National Security College
The National Security College (Hebrew: המכללה לביטחון לאומי, variously abbreviated as MBL, MABL, MBAL, MABAL), also translated as the National Defense College is a military education institution in Israel intended to provide education on the foundations of national security at an academic level in political and social issues. The college is intended for senior members of all branches of the Israeli security forces.
The decision to establish the college was made in 1962, and it was opened in October 1963,[1] but in 1966 a committee was established to analyze whether the existence of the college was justified in view of the difficult economic situation.[2] It was decided that the college failed to efficiently address the stated goals, and it was decided to close it in 1967.[3] It was decided to reopen it in 1977.[4][5]
In 1991, it came under the command of the Headquarters of the Military Colleges.
In 2006, the college started to accept students from foreign militaries. [citation needed]
The College has contacts with Moscow State Institute of International Relations.[6]
