The response from Jerusalem was both quick and violent, surprising Hizballah's leadership and triggering the month -long Second Lebanon War. The event left the IDF a chastened force and Israel an introspective nation. The IDF's efforts to learn from the war and correct recognized deficiencies began immediately. This book draws on information provided by serving IDF personnel during a March 2007 conference held in Tel Aviv, interviews with retired IDF officers, and written sources. The analysis first reviews identified shortfalls, then offers an external perspective to provide further thoughts on sources of difficulties and analyze what the conflict offers the U.S. military in the way of lessons that might assist as it confronts operational challenges today and in the future. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (RAND, viewed August 15, 2012). 650 0 Lebanon War, 2006|xEvaluation. 650 0 Military planning|zIsrael|xEvaluation. 650 0 Strategy|xEvaluation. 650 0 Lessons learned. 651 0 Israel|xMilitary policy|xEvaluation. 710 1 United States.|bJoint Forces Command. 710 2 National Defense Research Institute (U.S.) 710 2 Rand Corporation. 830 0 Rand Corporation monograph series ;|vMG-708-1-JFCOM. 914 ocn806221096 994 92|bCKE
