This series tells the story of the POWs who returned from captivity in Egypt and Syria, cut off from their families, directly to an interrogation facility in Israel, where they underwent harsh interrogations in which they were accused of giving away information to the enemy and even suspected of having defected.
Over 200 fighters were captured by the Egyptians and severely tortured. Another 70 fighters were captured by the Syrians in battles over the Hermon outpost and the Golan Heights outposts. They returned home at the end of the war, but when they returned to their families, they were called to an interrogation facility in Zichron Yaacov.
Today, they are trying to overcome double traumas: the horrors of war, captivity and torture on the one hand, and the interrogations that have taken place here in Israel on the other, and are trying to overcome what they define as "the state's betrayal of them."

The Beltway Boys was an internationally syndicated American weekly television show. The title referred to the Capital Beltway — the circumferential freeway surrounding Washington, D.C. — and to the two journalists who hosted the show: Mort Kondracke and Fred Barnes. Airing initially in the United States on Saturday evenings at 6:00 pm ET on the Fox News Channel, the program was a weekly digest and discussion of political issues. The show was taped in Fox News' Washington studios on Fridays.
Typically, the program began with three primary topics that Kondracke and Barnes discussed at length. It then looked at newsworthy events in the political lives of national leaders in its "Ups and Downs" segment, characterizing the events as positive for the individual or negative.
Fox News Channel cancelled the show in April 2009.
