Jibril Rajoub, secretary general of Fatah’s Central Committee, justifies the October 7 massacre by Hamas as an act “in the context of the defensive war our people are waging.”

In a speech he delivers in a meeting with journalists in Kuwait, Rajoub also says that Israel is responsible for causing October 7, due to its “aggression on all the Palestinian lands.”

    I thought Fatah and Hamas were against each other? Fatah certainly lost the vote in Gaza against them. This sounds like some sort of political rewriting of history.

    At least now they admit it happened. Now to convince them that maybe intentionally targeting civilians, raping, and kidnapping people isn’t a good thing that should be celebrated.

    Fat chance that will happen with the PLO as it is now. They figured out a long time ago that they get rich from not signing peace deals.

        Do you mean other than all the video, physical evidence, and victim testimony? You are a special kind of disgusting.

          Where’s the video and physical evidence of rape?

          You are a special kind of disgusting.

          Here he goes, trying to stifle legitimate discussion because “it’s so obvious nobody should even question what happened.”

          Look in a mirror, buddy. You’re behaving just like people on /r/conservative.

          Yes those videos of rape right next to the 40 beheaded babies.

          https://www.timesofisrael.com/police-start-building-oct-7-rape-cases-focusing-on-footage-and-testimonies/

          Oh wait it’s nothing! No videos no pictures. No evidence aside from someone that supposedly said they witnessed “Khamass raping errbody out there”.

          The rape kits? “Don’t work since the bodies are completely burned from all the Hellfire missles the Apache helicopter friendly fired israelis with”. Blame it all on Khamass!

            Take your chauvinist, murder fetishistic, terrorist apologia back to infowars. They let you deny murdered babies and attack rape victims with impunity over there.

            Even better, get some help, go touch grass. You are sick and need contact with other real life humans.

              Can’t you just share the ‘video evidence’ to prove him wrong?

              You’re the one who said there was evidence, share it so we can all see without a doubt that you aren’t full of shit. The fact that you’re saying “there’s evidence” then throw a hissy-fit when pressed to show it tells me that there isn’t actually evidence and you’re lying through your teeth.

              The easy way to prove me wrong would be to share your evidence. Only a fool would take the word of reddit/lemmy comments at face value.

              Get off the IDF kool aid and show me some evidence that rape happened. So far I’m seeing zero evidence of any rape yet you keep blabbering about it.

                I just wanted to say thanks for removing the personal attack that ended this post previously! It got reported and I WOULD have removed it, but you did the right thing and removed it yourself.

                Quick reminder to not attack other users.

                  Yeah since the other commenter above me decidated an entire paragraph to insults towards me (actually, the entire comment is just insulting me there is no substance) I did add an ad-hom but decided it would be better without attacking him personally so I edited it out.

                  Please don’t remove his comments though I’m waiting for him to respond with evidence.

                I, too, am waiting for this ‘video evidence’ of rapes he’s so certain about that he’s willing to call someone “a special kind of disgusting” for claiming there’s no proof.

                This video evidence should clear everything up for everyone, unless he was lying.

              The burdon of proof lies with the one making claims. They aren’t making any claims. They are only asking for evidence. Would you say the same thing to people questioning the (fake) justifications of war the US used to invade Iraq?

                WTF are you talking about? This is an internet forum, not a courtroom. I’m conveying facts that have been widely reported and verified by reputable international news agencies.

                Articles, videos, testimony, etc. have already been provided here. If you believe that ALL the evidence presented here is somehow wrong, then feel free to give your reasoning and evidence point by point for all of the journalists, medical professionals, and world leaders being somehow wrong.

                Or you can be like the other sick-minded people who have requested to personally see videos of women being raped.

        Regurgitating Hamas’ fantasy numbers is not remotely as impressive as you think it is. Makes you look like a complete tool, actually.
