S1 E8: It was called Operation Brothers, a 1980s covert Mossad mission to rescue 12,000 Ethiopians, Jewish descendants of the lost tribe of Israel, from Sudan. The mission would take five years to pull off, involving an audacious plot, a maverick field agent, and a small group of deep cover operatives who ran a fake scuba diving resort so convincingly, they actually turned a profit. Host Damian Lewis guides us through the improbable rescue mission.
