How many would answer the call for a US draft?

If America had actually been attacked by a country with a sizable army like China, then I might agree that a draft could be an option. But Iran? Come on. The only reason we WOULD need a draft to deal with Iran is because we have squandered our military resources in Iraq.

 

Vietnam is a tiny country with a weak army and yet the United States could not handle it without a draft ... Whether a draft is necessary or not would really depend on how many nations would use a war in Iran as a proxy to fight the United States.

Name one that would even consider it that has much of a military?  I doubt Russia would for a country it has such a minor interest in.

 

You don't (really) need much of an army, and the soldiers/equpment that is given as aid doesn't have to come directly from a government, in order to (greatly) increase the difficulty of a war against a country like Iran ... A 15 year old from Pakistan who is promised $10,000 (from Saudi Arabia) for his family if he dies and is armed with a $25 AK47 that is manufactured in China is still very deadly.
