Hi,
A satire show in Israel (Eretz Nehederet) had used the term rapesistance to comedly describe what was done to women and men at the Black Sabbath.
The avidence shows there was not only mass massacre, slaughter, and abuse in bodies – but also rape.
The was clear pretty soon that women were abused and raped and still – it the UN women comette about two months to mention and condemn the brutal violence against Israeli women on October 7th.
It is not only the UN that finally put focus on sexual violence during the first day of the war, but all media started reporting it in a big late.
Where have they been all this time? Is it because those are Israeli women? Is it because Hamas‘ “freedom fighter” acts as part of their resistance? Or is it because UN prefers to look on one side only in this war?
Atzva, my wife, said those actions might be the most shocking acts of October 7th. It is another layer of unsafe things that might happen to her, above of all the violence she has observed.
Although the hostage deal and the cease fire were focusing on the women and kids, there are still women held hostage in Gaza strip and kids (such as the kids if Bibes family) as well.
Take Care
