The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs is proud to host a Director's Seminar entitled "Cumulative Deterrence and its application in the war against terrorism" with Major General Doron Almog, Israeli Defense Forces. He has participated in four wars and has a range of experience in combat and special clandestine operations relevant to the ongoing war against terrorism. In his capacity as a general, he has applied the management principle of “Learning Organization” to the IDF, as well as the practical strategy in limited conflict known as “Cumulative Deterrence Strategy.” Most recently, he served as Commander of the IDF’s Southern Command.
In the past three years of intense warfare against terrorism, General Almog led the IDF in a robust campaign, combining defensive and offensive operations over the entire terrain of the Gaza Strip. During his tenure, the IDF prevented every single attempt by terrorists to breach the security barrier surrounding the Gaza Strip.
General Almog holds a master’s degree in business administration from Tel Aviv University and a master’s degree in international relations from Haifa University.
