it's seems wrong. to me. to shape out just because get educated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. i got this 8 millimeter film purely by accident. time period 963 to 65 place damascus. i don't don't know why young. i've watched it many times a man posing the monuments and all poster of the hollywood premiere of town without

pity and a fight in a market so without prisons. i had my doubts if i should waste my time on this but i came back to that film over and over again tracing a sequence of events happening in syria at that time and most of those who worked there the mood on the review. which you'll see neal curiosity is like a perpetual motion machine it lives on without a lunch break and then suddenly i saw him stop let's take another look now at low speed this is key like cohen a super spy who some consider a national hero and others and evil villain an israeli double o. 7. i need because it's but it's them and they at the. at the one. still. 50. and no one would ever see this

footage if it wasn't for an old acquaintance of mine but collector from st petersburg alexei marco. he has an incredible eye for n.t. . he once invited me to his antique shop to show some of the boxes he caught from an apartment on science. it's simple the owners were getting rid of things they didn't need. so political will you know. yes there was only one word syria they gave the boxes to the next day along with the own video camera they said take it we don't need it it goes up long compile it. going into my link here. i don't dump their why young boy ahmed and then. you know which show up are often wayman you partial or you see order which you move in you comments you mean you're clear for

a bar out of the movie or the last. hour when you know our lives are pushed you know how most of the show is blown clothes are lost to clear with the will almost surely mean you know. when you lost people need to keep. up with you from what we knew we didn't know one of the cool couple of course we when you're bored with your moment to look you up and learn and it moves on your own more. than if you were like when she was . that's how i got these films it was handwritten on the boxes the looking and then step by step i began to unravel the story i read in an old leningrad now st petersburg phone book that once 3 people lived in that exact apartment or he's looking for 1918 his wife and their granddaughter yulia.

larissa and so when no longer alive so i found yulia in this town on social networks and that was the 1st piece of the puzzle that was certainly barry's lukin the man that had taken the footage of all damascus and had probably captured him like one on film. alone would. i mean you know by york you'll come toto walk me up the wall you know deal because then you. will see the bag of ideal but this is going to continue. you're going to get this try some of that boom below . cost just because you want to bring it into the garage.

at the most damage in response to. anyone who ever moved to a different apartment knows it's like a natural disaster you'll certainly miss something what kind of care i was that. i could have a bolo. i found lukins commendation missed on the ministry of defense website you only confirms that her grandfather had been in the military he'd been through the war and was awarded the order of the red star 3 times. and the of all. things they were just promotional cost plus. you know talk actual. after the war was over but he's looking and graduated from the military academy in leningrad and was sent to syria in the 1960 s.

he became a high caliber professional in the area of military communication systems but every time you ask her grandfather about his time in syria he don't touch the question when your 3 children but i'm about jumping in also thank god that it. didn't that's a cop just thinks that it will be over the wall of the mysterious to me it's just me or the. normal sort of someone i've given the mozambique i feel most make me warm but i. just know that nobody. yeah you. just like i just lost on me that's what we're trying to find out. looking came to damascus just at the time when who ben show cohen commonly known as eli cohen had been working there a professional spotted man in damascus as they called him in the israeli

intelligence agency mossad he rented an apartment in the city center right across from the syrian ministry of defense headquarters as he had all the talk crosses movements at his fingertips. this is the footage that the soviet signals office a very slow key and captured on film back in 963. the crown video camera made in japan was with him throughout his entire trip. this very camera. any soviet film enthusiasm could only dream of having won. the leather case preserved its original stage. back in 1963 bodies couldn't even imagine him he had probably caught on camera.

but he's looking his 45 years old doc suit bras tie clip and watches no insignia the soviet union doesn't go public on either about the scale of assistance or types of specialists it sends in these are lukins colleagues soviet offices the u.s.s.r. is steadily expanding its military assistance to syria by 963. there were at least $150.00 military advisers and the israeli intelligence agency mossad knew about the presence of bodies looking and other specialists in syria as soon as they arrived. we have to ask for the last 50 people. israeli intelligence agents being like cohen did his job flawlessly and was repeatedly praised by his superiors for reporting

intel on soviet military assistance it was his 1st task. the 2nd to collect information on syrian troop deployments. in the mid $960.00 s. multiple intelligence agencies 4th in a decisive battle for syria as in the entire middle east there was an active redistribution of the spears of influence between the west and the warsaw pact countries serious to the pot being some kind of tug of war between the sides and coups followed one after another in quick succession there was even a joke at the u.s.s.r. defense ministries main intelligence directorate the number of coups in syria is and plus one meaning that no one knew when the next 2 would happen to me. in march 963 the baath party came to power in syria ultimately became a soviet ally it was partially

a victory of soviet intelligence. but it set up so says of us i don't know what. you do so why would the societies because it's in your mind there but you have that sloth and that's a huge in the e.u. to dismiss the smell of a beating in your. book or a cleanse. silicate wasn't only a trial when he came to damascus with his father in the end it medved go officially a task journalist an officially. a soviet intelligence operatives it was his father a soviet spy from whom he got his 1st knowledge about syria it's now possible to speak publicly about it i mean. poets of america i need be opposed to put on say i'm going to. buy the movie. as a billionaire same. syria did not give up on the blessings of western civilization

that is clearly seen in bonnie's lukins footage there were american british and french cars on the streets of damascus driven by diplomats as well as spies and military specialists serviette military specialists are a special cost not only were all of them highly experienced but they've also repeatedly proven themselves trustworthy there were no time in all of studied history. is a bit of this much thought of the goods into. their number and speciality were established by the local come out of the salaries ample for that time from $1000.00 up to $1200.00 a month that's $10.00 to $12.00 times higher than the soviet average in 6 months you could buy the most prestigious car in the u.s. the. military specialists not only trained syrian army personnel but also provided with maintenance. of the means to cheat the you see as you.

will still see. your survival in this shot by a better use lukian also captured soviet military specialists can muster and support that it's nice. if you can use it to do this of civil war. and the state yes she's a little bit signal offices where a particular value buddies lukian worked in an area that turned out to be. quite vulnerable to syria. now it's hard to tell how much he was involved in u.s.s.r. intelligence operations but it's perfectly clear that he was around the soviet spies and was proficiency in transmit a signal into sections of a list who do but she's been said is the easiest me see the data. of bullets you could go to. with them plenty of was the point that i will accept that i the ski to

some of us all this that i do it your thinking it he didn't got that of course a lie cohen tried to be as discreet as possible but at the same time there was an undeniably dint of all spirit about him he lived in damascus under an alias and believed that he could afford not to be ashamed of i the means or acquaintances we mean dealers to a victim blood supply to. the post of us to chill it come. out of the city but ups community oh you i'd say it's over them is i live but cities east seen here and you go to india and the seas. google earth. given that when you look at east you nor your list of cattle in the us it was at the top skinny of the total newbie you. know even the flip them yes it does the police chose to seek the. evil bug got them to save us

a by getting them slip of only one who could have well we could seal the deal. he had begun to trade his powers to the offices of senior syrian officials back in faraway argentina cohen relied on a syrian military attack amin fans he'd made friends with him in buenos aires in the wake of the match 963 revolution this man returned to his homeland and became president of syria cohen was rushed to. i can't show you my face but i'm going to teach you must door in 9093 this man was sentenced to death. they could charge kenny with capital murder even though he didn't have the gun didn't pull the trigger didn't intend to kill anybody imagine living in your bathroom for that week with the scent of

a 23 years. i felt that i deserved to be. confined within 4 grey walls fine it seems it. turned out help him to leave death row. because you lose no on the whole but that it could mean within those in the guy on the edge of the pool sure just as i'm a little slug each post overcome with the fun was due to. start i mean good it's. put me in the put semir she was in sion she certainly figured out how to climb the career ladder to get out in the war so listen because notion of course as it was emotional because in the. she's giving it a go what the good at least i did stick at that making good use thinking through

those of you who don't believe it is to those who cohen was close to the highest authorities of syria as evidenced by this famous picture of him standing on the roof of the prime minister's residence one more could best speech would have been your yeah but that was a good start to clean eastham about all in the almost done just that 7 people he didn't consider probably no other spy in the world had reached such heights. there was yet another job israel's mossad task in lycoming with to expose and eliminate german war criminals. after world war 2 they fled europe and settled in the usa canada great britain and the middle east syria in particular. just to show that because there's a poem in one your story. of what ups community nobody at the bushes just below your cup of syria but at the start treaty distill it and that's who's q i could set

up for you scott to hook up with a cousin but i'm a bit stupid to commute to superman nationally by starting to share c.d.'s but the movie store. where you studio and you put your mother store minutes away one is from susan our friend susan young which i knew would have to go out of the medical bunkum you are up 6030 up 6th on. that i don't think it would would stuart about just sit with numb somebody. sees it but don't study just compute that bit within the story that will change and see is the redskins. he said right now there's a bush it's more that is there any meat but on the system by the sea even the those new which would be that even he can essentially since spoke with the question must be decoded slowly to see the ego does not oppose the will to vote you. see me but if you instead i'm good you can but i see misty and that's why the

buddha and mr herder when you know some of those you see double to try and do good and we see these liberality i used to go out it's easy i will give you but he take you to do he could of us he fled easy a look to see and use my smug receive in there with the will so shows any particular of what sienese and even he stood out in a poignant sit down never mind about on the top and form a war criminals who had ended up in syria tried to exploit this discord. and i with the main targets of israeli intelligence. all over the wont including syria for own side of the might have wills that which they would not when you start a near you believe the covering call from the. a lot of fronts right amount immediately after the arrest of former nazi and friend. secretly took hofmann out of argentina where he lived under an assumed name to tel aviv for a show trial it was then the largest victory for israeli intelligence.

during world war 2 i when together with participated in developing the madagascar plan to resettle jews from europe they were involved in killing people in the gas chambers. to use up to the trial and execution of eichmann in tel aviv in one cohen found throughout america in damascus he lived under the alias of 1st sorry you cohen notified tel of the tomorrow i'm going to resign rio it's going to. brazil rio is friends right about. it's going to . back them one minute a weapon of choice was a letter bomb cohen prepared his gift for former execution of friends around america but the assassination attempt failed something went wrong there was only a small part. but it's a good bit of

a look at the congo below him yet. most of the troika sees it is that those at the moment that some would say that some say that this particular mission brought the mossad agent in damascus eli cohen under the close scrutiny of the syrian counterintelligence service at least one of the clues pointed to him but there was no direct evidence tying him to the attempt this ran counter to the official position of damascus which was seeking or approach went with the u.s. as. to run amok and was later released on medical grounds and he voluntarily surrendered to the off arteries of the federal republic of germany a soviet officer signalman berries lukens told this intricately woven plot on unraveling while he was stationed in syria in the. enter of damascus was where all our protagonist screwed run into each other at some point and considering they lived there for about 3 years there's a very good chance that it indeed happened. actually the own town was where bodies

lukin used most of his 8 millimeter films dog. and then one day but he's lucky and turned his camera on and he is who in court let's see it in slow motion. and again. business law of the star a good of the of you didn't believe. that i was going to screw into the movie instill in some of us so we could. bust out of the court on. the day feel like oh i'm an israeli spy and started it and 30 am he turned on the radio to listen to some arab tunes that were played by request it meant that mossad transmitted data related to a new mission the introduction to every song contain parts of the code.

his greatest achievement was passing classified information about the position of the syrian troops on the golan heights this is the key strategic location that syria could use to annihilate israel and vice versa. it was with the pursuit to deal that's going to. be a difference on the mia suniel 2 that those are so you had in the past someone to that is yes that's true thing you see in them. if you didn't know stubbornly go with that uses the. stomach would take a thought in this but it's even the mushroom his own symptom. although. i don't. get the feel of it. a brazil win them. go but it's the considered to the top ski when cohen passed intelligence to tel aviv it caused radio interference from the radio listeners in his neighborhood the syrian secret service started getting complaints

from staff members of nearby embassies cities of. the us that since you can give it a by yet so still the police hold that. opinion. in the in the dark. it was january 19th 65 when israeli agents in mikoyan was tracked by intelligence services. which is noted of course in the wrong city. it was in the national. it's been said about old mrs purcell east. doesn't go in your butcher and across the sami but you're going to. succumb to the martyr souse of the liquid they're not going to smooth things the minute. mr their shoes are. in use the studio soldiers and several plain clothes men entered cohen's apartment right when he was using a radio to transmit some messages to tel aviv cohen was caught red handed.

he was a sickly in this post about to do in your grill a priest on the bumper of the cities because. he was going to use a. new that got the british c.d.'s an immediate rush and you could go in the queue . you know with a sim. i knew putting snow boots the only national. understood i knew. going was sentenced to capital punishment by hanging as someone who had caused irreparable damage to syria in israel he's held as a hero his country for his extra. they used all diplomatic means possible heads of various states interceded on his behalf the queen of the united kingdom and the pope among them but syrian all therapies were adamant this was war and cohen was an

enemy of syria. his execution in damascus was broadcast live. corner by these then the close of the murder. mysteries of the noble born the cousin e. e. solicits with the such beauty. you wore it was so this that's not. mean. does that sound that the bush the blue the skies of you do give species it has met needs because in addition. to me your store commune wards too but it was all there were but you said to me a just i'm sure then you can see many of them poor in the by the stick by them to but more the. then the coffin with the spines body was taken to an unknown destination israel has been trying to repatriate his remains ever since.

there's no direct evidence that bodies knew can personally played a part in exposing co and that it was he who narrowed down the area where the israeli spy was found that he was in the car that scout the city of course not. much but he's looking wrongs in damascus at that time people formed his duties as a military signalman and his tour in syria and to deny it in 65 the year that cohen could become a serious adverse free for syria and the soviet union was executed. see the a star let him in the boat him i miss them dear so yes he said use. him

it's we've got so much melissa you can hear. or see didn't believe it there it was she of weasel a schedule one i knew. i was in the post is pretty just you who does ginny to see it and i would have you do this it's just been so nice that this is just an it's got almost delusional because of on your p.c. just cities of war who skis will nick at opposition by yelling about you in the biz you know going to muller. that it's such a such campus but don't see any. of that it was selected. as so biased on the socialist i was there that you number. one i was piecing together the course of events from the mid $960.00 s. that old film poster from barry's lukins tapes kept popping up in my. town without pity. that was what damascus had become for israeli spy like own.

as the trump presidency comes to wind the country stares into a political abyss divisions are deeper no than ever before and dialogue is almost nonexistent cause of compromise that is deemed to be treasonous by many this will hardly change on january 20.
