Overview

In late 2000, Israel faced a new uprising: the al-Aqsa Intifada. The terrorists' strategy was to slip into the everyday lives of Israeli citizens and unleash attacks. But Israel had its own operatives blending in among the enemy: the Ya'mas. This is the story of the Druze, Bedouins, Christians and Jews who infiltrated the chop shops and drug dens of the territories; those whose knowledge of Arabic language and customs secured intelligence. Against a backdrop of high-level peace talks and the smoke of burning tires, it is a tale of daring and deception in the Middle East.
