Israeli officials say that everywhere Hamas terrorists struck — the rave, the military bases along the Gaza border and the kibbutzim — they brutalized women.
A two-month investigation by The Times uncovered painful new details, establishing that the attacks against women were not isolated events but part of a broader pattern of gender-based violence on Oct. 7.
Relying on video footage, photographs, GPS data from mobile phones and interviews with more than 150 people, including witnesses, medical personnel, soldiers and rape counselors, The Times identified at least seven locations where Israeli women and girls appear to have been sexually assaulted or mutilated.
Four witnesses described in graphic detail seeing women raped and killed at two different places along Route 232, the same highway where Ms. Abdush’s half-naked body was found sprawled on the road at a third location.
And The Times interviewed several soldiers and volunteer medics who together described finding more than 30 bodies of women and girls in and around the rave site and in two kibbutzim in a similar state as Ms. Abdush’s — legs spread, clothes torn off, signs of abuse in their genital areas.
Many of the accounts are difficult to bear, and the visual evidence is disturbing to see.
The Times viewed photographs of one woman’s corpse that emergency responders discovered in the rubble of a besieged kibbutz with dozens of nails driven into her thighs and groin.
The Times also viewed a video, provided by the Israeli military, showing two dead Israeli soldiers at a base near Gaza who appeared to have been shot directly in their vaginas.
Fuck Hamas.
Fuck Nat Turner too!

Who is that?
Fuck IDF, fuck Israel.
You’re both right, provided that by “Israel”, you mean the fascist government, not the entire population.
By Israel, I mean anyone who doesn’t fight against the apartheid state.
Define “fight against”.
Is criticism and political opposition enough? Or do you expect every Israeli citizen who’s not a fascist themself to take up arms? Something in between?
If you pay taxes to the Israeli government, you’re complicit in the genocide.
If you don’t speak out/protest, you’re complicit.
If you vote for the current government or don’t vote for an alternative, you’re complicit.
Are you suggesting that the people of Gaza are complicit in the crimes of Hamas?
Is Hamas “the government”

Yes?
Yes, actually.
Are the people of Palestine complicit in the actions of Hamas, then?
Are they able to leave and therefore stop supporting Hamas?
The latter two are fair, but fighting fascism by not contributing to ANY part of society, including good ones like their single payer healthcare system, is some Ancap level bullshit 🤦
I mean, Israelis are required to join the military.
Those were my actions against the US government during the Iraq/Afghanistan wars. Seems reasonable to me.
You mean you stopped paying taxes? How did you evade the IRS?
We’re you paying taxes during Trump presidency? You racist!

I think it’s fair to say Israelis bear as much blame as Russians for not fighting back against their government.
Probably even more-so, since Israelis don’t have to fear falling out of a window or wrongful imprisonment.
No, most Israelis are pro-genocide because Zionism is religious nationalism.
Russian civilians weren’t massacred in their own homes. They attacked Ukraine. Hamas are the genocidal ones it is in their manifesto. So no not the same.
