disillusioned with his newly adopted country

"According to one report – in the Times of Israel – Sotloff, who had moved to Israel in 2008, later became somewhat disillusioned with his newly adopted country.

"Like most of us, he came here and he became very critical of the government," said Hillary Lynne Glaser, a former classmate who studied international relations at the Interdisciplinary Centre in Herzilya with Sotloff.

"I'm not so sure it was about the Israeli-Arab conflict, I think it was more how they treat their own people. But he still came back to visit. He didn't hate it enough to not come visit," she told the paper. "He still considered it his home.""
