Hopeless Wars. The director of Israel's most secret intelligence service tells
14.99 €
Being a born fighter, the author of this book has always accepted the challenge, not shying away from taking part in the most desperate battles and the most "SECRET WARS", be it the uncompromising struggle to leave the USSR for Israel, the famous Doomsday War, which Yaakov Kedmi fought in Ehud Barak's battalion, in the same tank with the future prime minister, or his work in Israel's most secretive intelligence service, Nativ, which is considered "a kind of closed club of the ruling elite of the Jewish State". He emerged victorious from all these battles, proving once again that there are no "hopeless wars" and that a man "who does not bow down to anyone or anything" is capable of accomplishing the impossible. Yaakov Kedmi managed not only to escape from behind the Iron Curtain himself, but also, as director of Nativa, to achieve a radical change in Israeli policy - thanks in large part to his efforts, the mass exodus of Jews from the USSR in the early 1990s took place. Yaakov Kedmi told about all this - about resistance to the Soviet regime and inter-institutional struggle in the Israeli establishment, about the victorious Doomsday War and command errors that led to unjustified losses, about blatant cases of discrimination against Soviet Jews in Israel and the need for decisive reforms that should lead the country out of the systemic crisis - in his memoirs, not avoiding the most acute topics and not afraid to raise the most painful questions, the main of which is: "Is the current Jewish state worthy of its people?"
