The mother of a woman whose body was paraded through the streets by Hamas has pleaded for help finding her daughter.
A video showing German tattoo artist Shani Louk on the back of a pickup truck circulated on social media after the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.
Louk had been attending an outdoor “Festival for Peace” party near Kibbutz Urim when the area was targeted. First, rockets were launched, then gunmen and appeared and shot into the crowd, CNN reported. Party attendees told the outlet people immediately started to flee, passing dead bodies on the ground as they tried to escape the massacre.
The attack and resulting conflict has left hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians dead, with Israel’s prime minister declaring war.
A video of a young woman with dreadlocks on the back of a pickup truck and surrounded by Hamas soldiers started circulating on social media shortly after the attack. In it, she appears stripped to her underwear, and her legs are bent at unnatural angles, while one soldier grabs her hair. People are also seen spitting on her body.

Native Americans did fuck people up. They weren’t innocent, they fought back and when the colonizers started mutilating people’s corpses they retaliated in kind. There is no perfect victim.
The indians who followed Mahatma Gandhi.
The african americans who followed Martin Luther King Jr.
I’m sure there were some bad apples in both of those groups, but a majority of them achieved their goals via peaceful means. The majority of palestinians are assholes.
Yeah, that’s totally unbiased and sensical. /s
Ok, yeah, you’re right, I should have sourced that. Here you go: https://coopwb.in/info/how-many-palestinians-support-hamas/
I’m wondering if you’d read this: https://www.btselem.org/press_releases/2021413_new_all_population_israeli_palestinian_survey
What do you think of these? I think it’s a much better analysis of public opinion among Jewish and Palestinian residents.
Those are the stats from 2021. Yes, so what about the other 50%? Do you think there is a bit more complication going into supporting Hamas? Or does that conclusion lead you to “they are assholes”? My question is, how? Walk me through your reasoning.
Yes, I’m sure that they have reasons to be assholes, but if we go into that, we cannot really call anyone an asshole, because every asshole’s assholiness is based on previous events.
Is apartheid a good enough reason, in your opinion?
Also, what would your reaction be if I said something like The majority of Jewish people are assholes? And then to prove it, what if I just linked to this survey from B’Tselem that states:
These numbers show that only one-third of Jewish people residing in Israel or in the occupied territories believe that this Jewish supremacy law should be removed.
So at this point, is it useful in any way or even descriptive of the situation at hand to say The majority of Jewish people are assholes? Is it acceptable? Is it racist?
I think there is a lot of misuse of statistics being done here. No single survey can show us the truth accurately, but surveys and statistics can only bring us closer to understanding the big picture.
Saying things like *The majority of Palestinians are assholes" makes you come off as a one-dimensional character with cartoon reasoning.
Majority of Isrealis, you mean? That might be true as well.
That’s like saying “the Palestinians who aren’t Hamas”. MLK himself said that his movement benefited greatly because people were forced to pay attention to it. If it could have been ignored then it probably would have been, but it presented an alternative to the more violent and terroristic solutions to racism presented by some of MLK’s contemporaries, so even there you can’t separate out that movement from the context and expect it to stand alone.
Also i hear shit like “the majority of black people are assholes” from racist fuckers all the time so this post is giving me kinda mixed messages.
Because it’s possible not to when you have access to water and, generally, the basic necessities of life. Live under constant oppression, though? Moral systems cease to apply, instinct takes over, and baseline human nature is metal.
Suppose you corner a cat. Would you blame her if you get scratched? Same shit, grander scale. Don’t push people to desperation and fascist orgs like Hamas wouldn’t have the support they have.
You’re stripping context away. This is all you anti-Palestinians, pro-Zionists do to push your genocidal views.
There’s no proof or evidence of any rape happening. This is just you making the assumption that since women are taken, they must have been raped by these savage Palestinians. This is pure, unadulterated racism. Sure, it could have happened and it could be happening, but there’s literally no proof of it anywhere. You’re literally just making shit up because you’re racist.
You know what you’ve never talked about or thought of in your life? The decades long documented torture and raping campaign of Palestinians by Israel never mind all the tens of thousands of dead Palestinians. None of this makes you bat an eye.
What you’re saying is just a straight up lie backed up with nothing.
I don’t know why you think racism against Palestinians is okay. This is literally identical to every other genocidal campaign throughout history. “These other people are savages and ‘fucked’ and can’t be civil, therefore, it’s okay to treat them the way they are treated.”
There’s no difference between you and the people after 9/11 thinking we should nuke the entire Middle East into oblivion. You’re the same person. Very stupid, very emotional. We’re all glad the only power you have over anyone is yourself. You’re an unhinged nutjob.
So everyone in every Western military and government too? Or that doesn’t count because it’s acceptable when they do it.
There is actually a very ironic colonial theme to his comment.
Without evidence, Native Americans were blamed for taking and raping white women. It was often used to swing civilian view and stage attacks to displace or kill them.
Then he goes full genocide in his last sentence. Found the Tankie I guess.
