I'm in tears. I cannot believe the horrors these poor women and girls faced. The rage I feel for Hamas and all their supporters is beyond words and comprehension.
I’m Jewish and coming up on 7 years since I was violently assaulted. Very much want to read the article, but not sure if it’s ‘safe’. Is it really graphic?
Yes. It's some of the worst sexual violence I've ever heard of. I read it myself, but if you don't need to, I wouldn't read it. NYTimes readers commented on how horrific it is...and it's just words, no images.
Yesterday I read about the Nanjing Massacre / Rape of Nanjing in 1937. It was horrific, and there were photos. I was sickened. But this article.. this drove me to tears, an absolute breakdown. Avoid at all costs if you aren't able to forget horrific acts easily.
Please do not read it. I've read a lot of horrible accounts of assault, and this was one that reduced me to tears midway through.
In the most simple, non graphic way I can describe what happened (hidden for those who don't want to read it):
This was devastating to read. Sickening. I can’t stop thinking of the girls and women who are still held by Hamas and I keep asking myself what kind of humans are capable of this? Men.
Without much collected physical evidence and relying mostly on eyewitness testimonies, we know exactly what Palestine and the useful idiots in the West are going to say…
I honestly think that they'd still deny it even if it were somehow possible to gather a mountain of physical evidence. They'd claim it was a conspiracy theory, or that the evidence was fabricated, or just blatantly refuse to accept the truth staring them in the face.
But yeah, the strength of eye-witness testimony is especially tenuous in this case. Remember, we're dealing with adherents of a religion that regards the testimony of a woman as half the worth of that of a man, if they regard it at all
The denial is especially galling coming from western MeToo libfems. They don’t care about brutal sexual violence against women, if they have the wrong ethnic identity. It makes all feminists (few people distinguish between libfems and radfems) look stupid, hypocritical and cruel.
I thought that point was interesting. Of course when they are worried identifying bodies and just stopping this, the authorities aren't going to take careful evidence.
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.
It’s not often that I’m so distressed by an article that I have to stop reading it. What I managed to read was horrific, don’t think any other mammal would be so savage to its females. Makes me wonder how their poor wives are treated.
