On a new episode of Uncommon Knowledge, Peter Robinson (Peter Robinson) is joined by Zohar Palti—former head of the Intelligence Directorate in Israel's Mossad—for a rare, inside account of how Israel thinks about war, deterrence, and survival. From the shock of October 7 to the current campaign against Iran, Palti explains why Israel sees both nuclear capability and ballistic missiles as existential threats—and why waiting is not an option. The conversation explores the logic of preemptive war, the limits of intelligence when it comes to predicting regime change, and the realities of fighting a modern conflict—from missile defense and drone warfare to the vulnerability of global energy routes. Palti also reflects on Israel's internal challenges, the resilience of its people under constant attack, and the enduring partnership with the United States. A candid, strategic, and deeply personal look at how one of America's closest allies fights—and why it believes it must. Watch the full conversation Uncommon Knowledge conversation on X:

In December 2025, in the Zaporizhzhia direction, a sabotage and reconnaissance group from the Bratstvo unit - part of the Tymur Special Unit of Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence - carried out a deep raid behind Russian lines near the Kakhovka Reservoir. During the combat operation, the Warriors eliminated two Russian occupiers, wounded two others, and captured another two. Afterward, Bratstvo fighters conducted a complex and lengthy escort of the prisoners - covering a distance of approximately 27 kilometers - and brought them to Ukrainian-controlled territory. The captured Russian soldiers provided valuable intelligence on the locations of Russian officers, artillery positions, drone operators, troop concentrations, equipment, and ammunition depots. Glory! 📹: Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence
