Aaed Abu Amro
First, they said Rambo, then they brought you Arnold, then Batman and Ironman, and Wonder Woman for the girls. It’s as if there are no heroes from our people and our history.
It's as if there is no hero in this world who speaks the way you do, eats olive oil and zaatar, loves kunafa, and is close with his cousins.A young man like you, who goes to Friday prayers, plays football, and kisses his mother’s hand before going out with his friends.
Palestine has produced many heroes, our legends are real and greater than their legends, and Aaid Abu Amro's slingshot is greater than David's sling.
