Lebanon ceasefire does not seem working
A new ceasefire in Lebanon and talk of Israel withdrawing from some areas has raised questions about the current Israeli war-fighting doctrine.
The slow war in Lebanon, based on a doctrine from Gaza, has resulted in leaving Hezbollah in the field just miles from Israel's northern border.
Israel has been fighting a war for 989 days since the October 7 massacre in 2023. While the war was imposed on Israel by Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist attacks, the IDF has had a duty to change the situation and fight the war on its own terms.
During the first months of war, the IDF had to respond and recuperate. With more than 1,000 Israelis killed, 250 taken hostage, and the IDF scrambling to call up and train some 500,000 reservists, there were unprecedented strains.
