Crynodeb

Using the Israeli case study of the Military Intelligence Directorate (AMAN), this article presents the unique role of intelligence organisations in securitization processes, in which security threats are defined as such. Similar to the Six Day War and the Yom Kippur War, unsing its epistemic authority to define what are security threats and what are not, AMAN had a central and decisive role in shaping the concept, according to which Hamas is deterred from a war with Israel. Based on AMAN's failed conception, Israel did not perceive Hamas as an existential threat and did not securitize it before 07 October 2023.
