Arab converts to Judaism

A story of a Lebanese who spied for Israel in Hizbollah:

He mentions there the cruelty of the Palestinians (in the 80's in Lebanon) and the unimaginable cruelty of Hizbollah (towards him as well; e.g., his own turture(s) and the murder of his son in front of him). This contrasts with the concern his Israeli operator has shown for him. He later converted.

(For another 1st hand account story showing cruelty vs Jewish humanity, see the story of Brigitte Gabriel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfVWqiSIVSg and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfYAA-x6PeA )

There are also "plain" conversion stories. Here's a news repost from more than two years ago:

This Palestinian served 11 years in prison (not on terror-related issues) and while there started a conversion process. That newsreport shows him getting out of prison but with absolutely no place to go to. While praying for help a senior officer stops and sends him to a new way.

Fast forward two years: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKMlk51bAdM -- He's studying in a yeshiva, planing to marry and wishing to serve in the Israeli army.
