Jewish Settler Willing To Take Up Palestinian Citizenship For The Sake Of Peace

As the Israeli authorities are preparing for the Gaza withdrawal next month,

Jewish settler Avi Farhan, determined not to give up his home overlooking the sea when Israel quits the occupied Gaza Strip, is looking into becoming a Palestinian.

He explains his decision by saying:

"I have met with Palestinians. I am willing to be a test case for peace and take up Palestinian citizenship,"... "It will hurt me to give up my Israeli citizenship, but I want to remain here."
