Yeah, so turns out that if you keep oppressing people and murdering their families you start spawning extremists.

Given the context, I don't think it's fair to call Ahed Tamimi an extremist. The IDF just bombed a pediatric cancer ward. This young woman just made an Instagram post.

If a rogue ethno-state kept denying my rights and killing my friends and family, I would also have some terrible things to say about them at the very least.

Yea, not a good idea making those kinds of comments to Israel. Or in general, good way to have every jew in the world immediately lose sympathy for you. Non-jews as well.

"From the river to the sea" has lost them all sympathy they would have been able to gather in Europe.

So if this person is 21 now does that mean they were jailed at age 15?

Maybe it's because I'm super old now but I can't help feeling like if they were born into suburbia in a peaceful country they would be harmlessly edgelording on Rust or something instead of getting beaten up by a military force and receiving national headlines.
