Zainab Salbi

Do you know that people fall in love in war and go to school and go to factories and hospitals and get divorced and go dancing and go playing and live life?

Everything can be taken from you in a second, but the human spirit is so strong. War can teach you so much about evil, and so much about good.

I believe that there is an urgent need to restructure the discussion of war to include the impact it has on women.

I find it amazing that the only group of people who are not fighting and not killing and not pillaging and not burning and not raping, and the group of people who are mostly — though not exclusively — who are keeping life going in the midst of war, are not included in the negotiating table.

My message to the world is that until we recognize that peace is not just the absence of war but the revival of life on the “backlines,” where women are keeping kids in school, caring for the sick and injured, and daily negotiating space for the continuation of critical life processes of this nature, we’re going to continue to miss the point.

The front[line] of wars is increasingly non-human eyes peering down on our perceived enemies from space, guiding missiles toward unseen targets.

War is not a computer-generated missile striking a digital map. War is the color of earth as it explodes in our faces, the sound of child pleading, the smell of smoke and fear. Women survivors of war are not the single image portrayed on the television screen, but the glue that holds families and countries together. Perhaps by understanding women, and the other side of war … we will have more humility in our discussions of wars… perhaps it is time to listen to womens side of history.

When war ends, women are the first to pick up the pieces. Where there is no market place, they go door to door. When homes are destroyed, mothers and daughters haul stones to rebuild or plow fields together.

Working with women survivors of war has taught me that we need to listen to women’s perspectives on war in order to understand how to effectively rebuild a country, a community and a family.
