This is a war about humanity Download YouTube 2023-10-18 (#004) < Previous Next > This video is about humanity and things that need to be said regarding the Paletinian/Israeli conflict: never in the past 70 years have Jews committed any atrocities like those that were committed on 7th October, such as murdering women, children and their entire families with the sanctury of their homes, raping women with their friends cheering them on, burning babies alive, walking into a party an executing its participants. When you stand with Hamas, you stand with those atrocities. It's not about land. It's about humanity. Video Transcription: Coming soon

You should be afraid! Download YouTube 2023-10-21 (#018) < Previous Next > This Malibu Italian begins by saying she has zero agenda, and has friends on both sides of the conflict. She admits to not being very knowledgeable but states some undeniable facts: she has seen no Israeli soldiers pulling girls through the streets by their hair after raping them; no Israeli soldiers spitting on the bodies of young women they've just killed; Jewish people tearing down posters of baby hostages; Jewish people marching in the streets calling for the death of an entire community. Looking in from the outside, this girl says she is terrified, afraid of sending her daughter to school, and not because of Jewish people...She calls on all those ripping down posters and spewing hate to take a good look at theselves and ask themselves why. She believes that freeing the Palestinians doesn't mean torturing the Jewish people. Video Transcription: Coming soon

This is what Hamas's psychological terror looks like! Download YouTube 2023-11-09 (#099) < Previous Next > Gil Dickman, cousin of Carmel Gat who was kidnapped by Hamas and is calling for her release, responds to allegations that Hamas has claimed it will release all of the hostages in exchange for Israel releasing all the Palestinian prisoners and that the Israeli government has refused. Gil believes that is not true because he does not trust Hamas, the terror group that murdered his aunt. He asks Hamas not to spread propaganda and to provide proof that the hostages are alive, after which a dialog can begine. Gil believes that Israelis and Palestinians can live together peacefully despite all that happened, but terrororism must be wiped out and we need to support life and all the hostages should be brought home. Video Transcription: As we know, Hamas has released just a handful of hostages so far. But it has offered to release all of the hostages in exchange for Israel setting free or the militants it has imprisoned. However, the Israeli government has refused that offer. Do you feel that's the right decision? I must tell you, I don't know if it's true. I don't know. I'm not sure it's true. I know that Hamas is spreading propaganda saying that this is what they want. But I don't trust Hamas. I don't trust a terror group that murdered my aunt. I don't trust a terror group that won't even tell us if Komel or Yarden are alive. I can't trust them, and I can't trust what they put out for us. They were actually sending me a message saying this, saying what you said. I can't really believe them until I see with my eyes that Kamel and Yarden are safe. If Hamas can hear me right now, please don't spread propaganda. Just show us and show all the hostages, all the kidnapped that you took, and show the pictures of them, show us that they're alive, then we can talk. I understand. There's so much anger, so much heartache right now for you, your family, for people on both sides. Do you believe that it is possible for Jewish people and Palestinians to coexist peacefully after everything that's happened? I must tell you, I do. I do believe. And Carmel also believes that. She believed that throughout her life. And I think while she's there, she still believes it. We don't believe in blood. We don't believe in revenge. We don't believe in terror. Terror organizations cannot exist, but people and human beings can exist together, and we can live in peace in Israel. And I think all over the world, I think it's possible. And I think the first step towards it is to support life, to bring back life to where they belong. And first of all, babies, women, elderly people, they should be back in their home. Thank you so much for speaking to us today. Really appreciate it. Wish you all the best. Gildigman, cousin of Carmel Gatz, who was kidnapped by Hamas. Thank you. Thank you very much.

Let’s stop pretending it is about Israel Download YouTube 2023-11-01 (#070) < Previous Next > New York City Councilman David Greenfield speaks out about his upset and anger at seeing people tearing down posters of Israeli hostages. On the other hand, he is happy it happened because people who have been claiming "we don't dislike Jews...only the State of Israel" tore down those posters while a resolution was being discussed regarding the murder of 1.1 million human beings, not only Jews, but also political dissidents, Jehovah's witnesses and gays, in Auschwitz. So let's stop pretending this is about Israel because it is, in fact naked, blind Anti-Semitism. People are unfurling the Palestinian flag there and yelling "Hitler didn't finish the job" . These people prefer to celebrate the death of Jews rather than mourn the death of innocent. It's all about Anti-Semitism! Video Transcription: Coming soon

A labyrinth-like tunnel that the Israeli military says is the biggest Hamas tunnel in Gaza Download YouTube 2024-01-11 (266) < Previous Next > CNN’s Will Ripley reports on a labyrinth-like tunnel that the Israeli military says is the biggest Hamas tunnel in Gaza. Video Transcription: Joining us now, the republican governor of New Hampshire, Kristenunu. And we do have something I want to share with you tonight on that a new image of a tunnel tonight. So you're looking at this here and you can see how wide it is. These images come from both the IDF and also Reuters journalists who were there to witness it. The tunnel spans two and a half miles. It reaches more than 160ft underground, and it is equipped with electricity, ventilation and communication systems. It goes incredibly close to the israeli border and can be used for large forces to move. Right. You can see this isn't a narrow thing at all. Its discovery comes as this war is spreading beyond Israel's borders. Another iranian funded militia, the Houthis, today claiming responsibility for an attack on a ship in the Red Sea. The USS Carney, quickly responding to the ship's distress call. But over the past two months, houthi forces have been involved in a number of attacks along the Red Sea. Actual hijacking, drones, missile attacks on commercial ships. And all this is adding up now to a lot of ships rerouting, taking longer to get where they're going to go, skipping the Suez Canal. These attacks are taking a toll on the whole world because 90% of the world's commerce moves by ship, 10% through the Suez Canal every day, never mind things like oil and liquefied natural gas going through that passageway every second. Today, oil and natural gas prices spiking after british petroleum said it would stop all shipments through the Red Sea because of these strikes. And we're going to have much more on these attacks in just a moment. I want to begin, though, with Will Ripley, because he is out front, live in Tel Aviv. And, will, today you were in southern Israel, just a few miles from Gaza. And what did you know, Aaron, we were working most of the day within a stone's throw of the fence that divides Israel and Gaza. And you did not need a map to know when we were getting close to Gaza because there was a massive smoke plume that was rising up from that embattled area. And in fact, every few minutes as we were driving and then even louder on the ground, we heard very loud booms. This was the sound of outgoing israeli artillery landing, theoretically presumably, on the people of Gaza, which makes you wonder what the conditions must be like for them there, both above and even below ground, beneath the bombed out rubble of Gaza. A massive underground labyrinth. Newly released videos from the israeli military claim to show the biggest Hamas tunnel in Gaza, two and a half miles long, up to 164ft deep, with electricity, ventilation and communication systems. The IDF says the tunnel is wide enough for a large vehicle, even a makeshift railroad. CNN cannot independently verify these videos, claiming to show what the IDF calls Hamas's strategic infrastructure, hundreds of terror tunnel shafts throughout the Gaza Strip. The IDF on a mission to locate and destroy dozens of attack tunnel routes. Hamas made the unverified claim of building more than 300 miles of tunnels under Gaza, tunnels for smuggling goods, launching attacks, storing rockets and ammunition. And Israel says Hamas command centers hidden beneath homes under this child's caught, not the baby's caught. You see a tunnel that was used for terror by Hama for three israeli men held hostage in Gaza, a sign of desperation to the end, a white sheet and a plea for help. Scrawled in Hebrew with leftover food, it reads, help. Three hostages. A message either missed or ignored by israeli soldiers who shot them down from a distance, all three shirtless, waving a white cloth. The men holed up in a building in the embattled Shijaya neighborhood of Gaza city. It's not clear if the hostages were abandoned or managed to escape before the fatal confrontation. The IDF admits the killings broke their rules of engagement, adding pressure on israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to secure the release of around 129 remaining hostages amid growing international calls for a ceasefire, a truce Israel says would only strengthen Hamas. As everyday people suffer. On the streets of Gaza, social media images show crowds climbing on aid trucks, a sign of growing desperation amid a mounting humanitarian crisis as the number of dead in Gaza approaches a staggering new milestone of 20,000. That number just gives you chills. And yet that is the reality in Gaza right now. And also the reality. These new serious questions, Aaron, about how the IDF is operating on the ground. The fact that these three israeli hostages came out shirtless, waving a white cloth. Two of them were shot instantly, but yet the third, who went back, sought shelter, then came out again waving a white cloth and was shot and killed before the forces realized that he was, in fact, israeli. You wonder what is happening to the countless civilians who are dying in Gaza, some of them face to face with the israeli forces that are on the ground there. Aaron yes, we do. All right. Thank you very much, will ripley in Tel Aviv. Out front now, Daphne Richmond. Barack she's an expert on Hamas tunnels and the author of Underground Warfare, also an assistant professor at Israel's Reichman University. And I really appreciate your taking the time, professor. So when you look at the passageways of the tunnels now, we're looking at them much wider than the tunnels we've seen before. You can see a lot of people walking through together, as opposed to that very narrow pathway of the other images that we've seen. Even wide enough for vehicles, the IDF says even wide enough for a railroad, electricity, ventilation, communication. All of mean. You spent a decade of your life studying tunnels like this, this entire system. What do you see here? I see a tunnel that looks a whole lot like the tunnels that North Korea has dug into South Korea. This is what I see. I see something of a much higher level of sophistication, which you described. Much wider, more resistant, stronger, dug not just by hand, but actually with the use of some sophisticated civilian boring equipment. So we're talking about tunnel warfare on a different level. And I see also, in addition to the influence of North Korea, kind of like the large tunnel enabling a massive invasion and infiltration into the country. I also see the hand of Iran here, which is a country that has deeply buried facilities. So it is very different from what Hamas has done with its underground tunnel network. But you can see that with Iran's help, Hamas has been able to dig deeper. And, you know, you talk about the equipment, heavy, boring equipment that would have been used. I know the IDF has shown what they say are some images of construction on this tunnel. This tunnel, though, where it's located, we understand, according to the IDF, it ends just about a thousand feet from the israeli border. A specific crossing, actually, the Erez crossing on the northern israeli Gaza border. So when you take into account what the tunnel is, when you talk about possibly being used for a large scale invasion, and where you see it, then, what does that layer of context tell you? So a couple of things. I think you put it very well. It raises a lot of questions. The first thing that I can tell you is, I'm pretty sure that this is not the only tunnel of the like that Hamas has. Not all Hamas tunnels look like this one, but I presume that it has a few, a dozen, I would say, of such kind of like more heavy duty tunnels. And now the next question that comes up is, okay, so what did Hamas really intend to do with this tunnel? Right. It's obviously a very important military asset that was well concealed and came very close to Israel's border. So I see two options. Number one, this is a tunnel that was actually used, or some portion of it, or some variation on this tunnel was used on October 7 itself to enable this massive infiltration of over 3000 Hamas fighters. I mean, these are some of the numbers. We don't know the exact number. We know it's a very high number. And then for them to go on foot into Israel, I would find it very surprising that it didn't use any kind of cross border tunnel. So maybe this was one of those. But I think another order of questioning would come to say, okay, this wasn't used then what was Hamas's plan? Was it to use this tunnel and make it operational? Because it's obviously quasi operational right now and make it usable during the war, during the operation to carry out another massive infiltration, or more kidnappings and more killings. Meaning it's either one of these two options because of exactly what you said, the fact that it's coming so close to Israel's border. I see these two scenarios, and I presume that Israel will uncover in the coming days more such tunnels.

Why Are Feminists Silent on Rape and Murder? Download YouTube 2024-01-18 (272) < Previous Next > Jan 15, 2024 Honestly with Bari Weiss One hundred days ago, the world changed. October 7 has proven to be many things: the opening salvo in a brutal war between Israel and Hamas; an attack that could precipitate a broader, regional war; the beginning of a global, ongoing orgy of antisemitism; a wake-up call regarding the rot inside the West’s once-great sensemaking institutions; a possible realignment of our politics. One of the things it has also been is a test. A moral test that many in the West have failed. That test of moral conscience is a continuing one considering there are still 136 hostages in Gaza. Two of them are babies; close to 20 of them are young women. Across the Western world, these hostages have faded from view. And when it comes to the fate of the many young women abducted by Hamas and taken to Gaza, the silence from some corners has been deafening. Today on Honestly, Bari argues that the groups you would expect to care most about these women and hostages—the celebrity feminists who are always the first to speak up in times of crisis, the prominent women’s organizations who protested loudly when it came to #MeToo, Donald Trump, or Brett Kavanaugh, and the international, supposedly “nonpolitical” human rights organizations—have said and done next to nothing about the murder, kidnap, and rape of Israeli girls. What explains their silence—or worse, their downplaying or denial? When Michelle Obama, Oprah, Malala Yousafzai, Angelina Jolie, Kim Kardashian—and the rest of the civilized world—saw the kidnapping of 276 schoolgirls in Nigeria by Boko Haram in April 2014, within days they took to Twitter and demanded “Bring Back Our Girls.” Why isn’t the world demanding the same now? It’s been one hundred days in captivity: bring back our girls. Video Transcription: I'm Barry Weiss, and this is honestly, today's episode is an important one, but it may be a little hard to listen to. It also includes descriptions of graphic sexual violence. So don't listen to this one with kids in the room. I want to tell you about a group of girls who were kidnapped by terrorists thousands of miles away. The girls were teenagers, and they were taken, grabbed and thrown into trucks by a murderous gang, abducted from their families, and dragged into remote hideouts. These terrorists, driven by an extreme islamist ideology, were opposed to the civilization that these girls believed was their birthright. The right to be educated, the right to be independent, the right to chart their own destinies. And so they kidnapped them. When the world heard the news of this faraway story, people were outraged and empathetic. The first lady of the United States saw it on the news. Those could be my daughters, she thought. And compelled by what I imagine was a combination of maternal instinct and a sense of duty to speak out against evil. She took to Twitter and demanded, bring back our girls. Within days, women around the world, leaders in Washington and celebrities in Hollywood followed suit. They knew that they had an audience, they knew that they had platforms, and they wanted to do everything they could to call attention to this atrocity. What I'm describing was the righteous outrage in the west in response to the kidnapping and sexual slavery of 276 schoolgirls in Nigeria when they were kidnapped by the islamist militant organization Boko Haram. In April 2014. Michelle Obama, Oprah Malala Yusufzai, Alicia Keys, Angelina Jolie, Kim Kardashian, and the rest of the civilized world saw a story of good versus evil. And so they spoke out about it. The situation could not have been clearer, nor could the moral imperative for those with power to do something about it. And power they had. President Obama wound up deploying american troops to assist in the search for the schoolgirls in Nigeria. Nearly ten years later, on October 7, 2023, terrorists driven by an extremist islamist ideology, kidnapped another group of teenage girls thousands of miles away. These men brutalized and abducted the girls and many others, including soldiers, innocent men, women, the elderly, children, and even babies. All told, there were over 240 of them. The terrorists took these people, some of whom were still in their pajamas, into tunnels deep underground. This wasn't Boko Haram, and it wasn't in Nigeria. It was Hamas and palestinian islamic jihad, the ruling islamist factions in the Gaza Strip. And the people taken were Israelis. In this case, there were no viral hashtag campaigns. There were no clear and urgent statements from female leaders. The kinds of feminists that so many young girls look up to and have come to rely on for their information about the world. No Michelle Obama, no malala, no Emma Watson, no Greta Tunberg, no America Ferreira and I could go on and on and on. There has been no relentless rallying cry from our prominent women's organizations. Instead, there has been silence. Silence from the leaders of the "Me too" movement. Silence from the celebrities who spoke at the Women's march and, in time's up, silence from those who denounced pay gaps and Harvey Weinstein and Trump's grab him by the pussy comment and rape culture more generally. Silence from people who opposed Bret Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court. Silence save one weak statement 55 days after October 7 from UN Women, a group whose mission is to, quote, create an environment in which every woman and girl can exercise her human rights. When I saw the list of women's rights organizations who have said nothing, I nearly choked. Where is the solidarity for women in this country and in this world to stand up for our mothers, our sisters and our daughters? Silence for two months after October 7 from the National Organization for Women, the largest feminist activist organization in the United States. And when they finally did muster out a statement, they didn't even mention Hamas. Silence from the international committee of the Red Cross, who is supposed to be an independent and neutral organization to, quote, ensure humanitarian protection and assistance for victims of war and armed violence, and to promote the laws that protect victims of war. Silence from almost every organization you would expect to care about these women and these hostages, organizations who are chartered to actually do this work, to protect these hostages and to make a difference daily. Many of these people in these groups call for a ceasefire in Gaza, but they are silent about the hostages. Why do they cry for a ceasefire and not insist on freeing the hostages, the very thing that could actually end the war? There are 136 hostages still being held by Hamas in Gaza right this moment. Some of those people are dead. Two of them are babies. About 20 of them are young women, and it has been a hundred days since they disappeared beneath the earth's surface in Gaza. In those 100 days, thanks to those hostages who have been released, and thanks to the intrepid work of journalists in Israel and across the world, we have learned a great deal about what the feminists of the world are choosing largely to ignore. They are ignoring hostages who have been seriously wounded, shot or with dismembered limbs, who are without medical care. They are ignoring hostages who don't have enough food and water. They are ignoring hostages who are being beaten and tortured. They are ignoring hostages who have been sitting for 100 days in the pits of hell, as if all of that wouldn't be bad enough. But what they are also ignoring is the ongoing subjugation of those some 20 remaining women. And that is not hyperbole or hysteria or speculation or claims made by politicians to make a political point or advance the aims of the broader war. It is firsthand testimony that is coming out of the mouths of women who were there and who saw what was happening with their own eyes. One released hostage, 17 year old Agam Goldstein Almog, told the Free Press that about 50 days into her captivity, she met some of these young women in the tunnels, some of whom still had bloody gunshot wounds that had been left untreated and one of whom had a dismembered limb. They told Agam that they had been sexually abused. Here is what Agam told us. I heard from them accounts of terrifying and grotesque sexual abuse, she said, often at gunpoint. They told me that when they were sad and cried, their captors would take advantage of their helplessness even more and stroke and caress them and then shove and grab intimate parts of their bodies. They were treated, Agam told us, like playthings. Khren Goldstein Almug Agam's mother, who was held hostage with her daughter, told the New York Times that she, too, met women in the tunnels who said they were sexually abused. In recounting a conversation she had with these hostages, hen told israeli media that Hamas, quote, simply put a gun to their heads and did what they wanted to them at gunpoint. 21 year old Mia Shem, who was released after 54 days in captivity, told israeli media that before she was taken to Gaza, she was, quote, groped on her upper body by her first kidnapper. It was only when he realized that her arm was severed, she said, that he stopped. when she got to Gaza, she said she feared death and she feared rape. She said she thinks the only reason she wasn't raped in captivity is because her captor's wife and children were present in the home the whole time. Did he ever do something like that? No, only because his wife was outside the door. If we were there alone, something was bound to happen. Aviva Siegel, 64 years old, was held in Gaza for more than 50 days. Her husband is still in captivity. She testified before a Knesset committee that she witnessed a woman being tortured and another who showed signs that her captor had violated her. It's not just the released hostages giving these testimonies. One of the doctors who treated the released hostages reported that ten of the people who were freed, including men, were sexually abused in captivity. Another doctor said that among the 30 female hostages that he treated between the ages of twelve to 48, many suffered sexual assault during captivity. Another doctor said that many of the released female hostages showed signs of PTSD and said that the patients are, quote, deeply traumatized by extremely serious sexual assaults. None of this should come as a surprise because the entire world saw what Hamas did on October 7 above ground, in broad daylight, proudly captured in their own photographs and videos for the entire world to see. The extent of the rape and sexual violence by Hamas on October 7 has been well documented in pictures, in videos, in eyewitness accounts, in testimony from rescue teams and medics, in testimony from pathologists, and from people who prepare jewish bodies for burial according to jewish law. A New York Times investigation last month, the haunting must read piece is called screams without words, reported that medics found more than 30 bodies of women and girls with their clothes torn off and with signs of sexual abuse. They reviewed photographs of one woman's corpse with, quote, dozens of nails driven into her thighs and groin. They also reviewed a video provided by the israeli military, quote, showing two dead israeli soldiers at a base near Gaza who appeared to have been shot directly in their vaginas. One witness, a 24 year old woman named Sapir, who survived the Nova festival on October 7, spoke to the Times about what she saw that day. And this next part is hard for me to read, and it may be hard for you to listen to, but I think it's important for me to read it. Quote, the first victim she said she saw was a young woman with copper color hair, blood running down her back, pants pushed down to her knees. One man pulled her by the hair and made her bend over. Another penetrated her, Sapir said. And every time she flinched, he plunged a knife into her back. She said she then watched another woman, quote, shredded into pieces while one terrorist raped her. She said another pulled out a box cutter and sliced off her breast. One continues to rape her and the other throws her breast to someone else and they play with it, throw it, and it falls on the ground. She said the men sliced her face and then the woman fell out of view. Around the same time, she said, she saw three other women raped and terrorists carrying the severed heads of three more women. Another witness at Nova, Roz Cohen, told the Times and later CNN, of a gang raped he witnessed at the festival on October 7. It was like half a circle, and the girl was in the middle of the circle. And after they pulled the clothes off of the girl, one of them started to rape her. And it was something like 40 seconds. And after he rape her, he take a knife and kill her, murder her. And after he did it, he continued to rape the dead body. In countless IDF testimonies, soldiers and medics and volunteers have testified to what they found in the homes of the kibutsim near Gaza. One rescue officer testified that when he entered the home of one of the communities attacked, he found a 14 or 15 year old girl who had been raped and then killed. Shot in the head in her bedroom next to her sister. I see two girls, 1415 years old teenager. Her pants are pulled down. Someone executed her right after he brutally, brutally raped her while just shooting her in the head. Some first responders testified that they couldn't even tell if the bodies they found were men or women. That's how badly these people were mutilated. I saw in front of my eyes a woman laying. She was naked. She had nails and different objects in her female organs. Her body was brutal in a way that we could not identify her. Others who work for the military morgue testified that they saw, quote, women with bloody underwear, with broken bones, broken legs and broken pelvises. As the Times investigation points out, the true number of women assaulted on October 7 will never be known. And that's because some of the bodies were burned so badly that they weren't bodies in the end at all. And it's also because jewish religious ritual dictates that bodies be buried as quickly as possible, usually the day after death. And of course, there was the absolute chaos of the days following the attack, when terrorists were still roaming free in southern Israel, and where israeli medics and volunteers were simply unable to keep up with the death toll and the destruction at the Nova festival site. To choose just one example, bodies were hauled away by the truckload, more than 360 of them at that particular site. Now imagine right now if one of these 18 or 19 year olds being held up by Hamas was your daughter. Imagine if the world. Imagine if other mothers and daughters and women did not scream on your behalf. That silence alone would be unimaginable. But then imagine if some of them didn't just not speak up for you, but instead they berated you or suggested that your child somehow deserved it. That's exactly what happened to the mother of one teenage girl who currently remains in captivity. Last month, in New York City, a group of anti Israel protesters harassed Dr. Ayelet Levi Shakar, the mother of a 19 year old girl, Nama, who was taken hostage on October 7. Shame on you, they yelled at the grieving mother. Ayelette's 19 year old daughter, Nama Levy, was taken hostage by Hamas in a now infamous video. Her hands were bound, her ankles were cut, her pants were soaked in blood, and she is stolen away by screaming terrorists with automatic weapons spirited away into the back of a black jeep. Or take how the Red Cross responded to the family of Darone Steinbrecher, a 30 year old woman being held by Hamas and Gaza without her medication. The family told Jake Tapper that when they begged the Red Cross for help, the Red Cross actually told the family, you should focus your concerns on Gazins. My mom had a few meets with the Red Cross and she told them, my sister need to get her medicine. And they told her that we should care more about the arab people on the other side and less about our beloved one. Or take just this week, when a San Francisco man who lost five family members at Kibutz Beri, including two who were kidnapped, shared his testimony at a city council meeting, he was met with booze and jeers and pig noises from anti Israel activists. It fuels anti semitism and hatred, as exemplified in this room right now. Listen, the pig noises and everything else, this is pure anti semitism. And I have never since I've moved to, I am pausing public comments, this kind of hatred against a minority group ever and again. Just last week, when an israeli woman in New York City went over to a group of anti Israel protesters and tried to talk to them. My friend is being held hostage by Hamas, she said. One of the female protesters responded, go cry at home, bitch. Go cry at home. And then maybe worst of all, there are the women who are questioning or denying that any of this happened at all. Now, it's important to note that there are also a lot of men denying the atrocities of October 7 and the ongoing atrocities, the gray zones, Max Blumenthal, the journalist Aaron Mate, the journalist Ali Abumina, Owen Jones from the Guardian but the thing I cannot wrap my head around is how a staggering number of these deniers and the people ripping down the posters of the hostages are women themselves. Women like Brianna Joygray, a political commentator at the Hill, host of the show rising and most notably Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign national press secretary. She also happens to have a law degree from Harvard. Over and over again, Gray has simply refused to accept that Hamas raped israeli women. Why? Because the, quote, Zionists, she says, were relying on men as witnesses. And because, as she put it, Israel didn't collect rape kits on October 7. In case that seems hard to believe, here's the whole tweet for you. Zionists are asking that we believe the uncorroborated eyewitness account of men who describe alleged rape victims in OD fetishistic terms. Shame on Israel for not seriously investigating claims of rape and collecting rape kits. Next, she added, it was fishy that no female victims have offered their testimony. As the feminist Jill Filipovic put it perfectly, yes, it is generally the case that if you kill your victims, they can't testify against you. I'd add that it's hard to give testimony when you're held underground at gunpoint in a tunnel by a terrorist. More recently, in the face of overwhelming evidence, including the New York Times investigation, an investigation that did include female eyewitnesses, Gray argued that she simply has skepticism that is rooted in the timing of what she calls the resurgence of these claims. And this is subjective. I'm not saying that I have any evidence of this, but it felt coordinated and out of nowhere and perhaps in response to clearly dwindling public support. If I hadn't told you that these words were coming out of the mouth of a former Bernie Sanders campaign secretary, I'd venture to guess that you would have thought they were coming out of the mouth of someone like Alex Jones. This is a person, Gray is, who tweeted in 2018 about Bret Kavanaugh's sexual assault allegations that, quote, the burden is on Kavanaugh to rebut it. I could go on about the hypocrisy of Brianna Joy Gray, but the thing is, this isn't just an instance of a single morally blind person. In November, Samantha Pearson, then director of a sexual assault center at Canada's Alberta University, denied that acts of rape had taken place on October 7, calling them unverified accusations. Last week, when democratic politician Matt Dorsey asked the San Francisco Board of Supervisors committee to include language of Hamas's mass sexual violence in a ceasefire resolution it had passed, he was met with shouts of liar from the crowd and according to a two month investigation by the New York Times, quote, showing a pattern of rape, mutilation and extreme brutality against women, end quote. In another instance from last week, when a woman was confronted on the street and asked why was she tearing down the posters raising awareness of Hamas's use of rape as a weapon of war, she responded, because they have been proven false. Excuse me? Why'd you just tear down signs of women who went through sexual assault in Israel? Yeah. Because they have been proven false. They've been proven false? Yes. Now, perhaps you're listening to this right now, and you wonder if Israel is prosecuting its war against Hamas in the right way. Perhaps you're listening to this and thinking, too many innocent Palestinians have been killed. Perhaps you're thinking Palestinians should have their own state. Or maybe you're thinking Israel has historically been unjust in its treatment of the Palestinians. Or maybe you're listening and thinking about a thousand other things. A thousand other things about israeli policy or about BiBi or about settlements or about Hamas or about US aid, or about fears of an ever growing war. All of those are fair positions. All of those are fair questions. All of those are things worthy of debate. But when you are asking things like, why didn't they use rape kits on dead women, raped and shot in the head by terrorists on October 7, you sound a little bit like a 911 truther. It was almost like they ignored it because they wanted it to happen. Oh, come off it, Jesse. No, not, oh, come off it. Every. Wait a minute. Every war thought starts with a false flag operation or like a Sandy hook denier. The official story of Sandy Hook has more holes in it than swiss cheese. So don't ever think the globalists that have hijacked this country wouldn't stage something like this. Or like, why did Hitler want to gas the Jews? He didn't. The gas chamber they show you in Auschwitz is as genuine as the fairy castle in Orlando, rather like Disneyland. And Auschwitz has become the kingpin, the linchpin of the Holocaust industry. I've been asking myself for weeks now, where does all of this come from? There's no single answer. Perhaps it's politics, the growing trend of young women and not young men moving leftward. And if you're on the hard left, you've been immersed now for at least a decade in the belief that the world is divided plainly in two, the oppressor and the oppressed. And Israel is the ultimate oppressor. And likely everything in your world, your school, your social media feed, the celebrities you admire, reflects that worldview back to you. Or perhaps it's fear. Fear of speaking out on issues that are perceived as controversial. Fear of being tarred as choosing sides. Fear of being tarred as choosing the wrong side. Or perhaps it's because facing the reality of this situation is actually too difficult to bear. Or perhaps it's because the victims in this case are Israelis. And Jews. As my friend Bhatya Anger Sargon has noted for years, certain people demanded we replace due process with believe all women. These same people, when presented with evidence of the mass rape of israeli women, now demand context. Believe all women became don't believe the confessions of rapists if their victims are Jews. Whatever the reason, for anyone, especially for women, to remain silent or to downplay or to deny such atrocities is an assault not just on the victims, not just on their families, not just on Israelis, and not just on Jews. It is an assault on truth itself. Look for a second at the faces of these girls. Leary Albag, age 18 Agam Berger, age 19. Daniella Gilboa, age 19. Karina Ariev, age 19. These are four of the remaining young israeli women still in Hamas captivity. This horrifying video was taken on the very first day of the war. They have now been there for a hundred look at these four women's faces and think about what they have endured. Last month, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said that one of the reasons Hamas doesn't want to release the young female hostages is they don't want these women to be able to talk about what happened to them during their time in custody. Everyone knows exactly what he means by that. There have been a few notable exceptions, of course, to the silence. The musician pink, Cheryl Sandberg, Regina Spector, Mayan Bialik, Amy Schumer, Jessica Seinfeld. But they have been so notable because they have been so rare. And most of the prominent famous women who have spoken out are jewish. Everyone I just named is listen to what Naama Levy's father told the New York Post about his 17 year old still being held by Hamas in Gaza. My daughter believed Michelle Obama to be someone who not only cared about global women, but also someone with a really good heart. Why has she and all these other famous women Nama looked up to and all of the global human rights organizations she believed in stayed silent about what has happened to my Naama. Naama's mother told the Free Press last month that the remaining female hostages are not bargaining chips to be debated by diplomats. They are daughters, and one of them is mine. My primal scream should be the scream of mothers everywhere. It has been a hundred days. It is time to release the hostages. Bring them home. Bring every single one of them home. Bring back our girls.

Gaza ceasefire will ‘enable’ Hamas and ‘West is next,’ human rights lawyer warns! Video Transcription: The calls that we've been seeing over the course of today for a ceasefire unfortunately seem to fall unilaterally on Israel and deprive Hamas of agency and of responsibility. What we're seeing in terms of the debate in parliament also is requiring Israel essentially to cease its self defense and its efforts to return the hostages. 134 hostages remain in Hamas captivity, with reports of torture, rape and other forms of violence being metered out against them, as well as starvation and the deprivation of medical attention. And Israel has been clear in its aims from the start of this war that it intends to destroy Hamas and its capability to ever conduct anything like the 7 October again and to return the hostages. What's interesting is that for the most part, the international community was signed on to those aims until now. And this about face is inexplicable because the ability to complete those aims, return the hostages and destroy Hamas, would never have been possible without the final Hamas stronghold in Rafa being subject to this military operation. And so this is a big change in policy, and the reasons for it have certainly not been coherent. How fair is it to say that there is a double standard when it comes to Israel, whenever it's military response to a terror attack like the massacres of October 7, that isn't applied to any other army? What we've seen is unfortunately far worse than a double standard we have seen in the course of this debate. Blood libels and complete falsehoods being leveled against Israel and in particular its military operation in Gaza. Untruths being told not only about the way that Israel is prosecuting this operation against Hamas, but also about the application of international law and international humanitarian law, specifically allegations of war crimes which have absolutely no basis in the reality and the facts or the law. The fact of the matter is that those military and legal experts with an insight into Israel's past military operations in Gaza, as well as an understanding of Israel's operations, now have been consistently clear that, in fact, Israel goes well above the requirements of international law in the precautions that it takes against civilian collateral damage and in targeting its strikes and providing warnings of those strikes, so much so that it's been called the most moral army in the history of warfare. Now, that is completely at ods, with what we have heard, with unfounded and untrue allegations of Israel targeting palestinian civilians, and repeated references to casualty figures that are put out by the Hamas terrorist group through its control of the health authorities in Gaza. Now, the casualty figures that have been relied upon in the course of this debate are missing some important pieces of information. The first is any form of independent investigation, because the Hamas figures themselves cannot be taken as a given. We have multiple examples of clear inflation and fabrication. The second aspect of the problems with these figures is that they make no distinction between civilians and combatants. And indeed, we've seen many parliamentarians referring to them in the course of this debate as though they were all civilian casualties. Now, Israel has been clear that the number of terrorists it knows to have eliminated is approaching 12,000. What we simply don't know is how many in total are members of Hamas or palestinian islamic jihad, or even perhaps ordinary civilians taking part in hostilities, in taking up arms, and therefore becoming legitimate military targets themselves. That we certainly don't know. The other aspect of this information, which is not something that Hamas is putting out, is how these people it claims have died, became deceased. Because we do know that Hamas are targeting their own civilians in Gaza, that they have been shooting them, that they have been bombing fleeing civilians, convoys following the path of the humanitarian corridors that Israel has sought to protect and defend. That is Hamas direct fire. Only in the last couple of days, the protests that we have seen erupting against Hamas in the Gaza Strip by ordinary palestinian civilians, those have also been targeted by direct live fire. And the other manner in which Hamas has been killing its own civilians is with rockets fired by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad that frequently fall short in the Gaza Strip. And we've seen examples of this famously in the context of the al Akli hospital car park on the 17 October. But there are very many rockets that are targeting israeli civilians that, in fact, fall short in the Gaza Strip that have also been killing civilians. All of this, of course, all of this important context and the responsibility of Hamas was wholly absent from the debate for the most part. And the vast majority of parliamentarians had simply attributed all of the deaths to Israel's actions of self defense. And that is not correct on the basis of what we know about the facts on the ground. It stems from repeated blood libels, allegations of ethnic cleansing, now even of genocide, which are an inversion of reality when we consider that the real genocide was perpetrated by Hamas, acts of genocide against Jews on the 7 October. And that when we also consider, of course, that Hamas has threatened to do this again and again, and we've seen an inversion of reality and continual unfounded blame being put on Israel, that has been the cornerstone of so very many of the speeches calling for the ceasefire in this debate. An immediate ceasefire would, of course, leave the 134 hostages in Hamas captivity. And it's clear from the hostages that Israel was able to release through its negotiations, that it was only military pressure on Hamas that facilitated that humanitarian pause, which was then very quickly violated by Hamas when it suddenly refused to return the remaining female hostages and then began to fire upon Israel. So when we think about how the previous exchange was facilitated, how the previous extraction return of hostages was facilitated, and we think about the prospects of the future release of hostages, what this debate and what calls for this ceasefire are doing are encouraging Hamas to keep going and encouraging Hamas to continue its attack on Israel, and to refrain from realistic negotiations and the return of the hostages. They also. These calls for a ceasefire do an enormous wrong to the palestinian people, because they suggest, these parliamentarians that have been issuing this call, that Hamas should remain, and Hamas should remain in a position not only where it continues to threaten Israel and repeats its desire to commit the atrocities of the 7 October over and over again, but where it continues to oppress, torture and abuse and neglect its own civilians in the Gaza Strip. And the Palestinians in Gaza deserve better than that. They deserve the support of the international community to rid them and Israel of Hamas once and for all. We've seen the result of previous ceasefires, essentially imposed by pressure from the international community all the way from 2008 through, of course, in 2014, in 2021. On each of these occasions, Hamas has used the opportunity to expand its terror network and infrastructure and rearm in order to continue to pose what it hopes is an existential threat to Israel. It has been clear about its intentions here. And what the international community and members of parliament in the United Kingdom really need to understand is that by continuing to support Hamas in its efforts to avoid its destruction, they are simply taking us back to a situation where this cycle will continue over and over again. The only hope for the peace that they profess is to ensure that Hamas is eradicated, to ensure that it can no longer govern the Gaza Strip. And in keeping with that, we've heard references to a Marshall plan for Gaza in the course of the debate in parliament. It's important to note, of course, that the Marshall plan was set in motion in parallel with a program of denazification. And when we consider the real cause of not just the atrocities of the 7 October, but all of the terrorism that israeli civilians have suffered under for decades, this has been the result of programs of indoctrination which have been funded by international taxpayers and supported by United nations organizations. 3000 terrorists crossed the border on the 7 October, and according to UN statistics, about three quarters of them would have been educated in UN run schools under the UNRA system and the Palestinian Authority curriculum. And it is through this indoctrination from kindergarten onwards, that we have seen an unrelenting support for the programme that Hamas has put forward for slaughter of Jews and for the attempted annihilation and continued acts of genocide against jews. The fact that this has been absent from the discussion, and that instead this tick box scenario of calling for a ceasefire that would leave this indoctrination and this terror and this oppression of the palestinian people themselves in place, is extremely revealing. It shows that what we have seen on display is a great deal of ignorance and arrogance. And I've also seen certain discussions talking about it in the context of a colonialist imperialist attitude. The notion that the palace of Westminster would be able to educate those in the region as to what the real issues are and the proper and appropriate paths to peace, that certainly isn't going down very well amongst those that truly understand what Hamas is about and what Iran's terror proxies are seeking to achieve. When I say that they are playing into the hands of the terrorist organization Hamas, the international clamor that is now seeking to prevent Israel from pursuing its lawful rights of self defense and conducting this military operation in accordance with international law, calls that are seeking to put pressure on Israel to desist serving the interests of Hamas because they are enabling the Hamas leadership to seek to survive to fight another day. And that is surely the major fashion in which the conflict, and in particular the suffering of the people in the Gaza Strip, will be perpetuated. And what's your message to UK politicians? Ultimately, it has to be this, that this is not simply Israel's fight alone. Hamas, Hizbalah, as proxies of ISIS, see Israel as the first enemy on a very long battle against the west. The West is next is a phrase that has certainly garnered currency in recent weeks. It may sound trite, but it is extremely important to understand that the approach and the aims of these islamist fundamentalist terrorists are contrary to all values of freedom and democracy and western liberal democratic values. And that has been the key element of the oppression also of the palestinian people and the inability of proper, representative liberal government to flourish in the territories that are controlled both by Hamas but also by the Palestinian Authority.
