Yaron London is a left-wing Israeli TV commentator, but he makes a Druze from the Golan Heights (and the UNHRC, sorry for the typo) who is claiming that Israel is violating his human rights look like an idiot.

There is a lot to learn about the Golan Druze in this show; for example that Druze residents of the Golan still manage to go to University of Damascus for free - and then get jobs as doctors in Israel.
