Daughters of Palestine: Not a Review Before I even put a sentence into this, I am definite this will not be a review. The title of the book, as much as the content is so personal in its real perspective, that it makes it impossible to study. But yet, I wanted to do that, because I […]

Manal Musa . A voice of Palestine
Arab Idol is bringing the Arab world and the world again with a Palestinian voice that challenges life. A challenge that goes from South to North. A challenge that started last year from Gaza in Mohammad Assaf and went up North to Deir Al-Asad in Manal Mousa. A challenge to Occupation by its very and […]
A diary on Occupation : The language I use is the language I feel .
The language I use is the language I feel. Sometimes there is no place left for making it softer. Today I received this from an Israeli friend responding to my post about the Israeli invasion of Palestine TV program Good Morning Jerusalem: “I think this piece (as well as some others) would be far more […]

I was listening to some news about the Israelis renewed the attempt to demolish the Mughrabi Gate and the installation of the new bridge, in preparation to create a museum or whatever…under the tunnels… and somehow behind all the political games of occupation and attempts of seizing more control over Jerusalem and AL-Aqsa and everything […]
Whatever

I was so furious , to express my rage in Arabic. It happened to me when I decided to get a divorce. […]
Reflection on a bitter reflection
It is just heartrending to watch this all. I do not know what funny, what sarcastic, what ironic, or what simply too sad is. It is all too sad to watch and live. I am still reflecting on your words of yesterday, now on TV, another Egyptian analyst was saying your exact words about a […]
Reality or Illusion
Reality of Illusion In a start up of a year , that all its realities are nothing but a continued illusion . I feel myself forced to stop and allude myself with a reality that continues to force itself into an illusion . Of course this must be the effect of philosophy studies on me […]
