The U.S. government has destroyed any credibility it ever had to compel its citizens to serve in the military.

This idea that the Federal government could draft people to fight military campaigns to prop up Islamic governments in Third World sh!t holes is pathetic.

The best chance to stop our foreign military follies is a Draft. Until everyone has some skin in the game, the 99% who don’t serve just don’t care.

Drafting people to prop up Islamic governments in the Middle East is bad, and should not be excused by conflating it with the ideal of defending family / home / country, which is good.
