The mistakes Israel must avoid against Hezbollah and Iran

In Lebanon, Israel’s response must be backed by a plan with clear end goals. In Iran, Israel’s expectation that the regime will fall must be recalculated. Developments on both fronts will force Israel to fight in arenas where it is far less effective.

Not dates, but processes: How will we know when the war is over?

At their meeting a month ago, Netanyahu compared Israel and the US to the honey badger and the ancient tiger — and on the battlefield, that's exactly how they operate: one small, feral, and tough; the other powerful, with no arms economy.
