The Secret War with Iran by Ronen Bergman

The Secret War with Iran by Ronen Bergman

For twenty-six years, Iran has waged an international terrorist war while the intelligence services of the West, led by Mossad and the CIA, have waged a relentless, mostly clandestine counter-jihad in return. Though Iran has become a quietly looming threat, little has been revealed about this intelligence-based war.

Now, Ronen Bergman, Israel's leading reporter and analyst of intelligence affairs, has written a full account of this secret war. He connected the dots of the long history of Iranian backed terrorist attacks, and revealed for the first time many classified operations against the Iranian terrorist network, including details about collaborations between Israel's Mossad and the CIA and FBI; thrilling Mossad operations, the successful recruitment of top insiders of Iranian intelligence, who have disclosed a wealth of information about Iran's nuclear program as well as it's terrorist activities; and the use of ultra-sophisticated surveillance equipment to penetrate and damage Iranian targets. From the Iranian proxy Hizbollah's planning of terrorists attacks from apartments in New York City, to Iran's training of an army of work Iraqi insurgents in the techniques of suicide bombing and the making of improvised explosive devises, he showed Iran has steadily waged war against the West.

Ronen Bergman is a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine and the senior correspondent for military and intelligence affairs for Yedioth Ahronoth, Israel's largest daily paid newspaper. He covers intelligence, national security, terrorism, and nuclear concerns. Bergman is the author of five successful nonfiction books in Hebrew, as well as The Hidden War with Iran, which was published by Free Press in the United States. Bergman has received the Sokolow Prize, Israel's most prestigious journalism award, as well as the B'nai B'rith International Press Award. He graduated with honors from the University of Haifa School of Law and clerked in the Attorney General's Office before becoming a member of the Israeli bar. He got a master's in international relations and a PhD in history from Cambridge University, where he also received a Chevening Scholarship from the British Foreign Office.
