INSS Insight No. 82,
Severe financial crises are connected to national security. They impinge on a state's national resilience and its ability to realize its national objectives: they impose budgetary constraints on the defense system, limit political maneuverability, jeopardize the public welfare, increase crime, and are liable to invite dangerous social processes. Therefore it is important to deal with them swiftly, firmly, and from a comprehensive systemic perspective.

"Mortgage Rates Fall as U.S. Expands Rescue" was the page-one headline in the November 26 Wall Street Journal. The story concerned a promise from federal officials to "pump" another $800 billion into the economy, bringing the grand total of the cost of various bailouts to something over $8 trillion. The term "rescue" is laughable but is used for the obvious purpose of confusing people about the calamity that has befallen our nation. If we're not bankrupt now, we will be someday because we are being "rescued" by the federal government. This is the ultimate in what William Lutz, in his 1997 book of the same name, called "doublespeak."

This is the kind of threat and problem Israel has been facing for decades. What are the lessons for India from Israel's experience, points also reflected by India's own recent history?
