Flash forward to the present. Five billionaires plot to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, by hiring the most expensive killer in the world. Iran learns of the plot through a web of sex, lies, and betrayal, but they know they are hopelessly outclassed in counterterrorism. Only one service in the world has the wherewithal to bring down the assassin—Israel, a country Iran refuses to recognize. Nevertheless, Iran finally manages to hire Israel’s best counterterrorist.

Suis-je, moi, le gardien de mon frère? – Roman par Daniel Gelleri La guerre civile en Israël ! Bien que cela paraisse impossible, ce titre fait la une dans les médias du monde entier. Est-ce que la plus grande expérience de la démocratie a finalement échoué ? Tandis que le monde arabe triomphe, les Etats-Unis – la seule superpuissance encore survivante – sont confrontés par un effroi considérable. Sur le champ de la politique internationale, ont-ils parié sur le mauvais cheval? Cent dix ans après la naissance à Cracovie, en Pologne, de Yitzhak Isaac Isserlish, le descendant d’une lignée de rabbins d’Europe de l’Est de premier plan, ses arrière petits fils sont en guerre l’un contre l’autre dans les collines de Jérusalem – une guerre qui pourrait réellement prouver au monde que l’heure d’Armageddon a sonné! Dans une saga transgénérationnelle finement tramée, Daniel Gelleri, l’auteur du roman populaire Iris, retrace la vie de cinq générations d’une famille juive israélienne dont les membres n’ont pas seulement hérité de leurs ancêtres le temps, l’espace, les espoirs et les rêves, mais en sont profondément affectés dans les cauchemars et les terreurs de leurs propres vies. A la suite de la décision du gouvernement de faire revenir Israël à ses frontières d’avant 1967, la controverse idéologique déchire le tissues fragile de ce que le monde avait toujours considéré comme une lueur d’espoir, un havre d’unité dans un océan de discorde. Ce que l’on chuchotait auparavant entre quatre murs explose désormais dans les rues de chaque bourgade et ville importante. Chaque parti reste inflexible dans sa vision de la forme finale que doit prendre le pays. Chaque parti, aussi, a l’intention de réaliser l’objectif désiré. La plus grande crainte devient une réalité : LA GUERRE CIVILE ! Les citoyens d’Israël se confrontent l’un l’autre, frère contre frère. Chacun aime son pays, ils ont tous à cœur ses meilleurs intérêts, et tous ont peur pour sa sécurité; mais d’une manière paradoxale et tragique, chacun trouve la vision de ses opposants être une abomination. Dans une nation minuscule qui a su affronter l’ennemi sans peur durant soixante-quinze ans, l’impossible arrive: l’ennemi est à l’intérieur. L’ennemi n’est pas aux frontières; l’ennemi est à l’intérieur des frontières! Chaque parti combat pour sa propre justice, pour sa propre foi, pour sa propre vérité, et pour sa propre vision d’un Israël biblique libéré. Daniel Gelleri, un officier supérieur de réserve des Forces de Défense d’Israël (IDF), était autrefois un juif non pratiquant, qui est devenu orthodoxe à l’âge de 25 ans. Il vécut avec sa famille dans la colonie de Cisjordanie de Bat-Ayin pendant dix ans. Quand le Premier Ministre d’Israël Yitzhak Rabin a été assassiné par un extrémiste juif, Gelleri se mit à refaire l’examen de sa foi et de ses convictions. Après une période d’examen de conscience, il revint à son style de vie non religieux d’origine et abandonna le monde religieux dans lequel il vivait. On premier roman, Iris, a été reçu avec beaucoup de succès.

Am 19. April 2005 wurde Joseph Ratzinger zu Benedikt XVI. gewählt. »Wir sind Papst!« verkündete am Tag darauf der Boulevard. Und bündelte darin bei aller Übergeschnapptheit doch die Hauptaspekte, unter denen das neue Kirchenoberhaupt später in Erscheinung treten würde: als Deutscher und als Popstar, bis hin zum Bravo-Poster. Was in der öffentlichen Repräsentation dagegen weitgehend ausgespart blieb, war der Dogmatiker und Theologe Ratzinger. In die so entstehende ›Leerstelle‹ von außen her einzudringen, sprich: die Variablen der Ratzinger-Funktion zu füllen, ist das Experiment des vorliegenden Bandes.

Between 1983 and 1987, mercenaries adopting the pseudonym GAL (Grupos Antiterroristas de Liberación, Antiterrorist Liberation Group) paid by the Spanish treasury and relying upon national intelligence support were at war with the Basque militant group ETA (Euskadi (e)Ta Askatasuna, Basque Country and Freedom). Over four years, their campaign of extrajudicial assassinations spanned the French-Spanish border. Nearly thirty people were killed in a campaign comprised of torture, kidnapping, bombing and the assassination of suspected ETA activists and Basque refugees. This establishment of unofficial counterterrorist squads by a Spanish Government was a blatant detour from legality. It was also a rare case in Europe where no less than fourteen high-ranking Spanish police officers and senior government officials, including the Minister of Interior himself, were eventually arrested and condemned for counter-terrorism wrongdoings and illiberal practices. Thirty years later, this campaign of intimidation, coercion and targeted killings continues to grip Spain. The GAL affair was not only a serious example of a major departure from accepted liberal democratic constitutional principles of law and order, but also a brutal campaign that postponed by decades the possibility of a political solution for the Basque conflict. Counter-terror by proxy uncovers why and how a democratic government in a liberal society turned to a 'dirty war' and went down the route of illegal and extrajudicial killing actions. It offers a fuller examination of the long-term implications of the use of unorthodox counter-terrorist strategies in a liberal democracy.

»›Es ist schön, diese Gegend zu verlassen‹, meint der Erzähler am Ende. Die ›Gegend‹, das ist das Land zwischen Meßkirch und Rast, zwischen der Stadt, die so berühmte Kinder wie den Philosophen Heidegger und das Bravo-Girl des Jahres 1971 die Ihren nennen darf, und dem Dorf, aus dem der Erzähler einst aufs Gymnasium nach Meßkirch geschickt wurde. Es ist ein Landstrich ohne Namen: ›Die Geographen sagen: oberes Ablachtal. Sie sind nicht ›hier‹ gewesen. Sie verteilen ihre Namen von der Karte aus. Die Bewohner von ›hier‹ wissen nicht, wo das obere Ablachtal ist.‹ Die wahren Namen der Gegend lauten Haarschneider Jakob, Pfarrer Haselmeier, Sauschneider Naze, Fräulein Hermle – und immer wieder Heidegger, wobei der Martin, von dem die Leute sagen, daß er ›irrsinnig g’scheit und unheimlich berühmt‹ war, nur einer von etlichen ist, die genauere Erwähnung finden. Zu ihnen, den Menschen zwischen Meßkirch und Rast, gehört auch Arnold Stadler, der mit dem Roman seiner Kindheit zugleich eine andere Art von oberschwäbischer Heimatkunde verfaßt hat.« »Karl-Markus Gauß, Neue Zürcher Zeitung«

“Melissa, silly little goat, Melissa sta—” Charles Flanders Cunningham III — a name that will rank with Hannibal Lecter as the ultimate evil genius. Charles Flanders Cunningham III — the wealthiest, most influential lawyer in the United States, perhaps the world, trusted counselor to presidents, prime ministers, and world leaders. But Cunningham has a dark side, a very dark side known only to himself and his five accomplices. Cunningham arranges to kidnap children from all over the world, none more than six years old, for a period of two weeks, after which they are returned by a wonderful, charitable organization, ChildFinders, to their despairing parents, safe, secure, and outwardly none the worse for wear … but changed. Changed by chemicals, computer implants, and mind alteration. And they do not know it — until they hear one of a thousand catchphrases. Then they turn into programmed automatons, who will do whatever the next command tells them to do. Afterward, the chip erases all memory of what they have done. By means of this undetectable “army,” Cunningham aims to control the world. Can a team led by Israeli counterterrorist Ezra Caen (Assassin, The Wrecking Crew) stop him before it is too late? In the tradition of The Manchurian Candidate and Telefon, you’d best hold on to your nerves and plan on staying up very, very late to finish this riveting thriller. And be frightened. Be very, very frightened. You never can tell if you will be the next victim … or the next killer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APyyH0hZ488 Published by Pangæa Publishing Group,2020. 300 pages – 23 cm x 15 cm

Does the rescue of 1600 men, women, and children justify aiding and abetting the murder of more than half a million others? Under these circumstances, is it morally imperative for one man to bring down an entire government? A young attorney defends an old man accused of criminal libel and must confront these agonizing ethical questions arising from the Holocaust. Jerusalem, 1953-1954. A 72-year-old pensioner, Malchiel Greenwald, publishes a mimeographed newsletter accusing Rudolph Kasztner, Deputy Minister for Trade and a prominent Israeli politician, of being complicit in the deaths of 800,000 Hungarian Jews during 1944, when he was Chairman of the Hungarian Jewish Rescue Committee. Kasztner demands that the State of Israel bring a criminal libel action against the virtually penniless Greenwald for this defamatory publication. Greenwald manages to convince brilliant lawyer and former Irgun “terrorist,” Samuel Tamir, to take on his defense at no cost. On a frigid December day in 1953, Greenwald could not know, nor could he imagine, that he was about to walk into the history of Israel; and that fourteen months later, when the trial concluded and the verdict was announced, the government of Prime Minister Moshe Sharett would be brought down, and the Holy Land would never be the same again. Even today, more than 65 years later, this tale, which has been largely suppressed until now, remains a “hot potato” in Israel. And international bestselling author Hugo N. Gerstl, author of Assassin, The Wrecking Crew, Scribe, and Against All Odds, himself a nationally known trial lawyer, brings the proceedings to the forefront in this riveting historical thriller.
