Mark Wales is a former SAS soldier who served multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, now providing strategic analysis on the unfolding Middle East conflict and Australia's defence vulnerabilities.

Wales breaks down the current Iran operation, explaining how it differs from previous Middle East campaigns and why traditional military technology still requires boots on the ground. He discusses Australia's concerning defence gaps, from our 35-day fuel reserves to our minimal submarine fleet, and explains how geopolitical tensions could cascade into a broader global conflict involving multiple fronts. We get into:
• The strategic differences between Al-Qaeda and Taliban operations in Afghanistan 
• Why Iran's nuclear capabilities represent a regional tipping point 
• How Israel's long-term intelligence operations enabled recent strikes 
• Australia's critical defence vulnerabilities and fuel supply risks 
• The role of robotics and AI in modern warfare 
• China's military capabilities and Pacific theatre implications 
• Why current conflicts could escalate into multi-front warfare
