Meet #AhlamTamimi who killed my daughter #Malki and 15 others. Hard not to see the thrill she gets from talking about her massacre. She's not in prison: #Jordan's king can explain why.
Thanks to @MEMRIreports who do non-Arabic-speakers a great service by translating such clips.
I'm convinced that if enough people invest the 2 mins it takes to watch my daughter's proud, happy and free killer #AhlamTamimi, we'll have enough public opinion behind us to ensure Jordan, which shields her today, hands her over for extradition to the US (they currently refuse).
When did @NYTimes report on Jordan's harboring of my child's murderer, @FBI fugitive #AhlamTamimi?

Never.

Her name comes up in this report [nytimes.com/2017/07/17/wor…] only because of the outstanding decency of the fathers of 3 US Green Berets murdered on a #Jordan base in 2016.
She was the first female to be recruited to the blood-drenched ranks of #Hamas. She has never, in the years since the Jerusalem pizzeria massacre that she says was directed at Jewish children, pretended to regret or deny.

US-ally #Jordan keeps her safe:

In the next day or two, the tweet with the video clip of my daughter's killer boasting and inciting will have passed the 100,000 impressions mark. A week ago the same woman, #AhlamTamimi, was the main speaker at an Amman, Jordan, forum in support of more terrorism like her own.
The impressions count of this tweet showing the grinning @FBIMostWanted terrorist who blew to pieces 16 innocent Jewish victims in a pizzeria attack (my daughter among them) passed the 100,000 mark in the last few minutes. Our efforts to see her extradited to the US go on.
Number of clip views where #AhlamTamimi, now sheltered from extradition to the US by #Jordan where she lives free as a bird, boasts of bombing the Jerusalem #Sbarro pizzeria: 130,000+

Number of mainstream news reports about what Jordan is doing: Zero.

Two US nationals were murdered in the bombing orchestrated by Jordan's #AhlamTamimi; a third is still unconscious. Tamimi calls the massacre "my operation". She's lionized for it.

Why has no US official ever demanded publicly that Jordan extradite Tamimi as the treaty requires?
Thanks to years of cynical protection by Jordan, confessed bomber #AhlamTamimi is a pan-Arab media celebrity. Clever interviewers and ethically-challenged hosts 'forget' to ask Jordan's king, a frequent visitor to Washington, how Jordan justifies disavowing the 1995 treaty.
@CNN's celebrity interviewer @FareedZakaria stands out for repeatedly hosting Jordan's king without once allowing Jordan's shameless harboring of @FBIMostWanted terrorist #Tamimi to spoil the fun. What would you say to him if it were your child who was one of #Tamimi's victims?

Days of remembrance and tribute are fine and commendable except when they come in place of action and become camouflage. Terrorism isn't a disease but a challenge to governments. My wife and I ask you, @StateDeptSpox @NedPrice, to engage with us. Enough with the mantras.
Since no one at your level in seniority in today's @StateDepartment or those of the Trump and Obama administrations has ever acknowledged our existence, Mr @StateDeptSpox, I want to take this opportunity to introduce you to our child's killer, a Jordanian celebrity.
And since your tweet states your position on the pursuit of justice, Frimet and I assure you we're as passionate about this as you. It's why I met with senior officials in Washington in March 2012. And why we have devoted ourselves since then to seeing Tamimi in a US court.

I have not yet met a member of Congress who views @FBIMostWanted #AhlamTamimi as worthy of being defended. She openly admits bombing the pizzeria where my child's life ended. She faces US terror charges but is kept out of @FBI hands by Jordan's govt. Jordan's king is in...
...Washington at this moment. He's being honored in the Oval Office, the House and the Senate. In the US news media too. That's troubling because it's his tightly controlled regime that has thwarted US justice since the charges were unsealed in 2017. I'm infuriated by the empty
...words of @StateDept officials who for years have declared their determination to see #AhlamTamimi, the admitted bomber, brought to US justice. Yet here we are, years later, and the bomber's celebrity status in Jordan keeps rising.

Enough! Drop the pretence and own up to...

I'm speaking at a @CAMERAorg Webinar Feb 11 at 1pm ET on terror and my family's quest for justice. Our daughter Malki was murdered at 15 in the #PalArab terror attack on a pizzeria. Appalling to me how the bomber's freedom and fame are ignored. To register us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
This is her. Jordan's government and diplomats don't want you to know how widely #AhlamTamimi is adored by Jordanian society. The reason why has to do with dead Jewish children like mine. The media suppress this for reasons I think I can explain.
If only my wife and I could compel the many politicians, diplomats, editors, commentators, human rights 'champions' and #justice 'heroes' who suppress the shabby story of this woman's freedom to look her evil in the face: #AhlamTamimi, our child's free-as-a-bird killer

Like me, you may be offended or at least puzzled by views you sometimes see slipped into news reports. Could be spin; maybe bias. But only word captures how the mainstream news industry covers Jordan keeping a confessed bomber shielded from US justice.

The word is "silent".
This video clip has never been included in any mainstream news report: #AhlamTamimi, the Jordanian woman who says openly, for the record, that she bombed the Jerusalem #Sbarro pizzeria and calls it "my operation". Watch the smile as she tells it.
Hashemite Jordan could have denounced her, arrested her, tried her on terrorism charges, handed her to US law enforcement (as the treaty demands). Instead they did this: they let #AhlamTamimi host her own terror-promoting TV show, filmed weekly in Jordan's capital, for 5 years!

I sometimes need to say this to others so I can make sense of it to myself: This woman, alive, happy, protected in ways most people wouldn't believe by a government that's on fine terms with most countries, is famous because she murdered my 15 year old daughter and 14 others.
2/
She will stay famous, free, upbeat and adored in #Jordan where she lives until my wife and I and our friends manage to find the way to have the US government raise its voice and tell Jordan this is sickening and under the treaty she has to be sent to Washington this afternoon

We've pushed for this since the US unsealed terror charges against this woman (who is a Hamas agent) in March 2017. Few people ever argue back at bereaved parents like us. Instead, as the news industry and too many officials and lawmakers do, they just stare.

And do nothing.
