Download or read book Mossad Exodus written by Gad Shimron and published by Gefen Publishing House Ltd. This book was released on 2007 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1977, Israel's Mossad spy agency was given an assignment from former Prime Minister Menachem Begin to rescue thousands of Ethiopian Jewish refugees in Sudan and "deliver them" in the Jewish state. No stranger to action in enemy countries, the agency established a covert forward base in a deserted holiday village in Sudan, and deployed a handful of operatives to launch and oversee the exodus of the refugees to the Promised Land, by sea and by air, in the early 1980s. Gad Shimron, the author of this book, was one of their number. Shimron offers a thrilling firsthand account of how the operation was put in place, and how the Mossad team in Sudan brought it off, despite great personal risk, running a partying vacation spot for wealthy tourists by day as they stole through the Sudanese desert to rescue desperate refugees by night"--

Download or read book Priceless written by Robert K. Wittman and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wall Street Journal called him “a living legend.” The London Times dubbed him “the most famous art detective in the world.” In Priceless, Robert K. Wittman, the founder of the FBI’s Art Crime Team, pulls back the curtain on his remarkable career for the first time, offering a real-life international thriller to rival The Thomas Crown Affair. Rising from humble roots as the son of an antique dealer, Wittman built a twenty-year career that was nothing short of extraordinary. He went undercover, usually unarmed, to catch art thieves, scammers, and black market traders in Paris and Philadelphia, Rio and Santa Fe, Miami and Madrid. In this page-turning memoir, Wittman fascinates with the stories behind his recoveries of priceless art and antiquities: The golden armor of an ancient Peruvian warrior king. The Rodin sculpture that inspired the Impressionist movement. The headdress Geronimo wore at his final Pow-Wow. The rare Civil War battle flag carried into battle by one of the nation’s first African-American regiments. The breadth of Wittman’s exploits is unmatched: He traveled the world to rescue paintings by Rockwell and Rembrandt, Pissarro, Monet and Picasso, often working undercover overseas at the whim of foreign governments. Closer to home, he recovered an original copy of the Bill of Rights and cracked the scam that rocked the PBS series Antiques Roadshow. By the FBI’s accounting, Wittman saved hundreds of millions of dollars worth of art and antiquities. He says the statistic isn’t important. After all, who’s to say what is worth more --a Rembrandt self-portrait or an American flag carried into battle? They're both priceless. The art thieves and scammers Wittman caught run the gamut from rich to poor, smart to foolish, organized criminals to desperate loners. The smuggler who brought him a looted 6th-century treasure turned out to be a high-ranking diplomat. The appraiser who stole countless heirlooms from war heroes’ descendants was a slick, aristocratic con man. The museum janitor who made off with locks of George Washington's hair just wanted to make a few extra bucks, figuring no one would miss what he’d filched. In his final case, Wittman called on every bit of knowledge and experience in his arsenal to take on his greatest challenge: working undercover to track the vicious criminals behind what might be the most audacious art theft of all.

Book excerpt: In the predawn hours of a gloomy February day in 1994, two thieves entered the National Gallery in Oslo and made off with one of the world's most famous paintings, Edvard Munch's Scream. It was a brazen crime committed while the whole world was watching the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer.

Download or read book The Flagellant written by Reed Alexander and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you find yourself rooting for the villain in a horror movie? Maybe it's because horror films represent the victims as cowering lambs ready to throw their own mother in the jaws of death to save themselves. The usual pack of unsuspecting teenagers, through their own stupidity, serves themselves up as fodder. These are not people you feel sorry for. These are the same self–centered slobs plodding around society, aggravating everyone around them. That victim is that smart–mouthed prick who screwed up your order at the Waffle Hut, or that bimbo who had her boyfriend beat you up, or that guy from payroll who shorted you and told you it's somehow your fault. It's that jet–set, life handed to him, Ivy League boss who defended that prick from payroll, because it's good for the company's overhead. If a victim's death in a horror movie seems cathartic, it's because the directors and writers know we'll pack theaters for that very reason. We'd love to see that boss, that accountant, that bimbo and her pinhead boyfriend, and that little prick at the Waffle Hut, get what's coming to them. But my book is not about the victims. My book is about you. Yes, you. The bloodthirsty, thinks they should run the world, him or her hoping the slave gets fed to the lions. The Flagellant is about why we love to watch the victims get theirs and what that says about us. The Flagellant focuses around our protagonist, Mahdoc, as he attempts to infiltrate unholy nests of evil. This is no normal task, and Mahdoc is no normal man. He's a special soldier of the Inquisition known as a flagellant. His very soul is owned by the Inquisition. Mahdoc's was pulled from hell, and if he wants to stay here on earth, he'll fight for the Inquisition, without question, for one thousand years. The task of a flagellant is unrelentingly brutal. Each nest of evil is unique and protects itself by concealing its root cause. To get at the roots, each flagellant must allow themselves to become the victim. Like many before him, Mahdoc must succumb to the horror and madness so he can be delivered to the root of the nest. Only then can he kill it and guarantee it will never come back.
