Thank you, David

November 4, 2025

I would like to thank David Spratt for his article on Ali Kazak.

My interaction with Ali was over 45 years. I learnt what advocacy meant and how justice in all things was the major point in writing on any subject involving people, wherever they may be. I was in truth, a Palestinian and all that meant.

My efforts were constant over all those years, gradually learning the history of Palestine, the injustices over decades, the devious nature of those who sought to bring that country down and the hypocrisy of others who sought to gain materially from the possible death and destruction of a proud nation.

In my judgment, the hateful program for the ownership and possession of Palestine will never occur, knowing and trusting that the majority in this world will awake to the motivations of those weak-minded or corrupt individuals who have allowed this to reach the stage that it has.

One is allowed a hero or two in one’s life. I am proud to say that Ali Kazak has filled that role in my life, without question. He was a truly honourable man, never to be forgotten.
