The Silence From International Bodies Over Hamas' Mass Rapes Is a Betrayal of All Women

Note the article has very graphic descriptions of the attacks on Oct 7.

Two days after the horrific Hamas attack of October 7, I met Rotem, a young mother of two small children from a Kibbutz on the Gaza border. I held my breath as she recounted how she ran with her children to hide while terrorists rampaged through their home, how they made it to the safe room and desperately held the door, praying the terrorists wouldn't enter.

Her terror echoed accounts I've heard from abused women, except now the threat was not from a violent husband. And Rotem was not alone; she is one of thousands of Israeli women who simultaneously faced murder and rape by Hamas terrorists on that fateful day.

At the President of Israel's Residence in Jerusalem, we are preparing for the day the United Nations General Assembly has designated the International Day for the Prevention of Violence against Women, which is observed every November 25. Every year, I host victims, civil-society leaders, activists, and scholars committed to women's rights and safety on this day.

But this year will be different. Many things changed on October 7 when thousands of Hamas terrorists massacred Israeli families, burnt children and the elderly, and kidnapped hostages. This deeply impacted our visceral understanding of the cruelty of gender-based sexual violence—and our faith in the international organizations that claim to care about women.

They've had 75 years to negotiate a permanent settlement

And they haven't, instead they embraced terrorism.

That's on them.

Are you and I blameless for Iraq? I didn't kill anyone nor did I vote for Bush. How about the overthrow of the government in Iran? Me and my family didn't have anything to do with that either.

The first step towards peace and reconciliation involves taking ownership for your mistakes, something that the Palestinians aren't even remotely interested in doing,in fact they still keep externalizing their locus of control, and create false historical narratives that absolve them of all responsibilities. Just look at what Abbas said recently denying that Israeli women and children were killed in the Oct 7th attack.
