| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article analyzes the elements of the asymmetry of deterrence in the Israeli context. It reflects my own insights derived from research and my long service in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), including a term as head of the IDF Intelligence Branch. This article contains the personal insights of someone who had the opportunity to be involved in both formulating deterrent positions and observing their effect on "the other side of the hill." Even taking into account the differences between the Israeli case and others, the Israeli case study may shed some light for other Western parties facing terrorist threats |
