He also worked with intelligence gathering and was deemed a "reactionry" by portucucks
He wrote about this on two books (only in Portuguese): "Angola - Comandos especiais contra cubanos" (Angola, Special Commands against Cubans) and "A opção pela espada" ("The option for the sword), his most general book (you can read parts of it here, in portuguese macua.org/livros/opcaoespada.html)
Are there wars like that nowadays? My life has no meaning and i hate comunists, i've been waiting for a new spanish civil war but it is taking too long, maybe i could go fight comunists elsewhere and come back more prepared if i survive Tips?
James Cox
Zimbabwe is about to implode, Vietnam and China might go to war anytime now (both are commies now so that sucks), seems like you lost your opportunity to fight in Colombia and Peru (but I think FARC is full of shit and ain't going away this easy so maybe you still have a chance to BTFO commies in the jungle), turks fight against commie kurds from time to time but then you'd literally be allied with very shit muslim actors, some members of RENAMO are currently in an insurgency against the government, Ethiopia is fighting some groups who sound like commies, there's the internal conflict in Bangladesh where the government is fighting both muslims and commies, there's the naxalite communists fighting against India + some other commies in Northeast India, some of the rebels in Myanmar used to be commies but I won't check teh wiki page of all of them (a lot) to find out if they still are, etc
There are some conflicts, it seems
But most are not as large as the ones dude in pic in OP fought in, and some are currently cold
Also seems like antifas in Sweden are growing bold and breaking shit up so maybe a Swedish Civil War in the future
Commies always like to pull shit up in Latin America too, and you can fight cubans, nicaraguans, venezuela, etc when they start to fall and get rekt
Asher Rivera
If you wanna fight jihadist though, almost all wars today involves at least some islamist fucker
Dylan Bailey
thanks for the reply, will look into it
Ayden Sanchez
k, life is no call of duty tho, keep that in mind if you're not a larping faggot
also it's probably illegal to join foreign fights unless maybe u side with the government
India is an easy pick since they have a legitimate government that is properly elected and shit
Joshua Bennett
>Served the French Foreign Legion (1972-1973) >1 year So he deserted or what?
Ayden Rodriguez
I dunno, he was a literal mercenary so he probably just left and shit. I didn't buy the book so I really don't know
He has a blog but I'd have to search to find out
Maybe they accepted temporary volunteers back then?
Noah Watson
Don't think so. FFL aren't mercenaries for hire. They were always part of the French armed forces. You can't just up and leave when you please. You can only desert or leave after you served full time of your contract which is 5 years minimum.
Cooper Gutierrez
Yes. Have a bump.
Gavin Ortiz
>mercenary-wars.net/books/option-by-the-sword.html one of the titles for his period in the FFL mentions he was arrested and the next chapter is titled after him leaving Corsica, so maybe he was kicked out
Evan Clark
that's some crazy shit when u think about it, leaving your country to fight in foreign shitholes that have nothing to do with u
and later on he became a pilot in the amazon and wrote some books (including kids' books kek)
apparently portuguese veterans like him too and some people in Portugal tried to fuck with him cause of his book
also one of his blog posts is titled "mini manual for survival in brazil" and "guide of reaction" kek, its like some survivalist stuff
Angel Anderson
Yep, could be. I've read about a guy who was arrested by FFL MP and was beaten, tortured really and he just fled the island when he was given opportunity.
Jaxon Morales
There are a few independent outfits of American vets supporting the Kurds in their fight against ISIS. Join up with them.
David Sanchez
he talks about torture so that's it
What the fuck do you have to do to be tortured by the FFL?
Benjamin Parker
isn't the kurdistan comunist? the rojava garbage all the antifas talk about?
Logan Jackson
some strayans joined assyrian militias too, they're way smaller though
William Mitchell
Assad accepts volunteers. Join the fight against ISIS, Islamic militants and communists.
Zachary Myers
the Pershmerga isn't, Rojava is weirdo socialists and shit.
In Syria/Iraq you could join Assyrian (christian) militas, or some of the militias in Lebanon's border (also christian). Some work with the government, some with kurds (both Rojava and Pershmenrga).
The ones allied with Pershmerga are the safest call, probably, since in Iraq government and Kurds are all on the same side fighting only ISIS, while Syria is volatile as fuck
Usually it's a fight, I think. Any serious breach of discipline will get you locked up and most likely physically punished. Especially if your CO doesn't like you.
Chase Ward
Angola and a lot of other "Marxist" African states didn't practice Marxism-Leninism. They usually were just trying to get aid from Russia.
Jeremiah Allen
that's some hardcore stuff
is it common to beat the fuck out of soldiers nowadays? I had family in the army and at most I hear of people getting arrested for any reason (like not tying your boots right kek), but never heard about physical punishment. Our army never does shit though
Ayden Gomez
Rojava is run by a form of libertarian socialism called democratic confederalism. They're not Marxist-Leninist.
Nolan Hall
Foreign legion is a lot of high test shitskins who were routinely beaten and tortured mentally in a place they call the 'farm'. They call it training. They break you and remake you into a tool of NATO interests to throw at the front lines. Since you're foreigner no one will miss you. No libcuck paper in France will bitch about legionaries dying. Eventually most recruits turn into brutal sadistic fucked up people.
It's not like any modern army really. They just have no rights. Anyone higher than you in the chain of command can fuck you up and God help you if you decide to complain.
Jackson Rodriguez
I guess that makes sense since they're not (I suppose) citizens and work outside france, it's like the guantanamo loophole
Blake Turner
that's probably illegal though, after all the fillibustering in the XIXth century kept causing the government problems
and yeah, wtf do all these militias do? they seem like they just LARP all year long desu
Wyatt Wood
Yeah that was my question. Foreign legion hitches are ten years.
Daniel Perez
We have all these militias in the USA, yet none of them go out and do useful work. We should form a militia that actually goes out and fights warlords, terrorists, and commies.
William Phillips
I thought they were 6.
Jonathan Morris
>i've been waiting for a new spanish civil war Fuck off and chimp out somewhere far from Spain. God damnit I miss the empire.
Blake Hill
They do a bit a training, but yeah it's basically LARPing. I'm not against fighting against the government in a militia, but when you have an official militia with a website and a membership list, do you really think the government doesn't keep tabs on you? Do you really think you won't be the first ones arrested in a rebellion? Just keep your head down, be a normal Joe, then occasionally slip a bomb under a car, a some poison into a drink, or snipe a senator from the forest.

Christopher Young
There's also a small growing communist insurgence in Paraguay, they are so few in number and so poorly armed that I bet fucking Bolivia could take them out in a few weeks yet after all these years they are still roaming free and they occasionally fuck up some peasants
Gabriel Ward
>Franco >empire. >Ni uno de esos partidos es anti-EU >O se vota lo mismo o check your privilege: the party 0/10 would not vote >Language is Spanish >Capital is literally called Santiago :^)
Aiden Ward
Why dont you post his name first you fucking monkey
Levi Gomez
they threatened brs recently (if it is the EPP), but some paraguayan user told me they were small, dumb and a non-threat so i didn't take it seriously
Now that they lost power I don't think it's impossible they might try to start this kind of shit again in this continent
Lauri Törni made officer rank in the Finnish Army, the Waffen SS and the Green Berets against commies.
Angel Torres
he only fought commies tho, he calls himself a "professional warrior" in his blog and says calling people like him "mercenaries" is a fruit of subversion that calls anyone pro-western a mercenary (associated with bad things) and anyone who goes somewhere else to fight against the west (even if getting money) a freedom fighter or a internationalist
Eli Sanders
I know of a uruguayan guy who joined the FFL and two years later he deserted during a paraschute training exercise in corsica too. he took a shipp to italy and then a plane back home. do the FFL chase after you or they just ban you from france or what?
Ryder Phillips
>Twenty five years ago I deserted from the Legion Estrange. Is there any way off getting a pardon.
>Deserting the Foreign legion is a misdemeanor (délit pénal) in French law. The maximum sentence is 3 years of prison. Most people who are convicted for desertion of the foreign legion are sentenced to suspended prison. If you deserted 25 years ago, you should be covered under the three year statue of limitation. Nothing should happen to you. A pardon is issued by the French President after a person has been convicted and decision is definitive. Were you convicted? justanswer.com/french-law/4h9ka-twenty-five-years-ago-deserted-legion-estrange.html
apparently they throw u in jail
just stay outside french jurisdiction tho
David Butler
I'll join you in the Spanish civil war to come and the Swedish one as well. Whose side are you going to be on during the Spanish civil war (unless you can't say over the internet)?
Isaac Evans
it's Podemos vs PP at most, and anyone who fights for Podemos should khs desu
its the only place where people spoke portuguese and it was probably cheaper to go there desu
anglos could go to asia though
Brayden Lopez
see >During the early seventies I had two policy options open to me, and they were clearly opposed. I chose the one that best represented the lifestyle I had inherited from my ancestors, who had helped gain the freedom of democracy, and of building a civilisation that gave opportunity for all, in terms of their ability to work freely and not the forced leveling of the desirable but utopian socialism system that was starting to take over the world. I realised that my version of civilisation was under full attack by an enemy, and I was not going to wait for him to arrive on the shores of my own Country?
>Why not fight him wherever he was? With the strength of my youth, I opted for the fight, and I chose the sword.
>Our planet was in full Cold War confrontation mode involving the super powers of the day, the USA, China and the USSR. Their Hypocrisy and secret wars between each other had spread to dozens of apparently local wars that were taking place around the world and we had to watch while they meddled in other country's internal affairs.
>Utopianism, naive optimism, historical ignorance of other people, made the Kennedy administration stumble at every step in the name of self-determination, based on a concept of anti colonial paternalistic and inconsequential, forgetting that the U.S. were also the result of colonial domination.
>In search of African support in the Cold War, the most powerful nation on earth decided to join forces with allied countries encouraging barbaric terrorism against the white settler, especially in Angola, where the Portuguese colony lived in peace and progressed slowly but steady, with no other prey that characterised colonial nations.
Owen Baker
>The Portuguese have always lived with their backs turn to Europe, almost thrown overboard by the ubiquitous and unique neighbour, Spain. They were more African than European in their adventurous life, which led them to build an empire. A proud Prime Minister Salazar, with deep historical notion of Portugal role in the world, responded with force when confronted with the massacres of Holden Roberto's UPA in northern Angola, regaining the territory in a few months, a remarkable feat of arms, due to the distance of events and the few resources they had.
>In Africa, the West and the Soviets were faced with an apparent victory of the USSR, often facilitated by the mistaken interventions of Kennedy. Therefore the Portuguese colonial war spread on three fronts, involving Guinea, Angola and Mozambique. Western values were being threatened and so it was in this theater of war that I became involved, without thinking about the incongruities policies. I was willing to fight the real battle, to destroy the enemy where he was and to occupy his positions. I wanted to defend my country Brazil, by stopping him in Africa!
Noah Richardson
Big Boss?
Christopher Garcia
Too bad the commies won. We literally won the battle but lost the war. Our politicians are all cucks that dont serve the people and have sold us out.
Cameron Price
i'm not up to date on my metal gear
did big boss ever go to africa?
Carson King
Podemos has literally no chance. Not only they are right now in their own civil war, but they would help Cataluña gain independence, and thus, article 155 of our constitution would apply, which basically calls for the army to take down the rebel government (Cataluña) and the ones who allowed it, Podemos. Basically, commies can't win.
Also, the only thing Podemos had going for them was >LOOK AT US, WE ARE DIFFERENT FROM ALL THESE OLD GUYS IN SUITS but now everyone sees them as more of the same.
Connor Harris
In MGSV you fight both against Soviets in Afghanistan and against African PMCs in the border between Angola and Zaire.
Jace Richardson
kek, and best thing is Trump would not try to cuck the government into fucking commielunians
Justin Anderson
Oh i didn't know, my friends (who play it) didn't get to Africa yet, gon spoil it 4 them kek
Jordan Price
If you want to spoil them tell them you are not playing as the real Big Boss.
