By Jack Khoury Tags: Israel newsIsraeli left-wing activist Tali Fahima has converted to Islam, according to the website of the Islamic Movement in Israel.
Fahima is said to have converted at a mosque in Umm al-Fahm in the presence of sheikhs who tested her knowledge of the principles of Islam. Afterwards, she visited the home of Sheikh Raed Salah and informed him of her conversion.
Fahima was released from prison in 2007 after completing a three-year sentence for passing information to the enemy, having contact with a foreign agent and supporting a terrorist organization.
In May 2004, Fahima entered the Jenin area and meet with operatives of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, the armed wing of the Fatah movement. She met with Zakaria Zubeidi, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade leader in Jenin.
Fahima declared that she would serve as a human shield for Zubeidi, who was wanted by Israeli security forces. She also reportedly had an affair with Zubeidi.

welcome my sister !
She has retruned her face from myths to truth and entered the real way that all chosen ones as Jacob, Josef, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus walked on.
Before Israel, Islam was of little concern to the world!
Seriously, this is not a snipe at Islam but it seems to me that Islam tends to be very conservative on issues of women, gays, economy, religion, etc - why would a progressive who believes in women rights, gay rights, socialistic system, freedom of and from religion, etc choose Islam? :-/ strange to me
Its not about being left wing or something. She aided the Al Aqsa Martyrs, a suicide-bombers factory. She is a total freak to me. Ppl like her should end up in prison for the rest of their lives.
now, I actually have a pity on her: poor lost soul, totally confused and out of her league, manipulated by others. Very sad....
and the Arabs will eventually treat her like a Jew and she will be scorned and driven out of the arab community because there is a difference. Her motivations are misplaced altruism; their's is hatred. She will discover the incompatibility, in time.
take a look at ottomans history, they were also muslim, but they owned a big land of people from each religion and nation and lasted for 600 years. or take a look at the muslim populations marriage statistics that how many of them married someone from an other religion and you can easily understand that muslims are easy going people. but if you ask my opinion about changing a religion, its nonsense to have one as well :)
This is not realy her f. Every thing can be explaind by a deffective wiring of her brain. If someone will take time and the effort to study Islam, one will realize that it is no better or worse then all other religions. The body count from Islamic terrorists in all history of this religion is was and is infinitissimaly smaller than the enlightened Europians or north americans, russians or any other ethnic group.
Several studies show that people who change their religion ( unless it is for marriage or immigration purpose) do it for hatred of their parents due to child abuse.
Maybe she'll put a burka over her head now!
Just a few comments in, and the religious hate statements start pouring in like water. The true face of Israel is exposed.
She should have had a look at what Beverly Giesbrecht, the Canadian liberal journalist, said after she joined the Taliban in Pakistan. "PLEASE HELP ME"
How in Israel, with all it's security sensitivity, gives 3 years to someone who passed classified information to the enemy, contacted a foreign agent, and supported a terrorist organization. That sounds like at least 10-15 years to me.
What a CREEP!!!
Help the Israelis with their hasbara. Good Luck.
If a Moslem converts to an other religion, they become apostates and are subjected to a death sentence Good riddens to this piece of trash.
Good! Lol! The conversion to Islam is the best punishment Tali Fahima could received!
I think to have a religion is the best punishment wheter its jews or muslim, problem is to be human at all which we all have to try !!
Who is next? Eldar? Sarid? Kamm?
at least she is honest
Not at all. This only reveals what we suspected of her all along. She supports the most radical hatred of what used to be her own people.
In their hearts they already did.
Indeed, unknown are the ways of the God ! :-)
I am not sure she is convinced of this conversion. However, I truly respect this militant lady, but I do believe being an anti-zionist and pro-palestinian Jew may bring much fruitful outcomes. Taking examples of enormous pro-palestinian Jews around the glob who unhesitatingly struggle for justice.
Quite ironic that an Israeli Anti-zionist would convert to a religion which is inherently Anti Israel.
This is what most western "left-wing activists" or "peace activists" really stand for: ISLAM.
including Gideon Levy, Amira Hass, Norman Finkrlstein and others.
WELLDONE,TALI FAHIMA!WELLCOME TO THE TRUE RELIGION!PARADISE WILL BE YOUR LAST DESTINATION!THE REST OF THE JEW NATION FOLLOW HER AND BE WINNERS IN THIS WORLD AND IN THE HEREAFTER! SELAM,SHALOOM THE TRUE FOLLOWERS OF MOSES(peace be upon him)
This explains everything. good ridden!
trading a set of dogmas, for another set of dogmas...gee! , she really must have made a profound intellectual research to get to this conclusion. "man will be free when the last king has been strangled by the entrails of the last priest." Signed: Voltaire. i still love my jewish tradition, and my people but dogmas has been set aside. This, in no way stops me form repsecting any beings to full extend of the word.
to join the club of atheism , you would need to disbelief in God. Although the term God has gotten too generic , that atheist must now define what God if any they disbelieve in. Certainly , for me, I do away with tribal gods, elitist gods, religious gods, dysfunctional jealous homophobic chauvinistic gods to name a few. And this, no matter how fancy the person of the cloth is adressing its flocks. Shalom!
Good riddens...She should take allong all the leftwingers,peacenicks,moslembrownosers,communists,selfhating "jews" and the whole bunch of debris...They are "too good" for Israel...Lety them enjoy the delights of islam and let her have a nice infibulation and be a good moslem woman
In order to carry on your narrative uncritically, you lump everyone on the left with one of your epithets. You alienate all who feel that Israel is fundamental to them but greatly disagree with you as to what its long term survival requires, and you do so when Israel needs all the help it can get. You also give yourself an excuse for not listening. What if you're wrong? Have you become so all knowing so as to elimimnate that possibilty? Israel's roots are in the left, and if it were left to the conservatives and the religious, there would be no State of Israel. In one fell swoop, you disregard your history, your allies, and your ability to respond seriously to difficult and existential problems.
get ready to adorn the Hejab, never answer back to men, bring shame upon your family, and embrace the world's most misogynistic, homophobic religion. You should also renounce your Israeli citizenship, and take up residence in Gaza City.
Or get on male only areas on buses in Jerusalem or walk on the same side walk as men in Jerusalem.....world's most misogynistic, homophobic religion? I take it Judaism is second??
It just shows you with whom the leftist are siding with...the enemy ! Unfortunately I'm beginning to like the religious who are the real defenders of the state of Israel...!
If you continue to view the entire islamic world as 'the enemy', then you are no better than the righteous person you think you are.
the real defenders are not the religious, many religious are just taking advantage of non religious protection and dedication. In the meantime they are learning the bible (which is obviously not useful)
Please read the article before commenting. The enemy is radical Islam and Islamist terrorist organizations, that Tali was associated with.
Mezel ToV Tali( Better Mabuk?) One less self hating Jew
Who cares about her religion? Isn't that something that's nobody else's business?
Sir, I salute your impassioned idealism/naivete. This is the Middle East where divides are not linguistic but religious community based. Have you not read about the sunni - shia divide? Or the civil war in Lebanon?
Right wingers hated her before the conversion, right wingers still hate her. So, obviously, her religion has nothing to do with that. Much ado about nothing.
