Several years ago, 'progressive' types said things like 'believe all women'. Except if those women were the ones accusing Bill Clinton of long ago sins, or even modern day women accusing Joe Biden of sexual assault. Suddenly, it was believe 'some' women.

Rape as an act of war is NEVER acceptable. Again we ask - where is the outrage? https://t.co/Dt3CbYQF7C

The silence by the United Nations has been deafening.
None of us in the global Jewish community has the privilege of being silent. That’s why, I share every account of a death from Oct 7th, the posters of hostages with the demand to bring them home. Silence in the face of atrocity, and in the face of antisemitic hate crimes here the… https://t.co/JRP7tsfow5

Hamas wanted to video and share their horrific footage and now the world should believe what they did. They are proud of it, after all.

Supporting women who have been victims of sexual and physical violence should be universal.

How can you remain silent when women and girls are raped, tortured, their bodies carried around naked and spat on?

On UN's International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women I ask why the silence when it comes to the violence, rape and murder of Israeli women, perpetrated by Hamas.#SpeakOut#BelieveIsraeliWomen pic.twitter.com/r6mWHkSM3g

This is a terrible truth that cannot be silenced. The whole world must learn about it and wake up from its lethargic slumber. No matter how painful it is for us, the nightmare of October 7 should be a reminder to all that must never happen again. 💔🇮🇱

Justice for all women includes justice for Israeli women trying to tell their stories. They deserve to be heard and believed.
