Most people outside of Israel don't know much about MK member Shaul Mofaz, and it's not surprising. He's one of the few 'non-European' Jews in Israel to have become a Knesset member, and who dared to challenge former presidential candidate Tzipi Livni, and lost.

However, here is a perfect example of how 'Arab Jews' can play a pivotal role in the peace making process with the Palestinians.
