Good Flick--Operation Thunderbolt (Entebbe)

[Bat Guano]

After running my ancient downloaded VHS copy, which is now very audio-and-video challenged, I got to looking for a decent DVD of this. They can be found, but about $50 a copy.

You tube has this, free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFeDt0eVcTE

Subtitled, but quite decent. Reportedly the best film version of the incident and apparently still very popular in Israel.

The "Yoni" killed in the raid was Bibi Netanyehu's older brother. They were both raised in the US during their formative years; their father was here in diplomatic status. Reportedly Bibi commanded that same unit later on.

More chops than some national leaders I won't name.

Thanks fr this one and will give it a watching. I also remember watching, but barely--Raid on Entebbe w/ Charles Bronson.
