摘要

This book uncovers the untold story behind one of the most significant episodes in the history of German-Israeli relations, revealing how Chancellor Helmut Kohl orchestrated Germany's approval and financing of the first Dolphin-class submarines for Israel. A process driven by security interests, alliance politics and Germany's lasting responsibility following the Shoah. Drawing on newly examined archival material, the book illustrates how the Gulf War, US pressure and Germany’s own identity converged to produce a precedent-setting decision that reshaped bilateral ties for decades.
