The IDF Military Intelligence Language School
(Jerusalem Post) Anna Ahronheim - At the IDF Military Intelligence Language School, soldiers can become fluent in Arabic or Persian in less than two months. "We aren't here just to learn a language," said Maj. "V." "The language is a tool to get and understand the intelligence we collect." The school uses innovative approaches and learning environments that within weeks has soldiers understanding both the language and culture of their enemies. Students learn from 8 a.m. until 11 p.m. every day. "Today there are more and more translation tools, so why would you need people to learn a language? Because...you still need people who don't only know the language" but who can read between the lines and give the precise intelligence the military needs.
