Donald Pleasence, as an Israeli security operative, wants Bruce to inform on his friend. Bruce's fellow university students, who appear to be mixing archaeology with target practice in the desert, want him to use Raschid to ar range a palaver with the Arabs. Nicol Williamson, as one of Bruce's teachers, warns him of the dangers of involvement. Whether Williamson encourages his students' books-and-bullets curriculum or merely abides it is never clear...
