The opening as it read in 2010
Diana Buttu is a Palestinian -Canadian lawyer and former spokesperson with the Palestine Liberation Organization . She is best known for her work as a legal adviser and negotiator on peace negotiations between Israeli and Palestinian organizations.1Bush referred her role in 2005 by stating that she is "a lovely lady who is a very well-educated person, went back to Palestine to try to serve what she hopes will be a country. Buttu was born in Canada to Arab Israeli parents. She received a law degree from Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario , and a Ph.D from McGill University on compensation to Palestinian refugees. She began her work as negotiator in 2000, shortly after the outbreak of the Second Palestinian Intifada , as a spokesperson for the Negotiations Support Unit of the Palestine Liberation Organization . The Economist in 2005 termed her part of the closest thing to a Palestinian makeover. Al-Ahram Weekly carried an op-ed piece in 2005 in which she was lauded for projecting an image that was opposite of the Palestinians stock villain's role image. Given her public role in promoting the Palestinian cause, she has appeared numerous times in the American news media from TV networks such as Fox News , CNN , and MSNBC to newspapers such as USA Today and other outlets.
