Is "Victory" a Dirty Word in Hebrew?..........by Dan Friedman
Both good news and bad news here. The good news is the IDF is bulking up and adjusting its combat systems and its defense doctrine to reflect the turmoil and change Israel faces in the new Middle East. (Although, not much about the long-range Cruise-like missiles Israel will need to deter a nuclear Iran.) The bad news is, as formidable and professional as Israel’s military is, as always, the political echelon’s weak leadership is responsible for the dire circumstances the military is being forced to prepare for. This escalating chase-your-tail syndrome will never cease until Israeli politicians finally let Israeli generals follow thru and win a war. df
