Women in politics are more honest and forthright. We are not in it for the ego gratification.

The rise of Hamas is a product of the failures of political will in the international community, of the absence of the peace process, of the increase in violence and ideology.

Women in politics are more honest and forthright. We are not in it for the ego gratification.
