Listen "By Way of Deception: Unveiling the Mossad or Manufacturing Myths?"
Episode Synopsis
Billed as an explosive exposé, Victor Ostrovsky’s By Way of Deception claims to reveal the inner workings and controversial tactics of Israel’s secretive intelligence agency, the Mossad. Allegedly banned by the Mossad itself, this book chronicles Ostrovsky’s journey from rejecting recruitment to becoming a katsa, or intelligence case officer. It delves into contentious assertions, including the Mossad’s alleged withholding of critical intelligence, involvement in international scandals, and covert operations influencing global affairs.
However, critics argue that the book may serve as deliberate propaganda or misinformation, designed to mislead or discredit. By blending chilling anecdotes with unverifiable claims, By Way of Deception raises as many questions about its author’s motives as it does about the Mossad’s activities. This controversial account challenges readers to weigh its sensational claims against the possibility of distortion, agenda, or misdirection.
