I bet you those first comments were created in a conference room along with the idea for the order for IDF to stand down when it happened.

Some experts believe this is actually what happened.

"If the only “proof” is pain performed for cameras, then we are watching theater, not testimony."

We have become unwitting players in a Reality TV show run by cosplaying governments. But the suffering is real.

White women being raped or allegedly rapes by black or brown men is definitely used all the time by Western countries. And there’s no doubt Israel lied and lies on absolutely everything. That said, I’m literally looking at the UN website, report from the 11/03/24, 9572ND meeting. And it said there are “reasonable grounds to believe conflict related sexual violence in Israel during 7 October Attacks”. I also saw, in the excellent documentary produced by Al-Jazeera on the 7/10, an interview of a representative of an organisation focused on sexual violence during war, if I remember well. She said that, yes, they didn’t have proofs, but that not a single conflict had happened without rapes and sexual violence. That simply never happens. I hardly believe Hamas fighters are better than men all around the world. So yes, I’m sure rapes and sexual violence happened, but definitely not on the scale that Israel would like us to believe. And anyway, it will never justify a genocide.

I am not sure if you read my full article. I literally address the UN directly and what their report actually says. "Reasonable grounds" is not evidence, names, details. And then it turned out that many of the cases they reviewed were ones that were later debunked publicly. Lastly, the UN was only allowed to see what Israel wanted them to see. They admit they had zero independence

I saw much of the evidence you've presented. Most of it if not all is the ABSOLUTE truth. I knew nothing about Israel or Palestine. I followed the first 1 1/2 yrs daily. I knew quickly who the aggressor was. It is and has always been to save Netanyahus miserable hide. Women and children most victims. If you have seen what I saw there is only one conclusion. Israel and the United States Government complicit in Genocide and by extension us.

The world media and every one who has a voice with a platform is still lying and trying to minimize the damage that the IDF has caused in Gaza by minimizing the number of people that have been killed and minimizing the fact that a Genocide is still happening right now.

Valuable fact finding and insights…. yet, no expression of moral outrage at the killings and kidnappings Hamas DID commit that day leaves a lasting impression that you are as much a Hamas apologist as you are a righteous warrior for truth in journalism.

For two reasons - my article was not about this. Secondly, I do not actually know how many people Hamas killed on October 7th. And how many Israel slaughtered. My educated guess is that Israel killed at least 400 of their own people. I denounce that. And I denounce the killing of anyone by Hamas that did not meet the Islamic standard of who can be killed in battle.
