Initially starts with the simple war broken between Syria and Israel. It realises that this series wold get Catchy and will be suspenseful from the first episode itself. Some dialogues yet to be remember and proved that a spy has to be leave many things like :

It is far better than RAW. It is originally casted and it is proof by the end episode of the Series. 


Meanwhile, the true story of Israel’s most famous spy makes a stupendous story, portrayed by Cohen’s best dramatic work yet.
