Committee examining state of IDF suspended its activity 08.21.06, 21:22

The committee appointed by Defense Minister Amir Peretz to inquire upon the state of the IDF before and during the war in Lebanon suspended its operations.


The operations were suspended due to the plans to establish another committee that can invalidate the committee of inquiry led by former Chief of Staff Amnon Lipkin-Shahak. Another reason is related to the nature of the discussions and whether they will be closed to the media.

The loss of this committee is no loss as it was just going to white wash any mistakes of the Defense Minister Amir Peretz.

We really don't need a committee to talk the problem to death, it very simple to solve the problem.
Give the IDF a mandate to call up the reserves to train, and then once the training is done we need to go to war on three fronts.

Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. If we don't do this in the next 45-60 days which is the quickest that we could do it then we are just giving them more time to build.

The construction in Gaza has already started; the goal is to make Gaza like southern Lebanon.
