Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Criticizes Israel's spy agency, arguing it has helped drug traffickers in order to finance its operations, and acted in its own, rather than Israel's interest

Product Description

In this expose of the Israeli spy organization, ex-agent Victor Ostrovsky presents an insider's view of two decades of the Mossad's covert activities around the world. Amidst revelations of international political scandals, he gives an account of the scope and depth of the Mossad's influence, including the rearing and training of Jewish communities in the USA, Europe and South America in secret "self-defence" units. He also offers evidence of the organization's use of the drugs trade in order to pay the enormous costs of its far-flung clandestine operations, and portrays a network that has grown dangerously out of control, as internal squabbles have led to terrorist escapes and the pursuit of "policies" at odds with the interests of the state of Israel.
