Not to take away from the subject of drafting women, but back to jezebell's point. Arguing over whether Israel belongs to Palestine or RJfAtW (Random Jews from Around the World) is a pointless argument, and it comes down to you think one way or the other. Personally, I think the country belongs to Palestine, regardless of any UN agreement or US/Jewish decision.
When it comes to the draft, I personally oppose it since it includes women. I don't consider myself a sexist, but I do think the sexes differ in many fundamental ways. I'm not a Phyllis Schlafly, but the sexes ARE different, women are better at some things and men are better at others. When it comes to women in the military, maybe I'm conservative when it comes to this issue, but I disagree.
However, when it comes to the war in Iraq, I have to completely agree with Jezebell. It is becoming harder and harder to justify the war in Iraq, simply because all of the reasons that we (the public) were given by Fox News and MSNBC news and CNN have fallen apart. From Colin Powel's anthrax speech in front of the UN to the "transfer of power" in 4 days, the Iraq war simply isn't justified.
When it comes down to it, what country fulfill's Bush's "requirements" for invasion?
Can you guess what country I'm thinking of.....
This country has a well documented nuclear program.
This country has never signed a nuclear proliferation treaty.
This country terrorizes its own citizens.
This country herds people into refugee camps.
This country tears down people's homes in order to "root out terror"
This country commits terrorist acts against civilians.
This country is building a wall to completely seal itself off from civiilians attempting to return to their homes.
What country is it? Iraq?
Fuck no, its Israel.
Just my 2 cents
