Description
The inside story of the leaders, debates, and decisions that shaped Israel’s longest war.
In the War Room is the inside story of the leaders, debates, and decisions that shaped Israel’s longest war—a multifront battle that eventually led Israeli and then US jets to the heart of Iran. This book also explains the current debates in Israeli society and the clashes or cooperation with US presidents that may shape the future of US–Israel relations, beyond the current government, for those who want to understand what will come next.
Led not merely by a team of rivals but by a war room of bitter enemies, Israel fought back from the October 7 massacre all the way to Tehran. To do so, the Jewish state had to defy the world and the expert predictions that claimed Israel’s strategy would lead it to calamity. Israel did fail at times, especially in Gaza, and it lost significant public support among Americans. But Israel succeeded enough to set back the Iranian proxy axis substantially.
Drawing from their unique access to top Israeli and US officials, including secret intelligence sources, Bob and Kaufman reveal how Israel came back from its lowest moment to outmaneuver Iran in late 2024 and 2025, leading to their greatest confrontation yet in 2026.
“Riveting...the book takes readers inside the conversations—both within Israel and between the US and Israel—that produced the war's greatest achievements and failures.”
— The Free Press
“The detailed portrayals of deliberations within Israel’s inner sanctum are deeply illuminating…A pathbreaking work by two of the world’s finest journalists.”
— Gen. David Petraeus, US Army (Ret.), former commander of the Surge in Iraq and CIA director
“Few journalists had the access to the post-October 7 wartime decision-makers that Yonah Jeremy Bob and Elliot Kaufman have had in reporting out their riveting book, In the War Room .”
—Dan Senor, host of Call Me Back and author of Start-Up Nation and The Genius of Israel
