probably just advertising it more now to prep for something.
