“The force is voluntary and the fedayat serve four-hour shifts in the morning from or in the afternoon to permit the women to carry on with their normal profession.  Etidal Hamad, a 34-year-old government employee and mother of three girls, says while her husband also encouraged her, her primary motivation to sign up three months ago was ‘a desire to support the army and defend the fatherland’.  In the stadium parade that marks the end of the training, the women shout at the top of their lungs: ‘With our blood and our souls, we sacrifice ourselves for you, O Bashar!'”
