	Bar Lev Line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		According to the historian Rabinovich, strategically, the Bar-Lev line was a blunder — too lightly manned to be an effective defensive line and too heavily manned to be an expendable tripwire.
		Moreover, some say the idea of the line was counter-intuitive to the strengths of Israeli battle tactics which in their core relied on agile mobile forces moving rapidly through the battlefield rather than utilizing a heavy reliance on fixed defenses.

		Rabinovich may overpraise Henry Kissinger, and he may underplay the Israeli Air Force, but his book covers everything else at a level equally useful to both the newcomer and the experienced student of the subject.
		However, Rabinovich indicates a deft grasp of the rapid vacillations between offense and defense as he revisits the roles and interactions of infantry and tank time and again.
		Rabinovich infused his narrative with anecdotes and primary sources that nicely capture the tremendous pressure that Israel faced, and the enormous ingenuity that allowed it to eventually turn the tide.

		After reading Rabinovich's explanation of the war's details, it is understandable why Israeli military families were so upset and angry after the war with their leaders, most notably Moshe Dayan, who, banking on Israel's successes in the six day war of 1967, were slow in responding to the crisis.
		In Rabinovich's opinion, Moshe Dayan was right on many scores, one in particular that Golda Meir had rejected, although he misread Egypt's intentions.
		All in all, Rabinovich recreates the atmosphere surrounding those parties involved in this war although of course the subject matter for the most part was so dreadful and tragic.

	The Good War
		Rabinovich's lack of Arabic means that he has no access to the Arabic press and memoirs of the war, except for items translated into Hebrew or English.
		So, despite Rabinovich's criticisms of the Israeli general staff for underestimating Arab military capabilities in 1973, he himself is a victim of the same historical shortsightedness that led to this miscalculation.
		Rabinovich undermines his own invocation of the existential danger facing Israel and his recapitulation of the David and Goliath story by his correct statement that Sadat wanted a short war with a limited political goal.

		I'm a convert to Judaism, and Abraham is considered the father of Jewish converts.
		Abraham's story is a lot of other people's story as well, people who are not converts and are not Jewish, but who grew up without a religious tradition and searched and groped for the truth, finally discovering it in Abraham's God.
		The philosopher Abraham Joshua Heschel said this very well: "It may seem easy to play with the idea that the Bible is a book like many other books," a "fairy tale." But "consider what such denial implies.

	The Jewish Eye - The Yom Kippur War
		Not only does Rabinovich tell the story from the viewpoint of the major players such as Golda Meir, Anwar Sadat, and Henry Kissinger, but also from the viewpoint of the officers and foot soldiers who fought on the battlefields.
		Rabinovich looks at the role the American and other Western powers had in the lead up to and prosecution of the war and how the aftermath of the war still impacts Israel's relationships with their Middle Eastern neighbors and their Western 'allies'.
		The information that Rabinovich delineates within the pages of this book not only provides new insights into this monumental period in history, but it also helps the reader to understand some of the residual effects of the war and the role it has played in the current Arab-Israeli conflict.

	The Good War
		Rather, as Rabinovich makes clear, the arrogance born of easy victory in 1967 led the Israeli high command to underestimate its opponents and ignore intelligence contradicting its preconceived understanding of the strategic situation.
		The main effect of the air raid, according to Rabinovich, was deterrent: It ended the Frog missile attacks on Israel.
		Even though Rabinovich ultimately succumbs to the same romanticization as Blum, albeit on a less extravagant scale, his version of the 1973 war may well receive the kind of canonical status that Michael Oren's account of the 1967 war is on the way to achieving.

		With penetrating insight into the Israeli military and political mind, Rabinovich reveals the origins of Israel's failure to recognize the abundant signs of the approaching war, to prepare for battlefield innovations -- SAM anti-aircraft and Sagger anti-tank missiles -- and to appreciate the combat-readiness of the Egyptian and Syrian soldier.
		Rabinovich is overwhelmingly concerned with the Yom Kippur War and not with the October or Ramadan War, as all Arabs call it.
		Rabinovich is well known for his other work in the Jerusalem Post and he is an acknowledged expert on political and military affairs.

		The Israelis, Rabinovich argues, played into Sadat’s hands with intelligence failures that delayed their mobilization, gross underestimation of Arab fighting qualities and not reckoning on new enemy weapons (the SA-6 anti-aircraft missile and the Sagger anti-tank missile) that would make the Israeli Air Force and armour-heavy ground troops vulnerable.

		Furthermore, because of the increased availability of primary sources, he is able to fill in many of the gaps left by previous studies, especially where the interactions between Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff David Elazar and Defense Minister Moshe Dayan and their generals are concerned.
		Rabinovich includes in his narrative detailed descriptions of combat at every level from squad to division, but it is difficult to place these actions within the appropriate operational and strategic context without useful maps.
