The mother of a woman whose body was paraded through the streets by Hamas has pleaded for help finding her daughter.
A video showing German tattoo artist Shani Louk on the back of a pickup truck circulated on social media after the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.
Louk had been attending an outdoor “Festival for Peace” party near Kibbutz Urim when the area was targeted. First, rockets were launched, then gunmen and appeared and shot into the crowd, CNN reported. Party attendees told the outlet people immediately started to flee, passing dead bodies on the ground as they tried to escape the massacre.
The attack and resulting conflict has left hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians dead, with Israel’s prime minister declaring war.
A video of a young woman with dreadlocks on the back of a pickup truck and surrounded by Hamas soldiers started circulating on social media shortly after the attack. In it, she appears stripped to her underwear, and her legs are bent at unnatural angles, while one soldier grabs her hair. People are also seen spitting on her body.

Just keep reading the replies from V H. He gets more apologist as you go farther down.
I disagree with this person but they aren’t exactly Hamas supporters. I was expecting something more clear than just comments that could only vaguely be regarded as supportive/excusing of violence.
We have different definitions of “vaguely”, I guess.
This person is not excusing killing civilians, they’re shifting the blame to Israel as a colonizer. This is a legitimate point to make and discuss with others.
I think you might be reading too much into it.
How can you say “this is not the fault of the killers, but of the colonizers who incited them” and not also be excusing the killers? “Look what you made me do” is classic abuser psychology.
I don’t know, with a colonial reading of it, you could make that argument. Like I said, I don’t agree, but it’s not exactly pro-Hamas (which is what this discussion is about)
