One of the biggest lies Speilberg told is that Avner (the leader of the Israeli Mossad unit) moved to Brooklyn out of protest and torment over what he had been led to do.

What a bunch of hogwash. The real Avner lives in Israel today.

According to George Jonas, Avner moved to New York but returned to Israel to serve in the Yom Kippur War.

Spielberg never stated specifically in the movie that Avner was still in NY.
