In this clip Tom and the interviewer discuss the significance of the action at At-Tiri. Tom references a publication by Robert Fisk where he said this was the point where the De Facto Forces (DFF) and Israeli Defence Forces knew they couldn't mess with UNIFIL anymore. He describes it as 'a time that the Irish grew up and UNIFIL grew up.'
