Mossad
The secrets behind Mossad, the world’s most respected and enigmatic Secret Service Organization This book tells what should have been known and isn't - that Israel's hidden force is as formidable as its recognised physical strength. - Shimon Peres, President of Israel Mossad vividly brings alive a boots-on-the-ground approach to the most dangerous missions of the 60-year history of the world-renowned security agency including: the capture of Eichmann in Argentina and smuggling him out of Buenos Aires as an El Al crewman, the eradication of Black September, the destruction of the Syrian nuclear facility and the elimination of key Iranian nuclear scientists. Mossad also reveals in dramatic detail how Israelis purloined the text of Kruschchev’s secret speech denouncing Stalin’s atrocities, and follows the career of Meir Dagan from his ‘James Bond’ days as an Israeli commando through his memorable career as head of Mossad.
Mossad
Mossad is universally recognised as the greatest intelligence service in the world. It is also the most enigmatic, shrouded in a thick veil of secrecy. Many of its enthralling feats are still unknown; most of its heroes remain unnamed. From the kidnapping of Eichmann in Argentina and the systematic tracking down of those responsible for the Munich massacre to lesser-known episodes of astonishing espionage, this extraordinary book describes the dramatic, largely secret history of Mossad and the Israeli intelligence community. Examining the covert operations, the targeted assassinations and the paramilitary activities within and outside Israel, Michael Bar-Zohar and Nissim Mishal detail the great stories of Mossad and reveal the personal tales of some of the best Mossad agents and leaders to serve their country.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 1971, the Israeli Defense Forces launched Operation Chameleon, in which they killed the leaders of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a terrorist group. The operation was planned by Meir Dagan, a young commander who had posed as Lebanese terrorists and met with the terrorist leaders. #2 Dagan was a stocky young man who had applied to join the most prestigious Israeli commando unit, Sayeret Matkal. He was sent to the Gaza strip in 1971, where he created the first undercover Israeli commando unit. They operated in Arab disguise to move freely in Arab crowds and reach their targets undetected. #3 Dagan was a man haunted by the suffering of his family and the Jews during the Holocaust. He dedicated his life to the defense of the newborn State of Israel. #4 Dagan was a retired general when he was asked to be the Mossad chief by Prime Minister Arik Sharon. The Mossad was losing steam, and several failures in the preceding years had dealt severe blows to its prestige.
