Israel’s army arrested a Palestinian teenager Tuesday after a video went viral of her slapping Israeli soldiers in the occupied West Bank as they remained impassive. The video shot Friday, apparently with a mobile telephone, showed two Palestinian teenage girls approaching two Israeli soldiers, before shoving, kicking and slapping them while filming on mobile phones. Early Tuesday, the Israeli army raided Tamimi’s house and arrested her, her father Bassem said, accusing the army of seizing telephones, computers and other electronic equipment. Another of her facing up to Israeli soldiers as a child was widely publicised years before. “The (Israeli army) is the most humane army and holds values that don’t exist anywhere else,” Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Tuesday.
