DESCRIPTION: The 30 boldest missions of the Israeli Special Forces since the inception of Israel. No Mission is Impossible is an episodic treatment of the greatest missions of the Israeli Special Forces, characterized by its lead piece, an intriguing story of the rescue of 200 hijacked airline passengers at Entebbe, Uganda. This book is something of a sequel to Bar-Zohar's previous work, Mossad which investigated the world's most enigmatic intelligence service. A good number of the major characters in No Mission is Impossible have ended up in significant high offices in Israel, becoming Presidents and Prime Ministers.

It tells mostly of victories, but also some awful failures. Spotlighted too are the lives and accomplishments of Israel's heroes, Moshe Dayan, Ariel Sharon, the brothers Netanyahu, Ehud Barak, Avigdor Kahalani, as well as the tough and fearsome decisions of its Defense ministers Ben-Gurion, Shimon Peres, a
