Profile Information
- My personal story:
- My parents say I was born with a crayon in my hand. Since day one I began my path as a self learned artist. I enjoy creating art with meaning. Many of my works are about peace and diversity. I grew up during the 60's & 70's in a very fast moving pace world. Where I viewed descrimination and how crewl people can be to one another without actually knowing why. This has lead me to my new path of creating peace & diversity useable products.
- Why I want peace:
- I'm tired of seeing people fight for no real reason. Humans are suppose to be a superior being but tend to act like animals when they don't have what they want. I don't understand why people just can't talk problems or issues out instead of killing innocent lives.
- Interests and activities:
- art, reading, music, internet, hiking, dreaming
- Something you didn't know about me:
- I have a child
- How I found mepeace.org:

- What I want to achieve here:

- a Palestinian Arab from Hizmeh, a village between Jerusalem and Ramallah. When I was 15 years old I fought against the Israeli Occupation in search of freedom. At that time I thought every Jewish person, whether soldier or citizen, man or woman, young or old, should be killed. I rejected the right for any Jew to live and every Jew was a target. I was just a kid, believe me, and I didn’t understand anything about politics or the Arab-Israeli conflict. I was arrested and sat in jail for 12 years. This was during the first intifada from 1987. At that time nobody talked about peace but only of violence. I matured during my time in jail. I started studying and reading books on politics, literature, poetry, and about the Madrid Conference.
It gave me hope to live in peace and dignity. I learned that violence only breeds violence and that peace is the only solution for the two nations, the only way for both to have a respectful and beautiful future. We live on the same land. We are neighbors. We drink the same water and both pray to a monotheistic God. We must live in peace on the basis of religion for God and land for everyone.
