The Blessed Month of Dhul Hijjah

Sunday, January 14, 2007

As salaamu alaykum,

I'm glad that you put this up. The interview with the mother and daughter was deeply moving for me. I think about them often. The analysis of the so-called expert they had was ridiculous though. Hizbollah's social support network is run by women. Most of its grassroots work in terms of education, welfare system, fundraising etc. is either run by women completely or largely. So, the role of women extends far beyond their roles as "wives and mothers raising children and instilling in them the culture of resistance" as true as that is women's roles in Hizbollah from political office to grass roots work is far more extensive than that.
