What a powerful series The Spy was. And it managed to be sympathetic to both sides, even though Eli Cohen and the Israelis were the clear protagonists. Who knew Sacha Baron Cohen could act so well? Eli Cohen has got to be one of the bravest dudes that ever lived. I can't imagine going on for years in that situation. RIP.
Alexander Kloumann i was alsi impressed by Sacha Baron Cohen’s performance. After the mini series I was so impressed that I start reading about this extraordinary man, and then I came to this special video.
@Edna Turner take a chill pill and learn to read. I didn't say what actually occurred to Eli Cohen was gorgeous but the creative recount of the story was. You know....Art?
Sacha Baron Cohen did a great job portraying him. If not bec of Netflix series, many ppl do not know an important history Israel's adv espionage at the time.
@@berly9397 I sincerely hope so. But it is the responsibility of the older generation to inform the generation of today of their history and how they got to where they are now. It wasn't magic but by painful sacrifices made by patriotic men like Eli Cohen.
Emmanuel Ibe Amen! 🙏🙏🙏💕💕 Eli Cohen, Baruch Dayan Ha’emet! And you guys are totally right. I’m in my 20’s, and American, thanks to this video.... I now know this great HERO, of our people, Eli Cohen!
If only Eli would have stayed back home on his last trip. Not only would Israel still have a great victory, but Eli would have done even more great things in the Mossad. My admiration and respect to him for his bravery and commitment to his country, will stay with me forever.
While I was watching the show, I became so attached to it that for few days I stopped watching the last episode where he is caught and hanged. I was so tense about it that I felt like by not watching the show I can somehow stop Eli from being caught and hanged. I do not have courage to see him dying.
Hi there human, I'm Indian and It was so emotional to see Eli hanged, but now Eli's remains has been buried some where in Syria, The Syrian government is not give back his remains I saw a video where Syria's ex president son knows where the body is but he was asking 1 million And the deal got cancelled I think all humans of out planet can try and raise 1 million..... Idk when humans will start living as one planetary species 😐
I’m from Israel and I think that my country should have talked about him more and he needs to be remembered as a brave man who sacrificed his life for his country the ramat Golan need to be named by his name and it’s make me sad that I’m from Israel and until this series on Netflix I didn’t know how important he was!
I knew this story for 2 decades now. my husband has a large literacy of all kind of books about Israel. having a house in Rosh pinna, northern israel is the most beautiful area of the country. I always travel all over the Golan with the most beautiful views. you are 1000% right, I dont know why there is not a single monument in all that area let alone a memorial for Eli COHEN a true hero who sacrificed his life for perfect strangers like me to set a foot in the Golan.
I 've been to Golan Heights way back Nov.2017 for a tour of Israel and have seen some remnants of war the existing bunkers.Its strategical location is an advantage overlooking the surrounding valleys and plains which the Israelis were able to occupied.To Eli Cohen,I heard about his name to be consider a hero for sacrificing himself and not to be forgotten.
@@syrianatheist817 The Golan heights was taken by Israeli military in 1967, the six days war. It's part of Israel now and one of the tourists attraction.
I just finished binge watched the spy on Netflix and that's why I had to see this as Well . Amazing mini series and Sacha Cohen was brilliant as Eli . Great story and what a great brave man Eli Cohen was .
@@woodchipper3538 Ahahaha yeah , at times I found myslef thinking there's no way this is the same guy that puts on strap on dildos and chases guys around lol goes to show he really is talented and can do drama as well .
Josiah Mctavish me too. He was a remarkable spy. Incredible story. I don't think Netflix did him justice. No matter what side you are on you can't deny that he was the real deal
wow what an amazing story of a spy who risked everything for his country. Thanks to Netflix for the series which made me look for this video. May God rest his soul in peace.
what overall role do they play?, pedophile ring rent-a-pig security detail. Operation and functuality is Coward in origin. As expected, due to duty descriptions.
@@hannagg9365 Wow look at you, showing your real face, so you're happy 100,000s inocent Japanese were burned alive? Not soldiers to be clear, but CIVILIANS. You're nasty person.
Wow hanna... japan is my fav country how dare u insult japan... japan is pride japan is strong japan is one of the world powerful country japan does not scare of your bomb... because japan can overcome anything.. even tsunami cant mess with japan less ur bombs. Tsssk shame on you woman.
What is this from India bS? What this has to do with you? So fake this love from India. Israel buying Indians to say positive things. Let me try Love from Pakistan.
rubber band man....wait, I thought Borat was from Kazakhstan 😂🤣 Not Israel? Humor aside, Master Spy Eli Cohen had mad skills to get so close to the president of 🇸🇾. Imagine, being a deputy Minister of Defense of a county you’re spying on? It’s a like a buffet of information at your beckon call.
What a heroic man Eli was, he was so good he was among the elite rulers of Syria. Eli's name will live on forever ,he was a true hero and patriot of Israel. God Bless the Israelis
Otto Von Eichmann III You call yourself a Christian. You filth. Quoting the Bible. You vile hypocrite. Here’s a verse for you. I think it’s John 2:19 Shut The Fuck Up
Eli Cohen was a brave man and highly honorable toward his duty to Israel. Lets Never forget however and always keep in mind that it is God who is behind all of Israel's Victory's! All through the Old Testament, we see that it was God who saved Israel through his "obedient" people. It is the God of Israel who deserves All Praise, Glory & Honor First and foremost.,
You're absolutely right Hanna...He did know what he was doing! Thank goodness there are men & women who push complacency aside and are willing to give their lives to stand up for what is right. :)
He could've postponed it few hours i guess. The power shut off and security measures were occuring every single night at a certain time for nearly a week Eli Cohen has been returned to Damascus. He could've realized this and shifted his code message till later until they're done with the routine signal interference tour.
@@stephenouma yes amazing courage but to no avail he sacrificed his wife children his whole family and not forgetting himself too. It's a tragedy really he should of stayed put with his family after many trips to Damascus and refused to go back. His ego patriotism to Israel and to an extent his religious beliefs got the better of him in the end. But having said all that I must admit sacha baron cohen was excellent in the six part series featured on netflix.
@Edna Turner I appreciate the change in tone and the civility. I don't hate Jews or even Judaism. I was always raised to believe that Judaism was a religion from God revealed to the Prophet Moses, who is a revered and respected Prophet in our religion. My problem is with Israel because 750,000 Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their homes, including my father and grandparents That's in addition to all the violations that have been happening and all documented by human rights organizations all around the world, and so I am afraid that no lasting peace will happen unless there is a one-state solution where both Palestinians and Israelis live together as equal citizens. Wouldn't that be a wonderful reality? Nobel Prizes are very Western-centric. Nobel Prizes are based in Sweden and Sweden is the country with most Nobel Prizes per capita. Also Nobel Prizes were not started in the last 100 years or so, and there is no specific criteria that one has to meet to win a Nobel Prize. In any case, who cares about the religion of the Nobel Prize winners? As long as they are helping advance humanity scientifically and humanely, we should all celebrate them, whether they are Muslims, Jews, Christians atheists or Buddhists.
Edna Turner fearsome is what you should feel when you invade people’s land and cowardly destroy unarmed civilians’ homes. I don’t know how could you live with that.
He was great hero.Great Lover or devotee of his country...Great respect and salute to him.I learn big lesson from This great hero...I learn ..Our first duty for our country..and if u want to do ..for ur country..do best..if u country need ur life then proud..die for country i learned this many years ago..whenni read Elie Cohen's life story.Great Respect sir..I am From Nepal..I think without Elie Cohen Any misssion were imposible...still i remember..Salute to his wife great Nadiya.
AHS Society Love even with his head off and his body pissed on (reprehensible thing to say btw) you’d still only have the IQ of his pinky toe. You sound about as smart as you look.
a depressive and aggressive regime, will never bring up a men with a motivation like that, not in a million years! I don't think the Arab language can find a translation to that sentence, sad but truth.
Events in the world have shown one thing; that if you pursue the jews, you fall.......and when they pursue you, you still fall. The conclusion is simple - that the God of Israel is the true God. Since 1967 Egypt has never recovered, since 1973 the Arab neighbours have not recovered.
What I don't understand is how Israeli intelligence seemingly weren't aware of the radio detection technology used by the Syrians which ultimately snared Cohen.
Green Machine You mean innocent Pali terrorists that murder Christians and Jews? The ones that fire rockets into Israel on a daily basis and blow up school buses? Are those the Muslims you’re talking about?
MACCARONIVELLI 3Pac It’s not quantity that’s important, it’s quality. Plenty of prisoners and other degenerates of society sign up for the cult of Islam everyday
flyer7799 Have you taken your meds lately? And by the way, the original Ponzi scheme was developed by an Italian named Charles Ponzi. I don’t think he was Jewish. Anyway the Ponzi scheme has nothing to do with the incredible life of Eli Cohen. It is only a reason for you to spread your filth and hate. I suggest you get yourself some professional help
it's a shame he didn´t realized there was a counterintelligence operation trying to track down a spy conspiracy. If he had talked to the mossad HQ and saying thatm he should changed the protocol and began sending messages through another guy in order to keep his cover.
So sad. I feel so sad for his wife, and the rest of his family. I also feel very angry, because after he immigrated from an Arab country, to Israel, he just wanted any ordinary job, to make living, to support his wife and children, but it was so cruel, how on purpose, he was fired, from any simple job he tried to have as steady job... That was done to him, Just to have him give up, and surrender to them, who forced themselves, and their commandments on him.... The poor man was so innocent and loyal to Israel, so he paid with his life😥 Eli Cohen God have mercy on his soul🙏
