The Gateway Pundit reported on a captured Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist captured in Gaza that admitted his team raped Israeli women through the Hamas terrorist assaults.
In a put up on Instagram, Schwimmer shared a distrubling New York Times report revealed on Thursday that particulars the sexual violence and brutality Israeli girls confronted by the hands of Hamas terrorists.
The report, a end result of a two-month-long investigation, resulted from interviews with 150 individuals together with witnesses, medical personnel, troopers, and rape counselors.
Schwimmer shared on Instagram:
I served on the Board of Administrators for The Rape Basis for nearly 20 years, and have been an advocate for youngster and grownup survivors of sexual violence for nearly 30.
I’ve met essentially the most unimaginable and brave individuals in my life via this work: Kids, teenagers, women and men, who not solely survived essentially the most horrific circumstances possible — however, with the precise therapy and care, refused to let their trauma outline them and went on to steer extremely loving, wholesome and productive lives.
One essential facet I discovered early on concerning the therapeutic course of, and for justice to be served by the prison offenders, is that the survivor be BELIEVED:
No matter age
No matter race
No matter gender
No matter faith
No matter sexual orientation
No matter nationality
No matter training
No matter financial standingThere are unimaginable organizations and people that I rely as allies on this work. Who for years have stood up and fought for survivors of rape and sexual assault, demanding justice — a lot of whom are survivors themselves.
And but…
Why accomplish that many REFUSE TO BELIEVE — regardless of all of the proof on digital camera and in testimony — the ladies, youngsters and males brutally assaulted by terrorists on Oct. seventh?
The place is their outrage?
Within the weeks and months that adopted, it grew to become clear that their activism, their advocacy, is conditional.
They’ll struggle like hell for ALL victims of sexual violence — until they’re Jews.
For a lot of of them, denying it even occurred is a handy manner of avoiding compassion and private accountability.
Maybe this text will lastly make them notice they bought it fallacious, and are available to phrases with their unconscious bias.
As a result of — as they know higher than most — their refusal to consider the survivors has RE-TRAUMATIZED them, in addition to their households, mates, and people of us who did consider them.
However they will use their voice now.
And it will be nice to know who the actual allies are.
