www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlTr... Feminism is not enough. Chchchantal Akerman is a case in point. Even her common sense betrays her. She asks an audience member to visit South Africa, but doesn't want him to give her a tour of Palestine-Israel.

Back in 2004, 'Enough!' (Kefaya in colloquial Arabic) meant 'No extension of Mubarak's rule! No succession!' Today, in 2026, 'Enough!' (Kafa in standard Arabic) means: Enough with systemic judicial abuse and unlawful confinement!

The history of my online writing is funny. Websites became defunct or were blocked. Contributions disappeared. Or were hard to navigate or find. Editors wouldn't do errata or consider translations.
