Palestinian media also noticed (unlike the Dutch ones, only pro-Palestinian and extreme-right blogs reported on it in very different language).
Quote:
The organizers noted a particular likeness to Hannie Schaft, a heroine of the Dutch antifascist resistance. “Both are praised for their courage, and their striking hair. Hannie Schaft, herself a communist, was given the nickname ‘The girl with the red hair.’ Ahed Tamimi is famous for her striking blond curls and her free-spirited behaviour. In Leiden, therefore, Ahed Tamimi’s nameplate is placed in the Hannie Schaftstraat, joined to the nameplate of Hannie Schaft.”

Verzetsvrouw means resistance-woman. Hannie Schaft was a communist btw, so not a hero to those extreme-right blogs either...
