In Their Words....

Abdel Aziz Rantisi:

  • "By God, we will not leave one Jew in Palestine. We will fight them with all the strength we have. This is our land, not the Jews."

  • "It is difficult to liberate all our land at this stage, so we are willing to accept a phased liberation. We accept a state in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip.”

  • "The word ceasefire is not in our dictionary."

  • "There is no difference between Akko, Haifa, Gaza, Jaffa or Nablus. The Palestinian Intifada will continue until the last Zionist is banished."

To my husband, to my children. To my parents and sister and brother, and their families. To my brothers-in-laws and sisters-in-law.


To the victims of terrorism over the last few years. 


To the soldiers of Israel.


To mothers. 


To the Jews who are no more, and to the Jews yet to be.


To those around the world who understand that the path to peace is not reached through violence, to my Arab friends and neighbors.

To my international friends and email pals...

in short, this site is dedicated to those who have touched my life, and in so doing, have brought forth my words.
