Media complicity in genocide: Sky News gives airtime to liar and switches off comments
Do not believe the person interviewed below.
It appears to be yet another attempt by Israel’s apologists to claim that Israeli women were subjected to systematic sexual violence by Hamas personnel and other Palestinians when they broke out from Gaza to kill around 1,200 Israelis (roughly half of whom were military personnel) on October 7 last year.
It is still possible that sexual violence took place, but if you read the information below, you’ll see that there’s no evidence for it – certainly not on anything like the scale or level of atrocity that is being alleged.
Read the cautionary note from Max Blumenthal, and the thread following, before coming to your own conclusion:
Sky News has turned comments off on this massive hoax, so no one can point out that the lone source, Shari Mendes, is a proven fraud who previously claimed to have witnessed a fetus cut from a pregnant woman and beheaded

She said she saw baby beheadings, but Israel won't confirm any baby beheadings.https://t.co/natwZd4Nb8 pic.twitter.com/IuXoMvUwyB

She relies on innuendos such as "bloody underwear", "broken bones", or "there seems to be systematic genital mutilation.
But, Times of Israel reported there was no physical evidence of sexual assault collected for Oct 7 victims. pic.twitter.com/sINGPyEneE

In summary, Shari Mendes is an architect with no forensic credentials.
She claims to have seen beheaded babies, dead babies, and pregnant women cut open.
Yet she is cited in @washingtonpost,@nytimes, and @guardian in their investigative articles pushing Oct 7 mass rape.

It seems we can wipe Zaka off the list of credible sources of information.
And I’d urge you to remember this if you see Camilla Tominey on Politics Live, or any other news commentary shows.
