No, I have fun pointing out the glaring contradictions in his anecdotes.
Looking forward to when he transforms from an atheist anti-nuke Lebanese to a Ugandan hare Krishna practising neo-Nazi.
Now that you mentioned the NAZIs.
I was surprised the other day when come across some of their what I consider better principles, these were due to it being a nationalist and socialist party. The rest of their principles and practises were totally off the rails of course. But they were in an extreme situation and extremists appealed to them. Just like in Palestine.

The Program of the Nazi Party includes demands such as:
Socialization of monopoly companies
Municipalization of large department stores
Expropriation of land for charitable purposes
Prevention of real estate speculation
Expansion of the entire education system
A comprehensive system of free public schools and generous study stipends and grants
A clean environment along with promoting the health and the fitness of the people.

In particular, the Nazi party program demanded
the abolition of easy income without work (item 11)
confiscation of war profits (item 12)
the nationalization of all trust enterprises (item 13)
profit sharing in large companies (item 14)
generous expansion of retirement provision (item 15)
the creation of a healthy middle class (item 16)
a land reform adapted to national needs, creating a law for the free expropriation of land for charitable purposes. Abolition of land consumption and prevention of any land speculation (item 17).

Considering the obscene wealth of some individuals and the inequality of society I am for a lot a of these principles. They would help prevent the unhealthy obsession of excessive wealth and damage to the environment.
