Rezensionen

Set in post WWII Israel during the British occupation, historically covers the actions against the British along with other Jewish groups to convince the British to leave Israel. Entertaining and a great read. The dialogue could be better, but the story leaves nothing to be desired.

‘Yes, It’s Possible’ Ehud Diskin’s autobiography traces his first hand experiences growing up in

the state of Israel, serving as a tank battalion leader in the IDF during the War of Attrition and

Yom Kippur war. His courage and devotion to Israel is apparent as he gives the reader an

inside look at the wars and how he saw the people and their leaders. His philosophy of life

revealed a man who lived his life with chutzpa and risk taking without concern of what others

might think of him. His attitude was he could do anything he could get away with without

punishment. His ‘Mission Impossible” with the crossing of the Suez Canal that led to victory

was told with great insight of the people who were involved. Less interesting to me was his

business dealings and the many family pictures.

I received this ebook as part of the LibraryThing Early Review program in exchange for my

honest review.

I was very excited to read this book-I lived in Israel for four years in high school and have a deep connection and affinity to those in Israel.

I was not able to really get into this book. I read the first several chapters, and while there were pieces I enjoyed ultimately the book did not captivate my attention.
