This document appears to be a page from a memoir (likely by Ehud Barak, given the context of Sayeret Matkal) included in House Oversight evidence files. It details the historical planning of an early Sayeret Matkal intelligence mission into the Syrian Golan Heights, highlighting the anxiety of Israeli leadership following previous failures like the Uri Ilan suicide. The text focuses on the selection of team leader Ya'akov 'Tubul' Tal and the narrator's appointment as his deputy due to Tubul's upcoming academic commitments at the Technion.
