White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has been accused of not ruling out the US boots on the ground in Iran option in her latest interview with Fox News. This has riled up the anti-war section of the GOP like former Georgia Republican Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, who said the US should send bloodthirsty Republicans like Laura Loomer and Lindsey Graham to the war, and the the option of a military draft should not be on the table either.
A military draft (conscription) means the government requires people, usually young men, to join the armed forces, even if they did not volunteer. The US last used a draft during the Vietnam War, and it ended in 1973. A draft would only happen if Congress passes a law and the president approves it.
