This paper sheds light on the Israeli military and security innovation in the framework of settler-colonialism and the prolonged occupation of the Palestinian territories. A key variable for understanding Israel's global rise in military and security innovation pertains to the decades-long colonial ventures and regional wars. Despite its extensive efforts and investments in security and military production, Israel continues to be structurally dependent on the U.S military system, financial aid, and private investments. Beside the high profitability of security and military innovation to Israel's war economy, it also serves as a key foreign policy instrument to achieve a variety of regional and international objectives (e.g., weapon diplomacy and regional normalization).
