Now that the new Hamas footage has come out, I think back to shortly after Oct. 7 when so many compared it to a “slave uprising against slave masters.” When in history has there been a slave uprising where older men—indoctrinated with jihadist ideologies of global domination/proliferation of political Islam and bankrolled by billionaires—took 19 year old girls captive as sex slaves? Never. Why? Because the goal of the oppressed is liberation, but the goal of fundamentalists is domination. Why are these exclusively women that they’re proudly parading around as captives for the world to see? Why do they want everybody to know what they did? Because sexual violence is a war tactic intentionally committed to subjugate, humiliate, embarrass, instill fear in, and dominate a population. It is psychological warfare. That is not the language of the oppressed. That is the language of the oppressor. If, as a society, we cannot draw the line at sexual violence against young girls committed for the purpose of psychological warfare, then as a society we have no lines at all, no values, no morals, and are vulnerable to corruption and collapse. The line of moral clarity is so clear here, I am begging you to climb out of the fog of indoctrination and see it.
