In Syria: Imprecise

I am Syrian. I liked the movie muchhhh. I have a criticism regarding the scene in Syria. The Syrian intellegent system would not allow anyother one, like the Jourdanian Intellegence system, to go inside as it is very strong and closing the country. The movie shows Hani coming inside Syria. Well, maybe he was assisted by the Syrian I. S. but the movie doesn't show this. For a guy who knows Syria, he can't approve that scene.

Anyway the movie was amazing, and active fully.

In the book, after rescuing Ferris, Hani does mention that he was coordinating with his Syrian counterparts and that in fact even the President of Syria had promised to cooperate in the operation. You're right though that they should have mentioned it in the movie.

That man is playing Galaga! Thought we wouldn't notice. But we did.
