Do you really have such ****ing *******s in USA ? :-(


You guys just ended the draft in 2001, right? We actually did it in
1972.


You are right. But the following remember me 1916 :

"There's not an American ... that doesn't understand what we are engaged
in today and what the prospects are for the future."

"Why shouldn't we ask all of our citizens to bear some responsibility and
pay some price?"



Because a country that can't raise a volunteer Army to defend itself, isn't
worth defending.


Note that in this particular case USA don't defending but attacking.
It's a big, big, big difference, you know.




NB : note that it is perhaps a kind of irony that I haven't understood.
