Hamas shot female Israeli soldiers 'in the crotch, intimate parts and breasts' as part of 'a systemic genital mutilation': IDF reveals many victims' corpses still had agonised looks on their faces

 



Hamas terrorists shot female Israeli soldiers 'in the crotch, intimate parts and breasts' as part of a 'systematic genital mutilation, the IDF has claimed.

Some of the female victims of the gunmen who stormed across the Israeli border from Gaza on October 7 were left with agonised looks on their faces after they died, according to an Israeli unit that helped bless bodies of those killed in the massacre.

Army reservist Shari Mendes said many bodies of female victims, both civilian and military, arrived 'in bloody shredded rags or just in underwear.'

Mendes was speaking at a UN event in New York on Monday titled 'Hear Our Voices: Sexual and Gender-Based Violence in the October 7 Hamas terror attack'.

She said:  'Our team commander saw several female soldiers who were shot in the crotch, intimate parts, vagina, or shot in the breast,' said army reservist Shari Mendes, whose unit helped bless the bodies of people killed during Hamas' October 7 incursion.

'This seemed to be a systematic genital mutilation of a group of victims,' added the soldier, whose unit at the Shura Army Base prepares bodies for burial. 

'These women arrived with their eyes opened, their mouths in grimaces, their fists clenched,' she added. 

'The soldiers that we dealt with had expressions of agony on their faces still. 

'I remember one young woman whose arm was broken in so many places it was difficult for us to lay her arm in the burial shroud, her leg too. 

'In her case the entire left side of her body was shredded, torn apart, most likely by a grenade.'

Mendes said that she and her unit are forced to make a decision to not show the families of dead soldiers their bodies, as Hamas' mutilation of the bodies 'was an objective in their murders.' 

'Some were shot in the heads were bashed in so badly that their brains were spilling out. 

'Some were shot in the heads so many times at close range that their heads were almost blown off.'

Mendes said the scene that lay before her as she arrived at Shura Army Base a day after Hamas killed 1,200 people during its incursion was 'unimaginable in scale.' 

'Body bags were piled to the ceiling, lining the corridors in every room. Refrigerator trucks were waiting outside, also full.

“Body bags just kept coming in all shapes and sizes. Many were oozing liquids and the floors were wet. 

'The smell of death was already unbearable. It is impossible to overemphasize the number of bodies we were dealing with, the sense of shock and despair.'

Hamas have also been accused of treating living hostages badly as well, with the US claiming that the terror group refused to release ten female hostages because they do not want them to reveal what they have been subjected to while being held captive. 

State Department spokesperson Matt Miller said that this was the reason the week-long ceasefire, which came after Hamas agreed to release over 100 hostages over several days, ended.

The official said on Monday: 'It seems that one of the reasons Hamas doesn't want to turn women over that they've been holding hostage, and the reason this pause fell apart, is they don't want those women to be able to talk about what happened to them during their time in custody.'

One brave woman... against seven cowards: Astonishing moment hostage Amit Soussana fought Hamas gunmen as they abducted her on October 7


 


This is the moment a fearless Israeli woman fought to free herself from seven Hamas gunmen as they dragged her back to Gaza during their ruthless October 7 attacks.

Amit Soussana, 40, found herself alone and surrounded by armed attackers with no way of defending herself as they marched her towards the border, having torn her from Kfar Aza kibbutz.

But any sense of bending to the will of her captors in the hope of receiving less brutal treatment was overridden by her staunch refusal to go quietly.

The astonishing footage, captured by a security camera according to Times of Israel, showed how one terrorist lifted the Israeli lawyer onto his back, only to tumble to the ground as she kicked and wriggled against him. 

Holding her down, the attackers can be seen slapping Amit as they attempted to wrap her in a shawl or blanket, but still she fought back, twisting and kicking. 

Eventually the captors were forced to bundle her into a car to get her back to Gaza as they were unable to drag her on foot - a testament to the sheer bravery and determination of Amit.

Amit lived alone in Kfar Aza and was an easy target for Hamas attackers, who discovered her hiding in a safe room in her property.

The lawyer, who works for the law firm Luzzatto & Luzzatto, was ill at the time of her capture and was recovering at home with a fever when Hamas stormed her kibbutz. 

More than 1,200 Israelis were slaughtered on October 7 irrespective of whether they tried to flee or resist against their attackers, but Amit was one of several hostages who were dragged into Gaza and spent almost eight weeks days living in captivity.

But she was released by Hamas along with 21-year-old Mia Schem, who was kidnapped from the Nova music festival, last week just one day before the week-long truce between Israel and Hamas expired and hostilities resumed.

Footage of their release showed how they were bundled out of a car and handed over to Red Cross workers close to the Israel-Gaza border as a huge group of Palestinians surrounded them, jeering and chanting.   

Speaking on the morning of her return to Israel, relative Michael Cohen said: 'I was always hopeful she would come back but there was terrible tension. This has been a difficult, crazy time. I can't wait to give her a hug.'



A climate summit??? Kamala and Kerry flew on SEPARATE jets... the host is a Sultan oil boss... and it's all held in Dubai - where they air condition the desert. What a charade!

 

The United Nations' 28th climate change conference is melting down faster than an iceberg in the Arctic.

It's a collection of the world's rich and influential who've set out to save all of humanity by getting rid of fossil fuels. But apparently, the engines of this international powwow don't run well on bull manure.

John Kerry, the failed presidential candidate now moonlighting as President Biden's 'special presidential envoy for climate', is leading the American delegation for the COP28 summit.

True to form, Kerry, our Bay State plutocrat, reportedly jetted in on a carbon-belching private plane.

And Kamala Harris, our flailing vice president, deemed the meeting urgent enough to justify the greenhouse gases necessary to fuel Air Force Two and fly her to the lavish affair as well.

Would it be too much to ask them to ride share?

And the location of COP28: Dubai.

Yes, you read that right: Dubai.

Soros Propping Up Hamas thru Well-Funded NGOs

 

What A real little "chutzpa'nik"

 

John Kerry "PASSES Stinky GAS" While Discussing Climate Change!

 


John Kerry might need to cut back on his own emissions.

The Biden Administration’s climate envoy was discussing US policy on coal power plants at the Climate Change Conference in Dubai on Sunday when Kerry unleashed a burst of wind energy.

The former secretary of state was speaking next to Becky Anderson, Managing Editor of CNN Abu Dhabi, and Fatih Birol, Executive director of the International Energy Agency, when a Bronx cheer suddenly erupted midsentence.

“There shouldn’t be any more coal-fired power plants permitted anywhere in the world,” Kerry began before launching into an anti-coal diatribe.

“I find myself getting more and more militant because I do not understand how adults who are in a position of responsibility can be avoiding responsibility for taking away those things that are killing people on a daily basis…”

Before Kerry can complete his thought, the crude sound of passing gas can be heard over the microphone. The crowd breaks into applause, apparently oblivious to the crude theatrics.

CNN’s Anderson — sitting to Kerry’s right and within striking distance of a potential bodily function — quickly jerks her head aside and inconspicuously places her hand to her mouth, possibly in the event of any stench permeating the climate panel.

Birol, the energy executive, simply nods his head and shuffles his eyes in rapt contemplation.

“And the reality is that the climate crisis and the health crisis are one and the same,” Kerry continued, unabated.

Larry O’Connor of Townhall Media said Kerry’s alleged flatulence was an embarrassment to the US.

“The biggest problem is, during this entire exchange, representing us, The United States of America, he ripped a fart out,” O’Connor said. “He let loose with flatulence on an international stage.”

The pundit said the evidence was overwhelming and Kerry must answer for his actions.

“He should lose his job immediately,” he said. “John Kerry farted.”

Israel weighing plan to flood Hamas tunnels


 Israel has assembled a system of large pumps it could use to flood Hamas’ vast network of tunnels under the Gaza Strip with seawater, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing US officials.

The report said that such a tactic could destroy the tunnels and drive the terrorists from their underground refuge but also threaten Gaza’s water supply.

The IDF finished assembling large seawater pumps roughly one mile north of the Al-Shati refugee camp around the middle of last month, the officials said.

Each of at least five pumps can draw water from the Mediterranean Sea and move thousands of cubic meters of water per hour into the tunnels, flooding them within weeks.

The Wall Street Journal report said that Israel presented the plan to the United States last month. US officials believe that Israel hasn’t made a final decision to move ahead with the plan, nor has it ruled it out.

On Sunday, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said that since the beginning of ground operations in the Gaza Strip, IDF soldiers have located over 800 shafts to Hamas’ underground tunnels.

Last month, security forces locatedapproximately 35 tunnel shafts in neighborhoods in Gaza.

Egypt in the past used the tactic of flooding Hamas terror tunnels which were dug beneath the Egypt-Gaza Rafah border crossing.

Israel Raises Travel Alert for Western Europe and Other Regions


 Israel’s National Security Council on Monday raised its travel alert levels for Western Europe, South America, Australia and Russia.

The update comes amid increased terror threats against Israelis traveling abroad nearly two months into Israel’s war with Hamas, dubbed “Operation Swords of Iron,” which was launched after the bloody massacre of Oct. 7. The last NSC security update was on Nov. 3.

“Since the beginning of the war, increased efforts have been detected on the part of Iran and its proxies, as well as on the part of Hamas and elements of global jihad, to attack Israeli and Jewish targets around the world,” according to the NSC statement.

The statement also highlighted “a continuous and significant increase in incitement, attempted attacks and widespread manifestations of anti-Semitism in many countries.”

Antisemitic Protesters Outside Concert Featuring Avraham Fried and Eitan Katz

 



  A special evening of song and inspiration was disrupted by pro-Hamas protesters Sunday. As is seen in a video, the event at the Kings Theater was disrupted by vicious antisemites. Sickeningly one protester on a megaphone was chanting the words of Kaddish.


The concert featured Beri Weber, Avraham Fried, and Eitan Katz. Also renowned speakers Rabbi Shais Taub, Rabbi Moshe Weinberger, and Rabbi Eli Mansour.

One Twitter user posted that the protesters were recruited by employees of the theater, as a protest against Jews. A Jewish man in the video is heard praising the NYPD for being well-prepared to secure the area, by cordoning off a block to keep the protesters confined, as well as a drone flying overhead.

Satmar Rebbe Calls for ALL Yeshivos to violate the "Three Oaths"

 

The entire book, Vayoel Moshe , written by the late Satmar Rebbe, R' Yoel Teitelbaum, the founder of Satmar Chassidus, is based on the violation of the "Three Oaths." 

To be sure this "violation" is not mentioned in the entire Mishna Torah written by the Rambam, and not mentioned in the entire Shulchan Aruch. In addition, in the very place where the Talmud discusses this (a few lines) in Kesubois 111, not one of the commentaries like the Maharsha, Rif, Ran etc, has anything to say on the subject.

Be that as it may, this is not the time or place to discuss this non-issue.

However, one of the "Three Oaths, in which the Vayoel Moshe spends an enormous amount of time on, is the oath of התגרות באומות meaning a Jew in Galut is prohibited from antagonizing the Gentiles! 

Of course in the sefer, the Satmar Rebbe, chastises the Zionists for violating this oath, saying that by having established a State they violated this oath, which is of course not what actually happened, as most of the Gentile governments themselves approved the establishment of the State in 1948, and one of those countries was none other than Russia! But let's not get confused by the facts!

The present Satmar Rebbe, R' Aron of Monroe, an Obama lover and who asked his entire kehilla to write letters to Congress to support the Iran deal, is now asking ALL yeshivois to defy the New York State Department of Education.

I am not going to debate here the merits of his arguments, but what I would like to point out is, what about the violation of התגרות באומות?Why doesn't it apply here?

Now, there is nothing wrong, of course, with debating the issues with NY officials, but that is not what he is asking, he is asking all yeshivois to DEFY the NY State Education Department! 

With this call to "defy" he is also smacking his brother, who he hates with a passion, R' Zalman Leib, Satmar Rebbe of Williamsburg, who signed up and agreed to comply with the New York Education Standards, since it's all about "the Benjamins." 

The "prohibition" of the "three oaths" which the Satmar Rebbe z"l said is  יהרג ואל יעבור, that one is obligated to give his life in order not to violate is only apparently addressed to Zionists but is not meant for themselves!

Know that what is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

PS The יהרג ואל יעבור only applies to the three cardinal sins, "Murder, Adultery" and Idolatry " but Satmar added another one "Zionism."
