Synopsis by Elizabeth Smith

Actor Charlton Heston narrates this documentary about the Six Day War between Israel and the Arabs. The program argues that the Israeli Mossad's intelligence-gathering activities allowed Israel to prevail over the enemy Arab nations. During this program, both Arabs and Israelis share their thoughts about how this short war began and how it was fought. Perhaps the most revealing interview presented is the one with former Israel Mossad Chief Meir Amit. The other interviewees include General Israel Tal, Mordechai Hod, David Kimche, and Faiez Fahed Jaber. The program was filmed in Amman, Jordan, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, New York, and Washington, D.C.
