Remember Rape Spring? Well it was more of a civil war than the military police, the military prosecutor, the army, or Israeli media or politicians let on. I’ll update when the translation is published, but in the meantime here’s the short of it👇🧵

archive.md/aMLyb Turns out that the videos that were published by the Rape Revolters were conveniently edited to leave out the parts where they assaulted military police, and in masks & full military gear threatened to kill them while aiming their weapons unless they release their rapey comrades.

The channel that loves Netanyahu even more than it loves genocide reports an "expert opinion" on the Sde Teiman rape by the guy who's already drafted questionable bills of health for the PM himself (): "Self-insertion."

Let's recall that the doctor at the scene, Yoel Donchin, already confirmed that his and the medical team's opinion at the time was that the injuries were "manmade" caused by "violence." At no point does he or the interviewer deny they're discussing rape.

Following the rape riots, a news segment for the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation, called- I kid you not- 'This is Sodom', featured both Sde Teiman star doctors: Dr. Weeping Torture Launderer, Yoel Donchin, and Mr. Eichmann, Yechiel Barilan. I bring you the highlights👇🧵 After Dr. Donchin pretends to be mysterious, he admits that the reason he felt the severe injuries must be reported was because he assumed that somehow the zip-tied hostages, who get a beating for a mere slouch in their stress positions, did it to each other.

MK for the Likud party, Amit Halevi is proposing a law:
"Bill for the protection of Israeli public figures against the activities of the International Criminal Court in The Hague against the State of Israel, 2024"

Here are the main points👇🧵

"The purpose of this law is to protect IDF soldiers, elected officials, public servants, and any other person, who may be harmed by ICC activity, due to a matter relating to an act or oversight, as part of their work, service, or assistance to the State of Israel or its allies."

I read this @nytimes article so you don’t have too👇🧵


The first observation to make is about this rather bland title, burying the lead: Israel’s torture, sexual violence, and rape, which it committs systematically in the Sde Teiman concentration camp. archive.is/GQG3F

Inside the Base Where Israel Has Detained Thousands of Gazans Since Israel invaded Gaza, the Sde Teiman military base has filled with blindfolded, handcuffed detainees, held without charge or legal representation. The 3400 words that @AdalahNY is referring to are often spent making excuses for why these abducted civilians had to be stripped, beaten, and tortured. It’s done so many times throughout the text that I’ll only include a few examples.
Fadi, you see, could have been KHamaaas.
Fadi Bakr, a law student from Gaza City, said he was captured on Jan. 5 by Israeli soldiers near his family home. Displaced by fighting earlier in the war, Mr. Bakr, 25, had returned to his neighborhood to search for flour, only to get caught in the middle of a firefight and wounded, he said.  The Israelis found him bleeding after the fighting stopped, he said. They stripped him naked, confiscated his phone and savings, beat him repeatedly and accused him of being a militant who had survived the battle, he said.
The circumstances of Mr. Bakr’s arrest mirror those of other former detainees interviewed by The Times.  Several said they had been suspected of militant activity because soldiers had encountered them in areas the military thought were harboring Hamas fighters, including hospitals, U.N. schools or depopulated neighborhoods like Mr. Bakr’s.

After almost 8 months of atrocity porn that has completely fallen apart under scrutiny, @AP comes out with… 🥁… Two debunked ZAKA stories!

A short thread of @PolkAwards🏆and @PulitzerPrizes🏅worthy material👇🧵

apnews.com/article/israel… AP still manages to whitewash ZAKA. You see, it’s not that they were deliberately lying to pad their fundraiser pockets and stir genocidal mania. They were just helpful idiots, unequipped for the job 🥺👉👈
“It’s not that I invented a story,” Otmazgin told The Associated Press in an interview, detailing the origins of his initial explosive claim — one of two by ZAKA volunteers about sexual violence that turned out to be unfounded.  “I couldn’t think of any other option” other than the teen having been sexually assaulted, he said. “At the end, it turned out to be different, so I corrected myself.”  But it was too late.
As some of the first people on the scene, ZAKA volunteers offered testimony of what they saw that day. Those words have helped journalists, Israeli lawmakers and U.N. investigators paint a picture of what occurred during Hamas’ attack. (ZAKA, a volunteer-based group, does not do forensic work. The organization has been a fixture at Israeli disaster sites and scenes of attacks since it was founded in 1995. Its specific job is to collect bodies in keeping with Jewish law.)  Still, it took ZAKA months to acknowledge the accounts were wrong, allowing them to proliferate. And the fallout from th...

Starting a new Rafah thread 👇🧵 because this one is getting long.

It includes the two last weeks that preceded the invasion and the first two days, culminating in Israel’s bombing and taking over of the Rafah crossing. We start this morning with Israel hoisting its flags in the Rafah crossing.

"the Bedouin community, descendants of Muslim Arab shepherds" 🧐 A bizarrely written article, but nevertheless makes points about- what it doesn't name as- Israel's ethnic cleansing of the indigenous Palestinian-Bedouin communities inside Israel. So here's a thread 👇🧵 The Bedouins of the Naqab are part and parcel of the diverse tapestry which is the indigenous Palestinian people. They have the same collective claim to land, self-determination, and reparations.

Israel's health ministry is directly complicit in Israel's systematic torture of Palestinians that the army abducts and stashes in concentration camps.

And guess what? This isn't a new phenomena. facebook.com/noonessparerib…

Why is @opiniojuris publishing a known member of a genocidal colonial organization during a genocide? Surely editor and ICC prosecutor Special Adviser on War Crimes @kevinjonheller knows this amounts to incitement to genocide under the Genocide Convention.
opiniojuris.org/2024/04/01/a-r… Reminder: War Crimes Advisor to the ICC Prosecutor and editor of OpinioJuris, Kevin Jon Heller, allowed genocide incitement on his international law magazine during an active genocide.

This useful idiot clownery is coming up a lot in the past hour, so let's review the law before it becomes a whole-day event where we could have been instead supporting South Africa in its leadership role exemplifying accountability mechanisms during genocide 👇🧵 In Dec South Africa put its nationals on notice, citing the Regulation of the Foreign Military Assistance Act, 1998 (Act No. 15 of 1998), stating:
1- if you didn't apply for permit, you're breaking domestic law
2- you may be committing international crimes

So a couple rogue UN Rapporteurs, Edwards and Tidball-Binz, decided to "demand accountability for [Oct 7] victims of sexual torture" citing debunked allegations.
Are there repercussions for Rapporteurs reproducing incitement to genocide @UNHumanRights?
ohchr.org/en/press-relea… Guess which two UN Rapporteurs have yet to say anything about Israel’s systematic policy of sexual violence as a weapon of war during genocide?
Alarmed by the fact that the Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, Ms. Alice Jill Edwards; and the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, Mr. Morris Tidball-Binz, have, as of yet, failed to address and contextualise the escalating instances of torture and ill-treatment endured by Palestinians, including those that involved sexual violence and those that have culminated to killings, the urgent appeal urged the aforementioned mandate-holders, whose silence amid the ongoing genocide have been deafening…

Not only is Netanyahu saying he will defy @CIJ_ICJ provisional measures, at around 5:30 he repeats his "children of light/darkness" statement as if that's not one of the genocidal statements highlighted in the South African application. He also quotes the following biblical verse at the end:

"then shall they dwell in their own land which I gave to My servant Jacob. And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell safely."

Confession “I am 62 years old. They told me “no, you need to find out for us. Where is Hamas and where are the hostages.” When I told them I did not know, they shot my leg. Afterwards they amputated my leg. They made me sign a paper saying that my leg was not functioning.”
