Many of us know this brave young woman well...
Ahed Tamimi, 16 years old and a prominent activist in the occupied Palestinian village of Nabi Saleh, whose courage along with that of her family in standing up to armed Israeli soldiers, land confiscation and settlement construction stealing the resources and even the well of their village has become world-renowned, was seized by occupation soldiers who invaded the Tamimi family home on the morning of 19 December 2017.
Ahed’s father, Bassem, posted on Facebook that Ahed was targeted for arrest after she was attacked by Israeli media after she protested occupation soldiers in Nabi Saleh who shot a 14-year-old boy in the head with a rubber-coated metal bullet; the boy, Mohammed Tamimi, is in a medically-induced coma. Tamimi reported that the soldiers violently invaded the home, hitting Ahed’s mother, Nariman Tamimi, and siblings, and confiscating phones, cameras, laptop and other electronics. Ahed was taken away by the occupation soldiers to an unknown location.
You may remember her rescuing her brother (who had a broken arm) from the IOF.
Here is the video I was looking for but couldn't find when I made my vlog. It is the Mother of Ahed Tamimi being arrested a couple of years ago, while Ahed tries to save her Mother from the IOF. Heartbreaking scenes of Ahed running after the army vehicle which is carrying away Nariman Tamimi.

Also, Miko Peled, Israeli General's Son, is speaking out very boldly against these actions by the IOF
Always remember, silence is consent.
