"[Speaking German]" "Now, here it comes." "[Chaim] Ah." "Hold it." "Come back, General." "We want to take a good look at you." "Ah, ah." "That's it." "This is Schiller." "Do you recognize him?" "[All] No." "I cannot." "Question, this shy, nameless civilian" "Who turned up in a Syrian news photo last week" "Hiding from the camera." "Observe, is this Schiller?" "Camera shy you think?" "No." "He knows he is a wanted war criminal." "He's no fool." "But let me remind you all" "We are not after Schiller, the Nazi War Criminal." "We are after Schiller, The Arab Tank Expert." "We dug up a mile of film on his tanks, North Africa." " France." " Even the destruction" "Of the Warsaw Ghetto, but this is the best." "Correction, the only film we got on Schiller himself." "Tall, blonde." "I think Aaron is right." "It's worth a gamble." "If we can't find a tall, blonde Nazi in Syria..." "A blonde head in a news photo captioned "Somewhere in the Middle East"" "Does not qualify as proof that Schiller is in Syria." "[Knock on door]" "Yes?" "More information on Schiller," "From Austria." "We hear from Prague this afternoon." "You talk about proof." "We know for a fact from intelligence reports he was in Cairo in the summer," "In Beirut when the United Nations voted for partition," "In Jordan, a month ago." "We know there's a heavy concentration of tanks in Syria." "Somebody high up in charge, who else but Schiller?" "You wish to go Nazi hunting?" "To find a man you can't identify by sight" "Who most assuredly is not calling himself Gustav Schiller." "How will you find him?" "With a divining rod?" "Give me five men, I think I can find him." "My dear friend, I admire your zeal." "The Haganah cannot risk lives on guess work." "The Haganah!" "The Haganah is supposed to be an army." "We'll soon be the Army of Israel." "If we can't risk lives," "What are we wasting our time for?" "Now says the United Nations." "Now let the State of Israel be born." "Ready we say." "Delighted we say." "But how do we stop the tanks?" "We can plant the whole border with mines, can we?" "Where do we plant them?" "On Aaron's kibbutz?" "On mine?" "Where?" "When the British move out on May 14, Chaim" "The Arab tanks move in." "Wait a minute, wait a minute!" "I think I found something." "What?" "The missing piece." "The way to identify Schiller." "Good morning." "Good morning." "What's holding him up, Conklin?" "Mr. Conklin." "Mister." "We might have to cut it down." "Take your time, I've got all day." "I haven't." "You seem rather nervous this morning, Stein." "I don't like to see good things damaged." "Let's see what you've got in there." "Ah, yes, a machine lathe." "To turn out guns, illegally?" "To repair tractors." "Your tractors seem to break down rather more than the usual." "They're used more than usual." "Anyway, it's a perfectly legal shipment" "Approved by the British Authorities." "I presume you wouldn't mind signing for them, Stein?" "Mister." "That will be the day!" "OK." "Just a minute, Stein." "I haven't finished yet." "Oh." "Open it up." "What for?" "Just open it up." "All right." "Merry Christmas, Stein." "And a Happy Hanukkah, to you." "There's nobody following." "[Coughing and gasping]" "She's dead." "Wait." "Let's get out of here." "Which one are you?" "Which one are you?" "Judith." "Judith Auerbach." "The kibbutz is right up ahead there." "On the hill." "Everything is shared here." "Our work, our hopes." "Our lives." "Those are banana plants." "Twenty acres." "Over there, plums, peaches." "Best thing we are raising is people." "220 of us from 18 different countries." "From the bare ground, we built this." "[Kids singing]" "[Chickens clucking]" "I'll take care of the other one." "Come on." "Rachel." "Rachel, this is Judith Auerbach." "This is Rachel Morris, our doctor." "Hello, Judith." "Hello, Doctor." " Just call me Rachel." " See you later." "Aaron, what about the other one?" "She didn't make it." "She's dead." "Oh." "Well, shouldn't I at least examine her?" "What for?" "That's the one we need." " Shalom." " Shalom." "I'm the one he needs." "Like I'm some piece..." "I know, I know." "He has a lot on his mind." "So do I." "Now, shall we get started?" "With what?" "A physical examination." "I'm fine." "We have to find your blood type." " Red." " And check for infection." "I'm just dirty on the outside." "And after the examination, we'll take care of that too." "It's cold." "It's cold!" "[Rachel] That towel is right behind you." "What's next?" "Are you going to shave off my hair?" "We are through." "You can get dressed now." " I want my own clothes." " They're in the laundry." "I'll wait, then I'll show you where you live." "Hannah!" "Hannah?" "Good morning, Rachel." "Your new neighbor, Hannah." "This is Judith." "Shalom." "You just arrived?" "For the holidays." "I will show her around and you can talk later." "Of course." " We have a lot to talk about." " I hope so." "Well, this is it." "Rough, but home." "It will do." "You are alone, that's something." "That's everything." "What's that?" "What's that for?" "What do you think?" "I'm a woman." "Although you wouldn't know it in these clothes." "No, I mean the gun." "For protection." "All right." "But weapons are forbidden by the British." "Hide it." "Orders!" "Orders!" "You are like the police." "Don't say that." "We have rules." "You live here, you'll follow them." "Don't forget, you sent for me." "Name?" "Auerbach." "Nationality?" "Austrian." "Parents?" "Dead, killed." "Married?" "I don't know." "Maybe the law, but not in the meaning." "Children?" "Children?" "None, now." "Internment?" "Dachau." "Wiesbaden." "Number?" "859643." "Occupation?" "Oh well." "I will put down "general labor"." " I want to talk with you." " Not now, later, I'm busy." "Busy?" "Loafing in an office, cool and clean," "While they send me out to sweat like a common field hand." "Look at me." "They spent an hour scrubbing me." "For what?" "This?" "They're trying to wash the past off you." "That's the honest dirt of the future." "A philosopher!" "If there's anything I hate" "When things are bad, it's a philosopher." "Judith, we all have to work around here." "Not me!" "I didn't come here to build your kibbutz or keep it running." "I came to find Gustav Schiller." "And you sent for me!" "You said you could find him!" "If you can identify him, yes." "Show him to me." "I will identify him like a cockroach." "[Gunfire]" "Arabs!" "Come on!" "Get back, go away." "[Guns blasting]" "[Men shouting]" "Beyond that hill is the Syrian border." "Sometimes they fire at us just to annoy us." "Sometimes they mean business." "Danny!" "Danny!" "What's it look like?" "I give it two minutes." "I don't want to sound a general alarm unless I have to." "I'll wait." "They won't attack with the British here." "They would do anything to drive us out." "Then it is stupid to stay." "Where do we go back to?" "Belsen, Auschwitz?" "The Warsaw Ghetto?" "That's you're worry, not mine." "Let's get down to my problem." "Your problem is right here." "Survival!" "You're a Jew, like the rest of us!" "I'm a race of my own called Judith." "The independent state of me." " Danny?" " No flags, no bibles," "No wars to make a better world." "Just plain Judith." "[Gunshots continue]" "Where are you going?" "You're could get killed before we finish what we started." "It's important to me." "The independent state of Judith seems to be needing help already." "[Phone ringing]" "Poppies." " Poppies!" " Poppies!" "Good afternoon, Mr. Stein." "Good afternoon, Major Lawton." "It's good quality metal." "Ideal for rifle barrels." "Which of course is precisely what you've been making on this." "It's for tractor parts." "I suppose I shall confiscate this." "We need it." "I heard there was fighting" "And firing on the border, earlier today." "Yes." "We didn't start it." "You're not supposed to possess weapons." "You're not supposed to let the Arabs in." "One can't be everywhere." "We have to be." "I have 200 men to guard a whole area against 30,000 Arabs." "I am a soldier, under orders." "If you keep on smuggling, making, hiding arms and ammunition," "I shall have eventually to take this kibbutz apart stone by stone." "If you do, you'll make a lot of people homeless." "You won't find anything." "Don't you realize it's come to the breaking point?" "It's a matter of which breaking point you are talking about." "Yours is patience, mine is survival." "That's well put," "But I didn't come here to debate old issues." "I came here to draw the line, clearly, like that." "The matter of illegal immigrants." " We've nothing to do..." " I've heard it all." "Your friends send them and you have no choice but to receive them here." "Without proper clothing or food or protection." "Yet you go on and on." "We've nothing to do with immigrants." "Please let me finish." "If only you'd bide your time," "You could bring them in safely, properly, but you won't." "And the whole thing has become a bloody wasteful tragedy." "You're killing British soldiers wantonly." "Young fellows who don't even know what this is all about." "What about our people?" "Well, what about them?" "They die on ship or they die in the surf." "They die trying to kill us." "They die in the frightful heat of this back-alley piece of dirt" "Trying to turn it into paradise." "Paradise will never be built on a mountain of death." "It depends what you're prepared to die for." "You may make the choice for your own," "But you'll kill no more of my men." "Now listen, Stein," "One more shipment of illegals, just one," "I will pack you and every living soul on this kibbutz" "Back to Cyprus." "And I can do it." "Not alive, you can't." "Of course." "That's your best weapon." "Lives for principles." "Stop fiddling about with that damn engine block and do something useful." "You're only doing it because I'm here." "Hasn't been used for months." "It came out of the tractor this morning, it was stalling." "Stalling indeed." "Perhaps it was all these cobwebs up the spout." "It's a pity." "What?" "That we are not on the same side." "That's always the way." "A good soldier is made by the quality of his opposition." "Mr. Carstairs." "Oh, Major Lawton." "This is Judith." " How do you do?" " Hello." "She was just walking by and she stopped to ask for directions or something." " You're new here, aren't you?" " She certainly is." "No, I was here before you were ever in this area." "I've been at another kibbutz, teaching school." "I'm Aaron's girl." "Oh really?" "Congratulations, old man." "What kibbutz?" "Should we tell him, dear?" "Matsuva." "Dachau." "All right Toby." " Carry on Sergeant." " Embus men." "You should have more sense than to come here." " They could've arrested you." " They didn't." "You're angry because of what I'm wearing." "I don't care what you wear." "But why take chances, to show your legs to soldiers." "I came to finish our talk." " You can do it this evening." " I haven't got time to waste." "Neither do I!" "I'm not in your army." "Next time you come to see me." "Hannah." "People are staring." "You caused quite a stir, Judith." "I don't care one way or the other." "Some carrots." "To look like you must be a wonderful feeling." "You really think so?" "Try it for a year." "Me?" "No, it's not possible." "I'm a lump." "She's all right." "Nothing, just another girl." "Just another girl." "Like a diamond is just another rock." "How can you eat like that and still keep your shape?" "I eat when I can." "Some days I don't always find food." "You'll always find it here." "I'm not planning to stay." " No?" " A few days, a week at the most." " Where will you go?" " Wherever I have to." "[Loud blasting]" "[People shouting, whimpering]" "[Guns blasting]" "Take the women away quickly!" "Keep us covered as we go down." "They've set fire to the barn." " You cover the checkpoint." " All right." "Sammy, come on." "How'd they get past the guards?" "Let's get the ammunition." "[Man shouting]" "[Cattle moaning]" "Come on, let's hurry!" "Come on!" " Hurry up!" " Open the gates!" "Get the ammunition out." "[Shouting, grunting]" "Get the ammunition and the animals!" "[Cattle moaning]" "[Men shouting, screaming]" "All clear." "Get out!" "Come on!" "Hurry it up!" "Get them out!" " Come on!" " Get out!" "All right, let's go." "[Blasting continues]" "You seem to have won the fight." "If we hadn't, you'd be lying with your throat cut by now." "Maybe." "Maybe not." "What kind of person are you?" "I don't care what you think." "You know what time it is?" "Middle of the night." "Early morning." "I'm accustomed to the nightlife." "I can imagine." "You have a certain annoying persistence." "Because you've been avoiding me." "I been at the beach sunbathing." "I can't afford to lose time." "It's the only thing I have left that's valuable." "You think you're alone in that?" "We fought tonight for time," "And we paid for it." "A barn, animals." "A machine shop full of tools." "Guns, ammunition." "And what's more important, two men," "Three wounded, one seriously." "If you're so concerned about time, why didn't you help us instead of running away to hide?" "I came too far to be killed by a stray Arab bullet" "Or to stand around crying with you at your wailing wall." "I could kick you out of that door and down the stairs." "I'll let you if you tell me where to find Gustav Schiller." "I don't know." "In Trieste the Haganah told me." "They told you exactly what we told them to say." "You dirty liar," "To bring me here for nothing." "I spent nearly three years of my life" "Walking every street of every city in Europe searching for Schiller." "I didn't lie you." "He's here somewhere in the Middle East." "We don't know exactly where," "And you're the only one who can identify him." "Identify him for what purpose?" "The Arabs are using heavy tanks" "And Schiller is teaching them how to use them." "You plan to kill him?" "Capture him." "Interrogate him." "There are no photographs of him anywhere" "And you would recognize him on sight, you were his wife." "I was his victim." "Waiting here I can be caught in this war and never get out." "You lived." "You are better off than six million others." "Don't lecture me on the values of life or death." "Do you have one of these?" "No, I fought in the Jewish Brigade," "Attached to the British Army." "Dachau was no rest home." "Dachau." "Dachau, that's all you ever talk about." "I know about you." "You ate the best food, you drank the best wine." "You comforted men exhausted from exterminating Jews in a brothel in Wiesbaden." "You want me to tell you how much I liked it?" "I did." "I shouted with happiness when my husband abandoned his Jewish wife and child." "I screamed with pleasure when they tore Karl out of my arms at the separation center." "And you should see how I laughed" "When they dragged him away from me calling, "Mother, Mother!"" "Every good thing in me died over and over again." "I fought too." "I fought insanity." "I fought suicide." "I fought death." "I kept something of me alive all this time" "For one reason alone." "To bring Gustav Schiller to justice." "And I will." "I will." "I brought some clean things from the laundry." "What's the time?" "A little after nine." "I drank some wine." "I said nothing." "How's Jacob?" "Jacob died, this morning." "Just as the sun came up." "Jacob, Sam, Miki." "You, me." "Judith." "No exceptions on the kibbutz." "Should there be?" "What's bothering you, Rachel?" "She doesn't belong here." "She's not one of us." "She's a homeless woman who served her time in a camp and lost her son." "She's more one of us than most of us are." "She doesn't believe in us!" "She eats our food but won't share the work." "If she had a broken leg, would you put her out to work in the field?" "Don't be foolish." "She has a broken mind." "Give it time to heal." "There, there." "Amman the fifth, tanks redeployed the 8th." "Beirut, the 16th." "Tanks redeployed the 19th." "Since then, there is no pattern." "Just a hundred daggers pointed at our throats." "Your Schiller has gone underground." "So deep, we cannot pick up his scent." "So now, we must sniff out a new trail." "British Personnel and Records." "They've already been moved from Jerusalem to Haifa." "Here they've been assembled" "Preparing to move everything out by the 14th." "Our report is, their German War Criminal file" "Is in Haifa Headquarters now." "Aaron, I've worked up a perfect raid plan." "But, Chaim..." "Said, no." "If we miss, no second chance." "There are other ways." "We will try them all." "Your Judith, is a difficult girl I hear." "Why not?" "She feels cheated." "We didn't promise her a promenade on the Upper Galilee." "We promised her Schiller." "Exactly." "She detests kibbutz life, eh?" "Well, let her leave, for Haifa." "You seem protective." "You think she wants or needs protection?" "Doesn't want it but she needs it, I think." "Against herself, despite herself." "What do we want her to do?" "What she wants to do." "What she came here to do." "To find Schiller." "She is an adult." "You cannot graft a conscience on her now." "She may find it for herself when she finds Schiller." "How much can we tell her?" "Only one thing." "The British file on German War Criminals" "Is in Haifa." "Aaron, we have another little job for you and your kibbutz." "This one may compensate you for the risk." "Anyway, what choice have we got?" "Another refugee ship left from Marseille last Tuesday," "Strictly against our orders." "They are a double violator because they are also carrying ammunition." "Take charge of the landing." "The ammo is yours." "Help make up for the fire losses." "Thank you, Eli." "Shalom." "Shalom." "Something to see, eh?" "Are you counting the soldiers among them?" "Tomorrow's early graves?" "What do we do without soldiers?" "Probably a lot better." "Do you want to work with the children?" "No." "I would like to be with my own child, Karl." "If he only lived." "It's possible." "Some of the children lived, somehow." "I would have known by now." "I would have heard." "You are going after illegal immigrants tonight." "Refugees." "Take me along." "Put me on the boat." "I want to get out of here." "I can't do that, if they catch you at sea, they'll put you in Cyprus for a long time." "Didn't that British Major say he'd send everyone here to Cyprus" "If he caught you with immigrants again?" "He did." "The risk is the same to me." "That Major doesn't strike me as a man you can play tricks with." "He's an officer, but he's sentimental." "And you are not?" "I'm as sentimental as you are." "That's good." "Because nothing will keep me here but news of Gustav Schiller." " We are trying." " How?" "The Haganah are searching," "But it's a pity we're not more friendly with the British." "They have lists, probably in Haifa." "Of German Officers?" "Of Nazi War Criminals and where they fled to." "Unless we can find them," "We have to work it out ourselves." "Back to work." "[Whistles]" " Shalom." " Shalom." "Everything ready?" "Yes." "Look." "There she is." "Let's get everybody down." "[Whistle]" "[Car horn]" "Reckless bloody Jews." " Corporal." " Sir." "Shall we keep your racial opinions to yourself." "Very good, sir." " [Dog barking] - [Whistling]" "[Israeli folk music playing]" "[Group singing in Hebrew]" "Major Lawton." "Good evening, Doctor." "Good evening." "If you're looking for Aaron, he's not here." "Oh." "Haganah business?" "Taking some of our produce to the market in Jerusalem." "A rather pedestrian job for an Army Officer, don't you think?" "One time soldier, now a Kibbutznik." "Would you join me in a cup of tea?" "I'd be delighted." "All right, Corporal, smoke if you want." "Thank you, sir." "Lemon?" "Sugar?" "Plain." "Good, we're out of sugar." "Thank you." "I get a strange feeling." "Maybe you need a doctor?" "Or a large gin." "I see a night of celebration." "Still it's odd, there's not a man in sight." "Some on guard duty, some on their way to Jerusalem." "Others, dancing." "I've just heard from Middle East Command." "They're trebling, the night patrol." "There are now three destroyers lying off this area." "Our government have an Arab commitment" "While we stay in Palestine." "Our orders are precise," "To prevent a landing at any cost." "I'll tell Aaron when I see him." "You mean if you see him again." "It's not a question of what they are doing is it, but where?" "They're on their way to Jerusalem." "Like all good pilgrims." "[Singing continues]" "I've got work to do." "Tell Aaron a new man's taking over tomorrow." "Major Shingleton." "Good man," "But tough as Army beef." "Heart like a cactus." "Well, well." "Julie." "Aaron's girl." "My name is Judith." "Yes, of course." "Of course." "Judith." "Thank you for the tea." "I think I'll take a farewell stroll around the kibbutz with Judith." "Come on, come on." "What was the kibbutz where you were teaching?" "We told you once." "Tell me again." "Matsuva." "I don't even believe that you are Aaron's girl." "I'm illegal." " I don't belong on a kibbutz." " What?" "I came here only to look for somebody" "And then get out." "Who, if I may be so inquisitive?" "General Gustav Schiller." "Tank commander, German army." "You came to a kibbutz to find a Nazi General?" "Was he a friend of yours?" "He was my husband." "What are you going to do, Judith?" "Find some way out of here and to continue to search." "I wish I could help you." "I'm afraid I can't do very much." "I'm being transferred to Haifa Headquarters tomorrow." "Please try to look on me as a friend." "If ever you pass that way," "Don't hesitate to contact me." "Are you serious, Major?" "I wouldn't have said it otherwise." "Things went well last night I hear." "For us, but we are not always so lucky." "Nathan, do me a big favor." "Sure, anything." "Give me a ride out of here." "That's, that's something else." "Only to the main road." "I have some business to do in Haifa." "Ask Aaron." "Well, it's personal." "I don't know," "I'm supposed to have permission before I take this lorry out of here." "So should you." "I'll only be gone a few hours, nobody will miss me." "Maybe when I come back, I'll go to work for you." "As your assistant mechanic." "You're a mechanic?" "My father built tractors." "I know all about it." " No fooling?" " No fooling." "Carburetor, manifold, air filter, plugs," "Points, generator." "You really know." "And besides, you are the only friend I have here." "All right, during lunch, down by the tractor shed." "What are you doing?" "I have to change." "I cannot do it on the open highway." "Oh, sure." "I was trying to avoid something on the road." "Are you watching the road?" "All the time." "Good." "Keep on watching it." " Zip it up, please." " Huh?" "Zip it up." "Thank you, Nathan." "I hope you won't get in to trouble." "It was worth it." "Goodbye, Judith." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." "[All chattering]" "[Men singing]" "[Horn blaring]" "Come on, open up!" "Hold it." "What are you lot up to now?" "Come on sarge, let us in." "We're on urgent business." "You are on urgent business, are you?" "Official of course." "Everything we do is official." " Who are you, miss?" " Judith." "Now you know who she is, let us through." "She can't get in without a pass." "Come on sergeant." "You can stretch a point can't you then?" "All right." "Who is she here to see?" "Major Lawton." "Let them in." "Do the same for you, one day." " Well?" " Yes?" "Big slob Nathan, fell for it." "Played the fool." "She's gone to Haifa by thumb." "Good." "The Haganah will follow her every inch of the way." "We may be lucky." "Aaron?" "What?" "Forget it." "Forget what?" "Nothing." "Nathan?" "I like her, that's all." "Is that a crime?" "Major Lawton, I need your help." "Please, won't you sit down?" "What kind of help do you need, Judith?" "The German War Criminal files have come here from Jerusalem." "You have them." "Your people are well informed." "Give me the file on Gustav Schiller." "[Laughs] I'm afraid it isn't as easy as that." "Yes, Major, it is." "For you, maybe." "For me, there's a small matter of a soldiers conscience." "And there is a small thing called justice." "That's all I'm asking for." "Look, Judith, I hate to sound so British," "But I have a military duty to consider." "Duty?" "It's one of those big words that hides all sorts of smallness." "It has been used in that way, yes." "But not by me, I hope." "It's the word they used when they tortured." "When they burned people in the gas ovens." "A soldier was doing his duty when he killed my son." "There is something called human responsibility, isn't there?" "There is." "I think you might grant me my share in that." "Otherwise, you and many of your friends" "Would be in detention camps on Cyprus." "I know, I know." "That's why I came to you." "My dear, try to understand," "I can't just make you a gift of an official file." "Life has taught me not to expect gifts." "I will pay for it." "Where are you staying?" "I don't know yet." "I'll try to arrange a room at a hotel downtown." "Where is your luggage?" "I can arrange for that too." "Manure means powder." "Sea means shells." "Come on, Aaron." "Sign." "Make it snappy." "It's 4:00, I have to get back to Haifa." "Any other news?" "Better check the powder." "I went through an irrigation ditch to dodge the road block." "What about Judith?" "Judith?" "Judith, um..." "She was installed yesterday in a hotel on Kingsway by Major Lawton." "Left her in the lobby." "Took her shopping later." "Left her on her door step." "This gallant, old-fashioned courtship" "Could go on forever." "We're running out of time." "Well, we're betting on her." "We have controls on the phone and the hotel." "You'll hear as soon as we do." " Shalom." " Shalom." "[Lawton] Judith, I am downstairs." "May I come up?" "Yes, please do." "[Knocking]" " [Knocking]" " Yes?" "I'm sorry I am late." "I've been having a rather difficult time of it." "Look at me, Judith." "You're looking at a battlefield." "Major Lawton's conscience put up a bloody battle, but I won." "I don't like the idea of that file leaving Palestine" "To gather dust in some cellar in London," "But I do like the thought of simple justice" "Catching up with Gustav Schiller." "I'm grateful to you." "Very grateful to you." "You've kept your part of the bargain." "And you intend to keep yours now?" "A duty, or a human responsibility?" "Judith, you've got re-learn part of your life." "This is a gift from me to you." "Freely given and gladly." "I have been living for this." "That's what worries me." "What will you do with it now that you've got it?" "I don't know." "I'll find a way." "Thank you." "No, thank you." "I feel extremely virtuous." "Granted, not much like a soldier," "More like a human being." "Take care." "[Knock on door]" "Yes?" "Who is it?" "Aaron's friends, Miss Auerbach." "Miss Auerbach?" "Yes?" "Miss Auerbach, we must congratulate you." "For what?" "Schiller's dossier." "We've never seen a faster, smoother job." "I don't know what you're talking about." "We know what we've heard." "Come on." "Where is it?" "Let's go." "I have nothing to give you." "Nothing." "Get out of here!" "Get out of here!" "Leave me alone!" "Leave me alone!" "No, it's mine!" "No!" "No, no!" "No, it's mine!" "It's mine!" "No!" "So we used you." "Yes, of course." "When you came here, you were willing to use us." "You used the Major." "If you'd got hold of this address, you'd have kept it to yourself." "Now everybody is rewarded." "You and I win General Gustav Schiller." "Damascus." "Yes, the Syrian capital." "Now we have a plan how to get him." "We slip into Syria tonight by boat," "Across the Sea of Galilee." "We only have four days to get there." "Find him, get him and bring him back." "If we are caught, we'll be lucky to be shot." "Hurry, the Syrian patrol will be back in 15 minutes." "We'll be back here the day after tomorrow at midnight, for five minutes only." "We're gonna do that for three nights." "What happens if we don't get back on time?" "You'll have to go underground until we contact you some other way." "Shalom, come with me." "[Man singing over PA]" "[Man] We continue our tour of Damascus" "By visiting one of the most beautiful examples of Islamic architecture," "The Amachiad Mosque." "This way, please."
