Forced extensions are not a draft - they have been part of the standard enlistment contract/obligation for most military forces in what used to be called the free world for years upon years.

Unvoluntary [sic] recalls are not a draft either. ANY military obligation incurred, male or female, officer or enlisted, is for SIX years. A certain number of those years are to be served on active duty, with the rest in inactive reserve status.

Both of these facts are explained pretty clearly by the sales force (recruiters) to the buyers (raw meat, er, recruits). However, like any sales situation, a few organizations doing the sales do not operate completely above board. There are also a great number of buyers who develop retroactive selective hearing when the product (military service) doesn't live up to their expectations.

The minute somebody proposes MANDATORY national service of some sort for EVERY last cocksucker - male or female, black white brown yellow red orange purple, gay or straight or metro, born with a plastic spoon in their mouth or a silver spoon up their ass - I'd be all for it.

The requirements of today's military cannot be met by conscription.
