Israel needs to kill every Hamas terrorist. I can't describe here my anger and disgust at what happened. I was a Marine grunt in Vietnam and an officer in the Army in the 1st Gulf War and I didn't see anything that compares to this and I saw some bad stuff. I saw on Fox News Digital where one of the female hostages released states that when she came to after her capture she was with a Palestinian Family. Think about that and understand there are very few of them that are innocent. They hate Jews and Israel. Biden is a weak sister who has no idea what's going on in the world much less Israel. I don't know who is running the country but it ain't him. My advice is to turn Gaza into an A&P parking lot
Totalitarians - and Islam is fundamentally totalitarian - loathe women as women own power.
What these “men” (scare quotes definitely of Western culture) did differs only in degree from what Western progressives do daily with the constant celebration of abortion and gays and lesbians and the brand-new assault on women that is trans.
The left - and all “multiculturalists”hate - women.
The most unfortunate part is that women refuse to recognize this and, by refusing, enable & excuse it. Which is why no “women’s” groups condemn it.
Women (and men who love women) everywhere should take note. Hamas and those who support them do not have women’s freedom and interests at heart. It’s puzzling to me why so many younger, college aged adults in the US have been swayed by these deplorable ideologies. Hamas would wage the same type of destruction against the women here, if given the opportunity…no doubt. You are spot on in your analysis in this article of what drove the sexual torture and dehumanization of Israeli women on 10/7, and your ending sums it up best – “But Jewish is the adjective. Women is the noun.”
Incredible that people in the West are defending these monsters, to the point of saying the murder, rape and mutilation of Jewish girls and women didn't happen. Do you have wives and daughters? Or how about the women and gays and trans who actually are calling for the extermination of Israeli, have you ever lived under Sharia Law? You wouldn't last long. Every time an atrocity is raised that Hamas has done, these mentally afflicted westerners have to come back with some comparison to the crimes of the evil Jews--or rather, Zionists, because now there is an important distinction being made between Jews who allow themselves to be exterminated and those who dare to fight back. I guess Israel is the only nation on earth that, when it is repeatedly attacked, is condemned for defending itself. Yes, Hamas wanted to send a message to women, and it was a message inspired by religion, there's no other way to put it. Anyone with open eyes knows this to be true. They recorded their atrocities. They wanted the world to know and incredibly, people still defend them, saying they didn't do it--it's the Jews fault. A story as old as time; it's the woman's fault she got raped, she was asking for it, she is just a whore, she was tempting the men, the men couldn't help themselves. Shame on her! Shame on Israel! Let's teach them a lesson. Palestinians in Gaza were seen celebrating what Hamas did, parading the bodies through the streets, screaming Allah Akbar, praising God. I have written about this, having lived in Egypt for three years and getting out under dangerous circumstances during the pandemic, helping a woman escape from a mob of violent men.
Those who deny the truth are Jews haters. They just hate Jews, plain and simple. They would rather see Hamas win; a "government" that kills anyone who does not bow to fundamentalist Islam, than see Israel succeed, a democratic state (and yes, a flawed one, what else is new) where Jews, Christians, Bedouin, Arabs, gays, and people of all faiths, live, vote, succeed in government positions, as professors, scientists, doctors, lawyers, you name it. And yet, Israel is the evil one. The hypocrisy is astounding since any country can be picked apart and vilified in this manner, not least of all the United States. What's the obsession with Israel?
Let’s not agree that it happened. One of the main reasons I subscribe at Substack is because mainstream media especially including NYT have become lapdogs and mouthpieces for the Deep State which happens to include some parts of the Israeli government. The atrocities committed by the Israeli government over decades far exceed what might have happened on 10/07
"By failing to speak out and press less radical Muslim leaders".... pointless IMO, because as you said earlier "radical Islamist culture is incompatible with Western society". Drop the "radical" - Islamic culture is fundamentally at odds with Western society.
The Palestinians are fed a diet of genocidal hatred of the West, Israel and Jews from birth and are taught to despise Western women. It is the same phenomenon that results in the rapes of women by Muslim immigrants un Europe.
The New York Times has been anti Israel since 10-7. That this piece came out in the NYTimes must have been a real debate in the woke NYT offices. See the James Bennet article last week in the Economist. These despicable atrocities happened and the perpetrators filmed it on their Go Pros , and were-are proud of their revolting actions. Many civilian Gazans participated and many more danced and celebrated back in Gaza. Israel will not ever allow this again.
Hamas and by default most of the Palestinians are part of the uncivilized world. Whether you agree or disagree with Zion, Israel is part of the civilized world. All these morons marching in the streets for Palestine should be sent to the uncivilized world to live out their days. This war is nothing more than civilized vs uncivilized and if you are find yourself on the side of Palestine you have no place in a civilized world.
Thank you, Mr. Berenson, for speaking the hard truth. Too many try to whitewash the atrocities and far too many try and ignore the harsh reality that you so poignantly post on your Unreported Truths site. Thank you for posting this particular piece.
Horrible stuff. But I am haunted by something else as well. I believe that Mossad knew in advance what Hamas was planning. Mossad may be the best intelligence unit in the world and so it is more than likely they knew the Oct. 7 attack was coming. Which leads to my further horror: Israel let this happen to their people.

It's as if the filth fermenting for so long beneath the surface has finally come out. At last, people are free to express their true feelings toward Jews and it's unleashed a tidal wave. The question is why? Why so many Jew haters?

Alex, there is no question here. This was evil. And absolutely needs light after light brought to it. No question.

And yet we have their supporters in our midst, cities, campuses,
I want to throw up. And so much rage. The rest of what I am feeling I can’t commit to words.

Barbarians might be too gentle of a description for these terrorists.

I have no words. The most powerful post I have read in years. 🙏
