Profits of War : Inside the Secret U.S.-Israeli Arms Network

The inside story of the October Surprise. Ari-Ben Menashe spent more than a decade in the innermost circles of Israel's clandestine services. He brokered deals between Israel, publishing magnate Robert Maxwell and the Eastern Bloc, was privy to the secret negotiations with the Iranians to delay the release of the American hostages, and helped transfer $52 million to Iran--partial payoff for the deal.
