Chronicle In Favor Of Books I Shall Not Hate: A Gaza Doctor's Journey on the Road to Peace and Human Dignity

By turns inspiring and heart-breaking, hopeful and horrifying, I Shall Not Hate is Izzeldin Abuelaish's account of an extraordinary life. A Harvard-trained Palestinian doctor who was born and raised in the Jabalia refugee camp in the Gaza Strip and "who has devoted his life to medicine and reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians" (New York Times), Abuelaish has been crossing the lines in the sand that divide Israelis and Palestinians for most of his life - as a physician who treats patients on both sides of the line, as a humanitarian who sees the need for improved health and education for women as the way forward in the Middle East. And, most recently, as the father whose daughters were killed by Israeli soldiers on January 16, 2009, during Israel's incursion into the Gaza Strip. His response to this tragedy made news and won him humanitarian awards around the world. Instead of seeking revenge or sinking into hatred, Abuelaish called for the people in the region to start talking to each other. His deepest hope is that his daughters will be "the last sacrifice on the road to peace between Palestinians and Israelis."

Judgment Out Of Books I Shall Not Hate: A Gaza Doctor's Journey on the Road to Peace and Human Dignity

I reviewed this extremely inspiring book which has a message for world peace. Dr Abulaish has had such a challenging life full of personal losses. Anybody could have turned cynictaking on relentless advesities. But he keeps the hope alive and now works for supporting young women to grow and educate themselves...Strongly recommended !

First off, I must disclose I won this on First Reads. That being said...Second, I have had the opportunity to read several memoirs in this past month. Most have been excellent..a couple, not so! Abuelaish's, though, is the most poignant. This book is up-lifting and heart-wrenching at the same time. In looking at the Isreal-Palestine(Gaza Strip) issue, we are always informed and/or taught the history of the yet,at least for me, I have never seen it personalized. I think another part that totally

Although this was a very difficult story to read-painful, gut-wrenching and heartbreaking-I am so glad I read it. We need to know this story, which is tragically a story shared by many. The marvel is that is is also a story of forgiveness and hope.



'I Shall Not Hate' by Izzeldin Abuelaish is a emotional and inspiring recount of Abuelaish's life during the conflict between the Israelí, Arab and the Jewish. It tells his tail of how he grew up in a poor, cramped refugee camp in the city of Jabalia, his mother pushing him to work for his family while simultaneously encouraging him to continue his education. He tells us her strictness and sacrifice was what got him through his younger years and the constant belief and support that his teachers

Horrible tragedy aside, this man, according to his own account, never had self-doubts, or held anger toward occupiers, or have been misled in his beliefs even as a youth. I find it hard to swallow, especially since he is also an aspiring politician. He is either a saint, or a lier - and I don't believe in saints.

I am glad that I had a chance to read this book, but honestly, I did not like the author and his attitudes. I found him too selfish, a bit unreliable, and politically ignorant and even maybe too rational, and unfortunately, this rationality highly affected his judgments and opinions. I think he could not grasp Gazan's long-term feelings of being oppressed, thus could not interpret their reactions fairly. I am not only talking about his views about Gaza, but see the way he treated his wife, who
