Yes, I am a Palestinian
Yes, I am a Muslim
Yes, I am a humanist
Yes, I am a woman
Yes, I am a mother
Yes, I am a grandmother
And
YES
I am a freedom fighter
***
I fight for my right to think freely
I fight for my right to speak my mind
I fight for my right to live in dignity
I fight for my right to cherish all life
I fight for my right to choose my faith
I fight for my right to live my values
I fight for my right to realize my dreams
I fight for my right to go back home
***
I fight against “fitna” which is oppression
I fight against “Udwan” which is aggression
Wholly inhumane
***
I fight with my verses to make headways
My pen is my weapon
My words are my “Jihad”
I fight against greed, vice and supremacy
Either I help bring it down
Or I die doing so
***
And
YES
I am a freedom fighter
Have you any problem with that?

I wish I could do more. All I can do is show people that Palestinians are people, too. I hope that’s enough.

What I can do is remind the to my countrymen: the pain in the heart of the Palestinian refugees, how they live, and continue to find occasions to talk and write and to show what I have seen in Lebanon
