The New Zealand graduate says for his part he will take the job. “I’d love to work with Mark [Johnson] again.
“There’s a lot of work to go to for that position. My first choice is to go back home and study full-time or get another job as a film maker in Auckland. I’d love to try something a little different.”

Last weekend, members of the Israeli Knesset, the Israeli parliament, voted to make changes to legislation requiring people claiming benefits to claim it as a qualifying disability. The government’s motivation, according to the Israeli government, is that it is “the law of the land and, therefore, it is the law of the world”.
The bill is designed to create a system of “medical insurance”, which would allow individuals to have health insurance, even if they refuse to undergo surgery for reasons of religion or personal dignity. As a result, the only option for people who are terminally ill, who require cancer treatment, or who suffer from serious neurological complications has been medical intervention which they can then claim as a personal disability.
Some have asked why a country that professes so much concern over the suffering of disabled people should now demand treatment that is so medically unnecessary. As my colleague Dan Zak has pointed out, this system would effectively allow people suffering from serious disabilities to have the state provide them with life-extending medical treatment that their medical conditions would justify. In other words, individuals suffering from conditions that would be life-ending for most would now be entitled to obtain life-extending medical treatment with little to no input from their physicians.
This proposal is part of a broader effort within Israel to shift from its focus on health care provision and increase its focus on social justice. As my colleague Daniel Levy has argued, Israel “is becoming the first state in the world to recognize that its welfare goal to provide social services not only entails a broad economic component but also includes a wide variety of services—including, for example, the provision of medical care”— and “to move away from a model in which only the basic necessities of life are covered by social services and toward a system in which the social infrastructure and legal systems of the state serve the basic need for social support for all.”
The changes in Israel would do nothing to alter this basic need for social support. Nor would it significantly alleviate this need, since the proposed bill will only apply to people suffering
