You really should know the answer to your question. The point of conscription under the subject circumstances is not to make them a wonderful and driven soldier, it's in order to establish and elevate a base line capacity for soldiering and fighting.
The idea is not the same as a volunteer force where you are professionally training someone into a member of the military, you are simply trying to establish a baseline in case a draft for defensive self-preservation is necessary one day. You sure as hell don't want to be caught off guard with a weak, limp wristed, Liberal, blue haired, self-loathing populace that has not even the most basic comprehension for what provides them the privileged and comfortable life they freeload off.
Conscription is simply a way to bolster a country's means for self-defense in circumstances of elevated risk, without having to actually create an adequate professional force. Conscription is absolutely productive in the face of what is perceived as escalating military risks.
You are right though, many, if not most European, even eastern European societies, are so atrophied and have become so weak willed and limp wristed for a number of reasons including the fact that they have so long totally and utterly relied on the USA providing a defensive shield that they have totally forgotten and become delusional and rather psychotic even, about the need for self-defense and even just as normally instinctual of things as self-preservation. Just look to what Europe is doing (It is sad to have to point this out, but extremely important to differentiate between, e.g., arabs and muslims ... people of a region and an ideology, just like there is/was a difference between Germans and Nazis.) by letting the ideology of islam invade their lands and infiltrate their societies and corrupt their governments to institute their ideology. And that's beyond the whole question of the number of people that the elite is thrusting upon its populace against every single basic and fundamental concept and notion of democracy and self-determination and liberty.
Conflict and war is coming. It is in the air, even if it does not happen now or the next year. There are certain forces that are relentlessly pushing towards conflict and strife and friction through "diversity", which will, unavoidably and inevitably lead to some sort of detrimental condition. And it is not the ones one would think, it is the equivalent of spoiled brats with no grasp on reality from having lived in a bubble of comfort and who take everything they are given without having earned it for granted that are ever creating the conditions that will result in failure or collapse of the system. Just like the rise of the Nazis in the 1920s was just the symptom and their gaining power the cancer that ultimately led to organ failure; the misaligned and rotten elite of effete impudent snobs are the cause of the conditions that lead to the cancer that caused the symptoms.
