Israel Defense Forces’ Information Operations 2006-2014 Part 3
Abstract:
This article series examines the evolution of the Israel Defense Forces’ Information Operation activities during an eight-year timespan from 2006 to 2014. To this end, the case study shows a change in the Israel Defense Forces’ activities in the information domain. It also shows that, while battles can be easily won in the physical domain of the battlefield through superior firepower, the battles in the information domain are much more complicated and require much more diverse and complex means to achieve victories. The first part of the article series described the framework and methods of the study and two military operations conducted in 2006 and 2008-2009. The second article described two military operations conducted in 2012 and 2014. This third article sums up the evolution of Information Operations through the comparison of all the described operations.
