The Naveh Method

This investigative video explores the controversial impact of Dr. Shimon Naveh and the Operational Theory Research Institute (OTRI) on the strategic doctrine of the Israel Defense Forces. It examines claims that abstract academic and philosophical frameworks replaced traditional military principles such as decisive victory, introducing concepts like “limited conflict” and “containment.” Critics argue that this shift weakened the IDF’s combat effectiveness, contributing to confusion among senior commanders during the Second Lebanon War and in subsequent years. The video also delves into allegations of a military culture in which high-ranking officers view themselves as political actors, operating beyond or around elected leadership. Ultimately, it connects these doctrinal changes to deeper systemic failures that culminated in major intelligence and operational breakdowns in recent years.
