The Gaza war is over --- 2 years after it began with the horrific massacres and kidnappings by Hamas in Israeli territory.

But is it really over? And is President Trump correct, in portraying the breakthrough as a huge step toward an overall era of peace in the Middle East?

In this episode of THE MOSSAD FILES, Dan Raviv interviews Yossi Kuperwasser -- a retired brigadier general in Israel's military intelligence -- and we also hear Tal Becker of the Shalom Hartman Institute (thanks to Democratic Majority for Israel, as Becker spoke on a DMFI panel).

Join THE MOSSAD FILES for a critical look at the Trump plan, and the elements of the crisis that plainly are not resolved.

Dan's most recent book -- with Israeli espionage/defense expert Yossi Melman -- about the Mossad and Israel's other security agencies is "Spies Against Armageddon: Inside Israel's Secret Wars" -- You may purchase it at http://bit.ly/41j1Sc3 in Kindle or paperback (and on all e-book platforms).

AND ANOTHER BOOK: Dan Raviv is co-author of a new book -- with world-renowned social psychologist Prof. Arie Kruglanski -- "The Quest for Significance: Harnessing the Need that Makes the World Go Round." It explains how every person has a need for respect and dignity, and the book advises how you can find what's important to you -- and figure out all the people around you, to give them a measure of Significance ... and then they typically will reflect some back at you. That's called a win-win. To buy: https://amzn.to/3Y2cawj
