Masada Never Again

Dani Sharon, an Israeli business entrepreneur, is recruited by his government’s clandestine LEKEM to mastermind acquiring the components and technology to build a nuclear arsenal. Dani’s flamboyant character and tactical brilliance make him a natural for the assignment. His only stipulation in accepting the task is that he be allowed to skim a profit off all his transactions to finance his movie ventures. Dani obtains the necessary material and information through extralegal and clandestine methods. He cuts numerous deals with European, South African, and American companies. What he can’t buy, he steals in daring capers monitored by the superpowers. Within a short time Israel explodes its first atom bomb. However, soon after this success, Israeli leaders realize radioactive fallout would endanger their own population if the atom bomb were used against hostile Arab neighbors. They conclude a neutron bomb is necessary to protect the Israelis from this danger. Using a movie production company as a cover, Dani begins acquiring the technology for such a bomb and the ballistic missile to deliver it.Smyth, Richard is the author of 'Masada Never Again', published 2006 under ISBN 9781424142538 and ISBN 1424142539.
