Does Iraq have a draft?

Does Iraq have a mandatory Draft? Where will the 150,000 Iraqis to replace the USA troops come from? Since 450,000 to 635,000 Iraqis civilians are dead and over 400,000 have left Iraq, where will they come from? Iraq currently has a army of about 300,000 troops. How will they increase that number to the 450,000 needed? How long will this take? At 20,000 per month it would take over 7 months. That's 5000 per week. Iraq is in civil war now. Many troops are involved in training Iraqis to be there own police force. Should we now ask the UN for 150,000 peace keeping forces? Like we did in Lebanon in order to withdraw Israeli troops?

NO one in Washington uses the word "occupation" no one in Washington uses the word "draft" in Iraq.
If Iraq is a Democracy should they now pass a draft to provide security? Democrat Carl Levin at least has courage, he called for phased withdrawal in 4 to 6 months.

We have had democratic elections in Iraq, according to Bush. Many times Bush has repeated this as one of the "major accomplishments" of his plan for Iraq. How many that voted for the Shiite majority government of President Al-Maliki's were terrorist when they voted and still are terrorist? No one really knows.
