The opening as it read in 2025
Ali Suliman ( Arabic : علي سليمان , Hebrew : עלי סלימאן ; born 1977) is an Israeli actor of Palestinian origin. He is known for his work on the series Jack Ryan and the film Paradise Now . I usually get in trouble when I travel to an Arab country because I have an Israeli passport. So for them I'm not a Palestinian but an Israeli. I can't travel to certain Arab countries because they haven't recognized Israel despite being a Palestinian which is the most complicated thing.
