It would have been significantly more effective for him to defect and go help Palestinians resist the IOF. Especially since he already had military knowledge.

I seriously doubt this is an actual option he could have taken.

yeah defecting seems logistically challenging, plus i assume a language barrier, and i probably wouldn't trust yankees if i were anyone else.

or to sabotage and destroy bombs and jets

Depends on his job. Outright sabotage is pretty difficult to pull off, but if he was willing to die he could have probably walked into a building with some generals inside it and redacted.
