“Kugel also explained that the age range of the victims spans from 3 months to 80 or 90 years old. Many bodies, including those of babies, are without heads.

"Many bodies, including those of babies, are without heads." Evil, beyond all imagination. "Asked if they were decapitated," Dr. Chen Kugel, the head of Israel's National Center of Forensic Medicine (Abu Kabir) in Tel Aviv, "answered yes." More examples, which unfortunately must be documented and shared, in light of the history revisionism that's already underway:
Forensic pathologists, including Israeli staffers as well as volunteers from abroad, were visibly disturbed by the evidence before them. Despite every effort to remain objective and detached—as called for by the profession—many broke down into tears throughout the day. During the initial press conference, the forensics team showed images from their investigations. Among the images were those of charred hands with marks that revealed where the victims’ hands were bound behind their backs with metal wire before being burned alive. Perhaps the most disturbing image in the slideshow was a completely charred mass of flesh, which at first glance could not be seen as ever having belonged to a human. It was only after a CT scan was done that experts could see the inhumanity of the image.Two spinal cords—one belonging to an adult, one to someone young—a parent and child bound together by metal wires in a final embrace before being set alight.
The violent sexual assaults, also declared by some to be a lie, were also horribly real:
"There is evidence of mass rape of so brutal that they broke their victims’ pelvis – women, grandmothers, children."

Which brings us to the screening. Hamas was proud of their subhuman atrocities. They filmed them. And Israel simply showed their enemies' own footage to international journalists:
Hundreds of journalists and photographers from media companies all over the world attended today the screening of a film of assorted footage showing the extent of the horrors committed by Hamas.

The IDF just wrapped a press briefing in which bodycam, CCTV and phone footage from the Oct. 7 attacks were shared.
For 43 minutes the sounds and video of gunshots and unedited murder were punctuated by gasps and sobs from grown adults.

Audio is put up on screen: A Hamas terrorist calls his father:
"Father, I killed 10 Jews! Check your WhatsApp! I sent you the photos! Father, I killed 10 Jews! I killed 10 Jews with my bare hands. check your WhatsApp. Father, be proud of me!"— David Patrikarakos (@dpatrikarakos) October 23, 2023
"I killed ten Jews." This is the sickness being defended, minimized, or cheered throughout much of the world. In this same vein, Fox war correspondent Trey Yingst documented some of what he personally saw at a Kibbutz in southern Israel:

He also obtained footage of one of the captured Hamas terrorists being interrogated:

Among other things, they were ordered to behead Israelis. Directly from one of the terrorists. Here is how a 'journalist' at a left-wing publication tied himself into knots over the forensic evidence provided, apparently backtracking under pressure to qualify his characterization of the obvious truth:
(The verb behead has multiple definitions, and is sometimes used to mean decapitate; the report indicates that Hamas did behead babies in that sense. But the term can also connote a form of execution using a knife, and we do not have confirmation of beheading in this sense)— Eric Levitz (@EricLevitz) October 22, 2023
"The report established that babies were found headless, a fact that lends plausibility to claims of beheading." Do these people hear themselves? Just as the anti-Israel fanatics refuse to believe Hamas beheaded babies, they also insisted that Israel 'bombed a hospital in Gaza,' killing hundreds. Evidence proving that the damage near a hospital was caused by a misfired rocket shot at Israel by Palestinian terrorists was established fairly quickly, and confirmed by US officials. But the lie had circled the globe before the truth could be fully ascertained. And because 'pro-Palestine' conspiracy theorists won't accept Israel's or America's word, independent media reviews (including by outlets who initially, uncritically regurgitated the Hamas propaganda) have reached the same conclusion:
An Associated Press visual analysis finds that the deadly blast that rocked a Gaza hospital was likely caused by a rocket fired from inside Palestinian territory that veered off course, broke up in the air and crashed to the ground. https://t.co/No6FS5SCQ9— The Associated Press (@AP) October 21, 2023

One side in the current war over truth has wrongly denied or cast doubt on the beheadings and rapes, and falsely accused Israel of bombing a hospital. The other side has told the truth. One side holds large rallies demanding the safe return of hundreds of hostages stolen by terrorists, many of them children. They thank law enforcement for protecting them. The other side holds large rallies featuring scenes and rhetoric like this, this, and this. It all speaks for itself, very loudly. I'll leave you with even more evidence that in addition to Hamas aiming to kill as many Israeli civilians as possible, the terrorist group is more than willing to sacrifice Gazans for 'the cause:'
This is what Hamas always does. And when Israel responds by hitting these legitimate military targets -- made legitimate by Hamas' intentional choices -- the usual suspects engage in agitprop, screaming nonsense about "genocide," etc. https://t.co/K5rFUFHErJ— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) October 22, 2023
They don’t care if they kill their own people — one of their spokesmen just said so explicitly on Arab language television, shrugging that such “sacrifices” are necessary https://t.co/CglXi44wNu— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) October 21, 2023
Here's the interview referenced in the above tweet:
Incredible interview in which an Arab journalist asks all the hard questions about Hamas that so many activists in the West refuse to consider.
One of the results is to expose in painful clarity how little Hamas cares for the well-being of Arabs in Palestine, Lebanon and beyond. https://t.co/uevzWdsukP— Yascha Mounk (@Yascha_Mounk) October 20, 2023
Notice his list of "sacrifices" that have been required for so-called liberation. This is how they justify putting their own civilians in the line of fire, then parading their corpses around for the cameras, even as they lie about death tolls. They do a lot of lying, like when he states that Hamas doesn't target civilians, later pretending that the hostages are legitimate "prisoners." But the 'sacrifices' answer, and the boasting about how the hostages are meant to secure lopsided releases to 'empty Israeli jails' of jihadists, are flashes of revealing candor. Finally, the 'open air prison' of Gaza apparently has some Americans living in it. Non-hostages, that is. Guess who won't let them leave?
