DWW: The events of the last week have brought the DRAFT one step closer!
As you all know, based on the official SSS 2004 DRAFT ACTIVATION PLAN, I am predicting the first DRAFT LOTTERY will be held on June 15, 2005 (http://www.sss.gov/perfplan_fy2004.html).

THis reality came one step closer this last week with the Shia and Sunni uprisings, the breaking of the rotation promise to 20,000 crack troops and the failure of the new mercenary and Iraqi forces to do anything but cut and run when the bullets started flying.

All in the biz know you need a 10 to 20 to 1 advantage in fighting guerilla forces, especially in urban settings. If there are 30,000 to 40,000 fighting us right now ( a very low estimate), we would need at least 400,000 troops to really defeat them.

Bush is trying to bandaid the need for conscription for his mistake until after the election with mercenaries and inadequate extended deployments.

Only the election of Kerry can stop this AND WE HAVE TO GET THE WORD OUT TO THE YOUNG PEOPLE. KERRY WILL BRING IN INTERNATIONAL CONTROL AND TROOPS IMMEDIATELY AND WILL ALSO BUCK UP THE TROOPS SO THEY RE-ENLIST.

A VOTE FOR NADER OR BUSH IS A VOTE TO DRAFT YOURSELF!

BUSH '04 = DRAFT '05
