- General David Petraeus, former director of the CIA, delves into a wide range of past and present global conflicts; from Iraq and Afghanistan, where he led the US forces, to Ukraine, Gaza, and the future of US-China relations.

General (U.S. Army, Ret.) David H. Petraeus is the Kissinger Fellow at Yale’s Jackson School of Global Affairs, the Chair of the Global Institute of a major investment firm, and a former director of the CIA. Petraeus served over 37 years in the U.S. military, culminating his career with six consecutive commands as a general officer, five of which were in combat, including command of the Surge in Iraq, command of U.S. Central Command, and command of coalition forces in Afghanistan. In this wide-ranging interview, he argues that the lessons America learned in Iraq are not being fully taken up by Israel, that there is no alternative to providing aid to Ukraine, and sometimes wars involve unpalatable choices. Interviewed by Alexis Papazoglou, managing editor of LSE Politics Blog.

I am extremely happy to have come across this interview as it allowed me to much better know about general Petraeus. He and general Bel Hodges make a great team that really understand everything about war and know how to express it. General Petraeus is extremely smart and talented.
Wait, did he really say Russia launched the first invasion since WW2 5 minutes after talking about Iraq?
I think he meant, of a European country.
He thinks it's ok if we do it but not if they do it😂
Was the territorial integrity of Serbia not violated in 1999?

So, basically he led two of the worst wars in US history and lost both.
Wasnt Petraeus who bombed out of Afghanistan like a fool. That was Biden.
The Iraq wars were won. Occupations are a different matter.

And then to deny your mistakes. That takes a lot of skill and denial..
The ignorance of your comment is an example of the downfall of the ability to think.
He didn’t “lose the war” the us has never lost a battle in Afghanistan nor Iraq…. Politicians and the law of war.. lost the war
Shocking to hear him casually talk about algorithmic weapons systems. Richard
Yes I noticed that problem also - NO self authorizing lethal Ai drones, planes, bombs!
Yes. They should be banned by international agreement.
Have so much respect for the General. So experienced and so enlightened about how Middle East works. These Liberal so called Think Tanks have never stepped in Middle East and act like they know better than the general.
General Petrarus is spot on.
It’s a pathetic plan for Gaza , he lost Iraq and Afghanistan. Should have no place in policy making
Please, unless you have walked the walk, you have no idea of the big picture. He was a general in charge of what his orders were, not his war he was just a player.

@@TheLesporter It was these people who committed crimes against humanity on site not those politicians

@@JohnnyComelately-eb5zvyes, false equivalences are so excellent
Absolutely great Question 👌🏾
The General towers over the interviewer
The interviewer is smug, vacuous bordering on dishonest, and lacks intellectual integrity.
Petraeus is a well-trained and obedient Corporate General.
Correct. Marine General Smedley Butler also was in the forefront of being an enforcer for corporate America in Central America and elsewhere.
However, he “saw the light” and refused to lead a coup d’etat against Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
@@garysantos7053 😀😃🙂🙃😊😇😀😃🙂🙃😊😇😀😃
A lot of emphasis on obedient. He is loyal too.
Trained to lead failed war and killing innocent people. He knows what Israel is doing in Palestine for decades but pretends that it started on 07 Oct. The world is led by greedy politicians who are corrupted like this guy.
Bots and trolls in the comment section. Petraeus is always worth listening to.
David Petraeus is exactly right on Afghanistan.
We should never have gone into Iraq.
ps - I"m an American, hence "we"
AMERICAN KIDS SHOULDN'T DIE FOR ISRAEL OR UKRAINE
Good thing they arent idiot.
No one has even proposed sending troops to Ukraine or Israel. More On!
how is this guy considered an expert after failing miserably in iraq and Afghanistan
Because hindsight is the perfect science
As a general, you have to take orders
He didnt fail in Afghanistan. Biden did.
In Iraq he had to implement the policy of the administration. he actually was very effective in the Iraq surge.
Well, you didn’t fail if your goal was never to win, they went in to loot and destroy whatever they could.
So why didn't you take control and solve all the problems? Put your money where your mouth is.
I always thought the deliberate defunding of Israeli intelligence services would lead to a territorial incursion.
Territorial incursion?? You mean INVASION?
So the guy who shares classified info with his mistress walks the streets, while Assange was imprisoned for over a decade for informing us about our Government's Activities. Banana Republic.
Unlike many of the others who’ve made comments, I appreciate that IAI put this individual on, who has an undeniably important legacy and a unique voice. If you disagree with his thoughts… alright, great. Let us know why you believe his arguments are bad instead of squawking ad hominems.
If we aren’t mature enough to critically consider the opinions of people we disagree with or find difficult for whatever reason, we shouldn’t be listening material from an institute of art and ideas.
A legacy of death, destruction and idiocy. There's nothing whatsoever unique about this.
A legacy of murder and carnage on an unimaginable scale. Nothing unique about it. Your comment is astonishingly immature. Your squeaking is nauseating.
A legacy of violence on an unimaginable scale. Nothing unique about it.
The censors from the Ministry of Truth are out in force today.
Isn't it interesting how obsequious comments like yours aren't censored but critical comments are?
It is really concerning that this guy, with his ideas, was a senior official in the US Army and CIA.
That's why the US lost two wars, on top of having bad politicians.
The U.S. military fared disastrously in terms of casualties per capita in WW I under the failed cavalry officer Pershing. WW II was a mixed affair and too lengthy a subject to comment upon here (except to draw attention to Admiral King’s disastrous handling of the North Pacific theater).
However, since WW II it has been a consistent shambles.
And now we have “the icing 🧁 on the cake”…
Faced with threats throughout the Levant, the South China Sea, and the Ukraine - the U. S. military cannot and will not be able to cope for several glaring reasons. Ever since they could not cope with the Somali pirates interfering with the key trade route through the Suez Canal a few years ago, “the writing was on the wall.”
@@lecaprice2572
They will just deny everything and claim you're using Putin's talking points, whatever that means. People like Petraeus have a mindset impervious to facts on the ground. Just re-listen to this interview, (audio-only) and you'll see how he's twisting plain facts to suit his warped ideology. Cultists have a similar way of thinking.
Petraeus was one of the best military leaders the US has had in recent years.
I say put your money where your mouth is if you are going to call Petraeus a failure. Go ahead and solve all the world's problems today since you are so smart.
@@moonmunster the best who lost two wars, Great!
@@moonmunster put your money where your mouth is?😂 He was one of the main people overseeing OIF for years that served as a massive failure and just listen to what he saying here all of the same overall talking points that were the reasons we failed. Does t even address what were the main failures and how we could have done it differently.
General, please run for president!
Keep the dialogue moving.
Well done 👍🏾
He really seems deluded in his thinking and ideas. Probably the result of being a component in the establishment bubble.
Yeah, your anti-expertise in anything would make you a good judge of his…
@@davidcline471 sure genius
Intelligence maybe but single minded dimensions displayed here do not reflect the reality.
He speaks like a man who's had too much power and not enough accountability.
A failure general preaching how to succeed!
The interviewer was too unexperienced for this interview. He looked timid, avoided eye contact when speaking, and sending Morse codes by blinking his eyes during questions. He could have and should have asked better questions.
It's funny how he talks about "improving life in Gaza" but never mentioned that the people of Gaza have the right to be free in their land and not live in an open air prison.
The "people" in Gaza have been occupied by Hamas, not by Israel. The Palestinians have consistently squandered tens of millions of dollars and scores of opportunities to be free in their own land.
The interviewer IS TRYING TO MAKE A MORAL EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN HAMAS AND Israel. Duh! And between Russia and the Ukrainians or US. He's full of it.
As a former Marine, intelligence analyst, (85-89) I learned what really led me to join the military was all the imagery and rhetoric, the prestige and ceremony and the cult of manliness. I served honorably but had an awakening and renounced my service to warlords. A have since joined the ranks of peacemakers.
Who are the peacemakers you say you have joined?
@@Dreadnought16 Hi Dreadnought16. The peacemakers are those that see with a civilian reality rather than a military reality. Renouncing violence and military prestige is a start. I was a low level analyst and I am a low level citizen. Jeffrey Sachs, comes to mind as one I can relate to.
Military industrial complex representative here. Did he just say that the US absolutely followed the Geneva Conventions to the letter? Does not realize that Wikileaks open our eyes to their inhumane activities? Sometimes I think these people are high during these interviews
I disagree with his assessment on Israel but I understand why he has that view. He’s a military guy so everything has a military solution to him. Thing is….he was wrong in Afghanistan/Iraq and is applying that flawed logic to Israel.
Alas, in the end, General Patraeus showed he wasn't intelligent ;-(
How they respond to their own tactics is always interesting. It's hard to know how people will respond to subversion and intimidation.
The keyword is "opportunity." Analyzing this kind of cutout is a necessity.
Peace is achieved thru deterrence. Not just diplomacy
@@Eagle1836 How do we deter corruption?
@@Jack-xc2ys Corruption is best handled thru freedom of the press. The fact that they countries that are causing the most problems do not have freedom of the press is the issue. Also here, the press has chose to be biased instead of even handed and dealing with truth.

Wish this interviewer, no matter what his belief's are, would stop interrupting... interview 101
I pity Petraeus. The interviewer, half his age, and with zero military experience, keeps cutting him. He doesn't care about the audience, he doesn't want to hear anything. His only aim is to impose his personal, shallow opinion. Last time I watch anything with this guy.
There’s always a thin line between the pacifist and the naive, similarly between the warmonger and the idiot. Fanatics are taking advantage of the information breakdown all over the world, while imbeciles are trying to take advantage of conflicts to make a dollar… it’s a complex landscape and navigating it’s not easy. Now looking at a conflict as black or white and ignoring the multitude of grey scales won’t give you an insight. So, listen even if you don’t agree… there is no way to have an understanding without being exposed to both sides.
PS: he could make better questions though… better than just arguing with your guest.
😂 Good. Nobody wants to listen to you or Petraeus justify failure and violence against defenceless populations of poor people on an unimaginable scale
I love general petraeus but the interviewer was totally biased and this was unwatchable

This guy could be the most disliked American general in Turkey because of his humiliating actions against Turkish soldiers. Turkey recognized Petraeus with the "sack incident" on July 4, 2003.

Yes. He's a war criminal responsible for carnage on an unimaginable scale.

Patreus is an example of a military system with too much money and very little sophistication. It's driven by profit (never ending wars) than solutions.
Profit? What are you on about? The defense industry and military have contracted dramatically since the end of the Cold War.
SOMETHING GOES AGAINT USA, ITS INTELLIGENCE FAILURE 😂😅😂
Who is the guy picking these people? Alistair Campbell and now this horror? Sack the person responsible immediately. I don't want to listen to war criminals on this channel.
And now this horror.....very funny description...thank you!
This “humble” 😂 individual should be trusted because he was Director of the CIA😂😂😂
Petreus was known by those who served with him as an opportunist and ruthless careerist. He treated subordinates terribly and karma caught up with him having to resign in disgrace.
The lack of sophistication, education, and insight reflected by the preponderance of comments here is disturbing. Petraeus is obviously quite the opposite. He's highly intelligent, educated, experienced, and articulate way beyond myself or any other commentors. Also keep in mind that he has vastly more access to information on which to form educated assessments than any but a very select few do. I seriously doubt if he is motivated by nefarious goals or acting callously without carefully considering alternatives to achieve optimal goals consistent with liberal democracy.
Tool of the highest order ☝️
Well, while he was making rational assessments of what Israel should do in their treatment of Palestinians he failed to mention that there is no chance in Hell that they'll start treating Gazans and West Bank denizens as human beings, worthy of life, liberty, and property. So his suggestions are hollow in the sense that he might as well have given Hannibal Lecter the advice of going on a diet.
The lack of sophistication, education and insight reflected in your comment is disturbing. Brainwashing, sycophancy and a very submissive thought process are responsible for these defects.
Disturbing support for a war criminal. Lacks education, sophistication and insight. Very macabre.
The lack of sophistication education and insight reflected by the above comment is disturbing. The level of grovelling sycophancy is astonishing. This is often the case with propaganda designed to achieve optimal goals consistent with the U.S establishment.
What a disappointment that such a great military man has such a lack of bandwidth.
No wonder they call it the American dream to be Americans. Nightmare for the rest
Clear and leave has been the US strategy since WWII. Culture and Education change is necessary
Autonomous drones are the future game changing tech on future battlefields. Because they are immune to jamming they are a league above current drone technology. They will likely only be used in actual wars with military targets when they are separate and distinguishable as valid targets by AI. I do not say this is morally acceptable I'm just saying it is inevitable. It is a foreseeable capability for very few countries, none of which are in the "global south."
Petraeus seems here more a party line politician than any sort of intellectual analyst, not least in his decided habit of asserting as fact what instead needs to be either argued for, or at least acknowledged as uncertain, contested, etc.
He talked as if the war inraq was a success. How could it be an example of good operations?
David Petrous has competently brought Abu Ghraib to the homeland.
He is also on record as admitting to the assas of Michael Hastings.
Why is this man given a platform?
“..the peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth; if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth produced by its collision with error.”
J.S. Mill in “On Liberty”
@@zacharyzito5040 Yes. Nobody is suggesting war criminals be silenced. I'm suggesting it's rather baffling that IAI invited on war criminals when they're stated aim is to platform 'cutting edge thinkers.'
Fine words from John Stuart Mill. Another 'liberal' who supported the slaughter of millions. He was a hypocrite that approved of Imperialism and backed the killing of Indians during the Indian Mutiny.
So it's extremely interesting that you think Petraeus, Alistair Campbell and Mill are men worth listening to and are in fact never silenced but given a voice constantly by other 'liberals' and sycophants. Interesting that you hold in high regard liars, hypocrites and men who are either guilty of or support mass murder. Bravo for being a brave, free thinker. ✊👏
@@zacharyzito5040 John Stuart Mill was a supporter of Imperialism. He supported the mass murder of civilians during the 'Indian Mutiny.' Fine words for a hypocrite.
Mill was another advocate for genocide
Mill was guilty of the peculiar evil of supporting genocide in India. Nobody is silencing the expression of an opinion. Indeed, he can't stop attempting to justify his banality.
CRIMINAL
" gangs, thugs, criminals " ? sounds like every town and city in the land of the free USA ,,,,
What a brilliant note to end that interview on. I was getting more and more depressed as the conversation pgrogressed, hearing the same jaded perspective of the adversarial mindset that we get from the american mainstream. To finish with the parameters needed for a different paradigm, and that coming from a military man, bizarrely gives me hope!
Indeed. It is bizarre. Very bizarre.
Tremendous restraint by Gen Petreaus in the face of the nonsense by the interviewer.

It's kinda funny you use the word 'restraint' in relation to Petraeus, a general who failed in every war he ever prosecuted and whose only tactic was to kill more and more people. He's a classic example of a war criminal. But not a very competent one.😂

I wished if you have asked the General's Scandal which was the reason they sacked him from CIA post?
Petraeus may have deserved to be sacked, but the reasons for his firing were entirely political.
I dis agree woth david patrious withoit realy invilved impoosivle to win ukraine war
Ww3 will be if we get involve.
Mr david is a war.monger.
We shoukd work towards peace
He never spoke aboit peace
It was not a military failure, but an economic disaster. Trillions dollars were spent there and in the moment US had retreated, the country went to dark ages tribal society again. It was not ready enough for democracy.
Maybe we shouldn't get involved in nation building 🤷🤷
Good interview, however maybe the interviewer should "stick to your guns" a bit more next time.
Continuing .. General Petraeus is a fine military officer and (most of) his thought process is absolutely necessary for the prevention of a global war.
However, Petraeus made at least three points that require careful management to avoid catastrophe :
#1) If his metric is "are we creating more baddies than we eliminate" Why isn't negotiation ever an option to him? Instead his goals seem to be always maximalist war objectives - or is that just posturing to prevent the enemy from probing our resolve?
At any rate I believe that consideration of #1) leads to #2) Why doesn't Ukraine use the billions to establish a *defensive* posture and a DMZ / No Fly Zone asap?
Also 2024 "Ai" makes *significant* errors so #3) Unmanned Ai algorithmically driven attack drones self-authorized to take lethal actions without a responsible human in the loop is (present day) certainly a horrible, irresponsible idea;
so whoever is advising him to say that is violating at least ethics and common sense,
if not also law.
War is Peace. Ignorance is Strength. Freedom is Slavery.
Oh look what I found. The AH who became a major general without seeing a single battle and then he had an affair and the dumbest scandal in cia history! Rofl
Patreus really schooled the interviewer, who is intellectually sloppy
Sloppy is understatement
It's intellectually sloppy to incorrectly spell the war criminal's name especially when you have a man crush on him
@@JohnnyComelately-eb5zv😂😂😂
The journalist suckszzzz
The interviewer needs more knowledge and self confidence.
The general is a prisoner of his own doctrine
Warpigs…
When the General was extrpolating the number of people killed and kidnaped on 10/7 compared to 9/11 (i.e., a considerably very large number) it would had been interesting if the interviewer had compared and extrapolated the number of people killed in Ghana to, say, our invasion of Iraq -- not that Iraq had anything to do with it. If we say the population of Iraq is 44M; and to round the numbers, let's say 40,000 (out of 2M) have been killed in Ghaza so far, it would be a 22 times magnitude. In other words, the extrapolatiom for our retaliation for 9/11 then would had been as if we killed about 880,000 poeple (about half million of which would had been women and children) in 6 months, which comparing the two areas population density would had required nuclear bombs, vs. the 2000 kg dumb bombs used in Ghaza. Extrapolation goes both ways.Just a though...
This was not the first attack by Hamas. For Hamas it is equivalent to a religious war. It isn't war as an extension of politics in the western sense.
The key idea for Israel is to deliver ever larger penalty per crime. Proportional response is about forgetting history.
Nobody dies in Gaza for existing. It's a war. Asymmetrical war.
Oct 7th was MURDER.
Leftists hand-wave murder in America but obsess over....war? In a battlespace?
Socialists have murdered more in USA since Oct 7th than Israelis in Gaza (0 murders)
This is what happens when Marxists take over. Of course the millions slaughtered by Socialists is never a problem.
Israel has a right to defend itself. Leftists think they have a right to to persecute Jews all over the US like Hitler.
The USA did not lose the war in Iraq. The was designed to creat chaos and it did; civil war and it did; ethnic cleansing and it did; Mullah rule and it did; expansion of the Shiite influence to destroy the balance that existed for hundreds of years and it did. The obstacle in Afghanistan was the mountainous nature of the country. You simply cannot succeed in Afghanistan until you raise the mountains, so it could qualify as a loss even though the USA a temporary fix.
How is his biographer?
No more sex??
He talks as if Iraq war is a success! Shame to use it as an example.

SELECTIVE MORALITY ALERT
Petraeus likes to hear himself talk.
The interviewer is faced with a wall of words, a kind of verbal diarrhea or an escape from words.
Pausing and meditating is not something that Petraeus does,
his world is built of words and is therefore limited and trapped in time...
This is so sad,
Psychopaths are in charge.
You need to post how much he get from aipac 😂
Put your drink down,sit, and think about this:
How would you like to have China,Russia,Iran

That is America's s approach since WWII,and
saying :" We are the good guys" when you
basically replace laws by RULES( Do as I say,
not as I do) does not look really convincing
when you basically do everything that benefits
you and you only.
