Resumen del Editor

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

In Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu’s ”compelling” (The Economist) and “substantive” (The Guardian) autobiography, the newly reelected prime minister of Israel tells the story of his family, his path to leadership, and his unceasing commitment to defending his country and securing its future.

From their earliest days, Bibi and his close-knit brothers, Yoni and Iddo, were instilled with purpose. Born in the wake of the Holocaust at the dawn of Israel’s independence and raised in a family with a prominent Zionist history, they understood that the Jewish state was a hard-won and still precarious gift. All three studied in American high schools—where they learned to appreciate the United States—before returning to their cherished homeland.

The brothers joined an elite special forces outfit of the Israeli Defense Forces known as “the Unit.” At twenty-two, Bibi was wounded while leading his team in the rescue of hostages from a hijacked plane. Four years later, in 1976, Yoni was killed in Entebbe, Uganda, while leading his men in one of the most daring hostage-rescue missions in modern times. Yoni became a legend; Bibi felt he would never recover from his grief. Yet, inspired by Yoni’s legacy and guided by the wisdom of his visionary historian father, Bibi thrust himself into the international struggle against terrorism, ultimately becoming the longest-serving prime minister in Israel’s history—an honor he further cemented by winning reelection in 2022.

In this memoir Bibi weaves together his gripping personal story with the dramatic history of Israel and the Jewish people. Through a host of vivid anecdotes, he narrates his own evolution from soldier to statesman, while providing a unique perspective on leadership, the fraught geopolitics of the Middle East, and his successful efforts to liberate Israel’s economy, which helped turn it into a global powerhouse of technological innovation.

Netanyahu gives colorful, detailed, and revealing accounts of his often turbulent relationships and negotiations with Presidents Clinton, Obama, and Trump. With eye-opening candor, he delves into the back channels of high diplomacy—including his struggle against the radical forces that threaten Israel and the world at large, and the decisive events that led to Israel’s groundbreaking 2020 peace agreements with four Arab states.

Offering an unflinching account of a life, a family, and a nation, Netanyahu writes from the heart and embraces controversy head-on. Steely and funny, high-tempo and full of verve, this autobiography will stand as a defining testament to the value of political conviction and personal courage.

ביבי מלך ישראל, חי חי וקיים

A living legend, may the Likud win in the upcoming election and get Israel to the right path again.
got to love it that the book start with intense gore stories.
The first half of the book is filled with : Grotesque, Torture, Decapitation, Diarrhea, Bones Breaking, Limbs Chopping, Explosions, Injuries, Bullets Flying, Killings, Deaths ,Limbs Flying , War ,Piles Of Bodies Towering to the sky.
Benjamin character has An Insane will power, discipline , work-ethic and incredible loyalty to Israel and most heroic bravery mentioned in the book will almost always be considered science-fiction, but most stories here are very accurate and all too real.
the second half of the book is filled with : Politics, History, Rationalizations of most of his decisions and actions in Israel, Sharing of his intimate relationships with lots of the world leaders, I was surprised by the many death threats he received by so called allies that always had the perfect and all is always good and under-control persona and Imagery.
I will 100% vote for the Likud, this book gives a much needed context and clarity that was lacking from the public eyes and ears for many years.
BB is a real human being and a real hero - all of James Bond movies are nothing compared to this man, I very much appreciate your sacrifice and hope that you will win in court.

Thank goodness for this man

So worth it - so much coherence and powerful intellectual foundation. A life in search of peace based in realism. Awesome

A Courageous Life - A Wonderful History

Thank you for laboring to write your story, Bibbi; and for your unwavering courage to defend the undivided land of Israel, and your uncompromising leadership in the face of enormous political division. God bless you, and God bless Israel.

Open and revealing. Great story. Great life.

Benjamin Netanyahu tells his story and purpose. He starts from childhood and walks through many major world events that affect Israel. He is candid and a bit self aggrandizing. Fascinating story.

Inspiring and well written

After spending quite some time with the book, after all it IS almost 30 hours long... I can say that anybody who is interested in Political Science and or the Geopolitics of the Middle East and or the US-Israeli relationship may find the book very satisfying. I was missing some real honest contemplation on his side to things he wants to improve or should have been both as a reader/listener for that matter but also as an Israeli. There is an obvious way of drawing a bit of a nicer picture to what was really going on in memoirs it is natural even as we remenice in life we tend to do that but still. I think that his life story though is truly unparalleled. A story of really unbelievable calling of a man. *Shout out to the narrator who made me spit my tea when he tried to pronounce a word in Hebrew it was funny every time🤣

Excellent and meaningful read

I enjoyed this audio book very much. It’s a perspective on history that I find to be incredibly fascinating and insightful. The cords of true leadership and doing hard things resonated to me.

A necessary read for all who live in civilized countries

I’ve have always had a fascination with the Jewish people and their plight primarily with the Arabs and seemingly all other ethnicities; however, they always seem to ‘land on their feet’ - Bibi’s account and his role on the world stage has not only served to further increase my respect and awe of him and his family, but also helped to clarify historical events and how politics worldwide have an effect on Israeli state decisions. A must read!

Love it, Love it

Best read ever, God bless Bibi
What a life, what a legacy. This is a must read for every country on earth!!!

excellent view into Isreals fight to survive

Bibi is a true hero.
