The Sayeret Matkal (Sa`yette´ MaT-Kal) Unit was created in 1957 under command of Major Avraham Arnan and was modeled after the British Special Air Service (SAS). The Sayeret Matkal operated under the direct command of the Israeli General Staff. One of the Sayeret Matkal notable missions was on July, 4th, 1976 to rescue hostages that were hijacked on a French flight and flown to Entebbe, Uganda. The raid on Entebbe that consisted of a 29-man Sayeret assault team that was led by Lieutenant Colonel Yonatan Netanyahu, the brother of future Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that was killed during this mission.This book is based on two fictional characters, Lieutenants Colonel Max Sotenberg and Lieutenants Colonel Yigael Rosenstraus. Lieutenant Colonel Sotenberg and Rosenstraus were in their mid-30's that looked like they had just stepped out of central casting for one of Ian Fleming James Bond, 007, movie series. They were both trained in Krav Maga combat tactics, military strategies, trained in military intelligence, and spoke five different languages.Their story is set against historical events that took place starting in October of 1993 where these two fictional officers were assigned to Mogadishu, Somalia in 1993. Their primary assignment was to gather intelligence on various terrorist groups in North Africa that could pose a threat to Israel security and assist the United States security forces in Somalia. This was during the U.S. Operation Restore Hope that started out as a humanitarian operation to insure food distribution to the Somalian people to prevent being captured by warlords, like Mohammad Farrah Aidid.They both served together until they both retired after serving in various high level missions that included operating with U.S. Navy SEAL Teams like in Operation Neptune Spear. This was the raid to neutralize Osama bin Laden. They also worked supporting the CIA in Benghazi, and the U.S. Military in eliminating ISIS, and other various terrorist leaders in the Mid-East up until 2026. Sayeret Matkal members are trained to perform reconnaissance for gathering intel, to destabilize threats like from the Iran Regime by working various resistance groups like the Iran Regime that are the sponsor of terrorism in the Mid-East and North Africa.I hope this book will give the reader a glimpse into what our various special forces, operators, commandos, and all of our military service personnel do under very dangerous conditions. Their efforts allow people to live in freedom, safety while pursuing life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Their efforts support the natural fact that we all are created equal with the right to reach to live our lives without fear.Every soldier, sailor, and marine that has experienced war desire is to avoid war if no other options can be achieved. Every military person prepares for war in order to prevent war and maintain the peace and freedoms of others that they serve.As Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 2:4- ...And they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. But to preserve peace and freedom, nations must be prepared to defend their sovereignty of freedom and peace through strength. As any coach will tell you, the best athlete is one that is the strongest and most fit following their training. Read more
