‘Screams Without Words’: How Hamas Weaponized Sexual Violence on Oct. 7
[warning - below is an exerpt with graphic descriptions of rape and torture and murder]
[... an eyewitness saw ...] 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 “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 road,” Sapir said.
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 ...
It is hard to read the article but people need to know what happened in Israel, what Hamas did, if they want to understand the war.

That is so unbearably sad and horrifying. I read the New York Times article. The adjective that came to mind was "satanic". It was as if the perpetrators had totally lost their humanity and had given themselves over to hatred and darkness. I do believe they will have to answer for it, in the next life if not this one. I hope there was some footage which will identify the perpetrators.
Yes, I hope they pay for it. I think it's this and what happened to the other people killed on Oct 7 that is driving the Israeli army.
