United Nations slammed for silence over Hamas rapes, mutilation and murder of Israeli women, critics say

JERUSALEM – Women’s rights groups and officials in Israel who have been working tirelessly for the past six weeks to document cases of rape and gender-based atrocities carried out by Hamas terrorists during their mass, brutal terror attack in Israel on Oct. 7., say the United Nations is ignoring them.

They say they have also shared much of this evidence, some of it horrifyingly graphic and all of it extremely intimate, with the United Nations and groups that protect and empower women.

The response: Silence.

"We’ve sent letters and shared graphic documentation," Sarah Weiss Maudi, a senior diplomat and legal adviser in Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told Fox News Digital. "Their silence is so deafening that it’s sickening," she said.

Weiss Maudi, who last year became the first Israeli representative to serve as a senior adviser to the president of the 77th Session of the U.N. General Assembly in New York, said that U.N. bodies, particularly U.N. Women, whose specific mandate is to champion the rights of women regardless of race or ethnicity, have simply refused to acknowledge that atrocities were committed against Israeli women – and young girls – despite much of it filmed by Hamas, and other Palestinian terrorists from Gaza, themselves.

Wasn’t Iran once in charge of its Human Rights commission?

The time is way overdue for Americans to stand up and shout, DEPORT THE UN TURD WORLDERS! The UN has outlived it usefulness. The boyz need to go home.

Meanwhile, at the United Nations, Secretary General Antonio Guterres said that the violence grew out of "a 56-year long occupation and no political end in sight."

Can someone fill me in on what of value the United Nations has done?
As of its inception in 1945——The United Nations was established in an attempt to maintain international peace and security and to achieve cooperation among nations on economic, social, and humanitarian problems.—Mission summary.


Update. We have had bloody and costly battles in Korea, Vietnam, several times in Israel, the Gulf states, a Bosnian-Serbo-Croatian war and many others.
What has the UN stopped through talking and threatening with UN peacekeepers?
Also, it welcomed Yasser Arafat wearing a pistol at his hip and condoned Chinese aggression and ignored Pol Pot and Idi Amin and others.

This is dog bites man. A man bites dog story would be the UN actually standing up against Muslim and/or Leftist atrocities, and returning to its support of Israel during its early days. In the meantime, the only reason the UN should stay in Manhattan is that you want to keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

The UN hates the Jews. Always has. Their silence is basically them cheering.

Alger Hiss designed the UN to be an appendage of the USSR.

UN Peacekeepers have their own history of rape, and sexual abuse. Of course they’re not going to say anything.

They act like it didn’t happen. We need to get out of the UN. What’s the point of their existence? They sat on their hands during the Rwanda genocide too. They just watched it happen.
