Israel's Army (Power Series) 1 review
Samuel M. Katz
Presidio Pr, 1990
Great Insider's Look at the IDF
Samuel Katz is the IDF Guru. He served in the IDF during the War in Lebanon and then left the service to pursue a writing career. His wife is a sabra (native-born Israeli) so he has access to Hebrew research sources, which give him an edge up on many non-Hebrew-speaking IDF researchers. This book is an exceptionally easy look into the difficult-to-research and security-conscious Israeli Defence ...

Relentless Pursuit: The DSS and the Manhunt for the Al-Qaeda Terrorists 17 reviews
Samuel M. Katz
Forge Books, 2003
A Classic True Account of America's Global Heroes
This is the first book to truly talk of the efforts of DSS, the State Department's little known yet all-important law enforcement entity. While other books about America's war against terrorism have focused on the shortcomings of the CIA and FBI in stopping al-Qaeda in its tracks, this book focuses on America's first true victory in this bloody struggle--the capture of World Trade Center bombing ...

Jerusalem or Death: Palestinian Terrorism (Terrorist Dossiers)1 review
Samuel M. Katz
Lerner Publishing Group, 2003
Great modern history
Samuel Katz' rendition of history from 1896 forward is superb. The book contains many photographs which belie the insistence of Arab nations that Palestinians were peaceful and driven from their land. Photographs of the Arab revolt in 1936 show quite the opposite.
Jewish farmers were unarmed and isolated, and remained unprotected by British troops then occupying the land, ostensibly with the ...

Israeli Special Forces (Power Series)2 reviews
Samuel M. Katz
Motorbooks Intl, 1993
Samuel Katz gets the info you won't see otherwise
Short and sweet, Samuel Katz is the man when it comes to finding information on special forces, especially the elite Israeli units. Alongside the British SAS, the Israeli special forces are the busiest in the world and in this book you get a clear, concise view of all of the major units that are out there. Simply put, this information is nowhere else. All of his books are worth tracking down ...

The NIGHT RAIDERS3 reviews
Samuel M. Katz
Pocket, 1997
Amazing
The Shayetot (naval recon. commandos) are amazing. They are the best naval special force operators in the world. The Navy Seals and the SBS never come close to the Shayetot's optempo and DAILY combat experiences. Sure, it was extremely hurt to remember the debacle of the batmen's ambush in South Lebanon in 1997. But the debacle had to do with the faculty and compromised intelligences. ...

Jihad in Brooklyn7 reviews
Onyx, 2007
good case against illegal immigration
Although the plot was broken by a legal immigrant seeking the American dream, and the police responded with proper degree of speed and understanding, the real lesson learned here is that the problem was created by turning a blind eye towards illegal immigration.
The U.S. is a haven for immigrants and races from around the world, but by no means does this make illegal immigration okay - it is ...

Israel Versus Jibril: The Thirty-Year War Against a Master Terrorist1 review
Samuel M. Katz
Paragon House Publishers, 1993
Frightening as a Thriller, but REAL!
Ahmed Jibril AKA Abu Jihad (Father Holy War) is a name that is well known to members of anti-terrorist units around the world. Jibril is (maybe was) a master terrorist who helped to pioneer the use of air jacking (taking planes and their passengers hostage), bombing of airliners, killing of innocents, and a host of other crimes. This book tells his story from what little is known of his ...

Nypd: On the Streets With the New York City Police Department's Emergency Service Unit2 reviews
Samuel M. Katz
Motorbooks Intl, 1995
Samuel Katz has done it again!
If your looking for a book that gives you lots of information about the NYPD Emergency Service Unit, then this is the book for you. I am a fan of the NYPD and have been looking for a book like this. If your looking for more information you should look into "Anytime, Anywhere." Thank you very much Mr. Katz for this book. I wish you the best of luck with all of your projects.

Great Hel Ha-Avir (IAF) Background and Photographs!

His sabra (native-born Israeli) wife helps give him an edge over non-Hebrew-speaking IDF researchers.

Hunt For The Engineer: How Israeli Agents Tracked The Hamas Master Bomber26 reviews
Samuel M. Katz
Diane Pub Co, 1999
Shin-bet makes a phone call to " The Engineer"
Yehiya Ayyash was the man who led the turning point of Hamas, with his bombs he scared Israelis like never before. Innocent people were slaughtered and killed by his technique and anger against Jews, but it was only a matter of time when Shin-bet (FBI equivalent in Israel) and Mossad tracked him down and gave him a little phone call on his mobile.
This best thing about this book is that it not ...

Soldier Spies: Israeli Military Intelligence1 review
Samuel M. Katz
Presidio Pr, 1994
Really Serious, Really Current, Combat Military Intelligence
Use the out-of-print service, this book is a gem. This is a great book about the minutia and the value of a well-rounded military intelligence capability--it is relevant to U.S. and other operations going on right now. I was especially impressed with four aspects: the emphasis on prisoner interrogation; the development of easy to install tactical signals collection devices that could be carried ...
