If you look at his name you will realize that he is Jewish.

 

Nice!

 

This is not unusual given that Sephardim in general are not as close-minded to Yiddishkeit as the Ashkenazi secular general public. Sephardim, even if they don't wear kipa, have an ingrained love and respect for Yiddishkeit and always stay close to their Jewish identity. Most of the Chozrim Biteshuva in Israel are of Sephardic heritage and even the most secular of them still keep basic mitzvos like kosher shechita and mikva. It is not for nothing that the Lubavitcher Rebbe ztz"l received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his work in Jewish education. How many heimish Boro Park High School and Mesivta kids have ever read Tanya?????

 

to anon. 10:54 AM:

The quota you are talking about are from Zohar and Gemoroh. You are not the first who has sinas chinom and is also an am ho'oretz.
Go back to cheder and leanr aleph beis and the halachos of kovod for torah.
