Israel's Eitan profile likened to Blood and Patton
A confidential intelligence profile portrays Maj. Gen. Rafael Eitan as a cocky, singleminded Israeli commander who favors total victory, shuns negotiations, and shares rigid, combat‑driven thinking with a taste for risk. The report compares him to Patton and Dayan, noting his disdain for political talk and preference for military solutions. Also noted is Lockheed's bid to overturn a Senate loss over the C‑5N purchase, with Georgia backing the project.
