Hamas’s Qassam Brigades has threatened to execute Israeli captives if Israel continues to bombard and kill civilians in Gaza.
“Any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution,” said Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas’ Qassam Brigades.
“We regret this decision but we hold the Zionist enemy and their leadership the responsibility for this,” he said.
Ok not to say this isn’t awful but you if you have to go back 75 years to find 4 rapes, don’t you think the wording ‘countless’ and the implication this is a regular practice in the West Bank is a bit of a lie?
didn’t see it was already 75 years ago. i think you’re right.
i went looking online to see if i could find any reports on rape allegations. most sources are news websites that i’m not familiar with so i don’t want to use them as source.
most reputable news sources have articles about rape allegations among soldiers, not from palestinians. Which i think is a problem in every army, regardless of the nation.
so i think i’m in agreement with you here that there’s not much evidence that the IDF is raping palestinians.
having said that, it feels like a technicality in the face of all the palestinians the IDF has murdered and evicted. Where i’m talking exclusively about civilians, not hamas terrorists.
