Dr. Izzeldin Abuelasih

What an extraordinary humanitarian, after everything He's been through He's still giving..

Q: What you went through each day to get to your job made me angry just to read about. Waiting at the check points, being harassed, and then waiting hours for no good reason. You talk about this as "patience training."

A: Once you are angry you lose control. Then you regret things. So please take a step back. The strongest person is not the one who is strongest physically or [can fight or dominate], it's the one who behaves himself and controls his anger. It's not about fighting. We need to build this strength in our children; not to be impulsive. If we want to raise them to have good values, you have to admit when you make a mistake. I want to encourage them to work for those values.
