There's no point in blaming the masses. You know how many progressive world leaders were killed within 5 to 10 years of Kennedy? The masses gave it their best shot. The american people ended the Vietnam War after about 7 years when it was obvious it was wrong. The government never forgave the masses through using their power to end the war. How many grassroots americam activists were murdered, put in prison, or had their minds poisoned by govt drug dealers? The government was afraid to do the draft after 11 September. Who knows? Maybe that's why they're so focused on drones because they've lost their ability to trust people to follow orders.
Absolutely. We didn't stop the war with protests, big as they were in those days when we still believed we could influence the government. No, what ended the Vietnam War was fragging--when officers couldn't turn their backs on their own men, they couldn't go on. So the Pentagon learned its lesson--no more drafted soldiers, rely on a combination of the poverty draft, proxy wars, and automated war. Not only did this eliminate the problem of fragging; once the numbers of American soldiers coming home from wars in boxes dwindled, and they made photographing the boxes illegal, opposition to the wars nearly disappeared. If they ever reinstate the draft, they'll quickly have big problems again--so they won't. Meanwhile they're moving to replace both soldiers and the domestic soldiers called police with robots so they can proceed no matter how obviously immoral the violence is.

They did however register all young men for the draft recently.
The Govt is using terrorists to avoid having to use the 'draft.'
