Résumé
Mossad: Civilizations of the Middle East, pulls you into the hidden world where politics, faith, and espionage collide. From David Ben-Gurion's early calls to arms to Golda Meir's covert meetings in the run-up to statehood, the book traces how a small, exposed nation stitched together one of the world's most feared intelligence services. Writing it felt like chasing ghosts through history - the Mossad's origins were ragged and improvisational, yet shot through with fierce determination.
At the heart of this story stands Isser Harel, the brilliant and relentless spymaster who turned vision into action and forged the Mossad into legend. Under his leadership the agency hunted Adolf Eichmann across continents and finally seized him in Buenos Aires - a moment that forced the world to reckon with moral courage in the shadow of the Holocaust. You'll also meet Eli Cohen, the "Prince of Spies, " whose double life in Damascus ended in tragic execution, and Wolfgang Lotz, "Tel Aviv's Eye in Cairo, " whose glamorous, high-risk double life balanced seduction with deadly consequence.
Each mission in this book peels back another layer of human daring. In "Operation Diamond", Israeli operatives didn't simply "steal a Soviet MiG-21" - they engineered the defection of an Iraqi pilot and brought a Soviet-designed MiG-21 out of Iraqi service into Israeli hands. Elsewhere, in "Israel's Secret Bomb", the story pivots on Mordechai Vanunu, the technician who exposed the secrets of the Dimona nuclear facility and paid a terrible personal price for speaking out.
And in "The Hunt for Black September", Mossad's relentless pursuit after the Munich massacre unfolds as both a quest for justice and a grim ledger of moral cost. These pages beat with real danger and moral consequence - every order, every operation carried human consequences. Later chapters stretch Mossad's reach across oceans and decades: the lightning daring of "Operation Thunderbolt" at Entebbe, the hush-and-flight rescue of "Operation Moses" that carried Ethiopian Jews out of famine and conflict.
You'll walk the tangled lines of "The Handshake and the Bullet" and "When Peace Turned to Poison", stories where gestures of reconciliation sit uneasily beside acts of violence. And you'll trace the shifting geopolitical sands that raised fraught questions about figures like Bin Laden and Saddam - questions that force the same, unsettling inquiry to the surface: how far can a nation go to protect itself without losing its soul?As the world steps into the digital age, chapters like "Assassination in Dubai" and "Mossad and the Modern World" trace how the agency has evolved - from coded whispers in dim rooms to the silent, sprawling realm of cyber shadows.
This isn't merely a story of spies and guns; it's about survival, about faith, and about that fragile razor's edge between hope and fear. Writing it has been a journey through some of history's most secret corners - one I now invite you to join me on.
