"We are looking down the barrel of World War III unless the world wakes up."
Efraim Halevy, former Mossad chief
Created in 1951 to ensure an embattled Israel's future, the Mossad has been responsible for many of the most audacious and thrilling feats of espionage, counter-terrorism and assassination ever ventured. Based on interviews with Mossad agents, informants and spymasters, and drawing from classified documents and top-secret sources, Gideon's Spies is a riveting inside account of perhaps the world's foremost intelligence agency.
Published to mark the 60th anniversary of the creation of Israel, this brand new edition of the international best seller has been fully updated and greatly expanded, and features previously unpublished revelations about recent dramatic events in the Middle East. Gideon's Spies portrays a highly imaginative but utterly ruthless organisation that has vowed to "fight fire with fire" in a world increasingly plagued by 'Holy War' and international terrorism.
Why did the Mossad make contact with Princess Diana's chauffeur? Did they really assassinate Robert Maxwell? Why did they use explicit phone calls to Monica Lewinsky to blackmail Bill Clinton? Why did both Clinton and Bush ignore clear warnings from the Mossad about 9/11?
Did Mossad agents buy nuclear materials from the Russian Mafia? How did they help MI5 foil the plot to bring down seven transatlantic flights from Heathrow? Why did they suspect that Dr David Kelly was in contact with sinister figures from the world of germ warfare? How did the Mossad destroy a nuclear weapons complex in Syria? And how did they finally manage to assassinate the world's second most wanted terrorist?
Gideon's Spies explores the answers to all these questions and more.
