On Friday evening outside the Tate Modern in London, activists flooded a feminist art event in protest against Hamas’ alleged use of sexual violence.
The women wore bloodied pants in honor of 19-year-old Naama Levy who was taken hostage by the militant group in Gaza during the October 7 attacks on Israel. They also carried signs with the names and faces of hostages and tied themselves to one another with rope, chanting “Bring her home” and “Rape is a war crime”, the Jewish Chronicle reported.
The activists were stationed outside a Tate event for the art collective Guerrilla Girls and the Russian punk rock resistance group XXXXX Riot. The event, organizers explained, “showed the silence and complicity of the international feminist community in the face of the mass rape of women and girls by Hamas”.

The demonstration was intended to raise awareness for Israeli female hostages and to criticize the lack of effort from feminist, cultural, and women’s organizations.
“Most of these organizations have ignored or failed to properly address the violence and sexual crimes committed against Israeli women and girls during the October 7 massacre, while the Israeli hostages are still facing, more than 100 days after, the same violence,” the organizers added.
This is one such effort among others, including a much larger grassroots #BringThemHomeNow campaign focused on bring those who have been taken home and providing support for their families.
Released hostages have reported witnessing sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas, while members of ZAKA, a ultra-orthodox Jewish human remains recovery organization, reported recovering evidence of sexual violence and rape. A two-month New York Times investigation argued that attacks against women were part of a “broad pattern of gender-based violence” on October 7.
Infidel women are to be used at will by Muslim males. It’s in the book.
About time, but at least they finally did so.
The feminists’ silence is deafening.
Hamas raped ‘women, grandmothers, children,’ so violently ‘they broke victims’ pelvis,’
The Guardian reported that “mounting evidence of rapes and genital mutilation” on Oct. 7 “pointed to possible crimes against humanity.” Then came the big admission, although it was hedged around in various ways: “Israeli intelligence officials, experts and sources with direct knowledge of interrogation reports of captured Hamas fighters believe units that attacked were beforehand given a text that drew on a controversial and contested interpretation of traditional Islamic military jurisprudence, claiming that captives were ‘the spoils of war.’ This potentially legitimised the abduction of civilians and other abuses, without being an explicit instruction to do so.” It also noted that “in at least two unsourced videos of interrogations of alleged Hamas members,” the jihadis “are heard talking about instructions given to rape women.”

In Islam, rape is *not* a war crime. It is encouraged by Allah.
Removing rape as an acceptable tool of war is yet another example of racist european colonial norms imposed on peoples of color.
Meanwhile the EU is worried about far more important issues such as the opening of the Star Trek TV series. https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4213749/posts /SPIT
You aren’t being “intersectional!”
They had to shame the fake feminists who won’t lift a finger
Priorities.
Or maybe SMERFs, but I'd have to think of a good word to begin this acronym starting with 'S'.
Which only goes to show how evil ISlime truly is.
That’s because they’re hypocrites.
Slimy is a good word.
It’s because allah’s true identity is satan.
Thanks
My pleasure.
