The IDF and the Second Lebanon War / 
Samuel Chan 
 -  2009 
<br/><br/> Critical assessment of Israel's ineffective July-August 2006 war in Lebanon. Asks why the IDF now appears to be a hollow shell of its once legendary former self and suggests the reasons can be found in a three way crisis: of purpose, in relations between the military and its political masters, and in relations with the Israeli public.
