the rebels in Syria have uncovered this 52 year old video clip of the execution of "Our Man in Damascus" Eli Cohen, and have publicized it.
I don't usually watch or publicize "snuff" videos, but Eli Cohen has always fascinated me. This video clip makes me both sad and in awe. Sad for what we are seeing, how Eli Cohen, a great hero who saved thousands, tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, of Jews from being killed. Yet we are seeing the face of a Jewish hero. Not just in an old book or picture, but an actual video of him. We are looking at greatness, at a martyr.
