Army Enlistment, for me of course.

I will most likely be enlisted on the 14th of July so if I won't post here in this thread that it has been postponed, I would like to be removed from the games, since I will have a period of 4 weeks in which I won't be even able to come home


tl;dr: Don't remove me just yet, if I don't post here that the date has been postponed from the 14th of July remove me.

Good for you to serve! Make your countrymen proud, Shadow!

You obviously don't understand WHY I am being enlisted. It's forced enlistment here in Israel.

If I had the choice to not enlist, I will not enlist. But sadly, that is punishable by 10 years in jail, and I am not fit for combat so I prefer wasting 3 years of my life behind a desk with a computer in front of me than 10 years in military jail (shittiest type of jail).

Is that standard in Israel or are there certain conditions at the moment requiring this? I haven't kept up on international news recently.

But even the lousiest desk job can make an important difference

Well, good luck. Sucks to be you though. =P

Sorry to hear that, Shadow. I likewise didn't know it was forced enlistment. I'm just accustomed to things over hear here so it didn't occur to me that yours wasn't voluntary. The US armed forces are all-volunteer. We haven't had a forced enlistment since WWII.

Its time like these when I'm happy Australia is a democracy.

Yes, it's standard in Israel. Everyone enlists. And who said I'm going for a lousy desk job?

I hate to be me sometimes too

Harhar, there's a high chance that the US will send troops to assist us if Syria attacks us, which they probably will when they realize the world stopped believing their lies.

If Australia shared borders with countries who's main religion sole purpose is to annihilate other religions, believe me they will have forced enlistment too.
Or if they had nay borders with other countries at all lol.


P.s - Israel is a democratic country.
P.s2 - answered in order of people who posted after my previous post.

Yeah, they don't call us the lucky country for no reason.

Good luck

Oddly, Switzerland has national service too, for 2 years... and everyone must keep a gun in their home. Strange behaviour for the most neutral country in the world.

Wow, seriously? The politician a-holes in the US are trying to TAKE the guns from our homes, lol.

3 days left

I am going to stay awake for 3 days straight (starting the 2nd day now) to save up as much relaxation as I can, because the PC is my only escape from my reality. (Yes, I am addicted)

Bless you, Shadow.
