Pramila Patten’s findings are based on interviews with released hostages, whose testimony suggests abuses are continuing in Gaza.

    So the evidence is a few pictures of half naked women on a Rave and batshit insane statements from Zaka which even they said were not verifiable…

    Even the NYT article put in more effort than this. Another massive nothing burger.

    At least we now 100% know for sure there are no pictures or videos of any rape happening as even the UN said they purely relied on “credible witnesses”… probably Zaka

    Even if they did a whole lotta rape and kidnapping, that doesn’t permit the systemic destruction and displacement and murder of many thousands more.

    If they wanted to maintain any credibility, surgical special ops actions should have been taken to apprehend/kill the perpetrators and rescue what hostages they could.

    Then turn around and use the international community to pressure Hamas into changes.

    But no, they lost their minds and went full genocide.

      Two things can be true. Hamas can be a terrorist organization that murdered innocent civilians AND Israel can be an apartheid state commiting genocide against Palestinians.

      The world sucks.

      No, but it is important to recognize atrocities and not sweep them under the rug or propagandize denials if they actually happened.

      That goes for either side of this conflict.

      Civilian suffering isn’t a team sport.

    Hamas apologists: ‘Ok sure they’re rapists but I still support them because israel bad’.
