Title: Political Exit Strategy vs Counter-Force Results Name: Ovadiah ben Avraham City: Jerusalem State: Israel
I would never claim that Israel fights in a political vacuum, and can disregard international political developments. But whenever Israel commits troops, it first and foremost should always make counter-force successes the primary goal. It is useless to make advances or feints proportionate to international documents and their negotiations. The only way to improve your position at the international table is to kill the enemy`s war-making capacity. There is fog of war, but there is also transparency of results. Whoever comes to the table kneeling will pay the price of having gone to war.
