I tend to interpret that whole ‘everyone’s wife is a Mossad agent’ thing in a more sort of metaphorical way–that people you’re intimate with might be, like, ‘double agents,’ y’know? It’s a weird kind of paranoia you get about people you love–that they might turn out to be completely different from who you think they are, that it’s all been some sort of diabolically patient plot against you. I think that’s a pretty normal fear you have in any serious relationship. And that’s why it’s such a popular part of the epic, because so many people can relate to that fear. But personally, I don’t really worry about it too much.
