Entebbe Files Reveal Secret Strategy

Israel just released declassified files on the 1976 Entebbe raid — the daring mission that rescued over 100 hostages from a hijacked Air France flight in Uganda. Facing a six-day standoff and mounting pressure from hostage families, Israel shifted from outright refusal to negotiate to a dual-track strategy: talks via France and Uganda while secretly planning the raid. The commandos stormed the airport in under an hour, saving nearly all hostages — a stunning success after the trauma of Munich. But in a sobering memo, Prime Minister Rabin acknowledged the raid didn’t solve terrorism — it just delayed the inevitable. As Israel grapples with the aftermath of October 7, these files offer a chilling reminder: victory on the battlefield doesn’t end the war.
