About This Item

New York: Broadway Books, 2004. 1st edition. As New. 8vo.. dust jacket 259pp., frontis., b/w plates, notes, index, ÔFrom the earliest days of his dictatorship, Saddam Hussein had vowed to destroy Israel. So when France sold Iraq a top-of-the-line nuclear reactor in 1975, the Israelis were justifiably concernedÑespecially when they discovered that Iraqi scientists had already formulated a secret program to extract weapons-grade plutonium from the reactor, a first critical step in creating an atomic bomb. The reactor formed the heart of a huge nuclear plant situated twelve miles from Baghdad, 1,100 kilometres from Tel Aviv. By 1981, the reactor was on the verge of becoming Òhot,Ó and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin knew he would have to confront its deadly potential.Õ
