A humanitarian and peace activist, Israeli air force pilot. In 1965 founded a political party "Ness" which raised the banner of peace with Arab countries. He failed to cross the electoral threshold but declared that if he gains public support he will fly to Egypt carrying a message of peace. In 1966 he flew to Egypt. Following this flight Nathan went on additional trips to enhance peace in the Middle East. Some took him seriously as a peace activist while others viewed him as seeking publicity. Upon his return to Israel Abie Nathan started to dedicate his time and energy to the fight for peace and to humanitarian causes and aiding those in need. He established "The Voice of Peace" radio station which broadcasted from a ship anchored near Tel-Aviv. Abie Nathan was against violence and used hunger strikes as a means for political protests. During the years 1989-1992 struggled against the law forbidding encounters with the enemy and made contact with PLO members and even met with Yasser Arafat. Due to these encounters he was imprisoned twice. In 1997, while in the US, he had a stroke and remained partly paralyzed. In the same year won the "Nuremberg Prize" for human rights.
