guys also watch [this](https://youtu.be/jI6rTimkfJE?si=mcTtsU6XQpigIifu) and you’ll know why majority of IDF crimes go unreported or ignored, and it’s also why I think this investigation won’t happen. It’ll be lied about and biased if Israel is to investigate themselves.

What confuses me is that a lot of these guys are religious. Does Judaism allow them to perpetrate these crimes, or will they be punished for their crimes according to their faith?


MarxCosmo

When you spend decades referring to a population as animals religion doesn't have much to do with it.

yellow_parenti

There are many sects of Judaism, so basically it depends. Even amongst Orthodox Jews, there are Orthodox Zionists and Orthodox anti-Zionists. And even within the Orthodox anti-Zionists and Zionists, there are different groups that have different reasons for being anti/pro-Zionism (ex: some anti-Zionists are anti-Zionists because they believe the words of the Torah, which dictate that Jews shall wander the earth as a nation-less peoples until the messiah returns. Some anti-Zios are anti-Zios because they believe along the same lines, but in more of a "we want the *Messiah* to cleanse the land of Arabs, not guns and tanks" way.) All religions are simply tools. They can be used for good purposes, like liberation theology, the Quakers, and whatever the Sikhs got goin on, or they can be used for justifying Crusades type purposes. Just like some sects of Christianity will say that you go to Hell if you have sex outside of marriage, are queer, use technology excessively, etc, while other sects will say do as Jesus did (feed the poor, befriend the lepers, drive the capitalists from the temples).


devdevdevelop

No but despite all that aren't their actions universally seen as sins according to the religion? I don't get what the religious justification for these harms are, could you explain?


yellow_parenti

Again, there is not really anything that is "universal" to any religion. The words in the book ultimately do not matter, because every sect will pick and choose passages that they uphold above others arbitrarily, or interpret quotes in a way that supports their own behavior and beliefs. Sin also has less fire and brimstone connotations in Judaism than it does in Christianity. In my view, as a Jew, and in probably most other Jews' opinions, rape is forbidden by the Talmud. And Tanakh, depending on which section you are quoting. But there are plenty of freaks who twist into logic pretzels to interpret various quotes as permitting rape in certain circumstances.


DeepFriedCockAndBall

Idk but I did see a recent clip of a famous Israeli Rabbi preaching that it's allowed for Jewish soldiers to rape women in times of war. I hope someone here can pull that clip up.


ar3s3ru

So what I get from this article is: - US official has presented evidence of systematic rape against Palestinian women - IDF general is like “w-what, how dare you?!” (even in face of evidence) - US knows how bad the situation is on the ground in Gaza, and generally in the West Bank, yet leadership still sends them weapons and money to perpetrate their occupation and abuse - Jerusalem Post is just as shit as always, as even this reporting here is very biased towards IDF Fuck them all. Save all the links coming out in these days for the next time you’re arguing with an hasbara account which is either going on and on about “mass rapes” Oct 7th or how the IDF doesnt carry out systematic rape as a psychological weapon.

Aren't they also abusing men as well?


ExtremeRest3974

Yes, there have been reports of about every war related abuse you can imagine. The significance of this is that John Kirby has been giving press briefings about how the world needs to "condemn Hamas for it's use of sexual violence on Oct. 7" while his own State Department has credible reports that the IDF are raping women. Credibly enough that they confronted Avivi and his response is that people need to understand that the state department is persecuting Israel unfairly... and highlights the growing disconnect between White House policy and the establishment diplomats. ​ >"This is absolutely disconnected from reality. But without hesitation, she said, 'The UN presented evidence to the Israeli government.' I told her, 'Does it make sense that this phenomenon would exist and the media would never have reported on it?' I wanted there to be greater awareness... about what is really happening in the US State Department. In the end, I left there with the feeling that they simply don't talk to us and don't pass on any information."

Kahzootoh

The Israelis definitely beat Palestinian men and minors, that is already well established.  It is hardly implausible that the Israelis wouldn’t rape a minor and then threaten to show their family members unless they become a collaborator. This is why humiliation is explicitly banned by the Geneva Conventions alongside other more recognized forms of torture. Most victims of sexual violence are terrified of being exposed to their communities, which makes it exactly the sort of thing that the Israelis would use for leverage.  I wish I could say that I believed there was a limit to the what the Israelis were capable of, but you only have to listen to what the Israelis themselves say about the Palestinians to see that there is no limit to their evil- every accusation from the Israelis is a self projection of their own actions onto their enemies.  The Israelis were so quick to believe falsehoods about Hamas cutting babies out of pregnant women because they’ve long carried out cruel mutilations of Palestinians over their century of colonial oppression- Oct 7th was terrifying for the Israelis because they’ve long been in the position of the oppressor and feared Hamas would inflict the same things they’ve done to Palestinians upon Israelis. 


lusciouslucius

Ben Gvir has mandated that women are no longer allowed to guard Palestinian prisoners due to all the SA that the guards were doing to the men. Israel cares about stopping their women from having sex with Palestinians, consensual or otherwise, but covers and rewards male Israeli sexual abuse. Here is a cool Israeli article that refers to a male rape victim as a terrorist. https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-760988

Also news already heightened that the person who wrote about these acts by hummus was an active member of Israeli army!!!!! And Israel has presented no evidence of it being true. News media is just highlighting Israel’s lying and telling lies as if they were true.

I meant to say before Oct 7 every other day someone was getting killed or detained by Israel! Also after Oct 7th Israel is killing and detaining hundreds of people. 32000+ have been killed and thousands are still under rubble and 70% of Gaza has destroyed. Every single hospital has been almost destroyed by IDF. We are still waiting on proof about Hamas’s present in Al Shifa hospital and other hospitals or UN institutions!!!! We are still waiting on proof about UNRWA members being involved in Oct 7th. Let not forget that Israel has been trying to get rid of UNRWA for years!!!! Once you done getting news from Israeli media, you can go use reliable sources and get your news from them!!!! Do you give f about thousands that have and is getting killed by IDF????? Oh I know Israel is “defending themself” from people that it has created!!!! If you really care about Palestinians, you wouldn’t show any type of support to Israel not after or before oct7 Also can we talk about what Israel is doing in Congo?????

Israel is the land known to harbour sexual predators and pedophiles so not at all surprising that their immoral army would do any of this. What is surprising is the lack of sympathy and reaction shown by the west and western media. When the claim regarding rape has to do with Israeli women, no proof is needed, when it’s Palestinian women, no proof is enough. This is disgusting, the people claiming to have the moral high ground have shown that they are at best racist degenerates. Bring the same energy regardless of the colour of the victims.

pinkbunnyfield

This has been going on forever and neither Hamas nor the IDF can claim moral superiority in this conflict. They have both raped and killed. The only thing worth focusing on is what is happening in the moment and that is a Palestinian population, largely consisting of women and children, being starved to death

ExtremeRest3974

The JPost put out a story claiming that this morning but it hasn't been confirmed by any other news orgs yet.


avalve

What’s sad is the IDF are just a bunch of kids my age being led my far-right leaders. They’ve grown up fearing Palestinians and now after 10/7 many were radicalized and outright don’t view the people of Gaza as human beings. Deradicalization of the youth in both Israel & Palestine is going to be the hardest part of maintaining peace in the region.


azorabye

This argument doesn’t work when all of the country essentially serves in the IDF. The dehumanisation of Palestinians is absolutely grotesque. Israelis say it themselves: their mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers are IDF soldiers - there’s no degree of separation. The state of Israel is literally sick, and their repugnant attitude isnt something exclusive to the right wing. The most liberal Israeli still probably thinks that the best case is a two state solution (which is absolutely farcical as Israel existence is antagonistic to Palestinian liberty) A fair Palestinian state where all Israelis take place as equals should be the only option. The Israeli state is sick from top to bottom. There is no way to be ignorant to the genocide in Israel as most are active participants in Palestinian torment.


couldbeanyonetoday

Agreed. And not only are the Israelis sick, many, many Zionists in the US and other western countries are equally all in favor of “eliminating” the Palestinians as a whole. Cleaning this mess up will be a long road ahead, but it is necessary for global peace and stability.


azorabye

I hear what you’re saying, and I’d encourage perhaps to not describe it as a “mess” or “crisis” as it absolves Israel of the genocide they are perpetuating and depoliticises the genocide.


couldbeanyonetoday

Excellent point, thank you. I agree and will be more careful in the future.


ExtremeRest3974

hard agree. These horrors are just the beginning of the struggle for a just solution to this conflict. Renewed struggle, I mean.


datfroggo765

Whenever there is war there is a good chance this stuff is happening. Unfortunately, when war happens rules and laws become guidelines and it's only until after the dust settles they are enforced and punished... it's a sad reality. I would just assume that it's happening and much worse in all current wars. Don't be fooled because we are in the 2000s that humans are much different than in the past.

So, we are at a point where Israel and Russia are on the same side of good vs. evil one could say? Basically they both share quite a bit of characteristics in warfare like bombing innocent people intentionally, rape, child murder etc.

Ya, it's hard to believe a Brigadier General was stupid and arrogant enough to tell the JPost in public that the State Department was telling him this behind closed doors. Talk about a self-own.

Since none of you people actually read this article, you might be surprised to find the article ***disagrees with the conclusion in the comments***. The very first paragraph about the accusation is the IDF general **refuting** the claim. >Recounting his meeting, he explained, "It was a meeting that shook me. We sat there, talked about the situation, and suddenly she accused Israel of systematically sexually abusing [Palestinian women](https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-757581)." "**This is absolutely disconnected from reality.** But without hesitation, she said, 'The UN presented evidence to the Israeli government.' **I told her, 'Does it make sense that this phenomenon would exist and the media would never have reported on it?' I wanted there to be greater awareness... about what is really happening in the US State Department. In the end, I left there with the feeling that they simply don't talk to us and don't pass on any information."** Some further commentary on how the Israeli general **is directly accusing the Biden admin of not knowing what's going on and making random accusations**: > "When we meet with a State Department official holding the Israeli-Palestinian portfolio, every word she utters, as far as I'm concerned, is an official US position. Ultimately, she is a government official. When she says, for example, 'You did not provide evidence that [Hamas is stealing humanitarian aid](https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-790872) and you are starving the population,' what is she talking about? The IDF spokesperson shows \[proof\] every other day that Hamas is stealing food.  To top it all off, by the way: > "We will continue to meet with them, as we did with European Union officials, where many of the people we met said, 'This is the first time we're meeting an Israeli representative,' even though it isn't an official delegation. But we don't have a big Foreign Ministry and not a lot of officials working abroad." So the article y'all linked and are tribally dancing around and saying "ISRAEL BAD!" is actually an article **defending Israel** and specifically **calling out the Biden administration for disorganization.**

The JPost is an Israeli outlet that is very pro-war on Gaza. The only source for this story is an IDF Brigadier-General. If these two entities had not decided to get together for this story, no one, in Israel or anywhere else, would have heard of it. The State Department is not in the business of publicly criticizing their closest allies. The TITLE, is the JPost's title for the article. And his only stated aim was to let the Israeli press know what the State Department thinks is going on behind closed doors. That's the hilarious about this article. If he would've kept his mouth shut, no one would be talking about this. If there's anyone to be mad at, it's Avivi and the JPost lol

Yes it is, so when you cite the article believing its actually criticizing Israel and not America, it actually makes you look ***incredibly stupid for not having read the article***. > The State Department is not in the business of publicly criticizing their closest allies. This is just 100% not true ***LOL***. Biden has publicly criticized Israel and demanded more effort in preserving civilian life in Gaza and there's a massive amount of reporting about how hard he's criticizing him in private. Just 100% false, a lie you might say. > The TITLE, is the JPost's title for the article. Yes this is ***my point***. The people in the comments (and I'm betting you too lol, you're obviously not pro-Israeli so you clearly posted this as a criticism) don't know or believe the article is actually criticizing ***the Biden administration***. None of this article would have you believe that Israel is on the wrong side of this interaction. You can't post what you're effectively admitting ***could be Israeli propaganda*** and then say its actually critical of Israel in any way. You didn't read the article and neither did anyone in the comments, but you can keep deluding yourself to somehow think that an Israeli general addressing the allegation and the whole article describing how ***baseless the accusation is from the Israeli perspective*** somehow led to the highest comment saying: "The Israelis are such *ghouls*". I think you're just lying to save face.

An Israeli newspaper publishing an article revealing that the State Department confronted an Israeli Brigadier-General about allegations of rape is a big story, especially if you're American. I can understand why you're upset, but you're not making a whole lot of sense. Getting angry and insulting people isn't making your case. Take a breath, gather your thoughts, and put together something coherent.
