It seems to me that violence against women has been tolerated for so long that the world has become numb to it.

Passionately enjoy life!

War is not a computer-generated missile striking a digital map. War is the color of earth as it explodes in our faces, the sound of child pleading, the smell of smoke and fear. Women survivors of war are not the single image portrayed on the television screen, but the glue that holds families and countries together. Perhaps by understanding women, and the other side of war ... we will have more humility in our discussions of wars... perhaps it is time to listen to womens side of history.

Women are part of peace keeping troops in countries like Liberia.

Everything is give and take. The solutions are in the middle not in the extremity of the situation.

Every woman must own her story; otherwise we are all part of the silence.

Growing up under Saddam's rule, I witnessed many injustices occurring everyday in my country and yet I could not do anything to prevent them.
