Leila Khalid AKA Che-Leila
For those who dosn't know who's Leila khalid





she hijacked airplanes
is a former member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
1969 Leila khalid was part of a team that hijacked TWA Flight 840 on its way from Rome to Athens, diverting the Boeing 707 to Damascus, where it landed after flying over Haifa in order for Leila khalid to see her birthplace,
which she was not allowed to visit, the same as what is happining to all of palestinians now!!

Once leila khalid was asked
What was the purpose of the 1970 hijackings?
Nobody had heard our screams and suffering. All we got from the world was more tents and old clothes.We wanted to go back to our homeland. We also wanted to release our prisoners from Israeli jails.We aimed to do all these things through these actions.



According to Leila khalid, “It’s not a peace process. It’s a political process where the balance of forces is for the Israelis and not for us. They have all the cards to play with and the Palestinians have nothing to depend on, especially when the PLO is not united."

Leila today lives with her two sons Bader and Bashar in Amman, Jordan


It's not the way we see things, it's the way we act to a particular event. i love u leila.
