He's also a 6th degree black belt in Karate. Good for him - and
   wrote a book. Mind you, I agree with the sentiment generally,
   that Palestinians and Israeli's need to work together for a
   peaceful solution and such, although the title of the video is

   definitely seems like a character. Strikes me as the result of
   coming from a fundamentalist (in this case, Zionist) background
   and rejecting it as a young adult and turning as far away from
   his father's footsteps as possible. Fundy Christians become New
   Atheist, as a teenager I'd see Roman Catholic girls become
   Wiccan... same type of thing. Turning away from the roots to
   embrace a directly oppositional opinion. This doesn't invalidate
   his opinions and such by any means, just an observation of a
   pattern.
