The Tamimis were involved in protests and political agitation, demonstrating their opposition to the expansion of Israeli settlements and detention of Palestinians.[7] Tamimi shares similar convictions to her family's and commentators have been polarised in their assessment of her. She believes documented, organized protests against the Israeli occupation will lead to wider recognition of the Palestinian struggle for autonomy; her viral images and videos have produced a wave of public reactions in Israel and Palestine, as well as internationally.[2][8]
At 11 years old, Tamimi was commended for her courage by President of the Palestinian National Authority Mahmoud Abbas for attempting to intervene during her mother's arrest in August 2012.[9] By 2012, she had become an internationally recognized figure; as an Israeli soldier arrested her older brother, Tamimi confronted him while waving a fist, a scene that went viral and earned her an invitation to visit Turkey from then-Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.[8] She gained recognition once more three years later, after being filmed biting and striking a masked Israeli soldier who was apprehending her brother for throwing stones.[7][10]
In December 2016, the US denied Tamimi a visa for a speaking tour titled "No Child Behind Bars/Living Resistance".[11]

Israelis have seriously lost their minds.
Yahoo is now part of Oath
A 16 year old girl hits a soldier who was trying to detain her little brother. And these "types of terrorists" should be treated harshly?
This is a sickness that white people are by-and-large solely responsible for.

not only that, she was already imprisoned for eight months. what else do these people want? a ten year old prison sentence for a 16 year old girl slapping an occupying officer? should she be shot on sight?Israelis have seriously lost their minds.

this is an extreme attitude of entitlement to the life and death of native people on behalf of an occupying white settler group. and it is consistent throughout the world - america (still ongoing- see standing rock), 50s era algeria, apartheid south africa, etc

thats not relevant to whether a white settler group like israeli jews feels entitled to her landThe Palestinian girl is white.

what are you talking about? this isnt an issue about black and white people. it involves a native people (the palestinians) being displaced by a jewish settler community using the tactics established by other white settler groups. white people are perfectly capable of using settler colonial tactics against other white people who they think are different from them - again, see algeria
