Please, please, please, please stop posting about it already! Take a minute to check the archives of any comm you're posting it in to MAKE SURE it hasn't been there already. Then you won't feel silly uninformed when the nature of the warning is pointed out to you.
Edit: I just realized that THIS version of the letter says that the draft will be imposed on "boys and girls" aged 18-26. Listen VERY CLOSELY. People that age are adults. They're not boys. They're not girls. They're men and women. You might, might say that an 18 or 19 or even 20-year-old person is still, in some way, like a child (a boy or a girl), but can you honestly say that about somebody who is 26? Stupid emotive techniques.
