Dancing With Jackals, Part One: The Idealist | CIA

In June 1970, a young man is arrested at the Israeli port of Haifa. On his person, police officers discover pro-Palestine propaganda, a Super-8 video camera, and 2 kilograms of high explosive. His name is Bruno Breguet - and his story only gets stranger from here.
In this 2-part True Spies story, intelligence historian Adrian Hänni joins Daisy Ridley to uncover the life of a little-known, but fascinating figure. In Part 1, you'll follow Bruno's journey from sleepy southern Switzerland to the frontlines of pro-Palestinian terror in the 1970s - and the inner circle of one of the world's most notorious terrorists, Carlos the Jackal.
