Would Even This Cure the Neocons’ Bloodlust?

A vet under the nom de guerre “Alsatian” tells me,

I’ve long noted that those most enthused about starting wars (the so-called neo-cons) have never actually been in a war and have no offspring in any of the military services. We should have a new constitutional amendment stipulating that any member of the congress or the administration initiating foreign interventions should have all their male offspring drafted immediately to serve in the initial assault battalions. Hopefully, that would curb their enthusiasm for foreign adventures and bloodlettings.

Either that, or Congress would suddenly contain only childless criminals.
