In the eye of the storm -- Growing up in Cairo -- Living in two worlds -- Marriage and family dynamics -- The invisible wall -- A new beginning in America -- The journey from hatred to love -- A second look after twenty years -- Jihad comes to America -- Arabs for Israel -- The challenge for America. When Darwish was eight, her father died leading a Fedayeen raid into Israel. Her family moved back to Cairo, where they were honored as survivors of a martyr for jihad. She grew up learning the same lessons as millions of Muslim children: to hate Jews, destroy Israel, oppose America, and submit to dictatorship. But Darwish became appalled by the anger and hatred in her culture, and in 1978 she emigrated to America, where she lectures and writes on behalf of moderate Arabs. |
