Today we welcome Dr. Yagil Henkin to the NEMYRIALIVE channel. Dr. Yagil Henkin is a military historian, lecturer at the "Israel Defense Forces Command and General Staff College", and research fellow at the "Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security". Dr. Henkin specializes in modern military strategy and is the author of several books on military history. We discussed how the war in Ukraine shattered the myth of the end of industrial warfare, why technology is outpacing strategy, why NATO should learn from the Ukrainians, and what "victory" means in modern warfare.

- what if the biggest illusion of modern war was that industrial warfare was over?
- technology is evolving faster than strategy
- is modern warfare just WWI in disguise?
- God may be on the side of the big battalion, but who commands them now?
- adapt or vanish: the new law of attrition wars
- maybe it’s NATO, not Ukraine, that needs retraining
- tanks were supposed to die out. Instead, they reinvented themselves
- every magic weapon has a very short life before it stops doing magic
- weapons are copied, but command culture can’t be cloned
- salami tactics never went out of style
- victory today depends on how small your goals are
