Since 9/11, the U.S. war on terror has primarily targeted al-Qaeda, Afghanistan, and Iraq, with Iran's nuclear ambitions dominating coverage. However, Ronen Bergman's investigative history reveals that Iran has been the leading global sponsor of terror for thirty years. As one of Israel's top investigative reporters, Bergman gained access to key sources within the Mossad and global intelligence agencies. His research, spanning over a decade and including more than three hundred exclusive interviews, uncovers how Iranian terrorist operatives have executed bombings and assassinations worldwide, even planning attacks in New York City. Iran's proxy, Hizballah, has taken control of southern Lebanon and poses a significant threat to Israel, armed with advanced weaponry from Iran. Furthermore, Iran has collaborated with al-Qaeda and other Sunni groups to enhance their terrorist capabilities, training Iraqi insurgents in suicide bombings and roadside bomb construction that have resulted in numerous U.S. casualties. Beneath the public's awareness, a clandestine war has unfolded between Iran and Hizballah on one side and the CIA, Mossad, and European intelligence on the other. This untold story will reshape discussions about U.S. national security priorities, highlighting the emergence of a new axis of evil from Iran that the CIA and Mossad have struggled to counter. The narrative is both riveting and urgent.
