The Third Historic Revenge of Israel: This Time with Artificial Intelligence on the Battlefield
A New Era of Retaliation
October 13, 2023 marked a significant turning point in the history of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Just a few days after Hamas’ devastating attack on Israeli communities, intelligence services began preparing a list of targets with the responsible leaders. This modern approach includes advanced tools such as artificial intelligence systems that analyze data in real time to identify and…
Unlike previous campaigns, such as the hunt for Nazis after World War II and the targeted killings following Munich ’72, this new wave of retaliation is unfolding with state-of-the-art technological resources.
Algorithms Transforming Warfare
One of the key systems in this strategy is Habsora (“the Gospel”), a tool that generates additional targets by analyzing data collected over years of conflict in Gaza. This software uses machine learning to identify patterns and predict movements, reducing the time needed to make critical decisions.
In addition, other devices like Fire Factory and Lavender support operations, offering an unprecedented level of precision, communication interceptions, and social media activity.
The Controversy Behind Precision
While the use of artificial intelligence has been praised for its ability to minimize collateral damage and increase the effectiveness of attacks, it has also sparked criticism. International organizations have questioned the reliability of the algorithms, especially where the civilian population is closely linked to Hamas activities.
However, IDF spokespersons have defended these technologies, stating that they are designed to minimize civilian casualties while achieving specific military objectives.
Israel has made it clear that its campaign is not limited to Hamas. Recent incursions in Yemen and warnings against the Houthis show that this retaliation strategy encompasses any group that poses a threat to the country’s security.
With the support of tanks, F-35 aircraft, and a network of algorithmic systems, Israel continues to use cutting-edge technology to protect itself and seek justice against its enemies.
This third revolution in the history of Israeli retaliation demonstrates how artificial intelligence is redefining the battlefield, marking a before and after in the way modern conflicts are faced.
