Speakers:
Join Hudson Senior Fellow Jonathan Schachter for a discussion with Israel-based journalist Yonah Jeremy Bob on his new book, coauthored with Ilan Evyatar, Target Tehran.
About the Book
Target Tehran describes how Israel was able to promote the normalization with Arab states like Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates by using its military might to thwart Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
The writers recount the shadow between Iran and Israel—which sometimes operated in conjunction with the United States—by drawing on interviews with confidential Israeli and US sources, including from the Mossad and the Central Intelligence Agency.
About the Author
Yonah Jeremy Bob is the senior military and intelligence analyst as well as the book review editor for the Jerusalem Post. Hailing originally from Baltimore, Maryland, Yonah has close connections with many Israeli intelligence figures and previously worked in the Israeli military international law division, at the Israeli Embassy to the United Nations, and in the Israeli Justice Ministry. He is the author of Justice in the West Bank? And the editor and translator of A Raid on the Red Sea, an intelligence thriller whose principal author is Amos Gilboa, a former Israel Defense Forces deputy chief of intelligence.
