History: The ultimate shadow strike to safeguard Israel
[IsraelTimes] Yaakov Katz writes a page-turning account of the never-before-told story of how Israel took out Syria’s nuclear reactor"Daddy, how do you know that Israel won’t die?" my 8-year son recently asked me, looking very scared and worried. He had come home from school that day, where he’d heard about rockets raining down from Gazoo into Israeli cities. He was grappling in his own way with the fragility of Israel’s existence. I told him that Israel would always be here for us because of the countless people who would give their soul and life to protect the Jewish state and the values it holds dear. Yaakov Katz, the Israeli-American editor-in-chief of the Jerusalem Post, provides an extremely clear answer to my son’s question in his latest book, Shadow Strike: Inside Israel’s Secret Mission to Eliminate Syrian Nuclear Power. This exposé provides the full story behind Israel’s operation to destroy the al-Kibar nuclear reactor, which was built under the veil of secrecy and ultimately destroyed by the IDF in September 2007. Full of espionage, political courage and psychological warfare, this book is sure to thrill both the casual James Bond fan and the most serious followers of Middle Eastern politics.
