En savoir plus sur le livre
Mossad is recognized as one of the most effective organizations in combating terrorism, yet Israel has repeatedly endangered its agents and soldiers through misguided intelligence interventions. The targeted elimination of Palestinian leaders has not reduced terrorism; instead, incidents have become increasingly lethal, suggesting that Israeli intelligence actions may have exacerbated global terrorist activities. Ami Pedahzur, an expert on terror and political extremism, critiques Israel's heavy reliance on elite intelligence units, deeming it fundamentally flawed. His work combines memoir, academic research, and diverse sources to examine Israel's historical encounters with terrorism, including hostage rescue missions, the Lebanon wars, and the challenges in the West Bank and Gaza. Pedahzur offers a transparent view of Israel's counterterrorism efforts, detailing both successes and failures, and analyzing the factors influencing these outcomes. From this analysis, he proposes a strategy for future confrontations that could be beneficial not only for Israel but also for other nations employing similar intelligence-driven approaches.
