The wars fought between the Arab nations and the Israel have drawn the attention of military analysts for nearly five decades. Tactical warfare as well as performance of modern weapons have been of particular interest. Since the Israel was created in 1948, the weaponry on both Israeli and Arab sides has grown in quantity and sophistication, and tactical doctrine on both sides has evolved as well. The lessons to be learned from Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon point more particularly, however, to politics, not military tactics or modern arms. Chapters include: Clausewitz and the philosophy of war and politics. Bibliography. Maps and tables.

Israel's 34-day bombardment of Lebanon in the summer of 2006 demands international attention not only for its tragic results-the death of over 1,000 Lebanese civilians and the devastation of Lebanon's infrastructure and environment-but for its implications for all of the Middle East. What explains Hizballah's capture of two Israeli soldiers and the scale of Israel's retaliation? Why did the US reject an early cease-fire, instead encouraging Israel as Lebanese casualties mounted? Why did President Bush and Secretary of State Rice claim the Lebanese and the Arab world would welcome the "birth pangs" of a "new Middle East" designed by the US and Israel? And where will it all lead? Will Lebanon become a modern, non-sectarian state or will the confessional order be further entrenched?

This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The fact that the outcome of the 2006 Hezbollah-Israeli War was, at best, a stalemate for Israel has confounded military analysts. Long considered the most professional and powerful army in the Middle East, with a history of impressive military victories against its enemies, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) emerged from the campaign with its enemies undefeated and its prestige tarnished. This historical analysis of the war includes an examination of IDF and Hezbollah doctrine prior to the war, as well as an overview of the operational and tactical problems encountered by the IDF during the war. The IDF ground forces were tactically unprepared and untrained to fight against a determined Hezbollah force. ¿An insightful, comprehensive examination of the war.¿ Illustrations.
