YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCol. William Astore (Ret.), author of the article "Who's Military is it Anyway" at TomDispatch.com, discusses the distinction between an all-volunteer and an all-recruited military, the increasing similarities between the U.S. military and the French foreign legion, the misguided push to re-institute the draft as an antiwar measure and how the characterizations of military deployments as "long wars" become self-fulfilling prophesies.
