Except all Israelis have to serve in the IDF or they face jail time. The only Jews in Israel that don't have to serve are the ultra orthodox Jews who are the ones that are the most devout Zionists. The situation over there is extraordinarily fucked.

They have their mandatory military service but as far as I know there's no ~~conscription~~ draft at the moment (but I might be mistaken on that).

Mandatory military service = Conscription

~~No, one is required service for a set amount of time no matter if the country is at peace or at war, the other is when people that aren't in service get called to take part in a war effort.~~

Turns out in English I should have used "draft" instead

Yeah I know the word exists in both French and English and I expected it to have the same meaning, in French if you're talking about a conscription people would definitely know you're talking about war time.
