From the perspective of a few months it appears that the public response to the Winograd Commission findings has been minimal. Nevertheless, the report lies in the public domain and one should not underestimate its impact on decision makers and on public opinion in Israel and the region. In depth examination of both parts of the report – the partial version and the final report – raises a considerable number of questions with regard to its relevance to the security challenges facing the State of Israel. Moreover, the testimonies that were published and in particular the questions the commission put to the witnesses allow close examination of the commission’s approach to the security reality that Israel confronts.
