All Women should stand together with women in war zones.



“Women everywhere should stand together with women in war zones.”

“Ukraine is being urged to lower the conscript age to 17 for kids who turn 18 in the same year. That age now is 25. Most Ukraine troops are dead. More are needed. Ukraine must force kids into the military to fight and die for America’s pursuit of killing Russians and others of the West’s interests. ‘Please, start recruiting teenagers’ says Biden. Book them at 17. Train them. Send them out with a gun on their birthday,” accuses Alona Adamovich, regional director for The RINJ Foundation, a global women’s rights and safety Civil Society Organization (CSO).

“Putin legacy? The RINJ Women birthing clinics in Mariupol and across all of Ukraine’s and the eastern Russian republics’ basements, just like those near the bomb craters of Idlib, & Dier Ezzor, Syria, it’s midwifery by lamp light and candles,” says Alona Adamovich, a RINJ director and NGO organizer across Ukraine and the eastern republics of the Russian Federation.

“What has really happened is that since 2013, The RINJ Foundation at my request and leadership in the region has been supporting the women who became victims of NATO and Azov Nazi brigade members who killed thousands of people and raped a higher number of women and girls, encouraged by their government in Kiev.

RINJ Women have trained hundreds of women as midwives. They qualified for the training as nurses, 1st year nursing students, as well as anyone who took a preliminary course that would normally be given as an upgrade emergency response certification for nurses. All midwives work under the direct supervision of an on-call registered nurse or higher. But that is not what I want to explain.

In the conduct of its mandate RINJ Nurses Without Borders learned the best way to achieve the unit’s objectives is to offer OB/GYN care to the community served by RSAC mobile or fixed units and to establish long-term relationships with female and child clients for the purpose of establishing and understanding in absolute privacy the complete range of needs and the timing of needs by the client/patient. Within some cultures this is the necessary fit. All clinics are exclusively women-run and operated. Any patient seen at our doorstep can be assumed to be a general health care patient and not a rape survivor. RINJ Women are focussed on women and children, not just rape survivors but gained its reputation from combatting gender-based-violence.”  RSAC-Community-Health-Team-Nursing-Standards-of-Practice

“During the worst of times, we delivered a lot of babies and met many women. We supported them in the early months with their babies and provided goods and services, lots of free supplies that our sponsors donated, and the family’s connected midwife would deliver some gifts in person after the first month to do a checkup and round the babies up on her list to come and have vaccinations. We now do vaccinations based on the standards set by the ministries of health in both countries and each republic.

“Well, what has been happening is that many women will not agree to have their next baby with anyone else but with our/their midwife. Many even come back from Poland or other parts of Europe to be with their midwife and have their baby in a known, safe environment even though it is in a horrific war zone.

“The truth is that nobody is really taking good care of the millions of women who have fled Ukraine and Russia for the war duration. I am not saying that is normal for women to return to a war to have their baby, but it happens. For sure there is a loyalty and security bond. Many midwives in Ukraine and in the Russian eastern republics go on to become registered nurses and they usually keep their patients.

“Why? Because our belief is that women in war zones must stand together. These women former-midwives now nurses do more like a public health nurse would do, helping families schedule their vaccination schedules and provide general health care assistance. Some of them also work for the public health infrastructure.

“During the SARS2 pandemic, our people saved a lot of lives and RINJ Women organization sent us a lot of teachers, helpers and material supplies. I am so proud of what we accomplished in the pandemic but still, we lost many friends, so it is a mixed emotion,” explained Alona.

“That is why I am saying it is somebody’s legacy because it is a good thing, and it will be a change for many oblasts and republics like what has happened in many Muslim communities in the Middle East and Africa where some communities say only a woman practitioner should be delivering babies. I know that is an old custom, but some countries have old laws, old beliefs, older cutoms,” Ms. Adamovich added. “All Women should stand together with women in war zones.”

“Meanwhile Ukraine recruiters are being told by senior officers that they must generate more recruits or be sent to the front lines. There they will die for sure. Our males are dwindling. Many nurses say they will never find a husband, now,” Alona expressed her chagrin.

“That will give Genocide Joe Biden more boasting rights about how he triumphed in Ukraine, something he likes to do, right? That jerk has been messing up Ukraine since 2008. He is an ???????,” noted NP Alona Adamovich.


Feminine Perspective on Men’s Wars:

“As you look at the battlefront and the needs, the progress that the Russians have made, particularly in the east, the physics of it, the pure math of it is you need bodies,” said an official in the White House to CNN.  “You need manpower. You need soldiers.”

“Whatever…  but we don’t need World War three,” said RINJ Foundation security director Dale Carter (not to be confused with Lynda Carter/Wonder Woman but thought of as leading the new ‘Wonder Women’ during many of her extraordinary activities.


“This government woman stands out to me. I see her as looking like and being Wonder Woman. All women must stand together with the women in war zones. I know this woman does,” said Alona Adamovich as we finished our interview.
