Should we continue with compulsory National Guard service?

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Don't forget the reserves. We can easily have more than 150.000 soldiers. It is all about the will to fight. Take the Taliban for example. USSR tried to beat them and they lost. Now Americans try to beat them and they are having difficulty. They are crazy fanatics but I think we can take some lessons from them!

The Taliban are trained to kill without compassion. They are ruthless and when one dies another replaces him. I do not think the NG and the reserves come anywhere close. If you need training, Greek intructors and what's in place at the moment will not help in any conflict.
