    This, exactly. I happy a vet like you is telling it how it is. And I'm sorry they duped a good, honest, well intentioned man as yourself, and many others like you.

    I agree with your points about legislators irresponsibly engaging in unjustifiable wars. They should have to personally suffer consequences for such actions. But that we should re-instate a draft just doesn't follow at all. From what I understand 70% of the population does not support most of the recent wars in which the US government has involved us, which just goes to show that most people in the U.S. support a government that defies the will of most of its citizens. This is cognitive dissonance. Yes, if you support a war you should probably fight in it. But to punish most Americans for suffering from a mild mental disorder, by forcing them to fight in a war they don't support, is just another evil.

    Re instating the draft doesn't mean you have to go to war.We had the selective service system before Viet Nam and after WW2...What it does is give military training and discipline to people that need it.So,if we do come into a war,we have ready trained troops.

    What the hell are you talking about? The only whore is the US soldiers being used as a meercenary force against those that cannot defend themselves!

    They are being subjugated...... I'm only telling the truth your media restricts from your view! Like secret prison, torture chambers, you know all those good things that were decried when Hitler was in power...that your government is now implementing on your behalf!

    Look to the whore you have....AIPAC!

    Shall I mention the harlots.....sorry senators who do they're bidding...a Judas, owned elected and bought each and every one earning the silver for selling you out and every other US national!
    Aye cowards face nothing ...... like your good self.....keep your nose in the sand!

    Wars of genocide and forced relocation of the survivors to permanent camps. Granted, some of those native Americans could be fierce warriors, just ask Kit Carson, but there were plenty of massacres of innocent natives that could hardly be considered valorous acts. I'm sure that your grandfather was not a coward, nor was mine, who fought in the civil war, but it's not as if either was protecting freedom. Genocide and preventing people from exercising their right to leave an association are hardly exemplary candidates for reinstuting the draft, yet, that is what the draft is for - to force people to serve the state in its wars for resources and conquest.

    Native Americans were weak and for the taking.....Conquest is natural order,and always will be...survival of the fittest....the draft is to keep a ready reserve army incase of an attack...and to institute discipline in our young people which a parent can't seem to do...

    Such pride displayed here... quite disquieting.

    So you justify any invasion based on "survival of the fittest?"

    At least show SOME humility.

    Your point is very well made, and I agree 100%%%%. But the powers that be dont care about the working class and underclass young men and women that make up about 95% of todays soldiers.

    Mmmm.... I thought I'd give the loittle credence as you said your ancesters came from the Highlander.... then I look at your avatar and saw a chimp with a monkey!!
    I rest my case.

    You seem to banter about the word "coward"! A coward is someone that cannot face something, like yourself, you cannot face the deceit and lies your being reinforced daily is just that....Genocide is being perpetrated by your soldiers at the behest senators owned and bought for by a foreign government, through the offices of AIPAC!
    Secret prisons, assassination squads, torture chambers, genocide....it all the work of your soldiers sailors and airmen. Fodder for AIPAC!

    Hey stupid...waken up and smell the coffee!
    Face the music!

    Regards
    And my comisserations

    Eugenics and ownership of the individual by the state are the hallmarks of the progressive ideology. Thanks for making that so clear.

    Sure, reinstate the draft. Another nail in the US's coffin, I'd wager.

    Only the "Draft" can we sustain the nation,we need obligated young men,not fat ass career soldiers....Our reserves are weak at best....Help return a needed entity that belongs to true Americans that want to serve. All you losers,hide behind your bongs and waste your lives,real Americans will take your place..
