Coincidence, I got my draft papers today aswell. I'm finnish.

newsflash: the middle east is full of camel f*cking terrorists, dumb*ss
Compulsory military service is so outrageously backwards it's not even funny. Nobody should be forced into military service for any reason, you should always have a choice.
Don't go shootin up no flotillas ok?

[QUOTE=BurnEmDown;28508202]Hey dude long time no see.[/QUOTE] It has been a rather long time.
Be a conscientious objector.
How's the pay? Cause if they pay you a reasonable amount, that's like leaving school and being definatly given a job in which you get decent meals, put through a good fitness regieme and get paid for it all the time. Oh, and get to play with deadly weapons
[QUOTE=Big Dumb American;28508079]Compulsory military service is so outrageously backwards it's not even funny. Nobody should be forced into military service for any reason, you should always have a choice.[/QUOTE] Yeah, everyone should be a big, dumb American instead.
Shitty pay. Unless you become an officer.

Cause if they pay you a reasonable amount, that's like leaving school and being definatly given a job in which you get decent meals, put through a good fitness regieme and get paid for it all the time. Oh, and get to play with deadly weapons[/QUOTE] The pay isn't that good, it's 750 NIS per month (compared to the Israeli minimum wage of ~3,500 NIS per month), but you don't pay for your meals and once you are released they pay quite a lot for your university entrance. Also, it's obviously going to be much harder than having a job, working 8 hours a day for 5 days a week, but you also get something out of it, it builds your character, puts you in shape, you learn Krav Maga and how to fire weapons and stuff, so overall it's not like you're a slave or something. Edit: oh and jobniks (soldiers who don't take part in any combat activity - desk guys, etc) usually get 350 NIS per month, that sucks much more because you basically have a job with the most shittiest pay ever and you gain nothing from it.
I'm getting drafted soon too, but I live in East Asia instead. For me, its only 2 years and no females. :( (it fucking sucks, I'm getting pulled out from my University education to be enlisted)
To be honest, I think military service being compulsory for a couple of years is a good way for countries with the money for forces of this type to improve conditions. Imagine if you knew that almost every adult from your country had been through military discipline, the fear of their first patrol in enemy territory, the unfairness when the sergeant yells at you for something you didn't do. I think compulsory service would do me the world of good - it would put me in good shape, bring back my confidence and teach me new life skills at the same time. I'm too much of a pussy to volunteer, but I think it would improve many people's attitudes and work ethic. OP, don't worry. I've known people from Sweden and Switzerland who've done their compulsory service. They have a blast (sometimes literally) and treat it as a life experience. I think you're (in some ways) lucky to be given [forced into] this opportunity.
The Israeli Military is a fun one to be a part of though, you guys have some of the best tanks and troop carriers around, not to mention good gear, training, and hot women. All military service is rough, but you may as well enjoy it instead of loathing it.
Fuck that, I would emigrate!
[QUOTE=Big Dumb American;28508079]Compulsory military service is so outrageously backwards it's not even funny. Nobody should be forced into military service for any reason, you should always have a choice.[/QUOTE] For large, fairly stable countries such as the USA, Compulsory service is indeed backwards. However, for a country such Israel, which has been at risk of being wiped off the map since day one, maintaining the military is vital to it's existence.
I came here hoping in [img]http://www.hockeynewsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/806e3312961-logo.png-150x138.png[/img] But whatever.. I hope you actually enjoy your service. Seems like a pretty handy experience actually, makes you a better man I bet.
Defect and become a badass outlaw, recruit people to your own private army and overthrow the government. That would be so cool.

All conscription is a really stupid idea but best of luck OP
