Prominent Teenage Palestinian Activist & Her Mother Arrested by IOF

in #palestine7 years ago (edited)

Many of us know this brave young woman well...


(Video 6:15)

Ahed Tamimi, 16 years old and a prominent activist in the occupied Palestinian village of Nabi Saleh, whose courage along with that of her family in standing up to armed Israeli soldiers, land confiscation and settlement construction stealing the resources and even the well of their village has become world-renowned, was seized by occupation soldiers who invaded the Tamimi family home on the morning of 19 December 2017.

Ahed’s father, Bassem, posted on Facebook that Ahed was targeted for arrest after she was attacked by Israeli media after she protested occupation soldiers in Nabi Saleh who shot a 14-year-old boy in the head with a rubber-coated metal bullet; the boy, Mohammed Tamimi, is in a medically-induced coma. Tamimi reported that the soldiers violently invaded the home, hitting Ahed’s mother, Nariman Tamimi, and siblings, and confiscating phones, cameras, laptop and other electronics. Ahed was taken away by the occupation soldiers to an unknown location.

You may remember her rescuing her brother (who had a broken arm) from the IOF.

Here is the video I was looking for but couldn't find when I made my vlog. It is the Mother of Ahed Tamimi being arrested a couple of years ago, while Ahed tries to save her Mother from the IOF. Heartbreaking scenes of Ahed running after the army vehicle which is carrying away Nariman Tamimi.

The IOF are such cunts!
I'll probably get a lot of hate for this but what difference is there between them and the Gestapo/SS anymore??
They're illegally occupying someone else's land to settle their own people, brutalising the indigenous population whilst systematically eradicating them.
The only difference is that they have better PR!
It's fucking horrendous and the world just sits back and blames the victims. Shame on the western governments for allowing this genocide to continue.
Thanks Lyndsay, kudos to you for speaking out babe.

Thank YOU for speaking out too. Together, with enough voices rising and saying NO we can help to Free Palestine. The True Media is never going to back down, our voices will only multiply.

Resteem hopefully this can grow peoples awareness and I hope she stays strong and it out of her illegal detention very soon!

Thank you very much for spreading the word, and for your big heart Vibe.

It will work out soon when the masses awaken!

Most of us have a voice, but the silence of the world has become deafening. In all honesty I can't say where, when or indeed how this will all end but what I do know is that indeed "silence is consent". Trying to stir the masses on such issues is akin to trying to wake someone from a coma .. that said I'm beginning to see eyes flickering! Thank you for your voice and for using it to highlight this oppression @lyndsaybowes

I'm beginning to see a few more people take notice too.

It's soo hard for me to watch such videos as it breaks my heart. One can not even imagine how heavy ones heart would be living such injustices.

I cannot even imagine the hopelessness I would feel after all these decades of violent oppression as the world stands idly by...Palestinians never give up though! They are SO STRONG!!!

people of palestine is under genocide.it should not be continued..it is high time, we helped palestine

It sure is tough to get the world to wake up when MSM lies about what is happening all around us. Nikki Haley looked like an idiot at the UN yesterday.....vetoing the UN resolution regarding Jerusalem. Not everyone is asleep, but propaganda seems to dominated the minds of the sheeple.

Yep and we just have to keep being the TRUE MEDIA and hope that we can break through the walls of silence and disinformation.

That's all we can do.

Israel never actually won a war, they always man up in gangs against unarmed kids and youth while being armored from head to toes. When they got bombed while occupying south of Lebanon, they ran away so fast they even left their shoes behind and overnight their occupied areas were fully abandoned, crying and whaling in tears, that's their truth.

The world needs to understand that Muslims, Jews and Christians lived in perfect harmony before the Zionist occupation, original Jewish families and tribes are also against the Zionist regime. Also the world needs to understand, Israel itself also is temporary and even the Zionist regime does not care about it, it is just a virus and a part of a plan put there to keep the Middle East destabilized and week so they can work on the grand plan. Israel will not exist by 2022. That is four years from now, and will take less than 2 years for it to fully dissolve.

Thank you so much for having "eyes to see" my friend @phuzz!

Ohh it is so heart breaking.i don,t know that why they do it, this so disgusting.
The world need more brave girls like Ahed Tamimi. thanks for letting me know about this, i was not aware about it.

Thank you so much for caring.

I'm quite tired of my government's support for this regime. My most recent podcast episode focuses on the topic of Israel from an American nationalist perspective.

Hard video to watch.

Great, I'll give your podcast a listen.

It is very sad news all of us. We are not able to do anything for palestine without keep them in our prayers. God, please help them....

true, they are suffering enough. The suffer has made her to be a brave girl. No peace, even a minute. Only a pray can make them strong. Thank for sharing with us.

Thank you so much for knowing the truth about the illegal occupation of Palestine.
