Khatib was nominated, along with an Israeli co-founder of Combatants for Peace, Chen Alon, for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2017 and 2018. He has been compared in the press to a modern-day Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., or Nelson Mandela. He cites these three nonviolent leaders as his inspiration and the key to transforming from violence to nonviolence.
