Raising Yousuf and Noor: diary of a Palestinian mother
I am a Palestinian from Gaza. I am a journalist. I am a mother. I am a Muslim. This blog is about the trials of raising my children between spaces and identities; displacement and occupation; and everything that entails from potty training to border crossings. My husband is a Palestinian refugee denied his right of return to Palestine, and thus OUR right to family life. Together, we endure a lot, and the personal becomes political. This is our story.
About Me
- Name: Laila
- Location: somewhere between the seas, Gaza Strip, Palestine

First I found out your blog. Next , out of curiosity , I searched for texts written by you on the web and I found plenty.
The articles are well written...,tough I enjoy more the blog, lol. The articles are more political. The blog..., is more personal. Besides in the blog your humour does show , something it does not happen in the articles .
Besides not to forge ( as Arafat would say ) that I am pro israeli so to speak, tought I do not condone or suport the human rights violations against inocent people..
