HumanRights: From Deir Yassin to Gaza

Just in the past three days, 18 Palestinians were murdered in Gaza by the same occupation army; including a man and his grand-daughter. I penned a poem along the way.

(BETHLEHEM) - I am back in Palestine after a long 40 day book tour in which I visited 3
countries, 16 US states, gave talks 67 times and interviewed on TV and Radio extensively.

Over 3000 wonderful contacts were made and the publisher tells me that 1300 books were sold along the way (http://www.qumsiyeh.org/popularresistanceinpalestine/).

I thank all who helped make this possible and all who attended my talks.

My apologies for my poor name-face association with older age.  

Yet, the sweet home coming occurred on 9 April, 2011 the anniversary of the massacre at Deir Yassin and, just in the past three days, 18 Palestinians were murdered in Gaza by the same occupation army; including a man and his grand-daughter.

I penned a poem along the way:
