Striking Back: Library Edition

Product Description 1972. The Munich Olympics. Palestinian members of the Black September group murder eleven Israeli athletes. Nine-hundred-million people watch the crisis unfold on television, witnessing a tragedy that inaugurates the modern age of terror. Back in Israel, Prime Minister Golda Meir vows to track down those responsible and, in Menachem Begin’s words, “run these criminals and murderers off the face of the earth.” A secret Mossad unit is mobilized, a list of targets drawn up. Thus begins the Israeli response, a mission that unfolds not over months but over decades. The Mossad has never spoken about this operation. No one has known the real story, until now. In this riveting account Aaron Klein peels back the layers of myth and misinformation about the “shadow war” against Black September and other terrorist groups. Review "A real thriller that will unnerve as much as it captivates."-- "Rocky Mountain News""Gratitude is due to Mr. Klein for his painstaking...book, the best one could possibly hope for."-- "Wall Street Journal""Gut-wrenching...offers new insights and a surprisingly objective and candid examination...Rudnicki reads with palpable revulsion at the bungling and indifference of the German government...[his] voice percolates with outrage and disbelief when Klein reveals how Israel's longstanding campaign for revenge has at times resulted in the deaths of innocent people."-- "AudioFile""This is a thriller, a page-turner, a probing look into the inner workings of the assassination squads that Israel mobilized after the Munich massacre."-- "David K. Shipler, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Arab and Jew""Told in remarkable detail...Klein's account is well researched and highly valuable...a necessary read for anyone interested in Israeli history and politics as well as the birth of modern counter-terrorism."-- "Publishers Weekly " About the Author Aaron J.

From AudioFile STRIKING BACK is a gut-wrenching examination of the 1972 Munich Olympics, in which 11 Israeli athletes were murdered by Palestinian members of the Black September terrorist group. It offers new insights and a surprisingly objective and candid examination of Israel's efforts to eliminate the perpetrators of this tragedy. Stefan Rudnicki's narration accentuates Aaron Klein's riveting text. When discussing the events in Munich, Rudnicki reads with palpable revulsion at the bungling and indifference of the German government before, during, and after the massacre. Changing gears, Rudnicki's voice percolates with outrage and disbelief when Klein reveals how Israel's longstanding campaign for revenge has at times resulted in the deaths of innocent people.

Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA

This is the book the CIA does not want you to read. For the last sixty years, the CIA has maintained a formidable reputation in spite of its terrible record, never disclosing its blunders to the American public. It spun its own truth to the nation while reality lay buried in classified archives. Now, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter Tim Weiner offers a stunning indictment of the CIA, a deeply flawed organization that has never deserved America's confidence. 
Legacy of Ashes is based on more than 50,000 documents, primarily from the archives of the CIA. Everything is on the record. There are no anonymous sources, no blind quotations. With shocking revelations that will make headlines, Tim Weiner gets at the truth and tells how the CIA's failures have profoundly jeopardized our national security.
