It depends on who you ask.

Most Druze and most typical Muslims would agree that Druze and Islam are separate religions. Druze is clearly an offshoot of Islam, but goes far enough to be a separate faith. (This would be similar to how most Jews see Messianic Judaism, but not the other way around.)

However, anthropologists who classify religion hold that Druze is not significantly different enough from Islam to be a unique faith. Since most Druze values and beliefs are secret, it is highly unlikely that we will ever get a satisfactory answer.

As for myself, if both Islam and Druze can agree that the two religions are distinct, I see no point arguing with them.

Can Muslims serve in the Israeli military?

Yes. Numerous Muslims serve in the Israeli Defense Forces. The majority come from Bedouin families as opposed to the Palestinian Israelis, but there are some Palestinian Muslim Israelis who serve proudly in the IDF. Most Bedouins when asked about whether there is a Muslim injunction on fighting other Muslims, they respond by asking: And what about all of the wars between Muslim States? Circassians are another Muslim minority in Israel who serve in the army, but unlike the Bedouins who volunteer, Circassian males are conscripted mandatorily. There is a requirement for all Jews, all male Druze, and all male Circassians to serve in the Israeli Army. Bedouins and Palestinian Israelis have the choice to enlist or not. It is worth noting that although Druze are similar to Muslims, both Muslims and Druze believe that the Druze are a distinct religion.
