The problem is that Israelis have lied so often about what happened on October 7 -- Hamas beheaded forty babies, Hamas baked babies in an oven etc. -- that even when they're telling the truth nobody believes them.
I have no doubt that Hamas committed acts of sexual violence on October 7, but the extent of that violence may never be known because Israel refuses to allow independent investigators to examine the evidence.
The question is not whether rapes occurred. They clearly did. The question is whether the details of the rapes are being exaggerated for propaganda purposes and to justify genocide.
