That's what happens when you marry a Muslim. You give up your rights as a
woman and as an American. Now you've lost your kids. You got what you
deserved.

Bethany Gonzales with her three children, 13-year-old Jehed, 10-year-old,
Edhem, and 9-year-old Jannah
The

Authorities in the U.S. have accused a divorced Palestinian man, Ahmed
Abuhamda, of illegally moving his three children from their home in Kansas
to his native Gaza earlier this year. Abuhamda has been charged in Kansas
with aggravated interference with parental custody. Last week, he was
charged in a federal criminal complaint in U.S. District Court with fleeing
to avoid prosecution on the three state felony counts.

13-year-old Jehed six months from now
*The federal court filing alleges Abuhamda used his sister's wedding in
Gaza to convince his ex-wife, Bethany Gonzales, to sign off on passport
applications for the children — 13-year-old Jehed, 10-year-old Edhem and
9-year-old Jannah. He picked up the three children from school Feb. 21, but
instead of returning the children in March, he unlawfully kept them in
Gaza, according to court documents.*
*Gonzales contends she allowed the children to go to Gaza in February for
the wedding and that Abuhamda led her to believe he had booked flights back
to the U.S. for them. She showed the AP an email she said her ex-husband
sent her beforehand that indicated a "reservation confirmed" flight back to
Kansas.* *(And you actually believed him?)*

10-year-old Edhem, six months from now
"There is no way I would agree for my kids to go there and stay there,"
said Gonzales, 32. She said she contacted authorities after she found out
the return flight information was fake. By then, her ex-husband's apartment
had been cleaned out. *She said she later got a text message from him
saying he was not coming back.*
*The U.S.-born Gonzales met Abuhamda in Missouri after converting to Islam
at age 15. The couple talked over the phone for a year and went out on
couple of dates before deciding to marry in 1996, when Gonzales was 16. *She
and Abuhamda moved sporadically between the U.S. and Gaza between 1997 and
2005. Their oldest son, Jehed, was born in Gaza, while the other two
children were born in the U.S. After their divorce, the couple lived a
10-minute drive apart in Overland Park.
Gonzales, says she wants her children back in the U.S., but she has
limited political and legal means available to her in the Gaza Strip, a
largely isolated and impoverished Palestinian territory ruled by the
Islamic militant group Hamas.

9-year-old Jannah six months from now
However, *Under the couple's 2008 divorce decree, the children lived with
the father and the mother had visitation rights. *The divorce decree allows
Abuhamda to move the children overseas, provided he has their mother's
permission. Abuhamda told The Associated Press in a phone interview from
the Gaza Strip that he had her blessing, but Gonzales said that's untrue
and he deceived her.* (After all those years with a Muslim, you're shocked
that he would lie to you?)*
Though U.S. authorities have charged Abuhamda, authorities in Gaza are
unlikely to pursue the matter. The U.S. arrest warrant can be registered
with Interpol,* but Gaza does not have to honor it.* Gonzales could appeal
diplomatically to Hamas leaders and try to put political pressure on
authorities there, but there's little guarantee they would listen.
*The Hague Convention, an international treaty that provides for the return
of wrongfully removed or retained children, includes only one Muslim
nation, Turkey,* said Andrew Zashin, an international family law attorney
from Cleveland, Ohio, who is not involved in the case.
*Family law in Gaza, like in most Arab countries, is based on Sharia
Islamic law. It awards legal guardianship of the child to the father while
granting physical custody for rearing the child to the mother until a boy
reaches age 9 and a girl reaches age 12, although some countries have now
extended that to age 15 regardless of gender. However, a mother would not
be able to leave the country with her children without the father's
permission.*
