Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Atef Bseiso, a Palestinian who had been living in Tunis for the past ten years, was the Palestine Liberation Organization's liaison officer. He had been sent to Paris to meet with Israeli officials. Shabtai Shavit, the head of Israel's Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, received a brief message about Bseiso: he was in the Méridien Montparnasse. #2 The Israelis waited outside the hotel, ambush style, for Bseiso to return.
When he did, they assumed he would go out for dinner, and when he returned, tired and contented, they would act. #3 Atef Bseiso, the head of the DST, was a target because of his role in the 1972 Munich massacre. He went out to dinner with his Lebanese friend, and two Mossad agents shot him in the head. The assassins and their backup swiftly made their way down the street. #4 The assassination of Bseiso shocked the Israeli government and media.
The Mossad was accused of the hit, and Yasser Arafat said the Israeli Mossad was responsible for the assassination.
