- Conflict: Gen. (Ret.) David H. Petraeus and Andrew Roberts in Conversation with Evan Osnos
How does what we’ve learned from the past 70 years of war help us comprehend what is happening in Israel now?
General David Petraeus, the outstanding battlefield commander and strategist of our time, and the prize-winning historian Andrew Roberts draw on their differing perspectives and areas of expertise to give a highly expert analysis of the situation in Israel, the failures of intelligence, the difficulties of the military operation ahead. They are joined by New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos for a timely and penetrating conversation about the current situation, as well as their landmark new book, Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Ukraine.
Petraeus and Roberts discuss how often critical mistakes have been repeated time and again, and the challenge, for statesmen and generals alike, of learning to adapt to various new weapon systems, theories and strategies. They’ll reveal the story of how they came to write this book - and discuss its biggest single takeaway: the importance of sound strategic leadership, starting with getting the big ideas right. They will then share their perspective on what Netanyahu’s big idea is in the campaign against Hamas.

The information, thinking and insight provided by this interview are hard to equal anywhere.
Agreed: Absolutely unrivalled- except in most similar academic discussions.
Enjoyed the book and discussion
Excellent!
Thanks, 92nd St.
great discussion
This was great
A great quote again. ONLY THE DEAD KNOW THE END TO WAR.. GREAT QUOTE GENTLEMEN
It’s Plato, I think
brilliant conversation on the current situation in ukraine and israel
These are two persons to be respected. i have resided abroad for most of my career, in Brasil, Paris and Hong Kong and have worked with colleagues in nearly 70 countries. my academics are in labor economics. i have no solutions for the many human problems extant in the World. but my experiences gained in five continents from LA, Europe, Asia, A/NZ and NA compel European
Petraeus is not a person to be respected. He was the one who ordered the drone attacks which killed so many innocents in afghanistan
You were born abroad too unless you’re from Great Britain. 🇬🇧
Hello General David
Solid 👍🏾
Andrew Roberts is great
There was a moment when I imagined General David H. Petraeus becoming President...
I would think a “battle rhythm” would make your action predictable

I have to sat that the New York Times has had pretty shoddy reporting regarding the Palestinians and China lately.

In his concluding remarks, Prof. Roberts calls a spade a spade.
One cannot reason with those that are self righteous and feel entitled to abominable acts.
Robots concepts?
For being a "historian" this British General doesn't know the difference between a democracy and a republic. I almost regret purchasing his book, but will read it with a much more critical/jaundice eye.
His jokes in the beginning about invading Vietnam were very distastefull. A man very full of himself.
You are incredibly dumb and completely missing the point, what he's forgotten about war and history is more than you will ever know.
@@buschinpolen not at all you just don't understand irony
General Petreus was announcing the imminent collapse of Russia over a year ago, two years in and there's no end in sight for the Ukraine War. Also, after reading Churchill's biography, comparing Zelensky to him is at the very least 'abusively ignorant'. Apart from that, Israel has lost international support for their cause in general but very specifically American tax payer support which is crucial for them. All in all, a very limited and self-serving analysis for two men with impressive credentials.
O learned and all seeing one, what has Zelensky done that fails the standard applied here?
@@logicalspartanSingle handedly destroying his country, for once! ... as a result of his political decisions! In that sense he's a like a hypothetical pseudo "Churchill" losing the Battle for Britain and his existential war!
@@fls6767 Make sure you cash Vlad's check, it will not be good for much longer.
Thanks for nothin’, General Betrayed Us!

No, you're American and just don't get it.

Fart big time
The huge amount of American taxpayer $$$ that was totally wasted in Afghanistan & Iraq is hardly ever mentioned. Soldiers want to continue occupation forever if they have their way because it makes their job relevant. The Defense Department has never been able to pass an audit and Congress is to all in to never stop their funding or impose major penalties until it can do so.
Pitiful!
Imagine having this crazy saddam still in power or his even more crazy sons, probably with nukes, was hard way through insurgents, isis, allegations of warcrimes, strengthening Iran probably, but Saddam Hussein is dead, Isis is gone and iraq isn’t able to threaten anyone with any kind of weapons.n
I seriously question the host''s statement that Zelensky is like Churchill with a cell phone. Given his propensity to support Nazis, makes him more like Charlie Chaplin with a cell phone.
The world is on fuckin fire and these guys are laughing and joking like they are at a fuckin London tea party
words, jokers
Oh look a doom merchant, the world is not on fire..What would you prefer ? Them crying and hiding under the bed covers....Have a day off you clown
