Miko Peled is one of the most popular and richest Peace Activist who was born on December 10, 1961 in JerUnited Stateslem, JerUnited Stateslem, Israel. As of June 1, 2023, Miko has a net worth approximately $5 Million. Since 28 May 1989, Peled, a sixth-degree black belt, owned, operated, and taught at Martial Arts America, a school in Coronado, California, which “is dedicated to teaching leadership skills and non-violent conflict resolution through martial arts.” In October 2012, he sold the business to his top student of over twenty years, David Michael Adams, in order to focus on promoting his book The General’s Son.

Born in Jerusalem in 1961, Peled grew up in Motza Illit to a prominent Zionist family; his grandfather, Avraham Katsnelson, signed Israel’s Declaration of Independence. His father, Mattityahu Peled, fought in the 1947–1949 Palestine war, and served as a general in the Six-Day War of 1967; later, after the Israeli cabinet ignored his investigation of a 1967 alleged Israeli war crime, he became an advocate for an Israeli dialogue with the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). He condemned the Israeli military for seizing the West Bank, Gaza, Sinai and the Golan Heights, calling the war a “cynical campaign of territorial expansion”. Palestinian activist Susan Abulhawa has described Peled’s father, who died in 1995, as “a man that many of us Palestinians could not figure out whether to love or hate” and whom “many notable Palestinians” nicknamed “Abu Salam” (Father of Peace). His brother is the political scientist Yoav Peled.

“Israel has been on a mission to destroy the Palestinian people for over six decades,” Peled has said. “Why would anyone not give solidarity to the Palestinian people?” He has said that Israel’s actions in the Six-Day War of 1967 were not a response to a real threat but acts of bald aggression. And also that “every single Israeli city is a settlement” and that “expressing solidarity with Palestinians is the most important thing people can do.”

One evening in 1983, however, he skipped a Peace Now demonstration in Jerusalem to attend karate class, and on that evening a grenade attack by a right-wing extremist killed one of the demonstrators. “Peled took this as a sign,” according to one interview, and consequently “followed the path of karate – a practice of non-violence…that teaches one to ‘overcome insurmountable obstacles.'” This path “that took him to Japan and eventually to San Diego, where he settled with his wife and family”. He then distanced himself from activism until 1997, becoming a sixth-degree black belt in karate and moving first to Japan, then to San Diego, California, United States.
