Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I think they should raise the upper and the lower limit. Let’s send 55 to 85 year olds. Maybe that way it will end sooner.
We wouldn't have to provide them social security or Medicare
Send the politicians first. World peace achieved in 1 day.
That should be a global policy. These old fucks can start fighting their own wars for once in history
hey thats RUSSIAS policy now.
And Trump will be following Russians lead.
We lost 58,000 in Vietnam in over 10 years, and less than 5000 in Afghanistan in 20 years. Putin has lost 1.2 million in 4 years.
Trump is going to fight a war like Putin, because he will see those deaths as a score, and the more people that sacrifice their lives for him, the more important he is in history. People talk about Hitler and Stalin because of how many people they killed, so if he wants to be remembered for all time, he has to get real dictator numbers for his war.
BTW, when it becomes clear that he doesn't know what he's doing, and he is just sending American soldiers to die in an endless meat-grinder war, enlistments will end. Then he's going to call for a draft, and literally enslave young American men to die for him.
Running up the war dead because he thinks it makes him look more powerful is typical Trump logic.
Fascism is but a cult of death.

It's the old propaganda strategy of making war, and dying in war, GLORIOUS and ROMANTIC.
No, it's just stupid, ESPECIALLY this type of war. This isn't even being done for economic opportunity, which is evil, but at least understandable from a Capitalistic perspective, but this kind of war makes no sense. There is literally no reason or advantage to it. I think it was supposed to make Trump look tough or something, but it's only made him look stupider - even to his own followers.
And we haven't forgotten the Epstein Files, we've just added this war to the list of his atrocities to attach to his name for all history.
