The Italian political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli once said that every man is potentially corruptible, even if they are good and well educated. This quote, “People can be easily corrupted,” printed on the inside cover page of this fascinating biography of the current prime minister of Israel, Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu. Nowadays, when Mr. Netanyahu is facing allegations of being involved in bribery, fraud, and breach of trust, Caspit's book is a rare window into the world of the famous politician, which many relate to as the unrivaled leader of Israel. However, something happened to him during his 10-years term as Prime Minister, and he became – in Caspit's words – the modern version of Louis the Great – He is the state, the state's best interest is Netanyahu's best interest, and without him the country of Israel is hopeless.
