#Tamimi

[matan4il]

I just saw with my 2 fucking eyes ST calling Bassem Tamimi a peace activist, the guy who made his child go confront IDF soldiers for clout aand thinks stone throwing - which kills people, including friendly fire between Palestinians - is so cool

Nonnie, I am... You know that thing where you just smile wide, because reality is too much to deal with, and you just have to detach from it for a minute? That's me right now.

I mean, one of the things I've noted over the years is that often, the worst takes from Standing Together's leaders are posted on their personal social media accounts rather than the official ones, which makes it a bit harder to explain why the notion of the movement is great, while what they do in practice is awful and anti-Israeli. So when I got your ask I was wondering on which private account they posted that, but no. They posted it on an official ST account. There is not enough 'face palm' in the world for this.

Bassem Tamimi was arrested in October due to suspicion that he was aiding terrorist activity against Israel. If you ask me, he should have been arrested for child abuse as well, the way he's used his kids, pushing them repeatedly at soldiers to gain clout among the anti-Israel crowd, and praising them when they got arrested for violent terrorist activity. He has also generally encouraged rock throwing terrorist attacks.

The ST post claims that Bassem advocates for non-violent resistance, which is an absolute lie. He supports rock throwing at Israelis, which IS a violent act (funny how for the anti-Israel crowd, Israeli words are violence, but Palestinians throwing rocks at Israelis, which has killed more than once, isn't. For some reason, I have never seen any of the people claiming that rock throwing is a form of non-violent resistance volunteering to be its physical targets, I wonder why. Anyway, reminder that when it comes to non-Israelis, people have no issue calling deaths caused by rock throwing "murder," even when executed by teenagers, or calling out the terrorizing quality of such crimes).

Not to mention that Bassem's own daughter, Ahed Tamimi (who is mentioned in the same ST post as having been arrested by Israel "multiple times", and who the family has actually sent countless times to confront soldiers in order to film her "bravery" when really, that's child abuse) was arrested twice, the first time for physically assaulting a soldier. The second time was after the Hamas massacre, when Ahed posted on social media, promising that Palestinians will slaughter Jews, and that "you will say what Hitler did to you is a joke" in comparison, that Palestinians will drink the blood of Jews and eat their skulls. Yeah, SO non-violent!

Let's also not forget that Bassem's niece, Ahlam Tamimi, was a terrorist who helped carry out the Sbarro restaurant suicide bombing in 2001, a massacre of 16 people (since the Palestinians insist on counting unborn children when pregnant women get killed in the conflict, I think it's only fair Israelis do the same), leaving another person in a vegetative state for over 20 years. Ahlam's interviews from Israeli prison and after she was freed in a hostage deal are some of the most chilling I've ever seen, and this woman is a "journalist" and an icon for the anti-Israel mob, living in and broadcasting from Jordan, allowing her to help poison the minds of the next generation.

Nothing about the arrests of either Bassem (or Ahed or Ahlam) was arbitrary, unlike the claim in that ST post.

I'm just... beyond sickened. Anyway, this will also go under my Standing Together tag for easy reference, if you ever need it.

Activist Ahed Tamimi among Palestinians freed by Israel in Gaza truce swap | Reuters

Prominent Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi was among 30 prisoners freed by Israel early on Thursday under a temporary Gaza truce between Israel and Hamas militants, according to Israeli and Palestinian officials.

Israeli troops earlier this month arrested Tamimi, regarded in the occupied West Bank as a hero since she was a teenager, on suspicion of inciting violence. Her mother has denied the allegation and said it was based on a fake social media post.

Israeli forces arrested Ahed Tamimi in a pre-dawn raid of her home in the village of Nabi Saleh, occupied West Bank. An Israeli intelligence officer took this photo of her and posted it online. Soldiers also ransacked her home, as shown in these photos.

Ahed’s father, Bassem Tamimi, was arrested over a week ago as he was trying to travel to Jordan. The family has no idea where he is being held and have heard nothing.

An Israel surveillance drone has been flying above their home for days .

I have heard alarming reports of the abuse Palestinian prisoners are suffering in Israeli prisons in recent weeks and am deeply concerned about their safety.

As many of you know, I coauthored They Called Me A Lioness: A Palestinian Girl’s Fight For Freedom with Ahed.

Note that Ahed was detained in 2017 by Israeli forces when she was 16 years old and was sentenced to 8 months in prison.

(Nov. 30)

@Dena: Ahed Tamimi revealed that her Israeli captors told her “we have your father in prison and if you speak, we’ll kill him” upon her release. I’m deeply disturbed by how visibly traumatized and worn down she appears coming out of Israeli prison, where we know she was beaten.

Later, her family would claim that her account was hacked.

Does anyone remember Ahed Tamimi? Lioness of Palestine? 16 year old girl arrested by Israeli police some years back? This girl:

She recently wrote a memoir, “They Called Me A Lioness: A Palestinian Girl’s Fight For Freedom” and it’s genuinely one of the best memoirs I’ve ever read. There’s only 45 or so reviews of it online and I’d recommend anyone even remotely interested in her or the Israeli occupation of Palestine read it and spread it anywhere you can. Not only is it a detailed record of her family and community’s fight against Israeli occupiers, but also of the history of Palestine’s occupation and the protests that followed.

Airhead (Ahed) Tamimi explains how tough things were for her in Israeli prison recently.

She mentions the fun and parties with singing and dancing that they had.
