In 2024 he was interviewed by the Israel lobby front group Christenen voor Israel ('Christians for Israel')[17] after having vistied Gaza in an Israeli military convoy, explaining that why the Israeli military is demolishing every building is because "every school, mosque, house, building, every medical center, and not only that but also in all kinds of places has stored explosives, which means that again it is an impossible task for the Israeli military" to let them stand[18].
