![]() ![]() ![]() One of the interviewees for example said that one people's terrorist is the other people's freedom fighter, which is not only very true, but it also shows that these people, through their history in Shin Bet have attained a different way of looking at the conflict. On the other hand some of them openly discussed the possibility of a Palestinian state, they spoke of Palestinians in a much more humane way than many Israeli's do and they were openly critical of Israel's security policy in the past decades, both from a human and from a professional, security perspective. Of course, they have been defending Israel and they are still Israeli citizens and they still stand behind decisions that they have made and that have cost Palestinian lives. I was surprised to see that these former Shin Bet heads had a much more nuanced view of the conflict than I expected. The interviews paint a picture of the security situation Israel is facing and the decisions it has made in its conflict with the Palestinians. In this documentary the film maker interviews six former heads of the Shin Bet, the Israeli intelligence service. ![]()
