## About this book

Iron Dome: A History of Israel's Military Strategy, Volume 1, is a detailed history examining how a specific missile defense system transformed Israeli politics and military planning. Jean-Loup Samaan analyzes the rapid development of the Iron Dome and its role as a symbol of modern warfare. The text uses fieldwork and interviews with American and Israeli officials to explain how the system mitigated civilian fear during conflicts with Hamas and Hezbollah.

This history book explores the broader implications of the technology since the 2007 Hamas takeover of the Gaza Strip. It examines the internal struggles of the Israeli Defense Forces to adapt their strategy and the resulting impact on Israel-US military cooperation. Samaan provides a professional analysis of the tensions between offensive and defensive operations, focusing on the intersection of technology and strategy in contemporary combat.
