There are no "both sides" to this [1]

The video of HAMAS militants screaming “God is great” while parading a mostly-naked body of a young woman, horribly injured, unconscious or dead, in the back of a pickup truck, has become viral. I will not link to it. Apparently the person in the video (identified by her tattoos) is Shani Louk from Germany, who had attended “a trance music festival — billed as an event celebrating ‘friends, love and infinite freedom’” (source: Washington Post). www.washingtonpost.com/…

The festival-goers were massacred. At least 260 dead. Possibly many taken hostage. www.cbsnews.com/…

HAMAS falsely claimed that the body was of an IDF soldier. Finally, it also appears that Shani’s credit card was used in Gaza.

Folks, there are no “both sides” to this.

As the events unfold, I fully expect even worse things to come to light. Videos flooding Telegram right now (unverified) show mistreatment of children hostages, women hostages, etc. This is fucking medieval.

And, seeing the comments trying to debate the point of this diary, I feel despair, but not surprise.
