The dignity that comes from massacring a pizzeria filled with children.
Have just watched US Senate hearing into the appointment of an ambassador to Amman.

Guess how much attention the world's most wanted female fugitive living free in the capital of a strategic ally and Jordan's most important institutions shielding her from @TheJusticeDept got.
Simply beyond comprehension that the woman at the top of this thread, who boasts - boasts! - of killing many children including mine, evades US justice and lives like a queen in #Jordan because the US sees pursuing her as destabilizing its Jordanian ally.

No less disturbing: Both @KingAbdullahII and Jordan's ambassador to DC @AmbKawar are considered moderate, media-savvy, often interviewed. US charges against #AhlamTamimi were unsealed in 2017. No mainstream TV or news platform has ever asked either of them a single damn question.
This is a thread that captures a small part of the intense frustration and, yes, the anger crushing us as we battle the pathetic indifference of politicians, diplomats, the media to see #justice done for the victims of the #Sbarro massacre. Please share it as widely as you can.

With due respect to all the relevant parties, that doesn't strike me as the right approach. @TheJusticeDept and @StateDept have tried since 2013 to persuade @JordanGov, which is party to an active extradition treaty with the US, to honor its obligations. Jordan's highest court

 declared in March 2017, less than a week after the charges against #AhlamTamimi were unsealed in Washington, that the treaty signed by the present king's father and the Clinton Administration was invalid on constitutional grounds. And had been invalid since day one!

 The US says it doesn't agree [thisongoingwar.blogspot.com/2019/11/03-nov…]. The confessed #Sbarro bomber, meanwhile, instead of preparing herself to face federal charges in Washington, lives the life of a privileged celebrity in Jordan. The kingdom enabled her to host a terror-inciting TV show

 Things to know about #Jordan:
- Depends on US financial, security support
- Has extradited to US under 1995 treaty whenever asked
- Keeps the savage in clip below safe from the Feds on the unlikely grounds the treaty is unconstitutional.
- US says it's valid
Media? Crickets.

Practically everything @MattiFriedman writes is incisive and worth the effort. This latest @NYTimes piece comes with a high-res photo of the devastated Sbarro pizzeria minutes after #AhlamTamimi delivered her human bomb there. My daughter's inside, dead. She isn't seen.

My wife and I first heard of #Tamimi, a woman of 21 back then, much later via news reports. She confessed to her key role, never stopped grinning, confidently told the judges she would get out soon despite the 16 life term sentence they gave her.

And she did. She walked free a few years later in the #ShalitDeal. With unreported help from the Kingdom of Jordan she quickly became a celebrity activist there for terror and its practitioners. She still is despite now being an @FBIMostWanted who faces charges in Washington.
