The inside story of Israel's secret negotiations to bring home
their soldiers taken hostage by terrorist groups. Suppose one day,
your son or husband, while serving in the military or working as a
journalist, is taken hostage by a terrorist group-and you have no
idea whether your loved one is dead or alive or how to even make
contact with the insurgents holding him. It's a nightmare scenario
that has sadly taken place dozens of times in the past twenty years
in the Middle East. Here in the U.S., the government does not
always get involved. Instead, it will engage the services of a
neutral country to negotiate with the terrorists. Unfortunately,
many times the terrorists insist on never-ending demands in order
to torment the family of the hostage. Unlike Israel, we've never
had a central address for these types of scenarios. But maybe after
reading this book, it's an idea we could, and should, consider. Ory
Slonim, the international "door knocker" was an invention of
necessity by the Israeli government. There were many good and brave
human beings involved in this matter. Here for the first time is
the story of the one man in Israel who, for more than two decades,
was known as the "door knocker." He had been a private Israeli
lawyer when he was asked to undertake, on behalf of the Israeli
government, secret negotiations to find out the whereabouts of
Israeli soldiers who were taken hostage by terrorist groups. His
ultimate mission was to bring them home, dead or alive. In his
capacity as negotiator, his story will take into you into the
worlds of the furtive Mossad, the twisted minds of terrorists, the
forever traumatized lives of the parents whose children never came
home from battle, and into Ory's own resilient, compassionate, and
amazingly resolute negotiations when ordinary people would have
easily broken down.
