It's almost 2013, still wanna come and perform in Gaza? And what's your comment after knowing that Reem Talhami came from Jerusalem to Gaza to sing but they didn't give her a license to perform?
I would love to perform in Gaza. And in my view it is totally ridiculous that they didn't let her. But if I am invited I will come, and if I don't get the license, I will just enjoy being with our Palestinian people of Gaza.

Do you perform in concerts or festivals ?
If I am invited to do so, yes, sometimes. About twice a year. I don't have more time than that.
I'm very disappointed on people celebrating the 25th anniversary of Hamas and not the 25th anniversary of the beginning of the first Intifada : to your opinion, why and how did the fake moqawama took over the real one in the heart and mind of people ??
There is no such thing as a 'fake moqawama' - this in my view is a form of sectarian thinking. There is a diverse moqawama. The variety of factions reflects our diversity as a people. PFLP also celebrated its 45th anniversary yesterday, or did you miss that? We should embrace diversity, and respect all the factions who make up the Palestinian resistance. I also feel the factions should have celebrated the beginning of the Intifada more prominently, but not only Hamas is to be blamed for that.

Where were you during the First intifada ?
I only spent two months in Palestine during it. Rest of the time, I was in the Netherlands.

A tooth-brushing Palestinian.
Do you believe in 'love at first sight'?
Seeing is believing. I've seen it.
What is something you do every single day?
Pray.
Which of ur songs took very long to make?
Usually they don't take long. However, on Right of Return, I involved saxophone player Susanne Alt in the Netherlands, and also had it professionally mastered in Amsterdam. This slowed down things.
Do you observe Palestinian tradition when guests come to visit? (1 tray of aseer, 1 tray of balawa, 1 tray of 2ahwey) :D
Hehe well yes, more or less - but there is no rule against more trays, right? ;)
Do you have a double sink in your kitchen?
Relevance, ur honor? Yes I do :p
Which song of ur own do u like the most?
My songs are like my children. I can't prefer any over another. Except sometimes I am not entirely happy with the recording quality of some of the old ones.
You're a surgeon?
Yes.
How do you see your musician future from now?
I think it's nearing its end. But the songs will stay, and I made plenty !
What do you think about some "extremists" wanting to destroy relics (like pyraminds and sphinx) from Ancient Egypt?
They are totally crazy.
What is your favourite meat to eat?
Lamb :D
What do you dream about?
I dream of a FREE PALESTINE.
Your 200th question. Coke or bebsi? :D
Wait a minute - aren't we boycotting that stuff ? :p
If you had to give up Facebook or twitter for a week, which would you pick?
