Free Download The SAS in Occupied France: 2 SAS Operations, June to October 1944 by Gavin Mortimer
English | April 6, 2023 | ISBN: 1526769581 | 192 pages | EPUB | 23 Mb
In the world of military history there is no brand as potent as that of the SAS. They burst into global prominence in 1980 with their spectacular storming of the Iranian Embassy, and there have been hundreds of books, films, documentaries and even reality TV shows about them. But what there hasn’t been is a guide to the scenes of some of their most famous Second World War operations. That is why Gavin Mortimer’s vivid two-volume account of their daring missions in German-occupied France in 1944 is such compelling reading.

After the invasion, American journalists and adventurers flocked there to follow the action; military restrictions on travel were less stringent than in England or France.

Free Download The British and American Intelligence Divisions in Occupied Germany, 1945-1955: A Secret System of Rule by Luke Daly-Groves
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 390 Pages | ISBN : 3031501993 | 24.6 MB
This book provides the first history of the British and American Intelligence Divisions (IDs) in occupied Germany and the liaison between them. It reveals that after the fall of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, much of Germany was controlled by an Anglo-American secret system of rule which was the real backbone of the occupation and largely explains its successful outcomes. Based in Heidelberg, the American ID was the senior American military intelligence organisation in occupied Germany, responsible for the security of American forces in Europe. The British ID, based in Herford, was a purpose-built intelligence organisation designed to ensure the security of the British Zone of Germany and to help achieve the Allied occupation objectives. The IDs undertook military, scientific, security, political, and state-building intelligence tasks which each form the focus of a chapter in this book.

Free Download Ahron Bregman, Derek Perkins (Narrator), "Cursed Victory: Israel and the Occupied Territories; A History"
English | ASIN: B00WTB4HUW | 2015 | M4B@64 kbps | ~13:16:00 | 383 MB
In a move that would forever alter the map of the Middle East, Israel captured the West Bank, Golan Heights, Gaza Strip, and Sinai Peninsula in 1967’s brief but pivotal Six Day War. Cursed Victory is the first complete history of the war’s troubled aftermath-a military occupation of the Palestinian territories that is now well into its fifth decade.
Drawing on unprecedented access to high-level sources, top-secret memos, and never-before-published letters, the audiobook provides a gripping and unvarnished chronicle of how what Israel promised would be an "enlightened occupation" quickly turned sour and the anguished diplomatic attempts to bring it to an end. Bregman sheds fresh light on critical moments in the peace process, taking us behind the scenes as decisions about the fate of the territories were made and, more often, as crucial opportunities to resolve the conflict were missed.

Free Download The Biggest Prison on Earth: A History of the Occupied Territories by Ilan Pappe, Paul Boehmer, Tantor Audio
English | 2019 | ISBN: B07S1Y773T | Format: Opus / Bitrate: 32 Kbps / 11 hours and 17 minutes | 149 Mb
From the author of the best-selling study of the 1948 War of Independence comes an incisive look at the Occupied Territories, picking up the story where The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine left off.
Published on the 15th anniversary of the Six-Day War that culminated in the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Pappe offers a comprehensive exploration of one of the world’s most prolonged and tragic conflicts. Using recently declassified archival material, Pappe analyses the motivations and strategies of the generals and politicians-and the decision-making process itself – that laid the foundation of the occupation. From a survey of the legal and bureaucratic infrastructures that were put in place to control the population of over one million Palestinians, to the security mechanisms that vigorously enforced that control, Pappe paints a picture of what is to all intents and purposes the world’s largest "open prison".
