It sounds like the plot of a novel. A Jewish tour guide who survived a Palestinian terror attack that left her Christian friend dead helped shelter an Arab teen who got death threats after voicing support for Israel’s summer operation in Gaza.

British-born Kay Wilson said that she helped hide Mohammad Zoabi throughout the summer war in Gaza, before he was able to flee to the United States in fear of his life.
Seventeen-year-old Zoabi, an Israeli Arab from Nazareth, was forced to leave the country after receiving death threats for posting a YouTube video harshly condemning the kidnapping of three Israeli teenagers by a Hamas-affiliated terror cell in June.
In the YouTube video, Zoabi, wrapped in an Israeli flag, called for the release of the three teens and urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop negotiating with Palestinian terrorists.
Zoabi, who is a distant relative of controversial Balad MK Hanin Zoabi, describes himself as an Israeli Zionist Arab Muslim.
He continued to make YouTube videos declaring his support for the Jewish state and encouraging Arab citizens to join the Israeli army, leading his lawmaker relative to publicly distance herself from him. He also faced threats from his own relatives.

This may be one of those exceptions to the rule about most Muslims supporting violent jihad.
Yeah. This guy definitely deserves refugee status.
In fear FOR his life?
Whats become of grammar, or should I ask, "What's become of editors?"
Perhaps that slip is apropo. He is in fear of the Islamists who are a big part of his life, and therefore he fears for his life.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Most Muslims are afraid of other Muslims because there are plenty of jihadists who will gladly kill them to prove their loyalty to Islam.
That’s what gangs or personality cults do, not legitimate religions based on faith and free will. I don’t ‘do’ gangs.
