Nonie Darwish is an Egyptian woman born in Gaza. Her father fought as part of Nasser's inner circle against Israel and was eventually killed by Israel. A practising Muslim, today she speaks out against the Jihadist call to destory Israel. She speaks out in the name of tolerance and has started a website called ArabsforIsrael.com.
Darwish lives in America but recently visited South Africa - and I was lucky enough to meet her.
Last week the Cape argus ran an article on her interesting life: Arab woman lends her voice to Israel.
