I don't think there will be a draft. We all have to remember that there are about 5 million reserve troops that will go into battle before people even think about a draft.

Now on the subject of the actual war (if there is any at all), I personally wouldn't serve even if drafted, and I'd find some way to dodge it (I hear Canada is nice this time of year). It's not that I'm against fighting for what I believe in, it's that I'm not too big on this cause. I personally feel we shouldn't even be in the middle east. We should pull out and let the British do all the work. They'd probably do a better job.

Finally, to quote Robet Heinlein "Violence has solved everything throughout history." IMO, it's animal nature to violently settle our disputes, and it's not going to change. Heinlein was disputing the quote "Violence doesn't solve anything". The fact is, fighting is never going to stop. War has always solved problems. Chances are, Baghdad (sp?) will recieve the bombing of a lifetime. It's not right, it's not wrong, it's just nature.
