The Sword of Freedom

Israel has always won. They are winning now. And they must always win in the future. In The Sword of Freedom , former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen pulls back the curtain on Israel’s success in the face of never-ending war. Cohen has played a pivotal role in shaping Israel’s modern defense strategy. Blending personal stories and the nation’s history, he offers a rare glimpse into how Israel has defied existential threats and built a cutting-edge defense system. Now, he reveals how Israel always finds a way to win, as well as: · The secret to Israel’s success as a nation and military power · The future of Gaza and Hamas · What it takes to be in the Mossad · The mistakes Westerners make when they look at the Middle East · How Mossad helps counter terrorism around the world · How the art of spycraft has changed in the advent of AI and social media · What Donald Trump’s second presidency means for Israel In today’s volatile world Israel must remain adaptable and resolute to survive. Cohen explores how Israel achieves this: by questioning all intelligence, prioritizing human ingenuity, cooperating with other countries (even ones you might not expect), and ensuring enemies fear defeat before battles begin. As David Ben-Gurion observed, “History is not written, it is created.” From thrilling covert operations to strategies that safeguard borders, The Sword of Free­dom demonstrates how Israel’s transformation from a vulnerable state to a global power was no accident.
