Friendly reminder that Israel weaponized sexual violence long before even Hamas was a thing, let alone Oct 7.
Everything that Hamas did on Oct 7, Israel has already done to the Palestinian people.
- Rape was always a disgusting strategy of war
  
  Absolutely.
- Friendly reminder your friendly reminder has no observable purpose beyond whataboutism.
  
  But did you condemn Israel?
- Friendly reminder, don't believe people posting random shit without evidence. So your own research and fact check the sources for bias.
  Often times you'll find people like the above that just want you to support terrorists by attempting to invalidate human suffering with lies.
  
  Friendly reminder, this genocide has shown the world how Israel operates.
  Often times you’ll find people like the above defending genocidal colonist states by attempting to invalidate human suffering with lies.
  Like for instance the above user posts nothing but pro-Israel comments. Such an inauthentic account is designed to manipulate you.
  
  I mean Israel itself has admitted to pouring funds into having internet warriors spread propaganda and negatively target anything that challenges their narrative. A better use of time would be to continue spreading the information they're trying to suppress and spread them thin.
- Cool. Source? Also this is a news article about a specific event. That's why they are describing and framing the article of how Hamas did it on that day.
  
  Cool
  No. Not cool.
  Source?

  Yes I get that. But realize that rape is rape. Trivializing rape of other people or asking for evidence while taking stories from your own at face value is bullshit.
  If we are condemning Hamas for its atrocities in Israel then we must condemn Israel for what it has been committing for the past 75 years. Yes, 75 - there are documented cases of rape committed by Israelis against Palestinians during the Nakba.
  
  I'm trivializing the what about ism, especially when the what about ism is incredibly vague.

- Exactly. Disgusting and extreme brutality on both sides but especially from the Israeli side and for generations now.
