Women's exclusion from combat has always been about keeping them outside of the loop, or outside of citizenship, as you describe it. What we need to question however is not how we can redress this but whether women's involvement in violence especially terrorism where they have had a higher presence can ever be truly empowering. I would suggest the answer is 'no'. Any thoughts?
