Carlos: Terror International - Dennis Eisenberg & Eli Landau

The book examines the life and crimes of Carlos the Jackal, a notorious terrorist who carried out numerous attacks in the 1970s and 1980s. Carlos, whose real name is Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, was a Marxist revolutionary who operated on behalf of various Palestinian and left-wing groups.

Eisenberg and Landau provide a detailed account of Carlos's career, including his training and recruitment, his involvement in high-profile attacks such as the kidnapping of OPEC oil ministers in Vienna, and his eventual capture and imprisonment.

The book also delves into the political and social context of Carlos's actions, examining the complex web of alliances and conflicts between various groups involved in the Middle East conflict and global revolutionary movements. It sheds light on the turbulent and violent era of international terrorism during the 1970s and 1980s.
