Note to self: Not all free eBooks worth reading!
Don’t be misled by the title of this book because the only thing attractive about this book is the title, which exactly why I decided to read the book in the first place. Bad move.
The author’s failure to do due diligent on this book is unforgivable, the end-product is nothing more than a hurried work of high school project on a topic that the author has no in-depth knowledge of, cut and paste type of research that disregard the need to add bibliography on the sources of information. It’s important to note, you can’t write on Mossad and failed to mention Adolf Eichmann’s capture from Argentina, the daring smuggles to Israel and the subsequent trial in Jerusalem that led to his death for his war crime against the Jewish people during the WWII in Europe. This to me is a good indication that the author isn’t familiar with the topic.
If you’re interested on Mossad and/or Israeli’s secret service activities read this book instead: Rise And Kill First: The Inside Story and Secret Operations of Israel’s Assassination Program by Ronen Bergman.
