Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel's Targeted Assassinations by Ronen Bergman

4.0

As a historical overview of the of Mossad and Shin Bet this book succeeds magnificently. No stones are left unturned when Bergman investigates the sensitive and complex topic of the book. Some sections come of as a bit dry but by organising chapters according to major events rather than keeping to a strict chronological expose it becomes more digestible. I learned a lot by reading this book, not only regarding the focus topic, but also middle eastern history and politics which is a bit of a blank spot for me personally. Would recommend to anyone interested in history and current events.
