…cle on why Comey screwed Clinton. Came from Israeli press. 1. Comey as DA is hunting down Marc Rich to indict him. 2. Ehud calls Clinton and says please pardon Marc Rich he has done work for Mossad that has been valuable. 3. Clinton pardons Rich and Comey has been pissed ever s...

/ BARAK / 135 Yet especially with my main points of contact in the administration — first Bob Gates and then his successor, Leon Panetta, as Secretary of Defense —our broadly shared views, mutual respect, and the strength of the US-Israeli alliance outweighed any of that. Neithe...

/ BARAK / 122 sure she won the respect of many Israelis for taking an all-to-rare stand of principle. She certainly won mine. But I was not alone in wondering whether it was worth the price that she, Kadima, and the country would pay as a result: Bibi’s return as Prime Minister...

/ BARAK / 88 Chapter Twenty-Three It didn’t fully hit me how draining our efforts had been until the morning that the summit collapsed, when President Clinton called me to come talk to him in the living room at Laurel Lodge. When I arrived, Madeleine was already there, sitting...

/ BARAK / 94 end of the day, dozens of Israelis and Palestinians were injured. Five Palestinians lay dead. Though the media almost instantly labelled it a new “intifada”, this one was very different. It was not a burst of anger, however misdirected, by stone- throwing youths con...

/ BARAK / 93 The request that had come across my desk a few days earlier need not have changed that. Even though Arik had failed, for now, to bring down the government, he was keen to make political capital from the collapse of Camp David. He now declared his intention to pay a...
