Interview with Dr. Nabil Shaath ..

This post was published on 10-1-2018 on my Facebook page.


I followed, for a full hour, Al Mayadeen channel’s interview with Dr. Nabil Shaath which ended a little while ago...and I became fully convinced that the Palestinian people are rich in the many competencies of their sons, among them certainly Dr. Shaath...He was brilliant in his answers to the interviewer’s precise questions from various angles...He did not falter in responding to many questions about the upcoming Palestinian policy, and the ways to confront the conspiracies to liquidate the Palestinian cause...and he answered politely, and without invective, about the role of the Arab states...rather he affirmed that the leadership and the Palestinian people believe in their Arab homeland...and their belonging to this nation...but that the Palestinian people must shoulder the responsibility, and be able in light of the wavering of some Arab states...He also pointed out that the Palestinians choose in their resistance the appropriate tool of struggle according to the circumstances and capabilities and the conditions of the surrounding states.... Dr. Shaath also pointed to national unity and to the necessity of ending the disputes and pointed out that all the Palestinian factions in general will attend the upcoming meetings of the Central Council...and to the importance of this meeting...and he also pointed to the end of America’s role as the leading state of the world, no longer alone as a result of the policies it pursues and its deadly mistakes in Afghanistan and Iraq and Syria and elsewhere....The truth is I praise the rhetoric of this esteemed Palestinian diplomat.....and I send him my salute....It is worth noting that Dr. Nabil Shaath holds a PhD from the United States in Business Administration...born in Safed 1938...and he is a Palestinian political, banking, and administrative figure...the first to conduct training in the Arab world when he established a training company (Team..Team)...in Cairo...he studied at the American University of Beirut and in Cairo...his late father was the manager of the Arab Bank in Jaffa..I received from his hands (Dr. Nabil Shaath) a course in advanced leadership skills in Sana'a in the late 1980s when I was director of the Arab Bank, Al Hudaydah branch


We need such a diplomat who participated in the recent diplomatic struggle at the Security Council and the General Assembly concerning the US President’s decision regarding Jerusalem
Palestine remains...as long as generations inherit the right. The firm. Palestinian Arab Islamic right to all of Palestine..and its capital Jerusalem..and not any Jerusalem…!
