Bruce Brill is a former analyst for the US National Security Agency called NSA.

During his tenure in the early 1970s he became aware of intelligence indicating imminent attacks on Israel by Egypt and Syria prior to the Yom Kippur war in 1973.

He asserts that this critical information was withheld from Israeli authorities and Egypt and Syria attacked Israel on Yom Kippur.  More than 2660 Israeli soldiers were killed.   

The surprise attack on Israel on October 7, 2023 exactly 50 years almost to the day 1300 Israeli's were killed and more than a 130 were taken hostage..  This was also a surprise attack similar to Yom Kippur 11973,  

Bruce shares a fascinating story with me.  He wrote a book Deceit of an Ally and discusses it with me.

The books is available on Amazon.  It's a good read and flows like a spy thriller.
