Would you support a draft in a war effort against Iran?

I do not support another war when we're already dealing with one. The last thing we need is to get dragged in two wars again.

So for now, no drafts. Ask me in ten years after the Afghanistan War ends and my answer will be different.

No to Obama beer as well. Just not interested in beer.

 

I voted, “No. I would not support a draft. No to Obama Beer.”

I do not drink beer, under no circumstance would ever support conscription, and at this time do not think it would be at all appropriate for the United States to initiate an armed conflict against Iran or otherwise go to war with them over minor provocations or even if they were to successfully develop, construct, and test nuclear weapons.

 

I'm so sorry!

 

Nobody has the right to force me to suffer and potential die. No one, man or government.

And I have no issue with Iran. Why would I want to fight them anyway?

 

Freedom isn't free. It is in Canada, but not here.

 

The big question would we have to draft if we invade Iran, and that sparks a proper war. We haven't fought a proper war in a long time against a real determined enemy the Iranians have some issues but they have so far ALWAYS united when they were attacked and the can and will fight. If they unleash their terrorist allies, wage a determined insurgency under uniform not terrorist actual POW's we will be obligated to give Geneva Convention rights to and their government goes into exile say into China this could get very vicious quickly.

A relative in the military said ,as a seasoned nco, he would see the need for over 400,000 troops primary combat and support just to hold the nation and that could go higher since if they fight and broaden this into say Iraq we could be looking at a full occupation of all major assets, that could not be done halfway.

 

No, I would not support a draft, having been in before and after the draft, I know from experience that draftees downgrade the quality of our military. Depends how good the beer tastes.

 

And the US has zero threats. Please don't tell me you think Iran is a threat.

 

Good luck with getting the youth to go along with a draft. They're more privy to the truth than prior generations, their is no way in hell they could pull that off. Their would be insane riots and revolution everywhere. And rightfully so.

If you establishment warmongers want to fight evil wars against a 3rd rate military, go do it yourself. Don't except some 18-29 year old to die for some totally avoidable and pointless bull(*)(*)(*)(*) war against a country that is literally zero threat to us.

 

I joined during Vietnam (11B), I see you had to be forced, and on top of that you want to force those you hate to serve, why is it the word HYPOCRITE comes to mind. The draft, which I am against unless it were a world war, should have no loopholes, meaning rich kids would be drafted along with the poor, as it sould be.

 

Draft you people, yes.

Draft ME, NO.


This country hasn't done enough for me yet to go and fight for it. and I'm not even on Welfare.

 

Why don't we just have an non internationalist FP, and in the event that somebody is dumb enough to screw with us, we bomb them to kingdom come?

That way, we don't have to worry about a draft, or a world war. Because if WW3 happens, you can bet your ass that they catalyst will be our unnecessary involvement in the ME.

And if troops to need to be on the ground, the people who made the mess should fight, the 40+ year olds. Why should some 18-25 year old kid have to die for something he didn't start?

 

I would support an all out draft of any Congressional personell who vote for a war against Iran or anyone else along with all members of their families over the age of 17...Also all of Romney's children or Obamas if he supports the war....Next would be the families of rich war profiteers who suck off the governmet teat for huge contracts and their counterparts in the oil business who always clean up after wars in oil rich countries.....Lastly I would make sure that all of the loudmouthed war cheerleaders on AM radio along with their families like Limbaugh, Hannity, Medved, Prager were right there on the front lines leading their minions into battle...I say draft 'em all!!

 

Each Nation stands on its own merits and yes we could bomb almost anyone into the stoneage. BUT, would it prevent war or even world war, no. Could the ME be the cause of WWIII, sure, the Chinese and Russians are allies with some of those that hate us, hence we should be in the right if we were to attack anyone, a third world war would be the end on the world as we know it and do not assume you will be here when it is done. Sorry, I already fought my war as did my father and after me my son did his duty, we are a family that serves and hence are more cautious than some of the chickenhawks that are so quick to send our fellow citizens in harms way without having to pay the price.

 

Every conflict we've had after WW2 has been unnecessary. If we had a proper non internationalist foreign policy, those conflicts would have been avoided.

Possibly, but probably not. The USSSR and China were involving themselves in the internal affairs of other nations and had we not stood up to them when we did we would have had to do so at a later date, you do not honestly believe that if we stay out of world affairs that our enemies would learn to love us and leave us alone do ya? Such thinking is one of the main reasons I could not back Ron Paul, his isolationist thinking would do more harm than good. I am all for keeping our influence to a minimum and I am against war when it is not warranted, but I am also not a pacifist and believe good men have to stand up to evil when it is needed.

 

What do you mean "The Pentagon want me to ask you?"

 

Good God...you have problems.

 

If Obama was to create a beer like Sam Adams, he would call it Kenyan Stout
