Having embraced Islam, Mouneimne somehow stuck to Zionism (or a school of thought that entitles Jews to Israel). Then, this journalist was assigned to cover a pro-Palestinian march. It was here that the truth caught up with her. Her prejudices shaken. “In my heart, somewhere deep inside, I still believed that if you were marching for Palestine then you must be extreme,” recalls this journalist. “And when I was there I heard that there was no burning of flag (nor) hate speech. The Ulaama that was speaking and the activists that were speaking were very passionate about the Palestinian cause and what they were speaking about made a lot of sense. It was hard to deny the truth anymore.”
