I'm so glad you included Leila Khaled's story. There are so many Middle Eastern women who have been either forgotten or erased, yet their contributions have been immense. Take Jamila Buharid, another resistance fighter from Algeria (whom I wrote about), who shares the same reasons for her battle as Leila Khaled. Motherhood always has a negative societal view regarding a mother's involvement in political issues, yet history shows the contrary. A mother will fight twice as hard for her country as her fellow countrymen for the sake of her children. Thank you for sharing this informative piece.
