“but the Israelis appear to handle them OK so lets take a page out of their book.”
You need to be aware Israel stopped putting women in line units, in combat roles. All the socio-physical arguments we put forth the Israeli’s dealt with them and now assign females to support roles. Of course, they also discovered more soldiers were hurt or died when sub-human muslims discovered the unit they are facing has Jewish FEMALES in it. Argh. . . to be captured by a Jewish female would be a monumental insult so they fought on, harder, to avoid being captured by a Jewish female.
“You need to be aware Israel stopped putting women in line units, in combat roles”
An Israeli colonel told me some decades ago that the main reasons they stopped were that they could get women to start killing, but they couldn’t get them to stop. Instead of taking prisoners, they would kill the enemy to the last one.
As Hulka noted, that discourages surrender.
The other reason was that you can’t stop men from acting to protect women, even at the cost of the mission.
