Born in Malta

I have read the story (July 14) about the Galaal Balaama family.

"Our children were brought up to be proud to be Libyan but I hope they will not be bullied when they join a mainstream school. I guess they have to be strong to establish solid friendships that go beyond race and culture," she said.

Now my question is: If the three children were born and bred in Malta why are they proud "to be Libyan"? Their father is Libyan, ok, but their mother is Maltese. Why is their mother not even considered? In a case like this these children are usually called half Maltese and half Libyans. But these children "are proud to be Libyans".

This report confirms the Muslim male superior and dominance over his subordinate, subservient wife!
