Other than you, who confirmed she was raped?
No idea if she even survived to tell her tale or not, or who her name war, etc…so it’s an assumption on my part.

Guess she lived through it.
1729309133388.jpegMillions recoiled in horror after vile footage filmed by Hamas showed innocent Naama Levy, 19, being pulled by her hair by militants after she was kidnapped from her kibbutz.

For almost eight months she has been kept in unknown conditions by Palestinian gunmen, as reports emerged of fellow hostages being subjected to depraved sexual abuse and torture.
….I’m thinking back to the GoPro link where the Hamas hero was manhandling the woman in the sweatpants and stuffing her in the back of a jeep, and she was bleeding through the sweats front and back, etc… but maybe that’s just a coincidence of that time of month and haemorrhoids and stress and so on and so forth or something.
There was no rape.
Ok, well that settles that then….or…
Several victims of sexual violence from October 7 and captivity in Gaza have come forward, while testimonies by October 7 survivors and released hostages' reported witnessing both female and male hostagessubjected to sexual violence, but they’re probably Jews & Zionist JKK so they’re not really people, or whatever.

I guess she survived. I’m assuming it’s her word against yours but hers might not count ‘cuz propaganda, etc…or not.

The attacks by Hamas on Israeli communities, in which 1,139 people were killed and 240 hostages were kidnapped to the Gaza Strip, reportedly involved widespread sexual violence. In a review of evidence mainly provided by the Israel Defense Forces and Israeli officials, NBC News stated that the evidence "suggests that dozens of Israeli women were raped or sexually abused or mutilated". Hamas fighters infiltrated Israeli towns, where witnesses said they tortured, raped and sexually assaulted many women and girls of all ages, and some men.

Ina Kubbe, a scholar specializing in gender and conflict at Tel Aviv University, said that evidence aligns with sexual violence. However, she emphasized the necessity of a forensic investigation for an official determination of rape.

Following the attacks, Israeli police, Shin Betand Israeli military began to collect evidence, take witness statements and to interrogate captured Hamas militants concerning the alleged sexual violence perpetrated during the 7 October attack. Police recorded the difficulty in collecting physical evidence in a war zone, due to this the full extent of the crimes may never be known. Authorities retrieved video evidence, photographs of victims' bodies, and militants' testimonies which they said confirmed accounts of sexual assault. Autopsies of victims also corroborated these accounts, according to the Israeli police.

Survivors, victims, witnesses, first responders, and military personnel provided accounts of the alleged rape, mutilation and other sexual violence that Hamas militants inflicted. An official from Lahav 433 told the Knesset that 1,500 testimonies had been collected. Shelly Harush, the police officer leading the investigation recounted to The Times on 2 December 2023: "It's clear now that sexual crimes were part of the planning and the purpose was to terrify and humiliate people."

So it’s their word against whatever, so all of the above never happened then potentially.

Experts such as one that Vox interviewed, say that sexual violence is an "inherent, if under-examined, aspect of violent conflict". Hamas admitted "mistakes were made" on 7 October, but denied that its fighters committed rape and sexual assault, noting that it is forbidden in Islam, so case closed, etc…

I know more that I planned on, so let’s just say the jury is still out on this.

In February 2024, ARCCI, the Association of Rape Crisis Centers of Israel, published a report summarizing witness testimony and categorizing the alleged sexual violence of 7 October into "Practices of Rape During Wars" and "Sadistic Practices". Throughout the report ARCCI repeats conclusions that the alleged sexual violence was systematic, deliberate, widespread, and not spontaneous or incidental, and "Hamas terrorists employed sadistic practices aimed at intensifying the degree of humiliation and terror inherent in sexual violence"….so maybe?

In February 2024, the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel (ARCCI) published its survey of the of sexual violence carried out during the attack. The 35-page report, based in part on statements from ZAKAmembers, suggested that the attacks were more widespread than initially believed, occurring at various locations across southern Israel and in captivity in Gaza. It reported that in some instances, rapes were carried out in the presence of an audience, including partners, family, or friends, with the apparent intention of increasing pain, humiliation and trauma. It concluded there was evidence for a "systematic, targeted sexual abuse" of women during the Hamas-led assault on southern Israel on 7 October, that ignited the war in Gaza, but JKK & Zionists so…?
Other than you, who confirmed she was raped?
Im not confirming anything, but I am assuming & I know the ass/u/me rule.
There was no rape.
OK. You must have access to more information on this that I’m willing to google further on. I’m out on this one, as it’s a bit of a downer for a Friday night, so I’ll concede to your sources in this instance here. What are they though?

In the magic google I have, it's the spells I cast that conjure countering info.

Try spells like investigations into:"__" have concluded.

Oddly... things change over time and get sorted out.

There is more on ZAKA claims months later. Did you not read it the first time it was posted?

If you're truly curious, Bituah Leumi website lists everyone who died and how they died but..it doesn't distinguish whether killed by terrorists or by the IDF who did shell Kibbutzes with tanks and rockets or killed at Supernova where attendees said the IDF fired at the party goers as they fled as well as killing both the militants and their captives.

Use your magic google. It's all there and from Israeli sources.


BTW. Beheaded baby has false, pregnant woman gutted was false, holocaust survivor woman story false, the eight children was IDF tank rounds and on and on.

TikToker rips down Greek flags thinking they were Israel’s
'I think this is the first time I’ve ever experienced secondhand embarrassment'

An oblivious anti-Israel TikToker filmed herself as she tore down blue-and-white flags outside a New Jersey restaurant.


While the act itself isn’t funny at all, the joke was on her because what she thought were Israeli flags were actually Greek flags.

“The time I mistakenly thought the flag for (Greece) was for Israel and took the restaurant’s flag down OMG,” the woman, who goes by Ambamelia on the social media platform, titled her video, which has more than four million views.

“Look at that s***,” she says in the footage as she uses one of the eatery’s patio chairs to rip down a string of Greek flags hanging outside Efi’s Gyro in Montclair, N.J.

“Free Palestine, bitch!” the TikToker says, before turning to a baffled employee inside the establishment and asking, “What you looking at?”

“You know there’s a genocide,” she barks at the woman behind the counter.

“I don’t stand for Zionism in Montclair!” she adds while holding up the torn-down flags.

She continues to tear down flags, questioning to herself aloud, “What are they going to do? They can’t do nothing.”



Two confused workers eventually come out to confront the woman, pointing out that the flags she so proudly yanked down are for Greece.

“What? Really? Oh, I thought it was Israel — my bad,” she says without apologizing.

“Oh s*** … it looked like Israel.”

Commenters were mostly in disbelief that she not only shared the “embarrassing” video but that it is still up for viewing.


“Why did you post this?!!” one person asked incredulously.

A second user joked: “You could NEVERRRR waterboard this information out of me.”

Another noted: “Don’t even know who you’re fighting for.”

A fourth person wrote, “I think this is the first time I’ve ever experienced secondhand embarrassment.”



The restaurant’s owner, Efi Mihalis, denied that it was a prank, insisting to the New York Post that it was “not a skit as some people believe.”

She continued: “This was not planned nor was it calculated in any way,” adding her staff were “taken aback” when it happened.

“The young woman destroyed my property.”

Feds won't commit to cutting alleged Nazi collaborators' names from Victims of Communism memorial
Heritage Minister Pascale St-Onge’s office said a review of the memorial is 'ongoing'

Author of the article:David Pugliese • Ottawa Citizen
Published Oct 18, 2024 • Last updated 1 day ago • 4 minute read

The federal government has not confirmed when the Memorial to the Victims of Communism will open, as it reviews whether the names of alleged Nazi collaborators should remain on the monument.
The federal government has not confirmed when the Memorial to the Victims of Communism will open, as it reviews whether the names of alleged Nazi collaborators should remain on the monument.
The Liberal government won’t make a firm commitment to keep the names of alleged Nazi collaborators and fascists off the Victims of Communism memorial to be unveiled in downtown Ottawa.


But Heritage Minister Pascale St-Onge’s office told the Ottawa Citizen that it will make sure the memorial’s commemorative elements will remain compatible with Canadian values.

The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center, a holocaust education organization, wrote St-Onge on Oct. 10 to request the federal government make a firm and public commitment that the names of more than 300 individuals with suspected ties to the Nazis or fascist groups aren’t put on the memorial. The organization has yet to receive a response.

The memorial, which is located near the corner of Wellington and Bay streets, is supposed to honour those who suffered under communism.

But concerns have been raised over the years by Jewish organizations and historians that names of eastern Europeans who collaborated with the Nazis in the Holocaust have been put forward in an attempt to whitewash their past.


On Oct. 7, the Ottawa Citizen revealed that a report prepared for the Department of Canadian Heritage recommended more than half of the 550 names planned to go on the Memorial to the Victims of Communism should be removed. That is because of potential links to the Nazis, questions about affiliations with fascist groups or a lack of information about what the individuals did during the Second World War. A number of the entries should be removed because they had no direct link to Canada, the report noted. As originally planned, there were to be 553 entries on the memorial’s Wall of Remembrance.

The department had already determined that 50 to 60 of the names or organizations were likely directly linked to the Nazis, according to the documents obtained by the Ottawa Citizen through an access to information request.


The letter to St-Onge from the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center warned that honouring Nazis and collaborators in a public memorial in the nation’s capital “grossly undermines our collective memory of the Holocaust by recasting the perpetrators of genocide into heroic roles” and “is an affront to all Canadians of good conscience.”

Asked about the letter and whether St-Onge will follow through with the request to keep the Nazi names off the memorial, the minister’s office responded with this statement: ‘’The review of the commemorative elements is ongoing. We are still thoroughly reviewing the commemorative elements to ensure all aspects of the memorial remain compatible with Canadian values on democracy and human rights.‘’


Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center official Jaime Kirzner-Roberts noted that her organization has been warning for years about problems with the memorial.

In 2021, the organization revealed that Roman Shukhevych, a Ukrainian nationalist who collaborated with the Nazis and was linked to the massacres of Jews and Poles, was one of those being commemorated. After the group repeatedly raised the matter with the department, Shukhevych’s name was removed.

Kirzner-Roberts, who examined the Heritage Canada report which recommended excluding the names from the monument, said the document raises more concerns.

“After years of raising concerns with Canadian Heritage about the potential Nazi affiliations of those commemorated by the new memorial, this report calling for the removal of 332 names is the wake-up call our government desperately needs,” she said.


The memorial was supposed to be unveiled in November 2023 but that was put on hold after members of Parliament honoured Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian man who turned out to have been in the Waffen-SS Galicia Division during the Second World War. That unit was voluntary and under the command of the Nazis. The incident became an international embarrassment for Canada.

Canadian Heritage spokesperson Caroline Czajkowski told the Ottawa Citizen that a new date for the memorial unveiling has not yet been set.

The main spokesperson for Tribute to Liberty, the organization which advocated for the memorial, did not respond to a request for comment.

Federal officials in other departments have continued to warn Canadian Heritage that the inclusion of Nazi collaborators on the memorial will cause international embarrassment.


“It is important to note that many anti-communist and anti-Soviet advocates and fighters were also active Nazi collaborators, who committed documented massacres,” Global Affairs Canada officials warned their counterparts at Canadian Heritage in 2021.

The Memorial to the Victims of Communism has already been the focus of multiple controversies over its exact purpose, location, size and cost over the last 15 years. The price tag for the project has ballooned to an estimated $7.5 million — including $6 million in public funds — from an original budget of $1.5 million that was supposed to be funded entirely through private donations from Tribute to Liberty.

Why are there no bomb shelters in Gaza? How is it that those who planned the raid on Israel, who knew that their attack would almost certainly elicit devastating retaliation, didn’t plan on ways to protect their own citizens?

It’s not for lack of resources. There are miles and miles of bomb proof tunnels all throughout Gaza. Why are these protective bunkers used to hide militants and not protect civilians? In London during the Blitz, Britain did all it could to protect its people. The same goes for Ukrainians today. Why is Hamas failing at the most basic part of government?

The word genocide seems to be on every other sign at protests and is a continual allegation. This is worthy of some critical thought. What’s the difference between deaths caused by collateral damage in war and the intentional destruction of a whole people? Is it possible to engage in war in urban settings and not kill civilians? On this front, other military scholars have done the work and have found that the civilian death toll in Gaza is comparable to conflicts in the past and actually appears to be less severe (if still horrific).

Perhaps the most important question — with the most disturbing implications — is this: does Hamas benefit from the deaths of its own people? From Hamas’s perspective, is all of the international attention on civilian deaths — and the resulting criticism of Israel — one of the goals of the war? What if every death in Gaza — and its amplification in the media in the rest of the world — is a public relations ‘win’ for Hamas?

Collateral damage? You seem confident its not intentional. Why is that?

It's completely intentional—part of the doctrine. Gazans are pawns.
You can't be pimping them as victims if you make them safe.
Itll never be safe until the extremists on both sides are gone. If Ben-Gvir ever got the PM chair, we'd all be on iodine until the radioactive dust settles as Israel becomes Jew only.

'Conquer, Kick Out, Resettle': At the 'Preparing to Resettle Gaza' Conference, Wishful Thinking Made Way to Concrete Plans
At a Sukkot-themed gathering near the Gaza border, settlers and far-right leaders outlined plans to reestablish Jewish settlements in the Strip 'within a year.' Police blocked counterprotesters from entering the event, as speakers called for the 'voluntary transfer' of Gazans and the redrawing of Israel's borders to stretch 'from the Euphrates to the Nile'

Hundreds of people gathered on Israel's southern border for a two-day celebratory conference titled "Preparing to Resettle Gaza" event. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news...m_campaign=daily-brief&utm_content=4621f663bf
