many dismiss anything said by Israel out of hand while immediately accepting any claim made by Hamas. Not to say all Palestinians are Hamas but Hamas does have virtually complete control of what is reported from Gaza. Also not to deny Israel primarily controls the narrative on their side, but it is much easier for individual Israelis to be heard than individual Palestinians in Gaza.

Credit for acknowledging the sexual assaults on Israeli women; most cannot bring themselves to say that. I also believe there have been sexual assaults of Palestinians and as I said above, I condemn sexual violence no matter who does it and want to see the perpetrators brought to justice.
