In Israel, you have to join the military after high school. Boys have to stay for about three years and girls for two. Since Israel is an extremely small country, if people weren't required to join the military, we would have a very small and weak army as well. I think its important to join the military in the case of Israel, to help defend our country and the people. My mom told me that we have a war there about once in ten years, which is a lot for only one country. I think that because of the conditions and location of Israel, its important to build a strong army, and we did. Though I heard that the food there is really bad and you hardly get any sleep, (having to wake up early every day and keep watch at night,) I don't really mind joining. Its kind of scary if you think about it, because if a war breaks out they gather the whole military up to fight. I don't like fighting or blood ( :-| ) so that's kind of a problem.. But I would join just to defend my country from invaders. Other people did it before me, and they survived. My cousin in there fighting now in the Gaza Strip, and she likes. In conclusion, I think that in the case of a small country like Israel, they made a right choice in making people join the military after high school.
