A new report, which examined over 10,000 photographs and videos from October 7th, totalling more than 1,800 hours of visual analysis, has finally revealed the true scale of Hamas’ sexual violence committed during the attack.

Survivor Darin Komarov, who hid in a caravan during the attack, said she heard at least three separate rapes.

She said: ‘I heard one rape where they were passing her around. She was probably injured, judging by her screams - screams you have never heard anywhere…

'It’s between silence and screams, between pain and wanting to die… And after they finished, they shot her… You hear a bang - and silence.'

'There was laughter. There were jokes. They were passing them from one to another… It was done for fun.'

After being rescued, she said she saw their bodies. ‘There wasn’t a single body that just “died normally”,' she said. 'Every single one had gone through torture.’

Some good charts showing us things we already know but numbers always help. Nothing to see here, folks

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

One of the most harrowing recordings from October 7th is of a nine-year-old girl on Kibbutz Be'eri.

A police dispatcher listened as she pleaded with Hamas men who had captured her, telling them she was just a child and that she had school to attend the next day.

The operator begged, but the terrorist shot the child and burned her remains, which were later recovered.

The pure evil that Hamas wrought that day will never be forgotten.

Neither will the memories of the 93 children were murdered, injured, or kidnapped on October 7th.

May their memories forever be a blessing 💔

[Masih Alinejad 🏳️ @AlinejadMasih]

I woke up thinking I was seeing images from October 7.
It wasn’t history. It was today. Sydney.

A Jewish community event turned into a scene of terror.
This is what happens when the danger of Islamic ideology is denied, excused, or rebranded as “resistance.”

We the people who have experienced living under Islamic ideology warned the free world. But we were mocked. Called Islamophobic. Silenced.
Now innocent civilians are dead.

This is the result of normalizing so-called “resistance.”
Of cheering terror at rallies.
Of chanting “intifada” in the streets

It is beyond tragic that some Western leaders choose ideology over national security.
Warnings about Islamist terrorism are dismissed in the name of “tolerance” and “political correctness.”
This is the cost.

Denial has consequences.
Cowardice has a body count.

Stand against Islamist terrorism
Or this will keep happening.
Our hearts are with the victims, their families, and the entire Jewish community in Australia, who came together in joy and were met with violence instead.

💔

“I saw them dangling a little child—two years old—by his arms. Then they threw him onto the porch where they were keeping us.”

Efrat from Be’eri recounts the terror she witnessed in her kibbutz on October 7, the laughter, the gunfire, the wounded, the burning homes.

What more do you need to see?

What other country would endure this and not respond?

Show me one.

[lelemSLP @lelemSLP]

I don't know if I can listen anymore, it becomes much worse.

"He (the captor) says to me: ‘Listen, if you convert to Islam, we’ll bring you lots of food, you’ll live with us.’ And I told him, ‘I was born a Jew, I’ll die a Jew.’ That's when it got much worse.

He came with a note and said, ‘It says here to blindfold you. These are orders from above’
He tied the blindfold over my eyes. Made sure I couldn’t see even a drop of light: tied one shirt around my eyes, and another shirt over it.

Now, my bathroom breaks were only three times a day: 9 a.m., 4 p.m., and 9 p.m. It was a nightmare. I had to hold my urine for hours. He also cut down my drinking water to half a liter a day.

A week passed — and I was still blindfolded.

After a week, he said, ‘There’s another letter. It says to block your ears.’

He came in holding two stones. He took off the blindfold just to show them to me. He was happy, grinning. He said, ‘Look what I brought you. I found these outside, looked for them just for you.’

He pushed one stone into my ear. It didn’t fit well. So he took a nail and started forcing it in with the nail, deeper and deeper.

I screamed, but he didn’t care. He kept pushing it in, deeper. Then he moved to the other ear and did the same thing.

He left the stones inside, the pain was coming from deep inside. Then he retied the blindfold even tighter, wrapping it on top again. I still have a hematoma here to this day.

He tied it as tight as he could. It pressed on me so hard that blood stopped flowing to my head. I could feel pounding in my skull, my brain was throbbing, I could feel my own blood, the pain!

I’ve never in my life felt pain like that. It’s pain I can’t even describe.

And no food. Not even a pita a day anymore.

And that went on for three weeks: blindfolded, no bathroom, hungry, in agony, with stones in my head!

Then he came to me again and said, ‘There’s another letter — it says to tie you up and torture you.’”

Interview with Rom Braslavski by @HazinorX

[John Spencer @SpencerGuard]

As a hostage...tortured for 20-minutes seven times a day, and blindfolded while stones were inserted into his ears with nails — leaving him unable to see or hear for weeks.

‘I am screaming and he doesn’t care, he just keeps putting it in deeper,'...describing the agony of the stones being inserted into his ears.

...they lied to him that his father was dead and that they saw his burial on Israeli television, ate food in front of him while he starved, and how the torture escalated when he refused to convert to Islam.

After the punches, it turned into punches with that whip [the one they used for their donkeys], each lash felt like a burn. It left me with scars — I still have those scars today. They haven’t faded from my body.’

Let’s have a discussion on how Qatar is paying $80,000 a month to former congressmen Jim Moran, Tom McMillen, Tom Davis, and Tom Reynolds to lobby Congress and polish its image.

Qatar’s dropped over $72 million on U.S. lobbyists since 2012, spiking after the 2017 Gulf blockade to $1.7 million per month at peak, roping in everyone from ex-Trump aides to firms like Avenue Strategies (co-founded by Corey Lewandowski). It’s not just cash for access; they’ve funneled $6.25 billion into universities, $1 billion+ to Texas A&M
and $33 billion into real estate, all while hosting U.S. ops at Al Udeid and playing mediator in Gaza talks.

I have mixed feelings about Kalshi (and very strong feelings about mayoral race) but this is a clever ad (heading into Lincoln Tunnel)

[Eitan Fischberger @EFischberger]

And when I say "Qatar's influence juggernaut," I MEAN juggernaut.
Here's the data:

🔸️Qatar has 31 FARA registrants in the U.S., with 22 based in Washington, D.C. — a 71% concentration, the highest of any major lobbying country.

🔸️Since 2016, Qatar has spent nearly $250M on 88 lobbying and PR firms, logging 627 in-person political meetings from 2021–25 — more than any other country.

🔸️Its total U.S. footprint is $93.7B, including $30B in business investments, $29B in weapons purchases, $20B in energy projects, $8B for Al Udeid Air Base, and $6.3B in higher education.

🔸️Qatar is the single largest foreign funder of U.S. universities at $6.3 billion. The D.C.-based Georgetown has recieved $1 billion since 2005.

🔸️Qatari influence also permeates D.C. media and real estate: Al Jazeera holds 136 congressional press credentials (vs. 82 for the New York Times), and Qatari Diar owns the 2-million-sq-ft CityCenterDC project under Sharia rules.

[Mossad Commentary @MOSSADil]

🚨 He Bombed a School Bus. Killed 7 Children.

In 2003, Palestinian terrorist Ali Al-Sayes carried out 10 bombings, including the school bus attack that murdered seven Israeli children.

After 20 years in prison, he’s now free, greeted as a hero and even called a hostage by Arab media.

He’s reunited with his daughter, who was the same age as the children he slaughtered.

These are the “heroes” celebrated in Gaza. That’s the moral disease we’re fighting.

He describes how he was intentionally starved despite there being plenty of food for his captors, who bragged about stealing aid.

[Amit Segal @AmitSegal]

The IDF has published handwritten notes by Yahya Sinwar in which he gives guiding principles for the planned raid into Israel. From a document dated 2022:

"The preparatory stage for the raid: it is essential that the forces carry out intensive movements weeks before any action by the Red Side that the enemy regards as routine; this will serve as a cover story for the large movement."

"Care must be taken to release images that will cause an outbreak of intoxication, frenzy and eruption among our people, especially in the West Bank, 'inside', in Jerusalem and throughout our nation. This is to stimulate compliance with calls that will urge them to rise up. At the same time, they should cause an outburst of terror and fear among the enemy. Unit commanders must be instructed that they should deliberately produce these things, film them and broadcast the images as quickly as possible: trampling on soldiers' heads, point-blank shootings, stabbing several with a knife, blowing up tanks, soldiers kneeling with their hands on their heads, and so on."

"Events that will yield terrifying images must be planned in advance — several car bombs burning and exploding at an outpost or in a building and creating horrific destruction, heart-rending scenes, terrible fire. Five or ten such images will sow mortal fear in them. 'Allah struck them from where they did not expect and cast terror into their hearts.' Preparations should be made for two or three operations whose objective is to burn down an entire neighborhood or kibbutz, etc. — they should pour fuel or diesel from a special tanker, set the place on fire and broadcast the images."

"Each brigade commander must have a ready plan for mobilizing forces, their deployment, the manner of communicating with them and their employment according to central orders from the head of the apparatus."

"The objectives of the Northern Brigade should look primarily toward the coastline. The objectives of the Gaza Brigade should be in a north-east direction up to a certain angle. The objectives of the Central Camps should be in a north-east direction slanting toward the east. The objectives of the Khan Younis Brigade should be toward the east. The objectives of the Rafah Brigade should be toward the south-east."

"If we are not ready to exploit the opportunity to its fullest, then the enemy will succeed in seizing control of the chaos and moving to a counterattack or will receive outside assistance, and then the situation will turn against us in the worst possible way. Therefore it is essential to be prepared for a flow of forces, development of the attack, its expansion and reinforcement to the maximum during the first six to ten hours in order to establish solid facts on the ground that will thwart any possibility of a counterattack."

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

“Enter residential neighborhoods and set them on fire with gasoline or diesel from a tanker….Document the scenes of horror, now, and broadcast them on TV channels to the whole world… Slaughter them. End the children of Israel.”

The New York Times revealed that the IDF recovered a six‑page memo in Gaza, believed to have been written by Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in August 2022, outlining instructions for the October 7 massacre.

The memo calls for Hamas men to target soldiers and civilian communities, and to broadcast the violent acts in order to instill fear among Israelis and destabilize the country.

Contrary to Sinwar’s public claims, the document shows that he wanted the terrorists to target civilians from the outset, ordering them to enter residential neighborhoods and set them on fire “with gasoline or diesel from a tanker.”

From the start, Hamas planned an attack of rare brutality, aimed primarily at civilians and meant to be broadcast ״to the Arab world to mobilize people outside Gaza to join the fight.״

Hamas’ plan was never to “Free Palestine” or protect Palestinians. Their orders were to burn homes and kill everyone.

The instructions in the memo were consistent with the communications intercepted on October 7.

Intercepts of Hamas battalion commanders said: “I want the whole kibbutz to be in flames.” “Start setting homes on fire.” “Slit their throats, slit them as you are trained.”

This is the truth about your “freedom fighters.”
