Israel's Channel 20 has the story of Daniel Dabash, who grew up in the Arab village of Sur Baher as Nidal Dabash. His mother was Jewish but died in 2002; he grew up knowing she was Jewish but not that he would be considered Jewish as well.
His stepmother hated him and he discovered that he was halachically Jewish, so he asked for more information and help on Facebook and got it.
They are misreporting the story as if Daniel converted just to marry the girl, and therefore this is being painted as another Israeli plot to "normalize" with its Arab neighbors.
The Dabash family is disowning him, saying that they have nothing to do with this person who had a Jewish mother.
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
