Peloni: How is it that this woman has not already been apprehended, tried, convicted and executed for the crimes she committed twenty years ago. The Hashemites have only survived the past decades in power due to US presence and support. Jordan receives the largest aid package in history from the US. And yet we are to believe that the US lacks the leverage to bring this butcheress to justice in an American court?? This is simply not true.

Frimet and Arnold Roth, the parents of Malki Roth, a US citizen who was killed at age 15 in the 2001 Sbarro Pizzeria bombing in Jerusalem, met last month with US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee to deliver a petition urging the extradition of the attack’s orchestrator, Hamas terrorist Ahlam Tamimi, from Jordan.
“This is a matter of justice for the families of murdered Americans,” Arnold Roth told Huckabee during a May 13 meeting at the US Embassy in Jerusalem, according to a statement released by the family on Tuesday.
The Roths presented Huckabee with a petition bearing 30,000 signatures demanding that Washington press Jordan to extradite Tamimi, who was convicted in an Israeli court of playing a central role in the suicide bombing that killed 16 people, including seven children and a pregnant woman, and injured 130.
Tamimi found shelter in Jordan after being released from prison in a 2011 deal in which Israel freed 1,027 terrorists in exchange for captured IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.
There she has lived freely, holding citizenship, hosting a TV program, giving lectures and making numerous public appearances extolling the bombing.
“What brought us to the embassy was remembrance, but also justice,” Arnold Roth said at the meeting with Huckabee. “Justice in the Tamimi prosecution has been thwarted for years and barely mentioned publicly by the very US officials who bear the responsibility of bringing the fugitive to trial.”
“We came to implore the government represented by Ambassador Huckabee to carry out its duty to protect and stand for American victims of terrorism abroad.”
The petition was submitted for delivery to US President Donald Trump, US Attorney General Pam Bondi, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. It urges Jordan to honor its 1995 extradition treaty with the US, according to the family’s statement.
When are we going to start executing terrorists?
“But the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces’ decision does not finalize a pending execution, and Hasan’s case is far from over. Ten years have passed since Hasan pleaded guilty at his court martial in 2013 to the killings. But Eugene Fidell, a visiting lecturer at Yale Law School, said it takes time for a capital case to make its way through the courts due to the “meticulous” nature of the U.S. legal system, even the military justice system.”

Liberals say the death penalty isn’t a deterrent. Umm, how do they know? Has it been applied?
Will the D.C. shooter be convicted of “workplace violence” too? Will he be executed? It’s like a video game to people like this. Nothing really ever happens to them so what have they to fear?
If this creature is extradited, what then? Will she sit in an American prison like Mumia Abu-Jamal and be consulted like a guru by the left?

Personally, I’d rather see targeted assassinations over there with no fanfare and preferably plausible deniability.
That’s a positive aspect of the war going on this long. If the terrorists are arrested, you know they will be released. Every day the IDF is eliminating more Oct. 7 terrorists. So good of them to film themselves in the act. so their identities are known. I’m guessing they didn’t wear masks. Granted interogation is useful but eliminating them is essential. to stop this from recurring and the courts will get in the way once they are captured. There’s also a little thing called justice.
@Sebastien
I 100% agree. Excellently stated.
