Shadow Strike: Inside Israel's Secret Mission to Eliminate Syrian Nuclear Power

Shadow Strike is a gripping and informative account of how Israel stopped Syria from becoming a global nuclear nightmare.

Written by award-winning journalist Yaakov Katz, this book provides an inside look at the espionage, political courage, military might, and psychological warfare behind Israel's daring operation to destroy a North Korean nuclear reactor in the Syrian desert.

With exclusive access to top government officials and military leaders, Katz reveals the debates between President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Israeli Prime Minister Olmert, as well as the diplomatic and military planning that took place in the Oval Office, the Prime Minister's Office in Jerusalem, and inside the IDF's underground war room beneath Tel Aviv.

Shadow Strike is a must-read for anyone interested in international relations, Middle East politics, or the fight against nuclear proliferation.
