Brilliantly assembled. Striking. Edwin Black has once again not only recorded history but predicted it. Black began researching and writing Israel Strikes Iran years before the strike took place, presciently envisaging that Iran’s nuclear ambitions would eventually be ended by Israeli air power. As he has done over and over again in his compendium of award-winning historical narratives, Black has brilliantly assembled the striking backstory that ultimately led up to Israel’s stunning Operation Rising Lion.

Unparalleled sourcing, analytical wizardry. One of the first journalists to understand the gravity of this story and to share its urgency with the world is Edwin Black. For more than two decades, he has applied his considerable investigative skills, unparalleled sourcing, and analytical wizardry to alerting his readers to the developments and dangers along the way … Israel Strikes Iran tells the true story of how we got to the point of confrontation, what happened along the way, and perhaps what will happen in the future.
