I appreciate much your critical insi...Dear Mahmoud,<br />I appreciate much your critical insight which continues to surprise me!! The issue you broached in this article is really complex and divaricated since it is inextricably linked to other big issues of “homeland” “identity and belonging” “nationalism,” “transformation,” “border,” “community,” etc. When it comes to how the Moroccan unemployed see and talk about their country it is always ambivalent! As you said, their representation of Morocco reflects their torn identities,their tormented souls, their anxiety at the social and economic conditions and their plight under a corrupt system. Here, both love and aversion, hope and despair and all contradictory feelings intermingle and interweave. My words spring from the experience of an ex-unemployed who had been selling little articles in the beaches of the country. I still remember exactly the prism through which I conceived everything at that time.<br />Thanks for these critical issues and keep challenging our what we think we “know”.<br />Youssef EL KAIDIYoussef EL KAIDInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8288171818499101223.post-31192530187697787972011-11-05T12:46:09.170-07:002011-11-05T12:46:09.170-07:00Dear Mahmoud,

It is not a place of wars, oppression, dictatorship, deprivation and wretch; and it is not a country of peace, fairness, democracy, welfare and happiness. Let us be reasonable an insightful, for those who see Morocco as a black nation, which color would they choose to paint Sudan, Somali, Haiti, Afghanistan, Iraq and the examples are legion. Do not be sad because you do not have a car, others’ legs are amputated. Often when we face obstacles in our day-to-day life, our hurdles seem very small in comparison to what many others have to face. Moreover, it should be stamped in the tablet of each one’s heart and mind that our Almighty God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.kamal charmitinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8288171818499101223.post-91555475383089366612011-11-05T12:35:36.723-07:002011-11-05T12:35:36.723-07:00very insightful and too subjectively analysed.
