Abstract
- The 2006 War between Israel and Hezbollah had a significant component ofPSYOP. For the first time in its military history Israel deployed PSYOP as an inseparablepart of its military operations. The performance of the PSYOP unit was lessthan satisfactory due to organizational factors and the general conduct of the waritself. This article analyzes the goals, the themes, and the delivery channels usedthroughout the PSYOP campaign. An attempt is made to answer the key questionof whether this effort was effective.Keywords 2006 Lebanon War, Hezbollah, Israel, PSYOPIntroduction
