La gravit\u00e9 du probl\u00e8me doit \u00eatre \u00e9valu\u00e9 en fonction du fait que les op\u00e9rations de <em>Tsahal<\/em> d\u00e9pendaient d&rsquo;une planification longuement travaill\u00e9e dans la perspective d&rsquo;une op\u00e9ration contre le Hezbollah, et qu&rsquo;elles ont \u00e9t\u00e9 engag\u00e9es hors de toute pression d&rsquo;un danger direct. La seule pression existante \u00e9tait celle des exigences diverses : celle du commandement, celle du pouvoir politique isra\u00e9lien, celle de l&rsquo;alli\u00e9 US.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>\tCe probl\u00e8me nous r\u00e9v\u00e8le exactement les conceptions qui pr\u00e9sident aujourd&rsquo;hui au fonctionnement de <em>Tsahal<\/em> et l&rsquo;\u00e9tat d&rsquo;esprit qui r\u00e8gne chez les chefs de cette arm\u00e9e. On retrouve toutes les caract\u00e9ristiques des arm\u00e9es modernes sur le mod\u00e8le am\u00e9ricaniste. L&rsquo;accent sur les technologies et les interventions automatiques massives, essentiellement a\u00e9riennes, laissent compl\u00e8tement de c\u00f4t\u00e9 les questions psychologiques et d&rsquo;organisation humaine, obstruant syst\u00e9matiquement les initiatives de terrain. La hi\u00e9rarchie n&rsquo;est plus pr\u00e9occup\u00e9e que de la seule marche des aspects de la planification qui la concernent ; elle est plus pr\u00e9occup\u00e9e des effets de l&rsquo;action sur sa propre organisation que sur les op\u00e9rations elles-m\u00eames.

The regiment commander told me he was not ready. So I went to the division commander &#8230; he told me: I don&rsquo;t care, we&rsquo;re going in&rsquo;.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>\t\u00bb <em>Amnon returned to his division commander twice to request the order be changed and was rejected both times. In the end, he said, he subverted his orders because of his fears of mass casualties. Amnon, who made the claims in an interview with award-winning Israeli film director Nurit Kedar, commanded thousands of soldiers on the eastern section of the south Lebanon front.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>\t\u00bb <em>Referring to the need to balance the pressure from higher up the military chain to launch the operation swiftly with trying to minimise the risks to the soldiers, Amnon said: It was clear to me that I must carry out my mission, but I did not want others below me to know I was in this dilemma. Many things went wrong in the decision-making process concerning the handling of my operation. My division commander had his own evaluation. The officers at army headquarters were out of touch with what was happening on the ground &#8230; we made so many changes in 24 hours.
