Oh I just thought of another plot thread, the villain.

Make the villain an old Nazi general who bought into the whole idea that Germany only lost the war because of the Jews so he wants to destroy the dead sea scrolls as an act of pretty revenge against the Jewish people.

Now there is a villain I would love to see taken down and he could be played as really evil and fun to watch by a good character actor.

Sorry I keep going on about this but I just keep getting new story ideas and when I get those I have to share them with someone, sorry.
