Debunking October 7 Rape Allegations

Norman Finkelstein points to the very same UN report that Israelis tout as proof that there was rape by Hamas (based on "witness" reports).  That very same report concluded there was no physical evidence of any kind (photographic, video, or forensic).  5000 photos and 50 hours of video were examined.

The claimed rapes were in public, gang rapes, with the Israeli witnesses claiming to be hiding nearby.  Any one of these witnesses could have take a photograph or cell phone video, but none exist.  The region next to Gaza has more security cameras than anywhere on earth.  And yet, there is no security camera footage of these alleged rapes.

Finkelstein concludes there is not merely "no evidence," there is strong evidence the rapes did not occur.

A number of the other viral photographs and videos are also debunked in this thread.

Hundreds of independent journalists are boycotting the NYTimes opinion page because of their fueling of Hamas rape hoaxes.

Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers flaunt their actual documented rapes and those who dare prosecute them are persecuted.
