Not from the Lebanon that was the jewel of the ME destroyed by Palestinian and other Arab terrorists? Saying he’s Christian Druze? Interesting. Changes nothing in regards to his personal responsibility and his idiot parents.

Druze arent Christian. They are their own partly-Islamic offshoot - they believe in reincarnation for instance, which is way out of character for Muslims. There are quite a few of these splinter religions, usually not recognized as muslims by most muslims. The Ismailis and Ahmadis for instance. Or one can even count the Baháʼí in this. Of course there are vast differences between all these splinters.

The Druze get along very well with Christians and Jews.

As for Christians, in Lebanon most are Maronites, who are eastern rite Catholics. Way long ago I worked with several Greek Orthodox Lebanese. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_Lebanon

Likely not Druze. Maronite (Eastern Catholic). Khuri/Khoury is a well known Christian name there.
