Barak discusses his military background as a political asset, the alienation of some Labor party establishment figures like Haim Ramon, and the assembly of his campaign team, including Bougie Herzog, Tal Silberstein, and Aliza Goren. The page is stamped with a House Oversight Committee Bates number.
