Who said anything about unpaid? Give them 50% off of college tuition. Give back to them for giving to their country. Also it would help our crumbling infrastructure. Have them fill potholes, or repave streets. Help farmers tend to their crops, or help fix up low-income housing.
Anyhow, we already have the selective service so I dont know what you are so butthurt over.
And not trying to derail the thread, I wouldnt call Israel an apartheid state. It definitely has racist aspects of it, but I wouldnt put it at the apartheid level. At least not until they ban arabs from government. And besides, the draft in Israel is done out of necessity. If they had a "professional" army then it would be a tiny force and not at all sufficient for their security needs.
