Target Tehran: How Israel is Using Sabotage, Cyberwarfare, Assassination – and Secret Diplomacy – to Stop a Nuclear Iran and Create a New Middle East

Publisher: Simon & Schuster

Yonah Jeremy Bob is the senior military and intelligence analyst as well as the book review editor for The Jerusalem Post. Yonah has also previously worked in the Israeli military international Law Division, at the Israeli Embassy to the UN, and in the Israeli Justice Ministry. His works include Justice in the West Bank and being the editor and translator for A Raid on the Red Sea. 

Yohan Bob explains how Israel has used cyberwarfare, targeted assassinations, and sabotage of Iranian facilities to great effect, sometimes in cooperation with the United States. The story will reveal how Israel has used documents stolen from Tehran in a daring, secret Mossad raid to show the US and the International Atomic Energy Agency how Iran has violated the 2015 JCPOA nuclear agreement and lied about its nuclear weapons program. Onah will also explain the story of the thunderous history of how Israel has managed to outmaneuver Iran.

Book publishing date: September 26, 2023
