Quotations

“[W]hen I accepted the nomination, I knew that death was the worst case scenario. I was prepared for that. . . Our mission opened the eyes of many around the world on what is happening in Gaza and what issues they are facing. Through all this awareness worldwide, this mission has also brought hope and encouragement to the people in Gaza that one day they may achieve their freedom.” (The Star Online, Oct. 14, 2016; photo mycare.org)
