Legitimate ‘rape’?

Max Blumenthal – 30 July 2024

Everyone from Netanyahu’s son, Yair, to Israel’s Economy Minister Nir Barkat, to Justice Minister Yariv Levin, has chimed in to defend the right of soldiers to rape Palestinian prisoners. What was intended as a legal charade to demonstrate to the ICC that Israel could hold its soldiers accountable for crimes – in this case, the gang rape of a prisoner at the Sde Teiman concentration camp – has backfired and exposed the psychological sickness emanating from the heart of Jewish Israeli society.

The sadistic torture that has taken place at Sde Teiman and other Israeli dungeons was undeniably fueled by the state-led propaganda hoax accusing Hamas of “systemic sexual violence” on October 7. Legacy Western outlets like the NY Times, BBC, The Guardian, along with the voice of Israel’s “enlightened public,” Haaretz, legitimized the hoax, and have refused to retract or even correct reports that were comprehensively debunked. Thus, to the common Jewish Israeli, Hamas militants not only violated hundreds of women before butchering them for pleasure, they cruelly emasculated the Israeli male who supposedly conquered the land.

Behind the walls of Sde Teiman, the shadowy goon squad known as Force 100 has been tasked with restoring Zionist machismo by revenge-raping defenseless Palestinian men kidnapped from Gaza. All prisoners are “terrorists” in their minds, therefore anything is permissible. As Hanoch Milwidsky, a member of Knesset from the ruling Likud Party stated openly in a parliamentary debate, “If he is a [Hamas] Nukhba member, everything is legitimate to do him!”

The same media outlets that propagated the Hamas “mass rape” hoax are predictably downplaying the documented gang rape of a Palestinian prisoner. Haaretz has referred to the rape in a front page headline as mere “abuse.” Currently, there is nothing on the NY Times front page about the incident, while the Washington Post refers cryptically to “detainee abuse” in its coverage, which is buried at the bottom of its website. Prominent liberal Zionists, meanwhile, are pronouncing Israel’s “democracy” and its international image as the ultimate victims of the crisis, and not the Palestinians who have endured rape and torture at the hands of the occupation’s enforcers.

The war in Gaza suffocated the national protests against Netanyahu’s judicial reform plans, seemingly breathing new life into the PM’s career. But now, after nine months of blood-letting, the war is setting the stage for an existential civil meltdown if and when Netanyahu agrees to a ceasefire without scoring the “total victory” he’s promised. If that day comes, let it be recorded that the turning point was a violent Zionist riot in support of the right to rape Palestinian men.

MK Ahmad Tibi (TA’AL): To insert a stick in a person’s rectum, is that legitimate???

MK Hanoch Milwidsky (Likud): Yes! If he is a Nukhba everything is legitimate to do him!

Some of you have probably already heard about the events in Sde Teiman concentration camp today: MPs came to arrest soldiers suspected of sodomizing a Palestinian captive, the soldiers in the base revolted, refused to leave and threatened to take active action against the MPs. The idea of any soldier getting arrested for anything done to a Palestinian is incomprehensible to Israelis these days (even though the investigations are all cover-ups for the ICJ/ICC anyway), so the events caused a big outrage.

Right-winger reservist soldiers and members of government arrived at Sde Teiman to try and thwart the arrests. In this clip we see Likud Member of Knesset Hanoch Milwidsky announcing a “voting strike” in response to the attempts to arrest the rapist soldiers.

Violent mobs now invading a military court. Comes after mobs including law makers, soldiers rioted against police detaining soldiers suspected of abusing a prisoner while the Israeli parliament debated whether it was ok
29 July: on the gang rape of a Palestinian, BBC’s @YolandeKnell feeling the need to tell us the man gang raped by 9 Israeli soldiers was “said to have been a senior member of Hamas”
31 July: celebrating their victory as two of the soldiers is released.
2 August: The wife of an IDF rapist declares full support for her husband violently sødømizing Palestinians. He raped a prisoner until they were hospitalised with ruptured intestines, a severe injury to the anus, lungs, and broken ribs.
@zei_squirrel
An influential fanatical Zionist propagandist has just come out and admitted that Israel is engaged in actual systematic mass rape of Palestinians, and that they do it to those they know are innocent. He admits he was lied to by his own government, media and friends
31 July: Israeli reservist Meir Ben Shatrit, arrested and quickly released after sodomizing Palestinian detainees at Sde Teiman Prison, described his arrest as a sham. He stated that officers applauded him for his actions, implying he was only arrested for “doing their work.” “You feel they want to thank you, there were days when they applauded us.”
30 July: Israelis were actually trying to break into the building where Israeli soldiers, who were accused of gang-raping a Gazan hostage to the point of paralysis, were being held, in order to try and FREE THEM. These protests have been named ‘The Right To Rape Protests’.

The 2 Palestinian detainee who were tortured and raped in Sde Teman concentration camp were officially announced dead today, their names are Islam Al-Sarsawi, 42, from Shujaiyya District (Gaza) and Omar Abdel Aziz Jneid, 26, from Jabalia (Gaza)

HE DEFENDS R-PE The Israeli lawmaker from the ruling Likud party, Hanoch Milwidsky, said that “everything is legitimate” when asked whether it was justified to rape Palestinian prisoners. “To insert a stick in a person’s rectum, is that legitimate?” asked Ahmad Tibi, a Palestinian lawmaker during a meeting.

“Yes! If he is a Nukhba everything is legitimate to do him,” screamed Milwidsky back. There has been widespread reporting that Palestinian prisoners are being tortured in Israeli prisons.

The United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees (Unrwa) said it received reports of mass ill-treatment of Palestinians taken captive from Gaza by Israeli forces, including detainees being urinated on and made to act like animals, and children being attacked by dogs.

A report, released on Palestinian Prisoners’ Day in April, warned that for the thousands of prisoners kept in detention by the Israeli army, physical, sexual and psychological abuse was routine. “This included being subjected to beatings while made to lie on a thin mattress on top of rubble for hours without food, water or access to a toilet, with their legs and hands bound with plastic ties. Several detainees reported being forced into cages and attacked by dogs. Some released detainees, including a child, had dog bite wounds on their body,”
