[quote=Anonymous]There is I think a deeper issue with Israeli defense strategy. The country has a doctrine of "disproportionate response". It was originally formulated by Moshe Dayan and David Ben Gurion in the 50's. The goal is that any threat to Israel, even small, must be met with such an overwhelming response that it would deter future aggression. In the early days this meant taking out military and political targets in third party arab countries. But in Palestine, there is not an army to bomb. So they take it out on the population. Thus the bulldozers and the mass arrests without trial, the blockades and so on. And when war does happen, as it predictably will when they do these crackdowns, they will blow up neighborhoods and schools. Because surely there is someone with a rocket or a gun in the vicinity.[/quote]
