As is by now abundantly clear from the pro-Hamas rallies we have seen all over, the left loves jihadis, and this love is longstanding. Today’s global crisis, however, is bringing a new clarity to what exactly the left has been supporting, and it isn’t really “diversity” and “inclusion,” much less “tolerance” or “peace.” Vogue cover model Ahed Tamimi is a chilling case in point.
Back in October 2018, Vogue Arabia, the Dubai-based Arab edition of the venerable fashion magazine, published a piece ostensibly written by Ahed Tamimi, a Palestinian teenager who was seventeen years old at the time: “Occupied Childhood: Ahed Tamimi Pens a Heartfelt Letter About Life in and After Prison.” The editor’s note was worshipful: “In a heartfelt letter, 17-year-old Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi tells the story of her arrest and eight months in an Israeli prison – and the struggles she faces as a symbol of resistance.”
Tamimi herself, or her ghostwriter, sounded a plaintive note about how wonderful her life would be if it weren’t for those terrible Israelis: “I want to be a regular 17-year-old. I like clothes, I like makeup.” Accompanying the article is a stylishly black-and-white glamor shot of Tamimi, her hair blowing in the wind; she is a bit too chunky to be a classic model, but hey, these are the days of “body positivity.” The poor victim continued, “I get up in the morning, check my Instagram, have breakfast, and walk in the hills around the village. Sometimes I go to Ramallah with friends to go bowling, eat ice cream, and go to restaurants – but I am not a normal teenager. Both my parents have been in jail, as have I, and now my eldest brother, Waed, is imprisoned too.”
Tamimi doesn’t mention it, but her father was convicted in 2012 of exhorting young people to throw stones at Israeli troops. Her brother was convicted in August 2018, two months before his sister became a Vogue heroine, of actually throwing stones at Israeli troops. Ahed doesn’t mention the most famous member of her family, her aunt Ahlam Tamimi, who helped murder sixteen Israeli civilians at the Sbarro pizza parlor in Jerusalem on Aug. 9, 2001. Ahlam received multiple life sentences from an Israeli court for her role in that massacre, but was freed in 2011 as part of the prisoner exchange for an Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. She then went to Jordan, where she became a media personality and a national hero. Jordan has refused all extradition requests from the United States, where she is on the FBI Most Wanted list because Americans were among those killed in her attack.
In Vogue, however, Ahed Tamimi did her best to portray herself as just a regular teenage girl, albeit one who happened to be the victim of a cruel military machine: “If I were permitted to be a regular teenager living in a normal country, I would play sports. I wanted to become a football player but I don’t play here because there is no time. Instead, I have been involved in demonstrations and confrontations with the Israeli army since I was a child. Many criticize that, but why not criticize the army who places itself in front of children? Under the occupation, everything is a crime. People should not accuse us; it is the occupation that is wrong.”
There isn’t actually any occupation, but Ahed Tamimi’s ardor for the cause remains undimmed. Five years after her Vogue glamor shot, she published this message in Hebrew and Arabic on her Instagram page: “Our message to the settlers: (We) are waiting for you in all the cities of the West Bank, from Hebron to Jenin. We will slaughter you and you will say that what Hitler did to you was a joke. We will drink your blood and eat your skull. Come on, we’re waiting for you.”
This is the kind of person the left celebrates, and why not? Lenin said it: “You have to break eggs in order to make an omelet,” and Islamic jihadis in Gaza and all over the world couldn’t agree more. It is now undeniable that the left is not, contrary to its own claims, the party of love, tolerance, inclusion, and all that, but of drinking blood and eating skulls. The question is not why Vogue Arabia ever featured a bloodthirsty savage such as Ahed Tamimi, but why the other editions of Vogue haven’t lionized her as well. They’ll get around to it in due time.
STJOHNOFGRAFTON says
Well that’s Vogue. Not even fit for bog roll.
Michael says
All,
Ephesians 6:12.
VOWG says
People who hate Jews are quite insane. The irrational hatred is like nothing else on the planet. What makes them insane, Satan , drugs, their upbringing, what?
I am an old man and have seen this evil all my life, from the newsreels showing the bodies of Jews being bulldozed into trenches at concentration camps, to the current barbaric Islamic evil with hamas and the Arab islamic countries surrounding Israel. It has to stop no matter what the cost, it has to stop.
Elisa says
Evil comes from Satan who will do anything to destroy God’s original order & creation! Only Love, Goodness, & Caring can thwart his plans! Therefore don’t allow any of it into your lives & the lives of those you love ❤️! Love can & does change all things in one’s heart and life.
LuzMaria Rodriguez says
It should be stopped NOW with the extermination of the subhumans who performed the butchery on October 7 and whose supporters celebrated in the streets of Gaza. It was stunning to see so many old, young, male, female jumping up and down with glee and bellowing support for the killings. Remove them all from the planet if peace is desired. If allowing their killing to continue is the goal, then let them live. They cannot stop; killing and butchery is in the subspecies’ dna.
ROY TREPANIER says
“What makes them insane, Satan , drugs, their upbringing, what”?…You said it, satan. This Islamic hatred of Jews goes back to Isaac and Ishmael, so it’s been going on for a looooong time. And there is NO human solution to a spiritual war. BUT, my Bible (that has never been wrong) says that the Messiah is coming back very, very soon, maybe even this year the way things are looking.
Yeshuah Hamashiach, Jesus the Messiah, is returning to A….fetch His bride…B…..prevent mankind from destroying themselves (nukes)…C…..redeem His Chosen people…D…..bring His long prophesied judgements on this evil, Christ rejecting world.
Maranatha, come Lord Jesus………..
Una Salus says
The drinking skulls “lady” abides in Vogue. Not sure how you do that exactly. I suppose she grinds them up. Not sure if this is some sort of escalation in response to the blood libel spread by these nutcases and they now have to one up their own projections onto other people.
That’s how it is in the land of Vogue nutcases. Every atrocity sets the bar lower for the next group.
Anne-Marie says
Interesting how tw*ts like her don’t get cancelled for spewing such vitriol and moronic statement.
Nancy says
“Hate speech” is only what the left doesn’t want to hear.
Una Salus says
Quite a few heads missing aren’t there? Strange that. These animals have gone back to their bloody roots in a way tribes from Borneo would understand.
LuzMaria Rodriguez says
It is stunning, for sure. And it should be an awakening across the globe.
Una Salus says
I would rather not talk about this stuff but there it is I suspect.
joe says
What did she say? she’ll drink our blood and eat our shit. did I head that right?
Jeff Bargholz says
She can eat my shit, that’s fine. It would save me from flushing. And maybe she could lick me instead of toilet paper.
Michael says
Who does this white settler think she is? The Tamimi clan are from Nejd, Saudi Arabia.
Algorithmic Analyst says
The terrorists are reverting to the level of Cannibals.
Steve says
So are their oh-so-chic Western supporters. Anyone you see in a keffiyeh is likely a supporter of a second Holocaust, and worst, espouses such vile hatred mostly because it’s fashionable and “daring”.
Una Salus says
they’re so edgy all they see are little oppressed ethnic people. there are many people like this unfortunately.
Atikva says
If by ‘Oppressed ethnic people” you mean ‘the palestinians’:
(1) there is no such thing as ‘the palestinian people’ for the very good reason that there never were any Palestine country. As the Google book link below clearly shows, there is no trace in all the world written documents of a palestinian people until 1967, when the KGB invented it:
https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Palestinian+people%2C+Palestinian+state&year_start=1800&year_end=2013&corpus=15&smoothing=3&share=
And if there ever was a ‘Palestine country’, you’d be able to answer immediately the following questions:
Who funded Palestine and when?
What was its capital and main cities?
What were its borders?
What was its official language?
What was its religion?
What type of economy did it choose?
What was its currency?
What form of government did it have?
Who were its most famous chiefs of State?
(2) As to the oppression of this non-existent people, it is so ridiculous that I will mention only one fact: the Arabs have elected their representatives at the Knesset (the Israeli Parliament) since 1949. And out of the 10 current members, 2 of them are women.
Aebe says
Leaves you to wonder what they do with the parts of butchered babies they do not sell.
Michael says
A.A.,
It’s possible THX is a shape shifter, and potentially assuming commentator names and identities. If so, he/she is definitely disturbed.
Lightbringer says
Some ISIS puke, I believe, filmed himself killing a Westerner and eating his heart. Disgusting. I never saw the video but read about it; it was some years back.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Thanks Lightbringer! Their cannibalistic behavior is similar to that of primitive wild tribes in Africa during the 1800s and earlier, that I have been reading about.They have some kind of weird obsession with eating the body parts of their victims and similar craziness.
Aebe says
The communist Mau Maus in the 1960’s.
Jeff Bargholz says
They were very bad. My mother still has disturbing thoughts about a movie made about the Mau Mau rebellion.
Jeff Bargholz says
I think the terrorists are different. I think they do their cannibalism as mockery, as an insult.
Who knows what motivated those Africans other r than “The Heart of Darkness.”
Noah Andeark says
I would hope there would be video of her being gang thanked by dozens of hamas members. She should be thanked repeatedly, for hours and hours on end. Thanked everywhere she could possibly be thanked. THey can take turns thanking her over and over again. And when she screams to stop thanking her, thank her some more.
Hey Ahed!! THANK YOU!!!
Steve Chavez says
The World is Choosing Sides: Good vs. Evil.
From Democrats to university students and administrators. LET THEM TAKE OFF THEIR MASKS.
ARE ANY OF THEM SENDING “MATERIAL SUPPORT” TO A FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION? Any $$$ to an aid group that is actually a front of Hamas or Hezbollah or will eventually be in their hands, directly or indirectly?
“NOT IN OUR NAME” is led by The Revolutionary Communist Party. They were the INSURRECTIONISTS who took over a House building. Arrests were made but all of a sudden, silence as in no court proceedings in Primetime or anytime!
The Democrats are divided…. even Hillary’s support for Israelis is very suspicious. She only thinks of votes and if FJB croaks or the DOJ actually does their job, she is eagerly waiting in the wings. She knows that no matter who she supports, every Democrat, Communist, Jihadi, will still vote for her. She needs the Jewish support.
THIS GOES FOR ALL SUDDEN SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL! THEY ARE THE EVIL ONES FINALLY TAKING OFF THEIR MASKS! (Caps is me shouting!)
Sword of the Spirit says
There’s no occupation. God gave the land to Israel. It will be Israeli land for more than another thousand years.
Steven Brizel says
Tamimii should never have been let out of jail
Una Salus says
Probably they’re doing it to make identification and burial more difficult but there were reports about ISIS at one time.
Atikva says
What the leftist supporters of that fat, hateful model with her kitchen rag around her neck haven’t realized yet is that their beloved pseudo-palestinians would be only too glad to be able to butcher them as they have done on October 7 to their victims – you don’t even need to be Jewish.
LuzMaria Rodriguez says
OMG.
They truly and amazingly are sophomoric, aka, wise fools.
It would be almost comical to witness their awakening a moment before those they scream support for arrived to do them.
Jeff Bargholz says
It would be great I’d they got their paws on her.
SPURWING PLOVER says
A Vampire and Cannibal?! from what asylum did this one escape from? Sone please get a net for this loose nut
Justin Swingle says
we all know that models don’t take IQ test to walk the runway… but what does this woman model???
FARM EQUIPMENT?!?!?
Atikva says
Not a chance, you’ve got to be reasonably intelligent to handle farm equipment.
Jeff Bargholz says
Pig pens, by the look of her. What a skank.
Ruckweiler says
Her words are empty as she, personally, would die screaming at the site of blood and a skull. These lefties are becoming MORE frantically insane as each day passes. As we say in the South, “Y’all come.”
roger standen says
She’s not even an Arab. She’s a descendent of Balkan natives brought as prisoners to the area by the Ottoman Turks.
RS says
The rise of the occult, and demonism. Many times Paul’s letters to the church at Ephesus tells us: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in the high places. ” Ephesians 6;12′
At this late hour on God’s prophetic timeline, it becomes increasingly obvious that the dark minions are in the process of breaking out of fiction that were inhabiting the writers and readers’ psyches. The goblins and gouls we used to imagine are now acting out their parts in society for real..
Beez says
Under 40 today: tattoos, nose piercings, etc. They cultivate a dead appearance – “Goth.” They strive to look ugly.
Ed Snider says
Every time I’m called an Islamophobe. I swell with pride. Is it something to be ashamed of, or proof of good judgment?
Elliott says
What a charming young lady…
bob says
she appears to have inhaled one bon-bon too many
Jeff Bargholz says
She looks like she eats lard like it’s ice cream. What a sow.
Atikva says
Lady? Female, maybe, but lady.. Nah.
Spingehra says
You jews and Muslims are natural enemies like lions and hyenas. You will be killing each other utill the end of time.
Sick of both of you.
Sick of all you religious nut balls. you all claim God is on your side. Go ahead keep killing each other you are to stupid to make any kind of contribution worth a damn anyway.
Vic says
Love it when fools speak.
Whether you believe in God or not He knows you. The longer you ignore or reject Him is that much longer you’ll spend in hell. Your only salvation is Christ.
Jeff Bargholz says
You lick the shit out of dead people’s asses.
The Israelis don’t defend themselves out of religious fervor, they do it out of self preservation and you you know it.
Banastre Tarleton says
Shes the GRETA THUNBERG of Gaza
ed says
‘We Will Drink Your Blood and Eat Your Skull’
They have been doing that for 1400 years
Cheryl Danver says
There has been a very dark and demonic obsession in the past few years with cannibalism and mutilation. It is said that ISIS was consuming human flesh in Iraq as a way to terrorize the populace, and criminal gangs in Mexico and South America are doing similar things.
During the Crusades, Muslims did not eat human flesh – even when they were hungry, yet some Crusaders were eating dead bodies and they were disgusted by this behavior. What has transpired spiritually is making Muslims violate their own religious rules about drinking blood and eating human flesh.
The carnage that is coming as the World explodes is going to be more brutal than anything seen previously. People are absolutely demonic these days. I believe that the movies about a zombie apocalypse were partly prophetic – except it will not be the dead who feed upon the living.
This form of cannibalism is done out of ferocity and hatred, not because people are starving. Isolated cases have occurred in history (i.e. China’s Cultural Revolution) but this behavior is increasing.
I want my country back! says
Ironic that conservatives are often called “Nazis” by left wing zealots, yet it these same virtue signaling fools that condone and rationalize a Nazi’s ideal wet dream, that is the dehumanization and brutal murder of Jews.
Like the German citizens of the Holocaust era, the citizens of Gaza will justly suffer for support of their duly elected Hamas government which has the same sick and twisted ideology of one Adolf Hitler.
Never Again!
Beez says
She seems nice. for a troglodyte. What kind of grunt does she answer to?
SPURWING PLOVER says
So her and her band of Morlocks wants us Eloi to just slay down and surrender
