For those who don't think women should be discriminated against
in the silos, do you also think women should be allowed in 
combat zones?  If not, why the discrepancy?  If so, would you
draw the line at some level of risk?  E.g. onboard ships vs.
flying combat aircraft vs. ground forces vs. elite ground forces
(Rangers, Paras, Marines) vs. Suicidal ground forces.

The obvious test case is the Israeli armed forces.  But do they
have female pilots, and if not, does anyone out there know the
reason?

Any opinions on what a completely co-ed military would do for/to
morale?
