The history of the state of Israel is one of continuous war punctuated by intermittent stretches of peace. The open military conflicts the young nation has experienced have always threatened its continuing existence, but none more so than the Yom Kippur War in 1973. Never before and never since has Israel come closer to annihilation.In The Angel: The Egyptian Spy Who Saved Israel, the Israeli political scientist Uri Bar-Joseph tells the little-known tale of Ashraf Marwan. This son-in-law of President Gamal Abdel Nasser and close adviser to his successor, Anwar Sadat, was also a spy for the Mossad. Marwan’s reports to his handler enabled the Israeli Defense Force to recover from the surprise of the initial Egyptian and Syrian attack and soon turn the tide.A remarkable episode in Israeli historyMarwan’s story is astonishing. As a supremely ambitious young man, he married Nasser’s daughter. Marwan made the mistake of misjudging his father-in-law. When the puritanical president learned that Marwan was using his position to enrich himself, he cast the young man adrift. Bar-Joseph speculates that Marwan’s desire to exert revenge on Nasser led him to offer himself as an informant for the Mossad.The making of an Egyptian spyNasser died in 1970 when Marwan was just 26 years of age. He cleverly maneuvered himself into the good graces of Anwar Sadat by undermining the Nasserite faction during the confusion when the country’s new leadership was in question. In short order, Marwan became Sadat’s personal representative to other Middle Eastern leaders, including King Faisal of Saudi Arabia and President Moammar Gaddhafi of Libya. These connections, and his closeness to Sadat, enabled him to amass a large personal fortune while reporting to the Israelis on a regular basis.Doubts about Marwan’s authenticityMarwan’s reports in the early 1970s frequently reached the desk of Prime Minister Golda Meir. But he was not universally regarded as reliable within the Israeli intelligence community. In fact, for the rest of his life there were those in the Israeli military intelligence leadership who maintained that Marwan was a double agent, placed to mislead Israel at important junctures. It was this skepticism that led several key Israeli leaders to disregard several of Marwan’s early warnings of the impending Egyptian-Syrian attack. Only on the day of the attack itself was his last, desperate message heeded at the highest levels. Though it came only hours before the Egyptians crossed the Suez Canal, the warning time was sufficient for the IDF to avoid catastrophe.Espionage and egotismBar-Joseph explains at great length how distrust of Marwan came to be so widespread not just in the Israeli government and military but among the public as well. The head of military intelligence when the Yom Kippur War broke out had rejected Marwan’s report of the imminent attack—and for decades afterward he insisted in press interviews and in a widely read book that Marwan was a double agent. Bar-Joseph details the evidence refuting the double agent hypothesis and makes clear that Marwan’s chief critic was motivated by a desire to avoid blame for his failure to act on the warnings he received. Little wonder, since his stubborn refusal to accept reality was one of the most shameful acts in Israeli history.About the authorUri Bar-Joseph is an Israeli political scientist who has written the definitive book on the intelligence failures that caused his country to come close to losing the Yom Kippur War. The Angel focuses on the role of the intelligence establishment’s relationship with the spy whose reports were decisive in enabling an Israeli victory.

The Angel: The Egyptian Spy Who Saved Israel....The Angel is a remarkable book -- the result of deep research into one of the most fascinating spy stories ever....reads like a thriller. Bar Joseph story telling ability - extracted from interviews and documents - is outstanding. As someone who actually participated in the Yom Kippur war, I could not stop reading. Many lessons to be learnt from both historical accounts as well as human nature so skilfully analysed and described. This is a must read whether you like history, thrillers, intelligence, spy stories or even if you are looking for a fascinating read while on the beach.

The above statement is supposedly used by CIA case officers to indicate that their agent networks are often composed of unsavory characters who have betrayed their countries for less than pristine reasons. The exact motives of Egyptian government official Ashraf Marwan for offering his services to Israel are most certainly a mixture of various concerns, but this book maintains that he really liked the money they paid him. He also had every reason to hate his father-in-law Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser who viewed him as a corrupt opportunist. This situation is worth considering since this book is being made into an upcoming spy thriller by Netflix, which, according to Time magazine, portrays Marwan as an idealistic hero. I guess we call that dramatic license. The book itself is an excellent study by an Israeli scholar who has a background in military intelligence. Unfortunately he does not have full access to many relevant files which have not yet been declassified, so this work has to be considered tentative until additional source materials become available. It is still probably the very best book on this subject that we are going to see for quite some time. If you are interested, I have a 1300 word essay on this book coming out in a Forthcoming edition of Parameters: the US Army War College Quarterly.

The information in this book is astonishing. In an academic fashion the author has painstakingly footnoted his work to convince the reader of his conclusion that Ashraf Marwan, Nasser's son in law and Sadat's confidant, was a pivotal secret agent for Israel. Overall, the information is fascinating, but I give it only 3 stars because the narrative got bogged down in endless repetition in support of the author’s assertions. I made it through the book motivated to discover Marwan’s fate, but I would have enjoyed the book more had it been more concise. Anyone interested in 20th century middle eastern history and Arab-Israeli relations will want to read this book.

The book is very readable. Aside from a few digressions, the material seems factual. One aspect of espionage is the betrayal for strange, personal reasons. Readers understand greed traitors, or men driven by ideology. But the hardest to understand, and sometimes the most effective, moles are people who follow their own unique, intensely personal, and intensely warped logic.The Angel is not the sole attraction of the text. The writer introduces the politics of Egypt. That world is neither idealistic, nor is it a "film noir" world. Western readers expect individual desires for power or greed to influence policy. But in much of the world, the individual is less important than family, rank and contacts. The descriptions of Egypt under Nassar and Sadat are fascinating.

I was utterly fascinated and amazed at this story and had to keep pinching myself to confirm that it was, indeed, true!!! The "angel" who is depicted here was responsible for saving Israel many times and surely deserves credit for it; what was sad to report was the utter chaos in Israel surrounding the "angel's" actions, which almost resulted in disaster!!! Very well-written and I understand that a movie is in the process of being made, which I would love to see.
