A comprehensive account of Israel's doctrine of national security,
this study examines to what degree security theories have proven
valid and suggests an updated security doctrine for the next
century. Beginning with the establishment of the state of Israel in
1948, Israeli defense planners have faced a daunting task. General
Tal describes the history of the Israel-Arab wars from the War of
Independence onward and presents a security theory specific to
Israel from which the fighting doctrines of the Israeli military
derive. He also to categorizes the levels of security various
nations enjoy as a result of their differing geo-political
situations, their power, and the conflicts of interests that they
face with their neighbors. This volume clarifies topics in the area
of national security, the art of war, principles of war, and
lessons learned from past conflicts. Tal concludes that previous
security theory proved valid because it was based upon a decision
to allocate the great portion of available resources, both
intellectual and material, to secure national defense. However,
this theory is no longer valid due to political changes in the
Middle East and the development of modern military technologies. He
asserts a new approach that rests upon mutual strategic deterrence
throughout the region.
