safe from the draft?

[dethfire]

If I'm currently at college aren't I safe from any draft for the rest of the semester?

[blike]

Haha, yea. But don't worry, I don't think the US has any plans to reinstate the draft any time soon, even though war is likely.

I don't think war is that likely. Saddam Hussein is a bit clever for that I feel, since the US Govt. has made it apparent that it is looking for an excuse to kill him, which wasn't a particularly bright move strategically, as it means that if he is about to be killed, he might just do something realy nuts like inflame the whole of the middle east by launching missiles at Israel..... at least that's what I'd do if I were in his position. It's been quite fascinating though, looking at thins whole conflict between the US/West and the middle east from the perspective of Sun Tsu

We don't need to draft cannon fodder anymore. The military needs skills and degrees. There should be enough labor support available and the troops now are being trained with this new concept of casualties are unacceptable so unless your a specialist, the military probably won't need you.

Just aman
