Description

Arnold Roth, father of teenager Malki, murdered in a suicide bombing, calls for extradition from Jordan of the attack’s planner and for the BBC to apologise to its Arabic audience for “toxic distortions” of her characterisation.

This episode also includes our own James Marlow, an eyewitness to the aftermath of this evil act of terrorism in Jerusalem.

Malki Roth, just 15-years old, was one of 15 victims of a suicide bomber at the Sbarro pizza restaurant in Jerusalem, orchestrated by Ahlam Aref Ahmad Al-Tamimi, who drove the bomber to the site.

Tamimi was sentenced to 16 life terms by Israel for her role in the attack, but was one of the prisoners freed in exchange for the release of Gilad Shalit in 2011.

She lives freely in Jordan and openly boasts about how she orchestrated the suicide mission, while at the same time presenting herself as a victim.

Arnold Roth is Malki’s father. In this frank interview, he bears his inner turmoil to me about the loss of his daughter - but how terrible crimes, injustices and political mistakes can be turned around - and how this moment of opportunity presents men and women of goodwill in Israel, Jordan and the US to use their power to achieve it.
