Falastin quote
By Mary Rizzo • Jun 18th, 2008 at 20:11 • Category: Falastin, QuotesThe years went by, and even though I missed my family and occasionally my old way of life, the warmth of the Palestinian people and their deep devotion and love of family and country gained my highest respect. I was proud to raise my children in a society that, in spite of so much turmoil and suffering on its soil, still kept its traditions and respected its elders, honoured its guests, and kept the family unit well intact.
Geraldine Shawa, President of Aftaluna Society for the Deaf in Gaza
