I stand corrected. I guess it depends how fundimentalist you see these
nations, I haven't really thought about the IF, but I see NI as a very
insular possibly even pre-rabinic style Jewish state. 100% Kosha (sp?)
etc.
BTW are these female soldiers in the way we have them in the UK (i.e.
everyone but the people who actually fight) or like they appear in say
the
GZG range, with a rifle and fighting like any other grunt?
