Episode description

And now for something a bit different! Chris and Mike recap the Baghdad scene at the end of Separation of Power and compare it to one of the most daring hostage rescue operations in history - Operation Thunderbolt - conducted by the Israelis at Entebbe Airport in Uganda on July 4, 1976. We absolutely recommend checking out these three films on the subject: Raid on Entebbe (1977, free on YouTube), 7 Days in Entebbe (2018), and the National Geographic's Situation Critical: Entebbe Hostage Rescue documentary (2014, free on YouTube)
