Our comrades in Socialist Revolution write about changes in the requirements for military service in Denmark, and warn of preparations for interimperialist attack war.

They write about the Danish Armed Forces' provision to remove the minimum requirement requirement (155cm) and requirements for BMI. The changes in the requirements were justified by the fact that up to 50 per cent of those who attend session are rejected. The changes come in addition to an initiative to double the number of conscripts by including women. Danish imperialism, through bourgeois media, will present it as a feminist initiative, and push it through as a grip on equality. Both the removal of requirements for military service and inclusion of women in the military is the attempt of Danish imperialism to prepare for new imperialist conflicts and attack wars that they will participate in as part of NATO.

It is also easy to see similar measures in Norway, where bourgeois media and a Breit range of bourgeois parties are trying to introduce military service for all young people who leave high school. Again, the reasons for this are that "we must increase readiness" and that we are in "demanding times". As in Denmark, many of the bourgeois parties agree with the proposal, from Red to the Progress Party. This, in addition to the military exercise "Cold Response", and new agreements on new American bases in Norway show how willing the imperialists are to recruit more people to waste in interimperialist attack wars, in service of bourgeoisie and Yankee emperialism.
