Well.... If we go to war with Iran and it stays Iran, we'll need a draft. We don't have a Military at this point that I believe is capable of sustaining more years of war in an entirely new place, cause and people who are all fresh and raring to start. It isn't that our military isn't capable as a force. They are. They just aren't supermen and 11 years is too much already.
If this war starts by any side and it doesn't just stay Iran? If Russia actually has nationals in Uniform fighting right out in the open? Well.... We won't need a draft. The war won't last long enough for a single class to make it out of boot camp alive. Russia and the United States may start with pot shots across the Caspian or Jet duels over Armenia or Georgia by it would escalate with blinding speed into missiles...then regional and finally intercontinental. We came moments from it in the 60's. Unbelievably, it looks like we might all be cursed to relive it. Pray the outcome is the same.
