Of course Non-Jews are permitted to join the Israeli Defense Forces; Non-Jews have been part of the IDF since its inception. The mandatory draft was extended to the Druze in 1956 and Druze, Bedouins, and Circassians have volunteered in high numbers for positions in the Israeli Defense Forces since Israeli Independence in 1948. Ethnic-Palestinian Israeli citizens are also permitted to join the Israeli Defense Forces, but rarely do since many Ethnic-Palestinians Israeli citizens do not want to open fire on other Palestinians.

Why do all men and woman in Israel have to join the military when they are 18?
First of all, this is not exactly true. All Israeli Jewish men and women are required to join the Israeli Defense Forces at age 18. Religious Jews can apply for exemptions. Druze Israelis and Circassian Israelis have a mandatory draft for men and no draft for women. Israeli Bedouin men generally enlist, but are not required to. Other Arab-Israelis, mostly ethnic Palestinians are not drafted and do not enlist.As for why those who are required to join the IDF are required, this is because Israel sits in a neighborhood that is generally hostile to its existence and needs all of those men and women in the military to defend itself against threats.
