Whether or not one believes a US/European military intervention against the Islamic State is a strategy that is likely to fail,
whether or not one foresees, as a result of opting for the wrong strategy, decades of chaos in the region and more fighters joining IS,

whether or not one is an all-out pacifist opposed to any war, even against Hitler (or the new Hitlers of our times that we, in Algeria, have been labeling ‘green-fascists’ since the nineties),

Syria & Bosnia Women Confer on Importance of Women-Driven Peace

النساء والثورة السورية

أحضرونا بالباص، كنا مجموعة كبيرة من الرفيقات والرفاق، أذكر أن أيدينا كانت مقيدة بالأغلال، تملكني الخوف من الوصول إلى ذلك المكان، والتحقيق المتوقع، ومن مقابلة مضر الذي كنت أتوقع وجوده هناك، ورؤية كل الرفاق. اعترتني مجموعة مختلطة من المشاعر من الخوف والترقب والرغبة… ولكن كل شيء اختفى في طريقنا عندما بدأت بالاقتراب من المدينة التي أحببتها وما زلت، لم أشعر بطول الطريق أو بالوقت الذي مر… دمشق كانت تلوح في الأفق أمامنا.
