Salwa Abu Libdeh

 

Use words instead of swords; we shouldn’t carry our swords and cut off each other's heads. We can get what we want by using proper words and a good approach... this is how the world works. You can either beat me up and get what you want, or you can talk to me and get what you want, and more.

 
Salwa Abu Libdeh studied Arabic Literature and worked as a newspaper reporter before becoming a news anchor with the Palestinian Broadcasting Company. She worked on a joint Palestinian Israeli German project that made a documentary film about life on both sides of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict.
