Micah Smith discusses his film 'Desert Princess', which portrays the human side of the Yesha outposts issue. David Willner and Barnea Selavan of Foundation Stone integrate the Torah, archaeology and history in their land-based Israel education programs.

Is the Sullivan mentioned related to Jimmy?

Selavan?  Isn't that a Hebrew name? 
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

They spelled it wrong. She said it like Sullivan.

Maybe Barnea is his son's Hebrew name from after he converted. His English name is David.



Well, almost any native English speaker would say Selevan like "Sullivan", but I know that there are other Jews with that name with the same spelling.  I'm not sure whether it's Hebrew or Yiddish, but it's definitely a Jewish last name.
