  • Description

    Gideon's Spies: The Secret History Of The Mossad is a revelation that is presented by the author after speaking to a number of Mossad operatives, Mossad being the secret service of Israel.

    Summary Of The Book

    Gordon Thomas is a Welsh journalist, and he claims in Gideon's Spies: The Secret History Of The Mossad, that the Mossad, Israel’s espionage service, knew long before Kenneth Starr about the relationship between Bill Clinton and his intern Monica Lewinsky. The book states that the Mossad had tapes worth more than thirty hours’ worth of conversation between Clinton and Lewinsky that were suggestive.

    Their denials notwithstanding, the book raised a lot of questions, and made a lot of bold statements about the Mossad in general. For example, Gideon's Spies: The Secret History Of The Mossad claims that the Mossad was responsible for the accident that killed Princess Diana. It claims that their driver was pressurized to the breaking point by them. It also says that the Mossad supposedly murdered Robert Maxwell, the publishing tycoon.

    What other sensational charges are levelled against the Mossad in Gideon's Spies: The Secret History Of The Mossad? Are these charges explained, or backed up with facts and conclusive proof? What has been the reaction to the bureaucracies around the world to these accusations?. The reaction to this book was aggressively in the negative, both in America and Israel. One American administrative official even went so far as to suggest that booksellers ought to sell the book under the Fiction shelves, and the Israeli Prime Minister’s spokesman called the book “unmitigated drivel”.

    Gideon's Spies: The Secret History of Mossad.

    Simply un-put-downable. Superb. The author has brought out not only the history of Mossad but has also quoted various incidences which are thrilling. The planning and execution of the assignments done by Mossad officials is par excellence. However there are also cases of failures which are part and parcel of any intelligence operation. Further, the power structure within the organization is not immune from politics which has led to unceremonious exit of some top Mossad bosses. Nevertheless i...

    A very good read -- Nice presentation by Gordon Thomas

    I agree with previous reviewers' remark that Indians love to read about Israel and Mossad. This book serves tasty treat for such seekers.
    Its like a suspense thriller : You have to flip few pages and then you will hardly get a chance to put it down. You will know a lot about Mossad and Israel's intelligence gathering network.

    This book will also provide sufficient stuff (evidences ? ) to get into conspiracies behind killings of Lady Dianna, Robert Maxwell, Yitzhak Rabin (Israel's PM), JFK...

    In depth coverage on the World's most secretive and brutal intelligence agency.

    Having been a big fan of the Mossad for the past 15 years, i have always been interested to garner as much info on this secretive agency as possible. I Looked up the internet, saw movies on their great exploits but was never satisfied with the content. The reason being most of the information was highly classified while some of it were not credible at all. However Gordon Thomas's masterpiece of a book has changed all that. The operational details of certain missions backed up by solid facts, ...

    A must read book

    I found it to be very gripping from the first page itself. Right from explaining the origins to what Mossad is today. Very nicely written, it draws the reader into it. Also it is nicely paced to enable deeper understanding of the topic.
    All and all I must recommend this for readers who want to understand the enigma called MOSSAD. In short a must read.

    Most Stunning Narration EVER!

    I'm quite late in adding my review. I am a hardcore espionage lover and hold a very keen interest in international politics, crime operations, international security and business affairs. I have read dozens of books on these subjects but have never come across a narration as fantastic as Gordon's. This book educates you beyond seas. The content of the book smoothly envelops you, so much that you'd dream about it. I did. With shocking revelations, this book also defines a nation's shocking pro...

    Superb Book

    This book, as it says unputdownable, so it is. I like the pace of the writing. It keeps you gripped and your curiosity grows. Much to learn from Mosad's operation which is far nuanced that 007!!!
    However, the author makes some diversions at the end of each chapter, which may prove to be a distraction but all in all a good read..thumbs up.
    Flipkart delivered this book within 48 hours..Great job guys, you are becoming my one stop shopping destination. Also learning the fact that patience bears ...

    must READ for ISRAEL & MOssad enthusiasts and

    must READ for ISRAEL & MOssad enthusiasts and students of strategic studies.
    a good way to use the book would be to google the names of the people you have never heard about(for amateur strategic analysts).

    A great book for any reader .
    I loved it

    JAW DROPPING!

    For those interested in West Asian/Middle Eastern affairs this book is a must and for those who are die hard fans of the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) or Mossad, its better you die if you don't have this behemoth of a book.

    This is the only book which gives an in-depth analysis of the workings of the super secretive agency Mossad. It is also the only book which provides a complete history of the Mossad and is unrivaled. In my early teens my father had told me about Mossad and since then I hav...

    The ultimate book on mossad operations

    Gordon Thomas has worked overtime to fetch meticulous details of mossad operations. I have read several books on Israel and Mossad operations, this simply stands out due to the scrupulous details that gordon provides us about each mossad operations. I found a few grammar errors but again the are easily subdued by the quality of content. The book includes details about most operations including the assassination of princess Diana, yes assassination, the Promis software, The MiG 21 deflection, ...
