Is A Conscripted Army Needed Given The Growing Security Threat From China, Russia, Iran & N Korea?

Redheads not warheads.
Blondes not bombs.
I'm talking 'bout Brunettes, not fighter jets.

Hahaha

 

[Tuearts right boot]

What threat?

The Russians are getting spanked and slaughtered by the heroes of Ukraine. The North Koreans have bred hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder, and judging by Iran's latest missile attack on Israel, i'm more frightened of a loud firework display.

War has changed. Conscripted Armies don't work, especially in the modern age. You've got people who don't want to fight, don't want to be there, don't have the heart and stomach to kill, let's make them soldiers! Rather than a conscripted army we need to increase weapons production. One operator in command of 10000 missiles/rockets is far more effective.

A 20 y/o could probably do more damage on his laptop while getting a blow job off his girlfriend nowadays.

What a quaint idea.

Yes and I'd start by conscripting the cunts that are getting out of prison early due to a lack of space.

The country can't afford a conscript Army. Taking ten's of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands out of the workplace and paying them from public funds is a non starter.

Much better to reverse the decline of the last 20 or so years with the regular army, and increase the numbers of reservists.

Absolutely we should have. I can picture the scenario now. North Korea put their entire army in ships, sail across the Pacific ocean, through the Panama canal, past the USA without being noticed, and start a land invasion of Cornwall, and our professional army, navy and airforce are caught with their trousers down, and within 3 months, we're all eating kimchi. It doesn't bear thinking about.
