It was tricky [to write about Israelis], because everyone has an opinion about the Arab - Israeli conflict, and when I first started writing these stories, I was working for an Arab - Israeli human rights group. It was during the Second Intifada.

It's really a situation Donald Trump's children are involved now in choosing the next government that no other president had in years and years.
