Dear fellow signatories,

We passed the 5,000 signatures mark earlier this week and the momentum is strong. Given what our goals are, your role in this is admirable and greatly appreciated.

We're hoping for many more. So if you're a member of a synagogue, a temple, a church congregation, a cultural or sporting or student group... please let the members of your group know that if they give us their support by signing the petition, we're closer to having media-worthy impact. Please circulate the online address: www.change.org/ExtraditeTamimi 

We're just two weeks away now from August 9, the anniversary of the bombing attack on the Sbarro pizzeria in Jerusalem. Each year, Ahlam Tamimi whose extradition we aim to achieve, goes public via terror-inciting messages in the social media as well as op eds in the print media in her home country, Jordan. I can't emphasize enough - because it's both little known and quite incredible - that she is a hero there. Far too few Americans know that. 

My wife Frimet and I hope that something we have written, reflecting our ideas about the supreme importance of justice, will be published in major US media to coincide with the anniversary. That's one of the key ways we can create awareness and get support for what we hope the US government will do.

I want to end with this request. I have been invited these past few weeks to speak in various communities across the US via ZOOM under the headline "Bringing my Child's Killer to Justice". It's an unparalleled way to inform people about our pursuit of justice and to address questions. If your community anywhere is open to me speaking (a one-hour time slot at any time that suits you), please be in touch. My email address is thisongoingwar@gmail.com

Good wishes
Arnold Roth
Jerusalem
