Israel is a militarised state, they live in a constant state of war and draft all their men and women in the military. It could be argued that jewish people have always lived in this state of anxiety, no matter where they live, they can't just be happy. They have to constantly cause trouble for everyone around them and themselves.

That being said, women should not be permitted to do any jobs where they fail to meet the physical criteria and the standards should never be lowered for equality reasons.
