(1) The IDF is "ineffective" on an absolute scale.
(2) The IDF is significantly more effective than most other organizations.
While better isn't perfect, you can learn from both.
- Nimi 14y agoWhy do you claim that the IDF is more effective than other organizations?
- ars 14y agohttp://www.globalfirepower.com/ http://www.globalfirepower.com/ Compare that list to the population size of each country, Israel is a very large outlier. National will is important, but you don't rank on that list by being ineffective.
- anamax 14y ago> Why do you claim that the IDF is more effective than other organizations? I didn't claim that the IDF was more effective than all organizations, I said that it was more effective than most. For example, I'd claim that the IDF is more effective than almost every failed startup.... (You can argue that many fail for reasons outside their control, but I'll respond that such vulnerabilities are a failure.)
