Anti-Palestinians in Wales.

Image
  There are plenty of Anti-Palestinian individuals, and maybe even organizations that are located between Aberystwyth and Haverfordwest, I know this after I witnessed some abuse towards us at the Aberystwyth protest and rally for “ Kill The Bill Stands with Palestine and Colombia” on the 30th of May 2021, and at the 31st at Haverfordwest “Free Palestine” protest.

Despite this heartache, I will share some of what I know about Qatayef with you and how I came to learn about it and even when I first tasted this beautiful dessert. (I have attached some photos of the Qatayef sweets that I have prepared at home for various occasions). I remember first seeing Qatayef after I moved with my family to the camp of Ein Al-Hilweh (Palestinian Refugee camp in southern of Lebanon) in November 1993, while it was my first month of the Holy Ramadan on the camp there. I was so excited to move ...
