Synopsis
At Age Seventeen, Tass Saada was carrying a high-powered Simonov rifle. He had run away from home to become a PLO sniper and chauffeur for Arafat. His experience growing up as a refugee in Saudi Arabia had taught him to hate. Like many Palestinians, his hatred-and his rifle-was aimed squarely at Israel. Tass Saada's story could have ended tragically, another casualty of the centuries of hatred brewing in the Middle East. But Tass was destined for better things. His story will give you an intimate look at the world of Arafat; the life, struggles, and heart of a Palestinian refugee; a Muslim who converted to Christianity and faced retribution at the hands of his relatives; and, the transformation of hatred into love and hope. This is more than the story of a Palestinian refugee making something good of his life in America. It's a story of the ultimate triumph of love over hatred, reconciliation over persistent divisions. It's a story that can inspire us all to overcome the divisions and conflicts in our own lives. Book jacket., Tess Saada was a PLO sniper and Arafat's chauffeur, a Muslim immersed in anti-Israeli activity. As a young man he came to America, where he started a family, changed his faith, and began reconciliation with Jews. Later on he returned to Qatar to face his family and former boss, Arafat, with stories from his new life in Christ. The encounters are astounding. You'll embrace Saada's engaging story. You'll be enthralled by his conversion and the biblical teaching regarding Arabs and Ishmael. You'll be encouraged by his changed life and the story of hope in reconciliation through Jesus. Don't miss this enlightening true story by Tass Saada, written with Dean Merrill., Tass Saada was a PLO sniper and Arafat's chauffeur, a Muslim immersed in anti-Israeli activity.

  • Conversion

    This book is so interesting. An easy read. It reveals how God has moved in this extraordinary man's life. The beginning describes his angry and violent youth with his movement toward adulthood. He is extremely honest about his feelings towards the events in his life. His unexpected conversion moment is what I found most amazing. It is unusually compelling and real. A must read.

  • Fascinating easy read

    This book was an easy read about a terrorist and sniper who killed people while he was with the PLO. He had no remorse but several years later converted to Christianity and it changed his life. If a story like that is of interest then this is a book for you.

  • Once An Arafat Man

    This book is an amazing story of a life transformed from utter darkness and destruction to the transforming power of Christ. Much like a modern day Saul who became the Apostle Paul after his Damascus Road conversion.
