This girl has been indoctrinated from a young age to provoke IDF soldiers.
She is a child of people born into occupation where their land and resources, in the case of this village their water resources are being taken from them. Her parents have most certainly brought her up not to feel subservient despite the horrendous situation she was born into. Why do you find it so strange that 2nd generation people born into military rule and the theft of their land would resist? Why to you is this such an outlandish thing for anyone to do? It people started treating you in this way would you just think that is fine and encourage your children to bow down to the people who are stealing your land and resources?

Been going on for a long time. Israel is very frightened of this girl. She appears white..not only that she wears Western Clothes and worse of all she does not put herself beneath Israeli Jews. She does not know her place is to act subservient to her colonial masters. Israel fears given all this the West may feel empathy for her. People have been following her ever since she first started waving her fist. Now if you believe what she had done to a soldier who came illegally into her yard less than an hour after shooting her 15 year old cousin in the head - he is still alive but with part of his skull missing...if you believe that that action was criminal then again I would ask you how you would feel if indeed it was a white girl in your country. What we would think was that she had been through a trauma and should be treated like that, not kept in jail for 2 months before trial and then looking to get a sentence of 10 to 20 years they are so scared of her.
Another 17 year old cousin of hers was the first Palestinian to be killed by the Israelis this year and there is a video which illustrates clearly he was absolutely no threat to them so clearly a criminal kill. Is anyone talking of that? No.
Ahed Tamimi is indeed an icon. At the same time she stands for the hundreds of children currently held in military detention having been brought before a military trial where guilty is a forgone conclusion.
Tamimi was arrested not because of the action she took but because Israelis could not take her not understanding her subservient place. That is why she was arrested. They believed she humiliated their soldiers and so like slaves before her must be beaten.

In the end she will spend some time in jail, and nothing will come out of it.
By looking up the article one can see the video where for 3 full minutes she is slapping and kicking Israeli soldiers. The soldiers do not react at all so their attempt to create some paliwood videos failed badly.
She has already spent 2 months in jail for hitting a soldier who came illegally into her yard after having shot her 14 year old cousin in the head only one hour before. To you a Palestinian life is 'paliwood'. It is not real. It would seem that to you a Palestinian life has no value, that Palestinian people to you are not human. They should not get upset at the killing of their family. well well.
