How Israeli Forces Became Experts in Assassination

Journalist Ronen Bergman discusses his new book, Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel's Targeted Assassinations. In May, Bergman broke the news that President Trump disclosed classified information supplied by Israeli espionage agencies to the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey V. Lavrov. In his new book, he offers an inside account of Israel’s targeted killing programs—their successes, their failures, and the moral and political price exacted on the men and women who approved and carried out the missions.

Ronen Bergman will be in conversation with David Sanger at the 92nd Street Y on 1/30 at 8pm.

 This segment is guest hosted by Jonathan Capehart.
