Summary
The Mossad is widely recognized today as the best intelligence service in the world. It is also the most enigmatic, shrouded in secrecy. In Mossad, authors Michael Bar-Zohar and Nissim Mishal take us behind the closed curtain with riveting, eye-opening, boots-on-the-ground accounts of the most dangerous, most crucial missions in the agency’s sixty-year history. These are real Mission: Impossible true stories brimming with high-octane action—from the breathtaking capture of Nazi executioner Adolf Eichmann to the recent elimination of key Iranian nuclear scientists.
I gotta give props to Israel's Mossad for stepping up to the plate and tackling the threats that jeopardize the freedom we all hold dear. This book will definitely make you question the trustworthiness of newspaper articles and reporters when they're dishing out stories about bombings, WMDs, airline 'accidents,' and all that jazz. The writing is top-notch and the storytelling is on point.
The stories showcased in this book are absolutely mind-blowing. It's expertly written and narrated, making it an incredibly enjoyable listen. Without a doubt, one of the most captivating books I've come across recently. It fearlessly reveals the reality of what goes on behind the scenes in the world.
If you're looking for a book that tells the tale of a group of heroes taking down the villains, then this is the one for you. The Mossad carries out one brilliant mission after another, eliminating enemies and saving the innocent. It's not a deep dive into the complexities of Israeli politics, but rather a collection of thrilling adventures that offer a glimpse into the world of the Mossad.
Wow, I gotta say, this audiobook really caught me off guard. It's seriously tough to stay focused on the deliberately subpar narration that screams "Hey, I'm a narrator!" But you know what? It's kind of astonishing. The way this guy stretches out one syllable into two, and turns two into a whole five syllables, it's just mind-blowing. I gotta be honest though, I'd give this one a pass.
The author frequently refers to various Palestinian groups as terrorists, even though they haven't been officially designated as such. I was expecting the author to discuss the Gaza wars, particularly highlighting the significant number of women and children among the Palestinian casualties. In the 2014 war, as reported by the UN, out of the 2,100 Palestinians who lost their lives, approximately 1,450 were civilians. In contrast, on the Israeli side, there were around 70 casualties, with 63 being soldiers.
This audiobook is packed with enough thrilling content to fill ten movies. It's incredibly captivating to uncover all the intricate details of these missions, long after they've made the news. I highly suggest giving it a listen.
The stories in this audiobook were really captivating. Some of them I was already familiar with, but there were many new ones that I found quite interesting. The authors made an effort to provide the historical context for each mission, including the Mossad leader and the Prime Minister at the time. This is actually the second book I've read on this topic, the first one being "Gideon's Spies," and I still found it enjoyable. I don't have much knowledge about the correct pronunciation of words in this particular culture, but I'm pretty confident that Simon Wiesenthal's first name doesn't sound exactly like "Simone" Signoret or "Simone" De Beauvoir. Definitely not! Nevertheless, these mispronunciations didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the book, they just made me wonder a bit.
