I Shall Not Hate delivers a message of hope that grew out of terrible tragedy. Izzeldin Abuelaish's tragedy raced around the world after being covered live on Israeli television. He's since been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize and is in the process of opening a foundation in honor of his three daughters and niece who were killed. Documentary film rights have been sold to David Paperny, the Academy award-winning Canadian producer/director.

'This story is a necessary lesson against hatred and revenge.' Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize laureate 'In this book, Doctor Abuelaish has expressed a remarkable commitment to forgiveness and reconciliation that describes the foundation for a permanent peace in the Holy Land.' President Jimmy Carter 'A journey of exceptional humanity, written with compassion, commitment and humility, set against unimaginable odds, it consumes you at every step.' Michael Mansfield QC
