Said Elatab writes: My painting “The Sad Woman from Palestine ” in abstract expressionism in all color with Palestinian flag.

Said Elatab paints with such force and power. His paintings are rich and enigmatic, telling a story of oppression and injustice. To add visual uniqueness, he uses color in such a dramatic way to drive home his point of view. Consequently his art keeps the onlooker in awe, captivated and in perilous wonder. He is a unique painter of realistic imagination.

A Freedom Fighter, NOT a Terrorist

The world called Nelson Mandela a terrorist … until he liberated his people

Today we honour Nelson Mandela International Day.

For years Mandela was labelled a terrorist by powerful governments because he refused to accept apartheid and fought back. Today he is remembered as one of the greatest champions of freedom, justice and human dignity.

It is a reminder that those who challenge apartheid, occupation and oppression are often attacked, vilified and branded with names designed to silence them. Labels do not determine the truth. Justice does.

As Mandela famously said “We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians”

To everyone standing against apartheid, occupation and injustice keep pushing. Do not be shaken by the names they throw at you ..

The greatest way to honour Mandela is not simply to remember his words but to have the courage to speak against and fight injustice wherever it exists and to stand for justice consistently without double standards.

Happy Nelson Mandela International Day. May we all have the courage to stand for justice …

Kamel al Budairi: A Revolutionary, Pioneer of Palestinian Journalism

Kamel al-Budairi who was born in Jerusalem in 1886, was the owner of the Palestinian newspaper “Al-Sabah,”. He used to publish this newspaper in Jerusalem after the British occupation of Palestine during World War I. The first edition of the newspaper was in 1921.

His importance stems both for his pioneering role in Palestinian journalism and for being the first Palestinian to organize armed resistance against the British occupation of Palestine.

He rejected the British colonial project to establish a Jewish national home in Palestine and fought for its independence.

Unfortunately, al-Budairi was assassinated in 1923 while rallying support, recruiting fighters, and gathering weapons in the Arabian Peninsula for this noble cause.
