This site tells about his life and work.

People always ask me ‘Are you left wing or right wing?' and I reply, ‘It takes two wings to fly'. We've got to find underlying unity between people on all different sides. I go to Shabbat in the settlements on the West Bank, and that would maybe upset some of my left wing peace activist friends, and then I spend the next day with Palestinian peace activists in Bethlehem, and that might upset some friends in my Jewish community in Jerusalem. But I see the longing for wholeness, the longing to live in a deep connection with the Holy Land, that unites all of us.
