If there were to be multiple options offered, we could take volunteers first and then use a draft system to fill up the rest of the spots. We could give the option to start as early as 16, but mandatory at 18. Probably would have to get ride of Cadet summer training. And then there is the...

I think at the present time, the thing that no one wants to admit, is that there isn't a viable solution to this conflict. The West Bank is culturally significant to both sides. In sure Israel would love to disengage from the Gaza Strip if they could do it without a potential repeat of October...

Where did the ones that Cadets received come from?
