Possibly as near to the truth that one can get, life as a special agent is not necessarily glamourous, and men do not take up this occupation for money. Many young men may dream of being a special agent, few will ever become one, and fewer will in the end derive satisfaction or fulfillment from such an occupation. An informative read, an unpleasant subject.

«Avner» era um vulgar agente da Mossad quando, com apenas vinte e seis anos de idade, foi pessoalmente escolhido por Golda Meir para liderar uma equipa de agentes especializados, com a missão de localizar, perseguir e eliminar os responsáveis pelo massacre de onze atletas israelitas, perpetrado durante os Jogos Olímpicos de Munique, em 1972.

"Munique – A Vingança" é a espantosa descrição de que como toda essa operação foi montada, e revela o modo impiedoso e extraordinariamente eficaz como o grupo levou a cabo essa sua missão, perseguindo os seus alvos palestinianos e executando-os com timings perfeitos.

Trata-se de um relato profundamente humano, uma história real de espionagem que leva o leitor a entrar no obscuro mundo do terrorismo e política internacional. Mas este livro torna também evidente a outra face dessa mesma moeda: o terrível paradoxo que emerge sempre que aqueles que detêm o poder resolvem enfrentar o terrorismo utilizando as mesmas tácticas.

Nascido em Budapeste, na Hungria, em 1935 e vive no canadá desde 1956. Trabalhou para a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a emissora pública canadiana até 1985, tendo-se depois tornado jornalista freelance, escritor de romances, peças de teatro e poesia e produtor de televisão. Munique - A Vingança deu já origem a dois filmes: "Sword of Gideon", realizado em 1986 por Michael Anderson; e mais recentemente "Munique", de Steven Spielberg, com estreia em Fevereiro de 2006. ( )

*Any political comments will be deleted. I don’t discuss political/religious/social issues on the Internet. So, don’t waste my time and yours. Want a political discussion? Head over to Twitter. Seriously, though.*

For us Greeks, the Olympic Games run in our blood. It is one more reason to be proud. All the citizens of the world associate the 15 days of peace and togetherness with strength, pride, honour. With images of the sacred ceremony of the Olympic Flame, the Olympic movement, the Flag of Peace with the circles of equality and solidarity.

But there are certain people who refuse to learn the meaning of peace, who refuse to respect anything that goes beyond their twisted notion of religion.

When I was ten, I watched a documentary dedicated to the events of the Munich Massacre that took place in the 1972 Olympics. Since that day, one of the strongest images I associate with the global celebration is a monster with a raised gun, standing on the balcony. A monster who didn’t even have the balls to uncover his face. One of the eight beasts that violated every sense of morality, peace and every basic principle that makes us human beings, causing the death of eleven Israeli athletes. It is the memory of a child beginning to understand that no, all is not well with the world. It is the memory of the Games that should have never continued but hey, let’s hear it for the show, right? Not to mention the incompetence (or unwillingness) of the German authorities. And my money is on the second option…

This book is a journey. The 2005 film by Steven Spielberg is a masterpiece. No written words, no movie can depict the horror, the violation, the flag of peace that was torn to pieces by the Black September monsters. But books and films are there for the younger generations.

Lest we forget…

‘’How can we possibly consider merely turning the other cheek to adversaries who are willing to commit crimes on the order of the Munich Massacre or 9/11 - or, for that matter, the Holocaust?’’

And that’s how simple it is... ( )

Sarà tutto vero?

Diciamo che è vero un po' e non vero un po' u_u

In fondo se uno vuole informarsi su questa storia ci saranno altri libri, immagino... dei saggi più autorevoli, non come questo che è molto ma molto romanzato.

In ogni caso, chissenefrega della storia vera, è un ottima lettura, appassionante, intrigante e scorrevole. Anche se di parte >_>

Mi era piaciuto quando l'avevo letto per la prima volta anni fa e mi è piaciuto anche stavolta u_u ( )
