He appears to be notable only for the fact that he was killed in the Gaza flotilla raid. I can find no sources supporting the claim he was a taekwondo champion. He is not listed among the nearly 30,000 athletes at taekwondodata.com and the European Taekwondo Union does not show him ever winning a medal at their championship. Therefore, he appears to be notable simply for the tragic event of his death, which is not enough for WP notability on its own. Having started this, I've decided what I really want to do is Redirect to Gaza flotilla raid, but this allows everyone a chance to give input. Papaursa (talk) 23:59, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete He's not notable for anything except his death so I don't see why he should have his own article.204.126.132.231 (talk) 21:12, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Gaza flotilla raid, certainly part of a tragic incident, but I am unable to find evidence of notability unrelated to that incident; WP:NOTMEMORIAL. AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 10:19, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
