>People that want war should be made to fight in it and defend our nation.

Sometime ago, the Iraqi Vice-President offered a solution to war, he offered a challenge to George Bush to fight man-to-man with Saddam Hussein. This solution seems to have been totally ignored by your government. They probably thought the odds weren't in their favour, pit a man who successfully avoided going to war with someone who is prepared to actually kill someone himself is a bit unfair.

I seem to remember reading just recently, only one of your congress men has a son in the military. Instead of calling up reservists, maybe conscription should be reintroduced, starting with the families of those members of government calling for war - I include my country in this too.
