By "mini settlers", the pervert below means dead Jewish children blown up by the human bomb brought to the target site, a pizzeria, by #AhlamTamimi. Tamimi is a fugitive from US justice kept safe by Jordan. Jordan is bound by its treaty with the US to hand her over and refuses. The fugitive bomber hosted her own toxic, made-in-Jordan terror-promoting TV show for 5 years. She remains a constant presence in the Arabic media. The photo below from @Facebook shows #AhlamTamimi happily present at a small gathering of admiring Jordanians in May 2024. Image

My thread ↓ tries to express the betrayal of seeing a fugitive #Hamas savage, my child's admitted killer, shielded from US justice by US officials.
Yes, the Jordanians refuse to extradite her.
But they get away with it only because of the quiet backing of US policy officials. 1/3
One of the most painful parts of being betrayed as we fight for the Jordanian perpetrator of a massacre of Jewish children to be brought to trial in Washington (she was charged in 2013) is the way this issue and Jordan's obstruction are ignored by America's Jewish leaders. Image

Hear the barbarian. Listen so the images and the sickening lust is never forgotten.

The woman who murdered my daughter Malki, just 15, in the bombing of a pizzeria filled with kids gets adoration like you see in the clip below. That woman is kept safe from US justice by Jordan. My daughter died at the hands of this woman. She's a terrorist serving #Hamas. Because my child was a US citizen, as were another two of the many slaughtered by #AhlamTamimi, she faces charges in Washington. But so long as Jordan's @KingAbdullahII keeps her safe, she stays free.

...But what we don't get is why the media never ask Jordan's ambassador to Washington about #AhlamTamimi. And why so many major US Jewish organizations agree to sit down with her at Jordan's embassy and fancy receptions and pretend not to notice what's in the air. For how long can someone be an @FBIMostWanted fugitive and continue to live free, even appearing in its media, in a country that everyone somehow respects as a top-tier US ally and massive beneficiary of US aid?

Thread: The @StateDept and the fugitive bomber 2
It starts with how @NedPrice, @StateDept mouthpiece for the claim that accountability is needed in the cases of an @Aljazeera reporter and a girl on a Jenin rooftop, both killed in gunfights where #PalArab shooters were wildly active, avoids all mention of my murdered daughter.

An Arab child is found dead on a Jenin rooftop and @StateDept spox @nedprice again calls for #accountability. But Price never utters my daughter Malki's name. An American, she was killed by a fugitive who faces US terror charges but Jordan harbors her. i24news.tv/en/news/israel… My child, an American, is murdered in a massacre spearheaded by a bragging Jordanian savage who makes a celebrity career out of it, kept safe from US prosecutors by a Jordanian claim no one believes. Killed at 15, that lovely child has a name, Mr @StateDeptSpox.

It's Malki. Image

It's hard to convey the depths of the frustration. We're fighting to get public officials to do their duty, to prosecute an indicted, admitted bomber/terrorist. They don't say "stop" or "you're wrong". It's easier to just ignore us. Or to just say "We're doing it but..."
1/6 But what? Jordan doesn't want the headache of handing over a mass-murdering felon? One who happens to be an icon, a celebrity, widely adored and never publicly criticized over there? Has someone decided the Jordanian street's embrace of antisemitic terror can veto US justice?

No US government official or diplomat in any of the Obama, Trump or Biden administrations has tried to justify US passivity in the face of Jordan's harboring and disgraceful empowering of the woman charged with being the @Sbarro bomber. They simply ignore it and so do the media. Most of those who follow my wife @FrimetRoth or me or our joint account @ThisOngoingWar on Twitter know at least the basics of what brings us to be active in the social media. Others seeing this probably don't know why we want to waste their time. For them, this brief intro.

Given what we've endured these past few years, it's not excessive sensitivity that brings us to share that the US @StateDept has treated us since March 2017 with incredible disdain. That month, @TheJusticeDept charged the woman in the poster below. She's our daughter's killer. 2⃣

There's a reason Americans don't know about this stunning case. The same reason @CNN, @NYTimes, @60Minutes and the rest of the mainstream US media don't expose it. @TheJusticeDept want this admitted bomber tried in Washington on US federal terror charges. Jordan prevents it. It's 2017. The US invokes 1995 Jordan/US extradition treaty, requiring Jordan to hand @Sbarro bomber #AhlamTamimi over to face terror charges in DC. Jordan refuses and keeps her safe and free. @StateDept whispers that the treaty is valid. @POTUS insists Jordan's a dear friend.

To our friends in the @TheDemocrats:
The extradition of @Sbarro monster, @FBIMostWanted fugitive #AhlamTamimi, has been blocked for years by Jordan. It obscenely opposes US efforts to prosecute her and says the 1995 extradition treaty obliging them to hand her over is invalid.
/2 But it is valid. #Tamimi doesn't deny her key role in the murder of our daughter Malki, 15. Since 2012, my wife and I have pressed the relevant parties to end this charade and get the fugitive into @FBI custody. That we haven't succeeded isn't for lack of trying.

Five years ago today, a Jordanian court rejected a US request for the extradition to Washington of confessed bomber #AhlamTamimi, whose victims included US nationals. The 1995 extradition treaty was invalid, it ruled, since Jordan had not complied with its own laws in signing it. Image 2/
In reality, Jordan has extradition treaties with multiple countries that it respects. As for the US treaty, it respected that too between 1995 and 2017. The legal "flaw" could have been easily fixed and still can. Jordan's leaders clearly prefer it to be thought of as broken. Image

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

The Sep'19 tweet below was just RTed by someone. I'm the father of a child murdered by this famed Jordanian terrorist. Every time I or friends reach out to Jordanian officials, they stay silent. The strategy makes sense for them since the news industry pays no attention.
/2 That's a shabby thing. On one hand, for the US she's one of only two women on the @FBIMostWanted terrorist list with a $5M reward on her head since 2018. On the other, Jordan shelters her, lets her live a free, unrestricted life in its capital. She's never been in hiding.

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.

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
/2 2/
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!
