Engrossing history of targeted assassinations by Israeli intelligence services. It's hard to know who to trust when it comes to books written about Israel in terms of the author's slant. Bergman is a little bit to the left - just enough to be mildly annoying at times, particularly after 2000 and he finishes the book with a three page screed against Netanyahu that is really out of place here. Still, clear explanations with a cast of hundreds of players. Worth reading.
