After receiving his doctorate from the University of Manchester, he joined the Hebrew University of Jerusalem as a postdoctoral fellow where he used political cartoons to anticipate the outbreak of the Second Intifada. He later joined the University of Calgary as visiting professor of Israel Studies where he was awarded the Teaching Excellence Award for courses on the History of Zionism and Narratives of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. His current research uses political cartoons to investigate Israel's reaction to terrorism, the role of emotions in International Relations and the cartoon’s ability to predict election results. He is the author of Political Cartoons and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and has contributed to Yedioth Ahronot, Zocalo Public Square, Jewish Museum of Vienna and the Israeli Cartoon Museum.
