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.
