It has been a long time since we last wrote about Ahed Tamimi or her father, Bassem Tamimi, not to mention cousin Janna Jihad Tamimi.There was a time when the Tamimi clan was featured here frequently because they were promoted by the media, including the NY Times, for their ‘peaceful’ resistance to Israel in the town of Nabi Saleh. Their most aggressive promoter was Ithaca, NY, anti-Israel Activist Ariel Gold, formerly of the non-Jewish anti-Zionist Jewish Voice for Peace.In reality, the clan was drenched in terrorism and blood. The mastermind of the Sbarro Massacre was a Tamimi clan member, Ahlam Tamimi, who has been indicted by the U.S. because Americans were killed in the bombing, but Jordan refuses extradition.Ahlan married another Tamimi clan member and terrorist murderer of an Israeli, in a wedding in Jordan at which Ahed was featured.
The Tamimi Clan of Nabi Saleh and their Western supporters exploit children in order to obtain viral video and photographs.The children are used to try to provoke Israeli Border Police and soldiers. If the provocation is successful, which it almost never is, they get a photo of an Israeli being brutal towards a child. In almost every case, though, there is no reaction from the soldiers, so the video and photos are spun as reflecting “brave” Palestinian children and the “weak” Israeli soldiers.The Tamimis are experts at manipulating images and press coverage of these child demonstrators.The leading proponent of this tactic is Bassem Tamimi and others in the Tamimi media operation. For extensive documentations, including social media, videos and images, see our posts, Bassem Tamimi and the Use of Children as Political Props and Palestinian Child Exploitation – 10-year old “Journalist” Janna Jihad.
There was no one more useful to this propaganda effort than (at the time) little Ahed, whose flowing blond hair and ability to scream and raise her fist on cue made her particularly attractive to western liberals. Dave Lange of IsraellyCool nicknamed her “Shirley Temper”:

In her teen years Ahed was lionized by the anti-Israel movement, always showing off her flowing blonde hair.
Years later, when Ahed was arrested for punching and kicking an Israeli policeman, Hamas tweeted its support for Ahed and Code Pink/ArielGold.

Ahed’s star has faded now that she no longer is the cute little kid, but the “temper” is still there. Dave Lange at IsraellyCool reports:
Remember Ahed Tamimi aka Shirley Temper, the slap-happy “darling” of the West (and the woke)?I have not written about her in quite a while, but it should be noted how she has developed quite the following on Instagram- almost 94K followers to be more specific.And this is what she just had to say to them via her Instagram stories:
“What Hitler did to you is a joke [compared to what we’ll do to you], we will slaughter you, drink your blood and eat your skull.”
Hen Mazzig had the full translation (which I have confirmed with two people):
“Come on settlers, we will slaughter you. We are waiting for you in all the cities of the West Bank. What Hitler did to you was a nothing. We will drink your blood and eat your skulls. We are waiting for you.”
Shirly Temper indeed. The “peace” schtick always was a fraud.
