The draft boards of 1941 to 1973 would improve today’s military but a draft board of today would only feed the current destruction.
Perhaps in a fight for our survival where we truly needed warriors or else we would cease to exist, then a modern draft board might return to the old standards.

Concluding Telegraph paragraph:
“History shows that we have blundered into disaster by not seeing it coming. In the 1930s, public opinion moved faster than the politicians in realizing the threat from the Nazis, but it was still desperately late in doing so. War is so terrible - modern war unimaginably so - that we cannot neglect any way of making it less likely. Retreating into neutrality does not seem an option in the modern world, as Sweden, long a proud neutral, has realized. We need politicians who are able to look without flinching at the dangers facing us, and explain to the country what needs to be done and what it will cost.”
The U.S. isn’t far behind.
“improve today’s military”
A standing army is extremely dangerous in the hands of evil-minded people. Team Donkey is riddled with evil people.
I hope the Republicans in Congress slash military funding to UK levels.

How about start by closing the UK’s remaining blast furnace capacity. / sarc
UK “industrial base” getting tuned up for war.

The Russians are now well aware of their limitations.
Strong National Defense is no longer needed when our enemy is only Communist China and Russia, got it.
We need a rapid change in our culture that becomes a thorn in the side of those who have spent decades defiling it in their quest to end America as it was. Rapid changes in culture are easiest to achieve using 'trendiness' as a tool. It has to become 'cool' to be an American again. It has to become 'cool' to have honor. It has to become 'cool' to be spiritual. It has to become 'cool' to be brave, hard-working, and sacrificing.
Conversely, it has to become boring, dull, unworldly, and passé to be a liberal in the current iteration.
The truth is that the current iteration of people who call themselves 'liberals' are all of those things. It's time to shine a bright light on this.

It would certainly force change on the State Department.
Foggy Bottom would have to change their current suicidal foreign policy.
Naturalization and the Military
What complete shite. Russia CANNOT FIGHT the West, it cannot even fight Ukraine! Russia is so weak and incompetent that to consider it a threat akin to the Nazis is a deliberate, premeditated lie.
Russia can’t even reach Britain with conventional forces so you know the whole article is deliberate propaganda. The notion of conscription is so fake it’s funny. There is no “citizen army” when the citizens are all nuclear-charred corpses!
With respect to the British people - any citizen army should be fighting the fascist British government and the migrant invading armies. You want a war, that is the war to fight.
National defence can’t be a priority when the nation’s own government is a larger threat than Russia and China combined. By far. Do you really want a strong U.S. military when it comes to a necessary civil war to restore American liberty?
Wouldn’t a small, weak American military make it much easier to whip? And keep America out of disastrous foreign wars?
When America is conquered it is over, we no longer exist, forever, it doesn’t mean we get a reset where conservative and liberal Americans restart the fight for American politics and culture.
Peas in our time.......
whirled peas.
The Chinese aren't.
I fail to see the contemporaneous threat that the Third Reich as in the 1930s. The CCP seems more interested in economic domination to achieve its ends.
