It was during the genocidal war on Gaza
that my colleague, sports journalist, Nelly Al-Masri, interviewed some of the
best-known professional Palestinian athletes. This was a heroic action by
her, especially when the war was still ongoing at the time she took this
action. Furthermore, a number of people, including athletes, were suffering
under the starvation, destruction of infrastructure, and the
suffering that they were going through. In response to her decision, I
encouraged her to take this action, and I offered to translate the interviews
into English to expose the brutality of the Israeli forces to the world, and to
let the world know about the suffering Palestinian athletes are experiencing.
