Israeli statesman and former UN Ambassador, Danny Danon, presents a
compelling vision of Israel's future as a major player on the global
stage.
In the Lion's Den is a book about the life events that encouraged
Danny Danon to pursue his chosen career path and take his distinct and
direct approach during his time as Knesset Member and later on in his
political career. It is a book that tells the story of his journey to
the United Nations and the key events that occurred during the five
years he served as Israel's 17th Permanent Representative to the UN.
In the Lion's Den draws on the unique perspective of a man who has
spent his entire career in his nation's public service. Danon shares his
experiences on the front lines of Israel's global presence--the
successes as well as the disappointments. Danon makes a compelling case
for an Israel that must be proud of its identity and faith; forge
relationships with diverse peoples; make autonomous domestic decisions;
and determine its own foreign policy.
In this book, Danon lays out a roadmap for Israel's future on the
regional and global stage and outlines the path Israel must follow in
order to continue to make a positive contribution to global prosperity
and peace and ensure its safety in a fraught region. As the Jewish state
enters the next phase of its existence, Danon's inspiring vision will
help Israel fulfill the noble vision of its founders.
