Israeli officials say that everywhere Hamas terrorists struck — the rave, the military bases along the Gaza border and the kibbutzim — they brutalized women.
A two-month investigation by The Times uncovered painful new details, establishing that the attacks against women were not isolated events but part of a broader pattern of gender-based violence on Oct. 7.
Relying on video footage, photographs, GPS data from mobile phones and interviews with more than 150 people, including witnesses, medical personnel, soldiers and rape counselors, The Times identified at least seven locations where Israeli women and girls appear to have been sexually assaulted or mutilated.
Four witnesses described in graphic detail seeing women raped and killed at two different places along Route 232, the same highway where Ms. Abdush’s half-naked body was found sprawled on the road at a third location.
And The Times interviewed several soldiers and volunteer medics who together described finding more than 30 bodies of women and girls in and around the rave site and in two kibbutzim in a similar state as Ms. Abdush’s — legs spread, clothes torn off, signs of abuse in their genital areas.
Many of the accounts are difficult to bear, and the visual evidence is disturbing to see.
The Times viewed photographs of one woman’s corpse that emergency responders discovered in the rubble of a besieged kibbutz with dozens of nails driven into her thighs and groin.
The Times also viewed a video, provided by the Israeli military, showing two dead Israeli soldiers at a base near Gaza who appeared to have been shot directly in their vaginas.
Lol, you don’t get to choose to not pay taxes. You either own nothing and are unemployed, or you are a child.
Such a hilarious statement to think you can just fight the IRS.

Ok now you’re just being an ass
In a thread defending a country committing genocide, I guess it might be difficult for some people to understand the kind of principles it takes to leave a country that commits war crimes around the world.
But you do you.
Wow, if anyone is a child here it’s you.
You can avoid paying taxes by doing all of your business under the table. This might come as a shock to a child like you, but some people are making enough money and have enough connections to do just that.
What a scummy thing to do, most call it fraud.
I assume in that time you won’t be using roads or any public infrastructure then?
Or else what?
Probably nothing at all, potentially going to jail if you are caught evading tax, but that’s a few steps away I’m sure.
Just the knowledge that you’re taking from society without giving to society. If you hate your government so much that you’re prepared to commit tax fraud then I assume that you’ve done everything possible to leave, right? Which countries have you tried emigrating to out of interest?
You just stink of entitlement, that’s all :) x
Lol, you know nothing about me but okay.
There are plenty of reasons to avoid paying taxes. Only fools and children will change their actions based on what losers on the internet may think of them.
I agree. I don’t expect to change your behaviour, just felt like pointing out the shitty behaviour of letting others pay for the stuff you use when you should be paying for it too.
I know a small amount about you, that small amount consists of shitty behaviour. That’s about it :) x
It’s not just paying for stuff they use, it’s how much they’re paying and also the stuff that they don’t want be funded (like aid to Israel.)
For example, government funded housing programs don’t actually get better deals for their clients. It’s essentially a scam to funnel taxpayer money to landlords.
Another example would be medicare and medicaid. Because the industries are privately owned, taxpayers are wasting money to maximize profit for business owners.
I’m sorry that you pay into a system without understanding it, but that doesn’t make those who avoid it shitty people.
Do you think the disparity in wealth should grow, or shrink? Funneling taxpayer money to businesses maximizing profit is how the disparity in wealth grows.
If you don’t like it, maybe you should advocate for nationalizing industries that suck up taxpayer money.
If you live off the grid and support yourself completely then more power to you. Doesn’t sound like that’s the case though and you can’t simply decide to not pay tax because you disagree with SOME decisions the government makes. I’m not even from the US but I don’t like many decisions my government makes. I still pay tax though because it’s going to plenty of things I use and letting others pay my share is dickish behaviour. Me not agreeing with the military strategy or distribution of funds to healthcare is a separate issue and if you want to campaign to change that (or similar) that’s exactly what you should do (and again, more power to you).
