Zaka stories have been essential to justifying Israel’s all-out war against Gaza, which has killed around 30,000 Palestinians in less than five months. Speaking at the United Nations in December, Zaka deputy commander Simcha Greiniman broke down while describing alleged atrocities. He later told the same stories to a meeting of British parliamentarians.
Even when Western media outlets have questioned Landau, the inquiries were half-hearted. The Times asked Landau “about reports, attributed to him, that children had been beheaded on Oct. 7.” It reported: “Mr. Landau denied making the claim, though he acknowledged sometimes misspeaking in the immediate aftermath of the attack. What he saw himself, he said, was a small, burned body with at least part of the head missing, perhaps severed by the force of a blast. It was unclear, he added, if it was the body of teenager or someone younger.”
While the Times said the statements had been “attributed” to Landau, there is no dispute he said them. He told the stories on camera, and the clips were posted widely online. He told CNN he found “a body, of a 14, 15-year-old. Head chopped off. We were looking around for the head. Couldn’t find it.” On India’s Republic TV, Landau said of beheaded children, “Yes, this occurred. This happened.” He made similar comments to Channel 14 Israel and CBS News. There is no evidence Hamas beheaded children or babies. As The Intercept reported at the time, the Israeli military said it couldn’t confirm the claims just four days after the attack.
Media outlets, including Israeli television news programs, have debunked numerous stories about dead babies, calling them “fictional.”
That’s weird. Womens rights organisations were screaming at the IDF to use rape kits to collect evidence
But the IDF blocked their own forensic analyst experts specifically trained for this purpose from collecting and examining the bodies, and instead made Zaka do it.
All very coincidental.
Next time there is an unprecedented terrorist attack, perhaps they will be better organized.
In the meantime, all we are left with is the evidence of our own eyes.
Indeed. Our own eyes that can observe that Hamas did not rape anyone since October 7 but israel did.
Are you admitting israel raped people by the way? Or do your eyes not work well enough for that?
You can’t observe anything, because you don’t want to look and you don’t want to listen. Even when freed captives report sexual abuse. You’ve already made up your mind.
As for Israel, they are also responsible for atrocities. Both sides in this conflict are filled with a deep hatred that brings out the worst in humanity.
An IDF doctor statement is your “evidence”?
The same party that lied about rapes on Oct7, and are actual rapists are your credible source?
If only the IDF allowed interviews with the released hostages. But they don’t since the first interviews with released hostages all said they were treated well which is bad optics when the IDF is the side actually doing the raping.
And again no forensic evidence this time from women that are alive… 🤔
Ah yes, it’s back to “Believe women - unless they are Jews”.
I’m sure you will also dismiss testimony from 10/7 survivors who witnessed women being raped by Hamas, because they don’t fit your narrative.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
a survivor who heard a woman cry that she was being raped during the attack

Who’s that he was not in the article. New IDF recruit?
The “witness” in the article changed his story like 3 times until he saw beheaded women which provably didn’t exist. And at the moment he was supposedly seeing the rape he was talking rad selfies.
Oh yeah and his friend which was there right next to him did not corroborate the story.
Just so many rapes and zero evidence ever collected. Really sad and coincidental you’d almost think the IDF was lying to manufacture consent for Genocide. The IDF would never lie right?
Zero evidence if you ignore eyewitness evidence. I guess you think basically nobody should ever be found guilty of rape.
Furthermore, the first witness did not contradict his story. In the TikTok video he describes Hamas murders, and in the later interview he describes the same Hamas murders and goes on to describe the rapes. Those accounts are consistent.
The second witness described Hamas rapes to the AP as well as in his video.
Of course since they are Israeli, they must have served in the IDF. It’s compulsory. So if you don’t believe anyone who served in the IDF that’s equivalent to not believing Jews, a pretty typical attitude for Hamas defenders.
Yes just like the 40 beheaded babies in ovens. Here’s an article that you might fight interesting:
