Publisher's Summary

1972. The Munich Olympics. Palestinian members of the Black September group murder 11 Israeli athletes. Nine hundred million people watch the crisis unfold on television, witnessing a tragedy that inaugurates the modern age of terror.

Back in Israel, Prime Minister Golda Meir vows to track down those responsible and, in Menachem Begin's words, "run these criminals and murderers off the face of the earth". A secret Mossad unit is mobilized, a list of targets drawn up. Thus begins the Israeli response, a mission that unfolds not over months but over decades. The Mossad has never spoken about this operation. No one has known the real story. Until now.

In this riveting account, Aaron Klein peels back the layers of myth and misinformation about the "shadow war" against Black September and other terrorist groups.

Meh

I read Vengeance by George Jonas about 35 years ago. (Nonfiction) It's POV was from that of the operatives that carried out the assassinations. It was much more gripping. This one was okay. More political and less action. Quite informative. Unfortunately Vengeance is not available on Audible but if you really want to delve into this, I highly recommend it.
