Shyne changed his name and converted to Judaism and was granted Israeli citizenship.
I'll be convinced of Shyne's acceptance when he marries an Orthodox woman, has Orthodox children, and remains in the Orthodox community.
Is he the only notable black convert in the Orthodox community?
If there is a legitimate process, there has to be more; or more that have attempted.
If there are not, then the process is corrupt.
If there are more, then they should be pairing and breeding with Orthodox women given the insular nature of the Orthodox sects and their emphasis on family.
Which is it? Is the conversion opportunity, that validates Judaism as a religion/ethnicty and not a race, a fraudulent concept or are Orthodox women pairing with black Orthodox converts?
I wonder what the update is. There is no pertinent update on the Wikipedia page on his life after the 2010 period.

Otherwise I cannot see why all the hate? The guy loves Israel and so what? IMO he did not preach anything.
Leaving aside your immediate descendance into SJW style framing of everything that disagrees with you being "hate", and also leaving aside your lack of comprehension of the explanations that exist earlier in the thread, the issue was his overall profile that marked him as a troll whose purpose was to agitate over a particular political issue.
No one is arguing over issues surrounding Israel itself nor even the issue presented in his dumb avatar, except in post mortem side conversation and even then it's been pretty light and further driven by the OP's predictable social hypocrisy. They were pointing out his nature as a troll, and making fun of the place from which his trollishness comes.
Notice how no one here has geopolitical statements of allegiance as a username. He did.
Notice how his avatar elaborates on the political statement in the username, and goes further in advocating for a controversial geopolitical stance by linking the American flag to the Israeli flag.
That stance has never been, is not, and never will be normative. It's a modern redefinition of America's sovereignty led by a conglomeration of special interests. A lot of people resent it. It's divisive because it drags the rest of the nation into the political bed of those special interests that have allegiances to a foreign nation. Avoiding such foreign entanglements was a founding precept of the nation.
It's an avatar designed to incite repeated discussion and pushback on one divisive political topic, which is the mark of a troll. If he merely used an Israeli flag, the trollish nature of the avatar would have been in less suspicion (but still suspicious given the username in combination with the avatar on a PUA forum).
Would the avatar be politically divisive on a Christian Zionist or Israeli forum? No. One of the OPs points seemed to be that it was marked as divisive because we make it so. The actual case is that everything political is controversial in certain circles. This forum is a PUA forum that straddles all races and religions, with the overall political tone being anti-globalist. But also anti-troll. Anyone who comes here to agitate on one non-man and non-pua related issue divisive to the U.S.A.s traditional identity is going to get called out.
The cherry was that his first post on the forum was starting a thread on a topic related to his twice stated geopolitical position.
Every new member here would do well to have a posting history before starting a thread, and even more so should the thread be tied into any political statements by the OP whatsoever.
He's a troll and there are further troll related issues, relevant to him, that I won't go into.
If you continue to argue for the troll, you'll undoubtedly quickly be marked by the forum as a troll as well.
