Скачать или смотреть How Mossad Turned a Telephone Into a Weapon? The Swiss Banker Assassination

In 1983, a private banker in Zurich died at his desk after answering a routine phone call. The official cause: natural cardiac arrest. But within hours, the telephone itself vanished—destroyed before forensic analysis could be completed. The death certificate was rewritten three times. Swiss counter-intelligence flagged the case as "externally influenced but politically non-actionable." What really killed Klaus Eisner?

This is the story of the Zurich Banker Assassination, one of Cold War espionage's most enduring unsolved mysteries. Intelligence folklore claims the telephone receiver itself was coated with contact poison—a method so elegant it left no witnesses, no evidence, and complete plausible deniability. Whether true or not, the case became a teaching tool across intelligence services worldwide, illustrating how ordinary objects can be weaponized and how assassinations need not look violent to be devastatingly effective.
Eisner managed forty million dollars in covert funds for intelligence operations across Europe. He knew which Western agencies were running operations in the East, which Soviet officials were preparing to defect, and which exile groups had real backing. When he signaled intent to cooperate with investigators, he became a liability multiple intelligence services needed to manage.

Discover the tradecraft, the theories, and the strategic brilliance behind a death that was never proven but never forgotten—an operation that achieved its objective through uncertainty rather than certainty, and weaponized the absence of evidence as effectively as any physical tool.
