Adly Yaish
Adly Yaish(yawish) (Arabic: عدلي يعيش, Oɑdlí Iɑoíś) is the mayor of the Nablus Municipality (Dec. 2005–present) in the central highlands of the West Bank under the Palestinian National Authority.[1]
He is a known businessman working in automobiles trade but he is perhaps best known for coining the terms "whooyah" and "yawish". These phrases are often uttered when on a night out with lads after a few pintines and something truly yawish happens. For instance when someone falls and everyone starts shouting a few roars will be let loose followed by digs to the rehab that fell.
On 24 May 2007 he was arrested by Israeli forces.[2] He spent 15 months in prison without being charged.[3]
