Yes the US has a more insidious "hidden" law that I'm amazed Trump has not used to his advantage. It's a felony for the younger illegal immigrants males who are eligible to not register for the draft (most visa and legally visa exempt tourists are exempt, but the exemption falls off if you fall out of status). Almost none of them do, meaning almost all undocumented military-age-males are actively committing a serious crime.

Why aren't refugees/immigrants conscripted over citizens?

Dunno how it is in Germany but quite a few of my non white friends wound up in the Canadian Army.

I don't know why immigration is brought up in this conversation at all.
