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.
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 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 🤦
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!
Actually, I’m not.
So you’re either a child, are supported by somebody else, or committing fraud.
Whatever the answer is, I doubt many will care about your opinion.
Lol, you don’t get to choose to not pay taxes. You either own nothing and are unemployed, or you are a child.
Such a hilarious statement to think you can just fight the IRS.

Ok now you’re just being an ass
In a thread defending a country committing genocide, I guess it might be difficult for some people to understand the kind of principles it takes to leave a country that commits war crimes around the world.
But you do you.
Wow, if anyone is a child here it’s you.
You can avoid paying taxes by doing all of your business under the table. This might come as a shock to a child like you, but some people are making enough money and have enough connections to do just that.
What a scummy thing to do, most call it fraud.
I assume in that time you won’t be using roads or any public infrastructure then?
Or else what?
I mean, Israelis are required to join the military.
Are you suggesting that the people of Gaza are complicit in the crimes of Hamas?
Is Hamas “the government”

I honestly didn’t. I was under the impression that Hamas is in control but I didn’t realize they were governing. So they collect taxes and provide public services to the population?

Yes?
Yes, actually.
