🇮🇱 Ex-Israeli intel boss outlines unwritten post-October 7 security doctrine

A former head of Israeli military intelligence has published a paper outlining 10 principles he says can be inferred from Israel's current security policy — a doctrine that has never been formally articulated, the Middle East Eye reports.

👉 Writing for Tel Aviv University's INSS, Tamir Hayman says the concept assumes that Arab states are "not genuine nation-states," that arrangements with Arab actors are "temporary," and that peace agreements are "technical arrangements requiring constant reassessment." It treats war as "essential to national security" and views the US as a "declining power."

Hayman describes his list as a deliberately exaggerated interpretation meant to spark debate and warns that if these principles do guide policy, they reveal a fundamental contradiction with Israel's traditional security concept.
