The first public announcement of the doctrine was made by general [[Gadi Eizenkot]], commander of the IDF's northern front, in October 2008. He said that what happened in the [[Dahieh|Dahya]] (also transliterated as Dahiyeh and Dahieh) quarter of [[Beirut]] in 2006 would, "happen in every village from which shots were fired in the direction of Israel. We will wield [[Proportionality (law)#International humanitarian law|disproportionate power]] against [them] and cause immense damage and destruction. From our perspective, these are military bases. [...] This isn't a suggestion. It's a plan that has already been authorized. [...] Harming the population is the only means of restraining [[Hassan Nasrallah|Nasrallah]]."
