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
