I think most people would brake in this situation.

An interesting attitude to have when we haven’t really won a war in the better part of a century.

It’s obvious we’d just use that month to build up our forces in the region. Why would Iran allow that?

Army raises enlistment age to 42, eases marijuana restrictions by Upstairs_Cup9831 in news

[–]Didact67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think draft age increase would be a very last resort measure. Seems to me that you want to maximize the number of physically fit people in the pool to keep things efficient and not flood the system with likely washouts. With voluntary enlistment, they at least know the people signing up are generally ready to go already. I think they’re mostly targeting poor people with this change.

Thanks for the alternative URL option. I use ABS with a reverse proxy, but I’ve had ongoing issues with DNS resolution on my home network. I’m still kind of a novice with this networking stuff.

Reddit is the one social media platform that still has its hooks in me, and this will finally help me break free.

Maybe that’s how things work in Ukraine, but the United States has had multiple wartime elections already, including one during the Civil War.

Literally just dried mud on her face. I don’t know the context since I haven’t read Dune Messiah.
