Military Intelligence Directorate (Israel)

The Directorate of Military Intelligence (Hebrew: אגף המודיעין, Agaf HaModi'in – lit. "the Intelligence Section"; Arabic: شعبة الاستخبارات العسكرية), often abbreviated to Aman (Hebrew: אמ"ן; Arabic: آمان), is the central, overarching military intelligence body of the Israel Defense Forces. Aman was created in 1950, when the Intelligence Department was spun off from the IDF's General Staff (then, Agam: אג"ם); the Intelligence Department itself was composed largely of former members of the Haganah Intelligence Service (HIS). Aman is an independent service, and not part of the ground forces, navy or the Israeli Air Force.

It is one of the main entities in the Israeli Intelligence Community, along with Mossad (national intelligence) and Shin Bet (general security). It is currently headed by Major General Aviv Kochavi. It has a staff of 7,000 personnel (1996 estimate). Its special forces and field-reconnaissance unit is Sayeret Matkal, and its elite training course is Havatzalot Program.

A Man

A Man (1979) (Italian: Un Uomo) (Greek: Ένας Άνδρας, transliteration: Enas Andras) is a novel written by Oriana Fallaci chronicling her relationship with the attempted assassin of Greek dictator George Papadopoulos.

Plot summary

The book is a pseudo-biography about Alexandros Panagoulis written in the form of a novel. Fallaci had an intense romantic relationship with Panagoulis. She uses the novel to put forth her view that Panagoulis was assassinated by a vast conspiracy, a view widely shared by many Greeks.

The work has had mixed reviews. Some will find the harsh polemic repetitive and disturbing. Fallaci is said to have been angry at Ms Magazine for not reviewing the work and this enhanced her reputation as an anti-feminist.

Quotes

"Don't help me then, hand me over to the police, what's the use anyway--"
"Of suffering, fighting? It allows us to live, my boy. A man who gives in doesn't live, he survives."

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    A Man

    by: Alanis Morissette

    I am a man as a man I've been told
    Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
    Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
    Years I have groveled, repentance ignored
    And I have been blamed and I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    I am man who has grown from a son
    Been crucified by enraged women
    I am son who was raised by such men
    I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among
    And I have been shamed and I have relented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    And I have been shamed and I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    We don't fare well with endless reprimands
    We don't do well with a life served as a sentence
    And this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
    'Cause I am a man who understands your resistance
    I am a man who still does what he can
    To dispel our archaic reputation
    I am a man who has heard all he can
    'Cuz I don't fare well with endless punishment
    'Cuz I have been blamed and I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    And we have been blamed and we have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    We don't fare well with endless reprimands
    And we don't do well with a life served as a sentence
    And this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
