The 2006 Israel-Hezbollah conflict was a turning point in the complex political and military relationship that has maintained a precarious balance in the Middle East. It exposed the weakness of a powerful conventional military force when confronted with irregular warfare conducted by an adversary who does not follow the traditional warfighting methods or subscribe to the conventional definition of victory.
Although the conflict was essentially military in nature, it brought out a number of larger issues some of which have universal applicability-the interaction between the political and military decision makers in a democracy, the accountability of an elected government towards the people and the necessity for a nation-state to ensure its security by using all elements of national power.
This book is an analysis of the 2006 conflict with an emphasis on the strategic issues that stem from it and draws out observations that would be of relevance to all democratic nation-states.
