Is Hamas working propaganda to cover October 7 rape allegations

Whereas tens of millions of Jewish people and other people with conscience are demanding stern measures in opposition to mega-terror outfit Hamas for grotesque sexual crimes on Israeli females, ladies and even minors, Israeli media outlet YNet has joined a well-orchestrated propaganda run by Hamas and different anti-Semite components in defaming Cochav Elkayam-Levy, lawyer and founding father of ‘Civil Fee on October seventh Crimes by Hamas in opposition to Ladies and Youngsters’ by accusing her of scamming donors and spreading misinformation. YNet got here up with the allegations inside days of Cochav Elkayam-Levy receiving prestigious Israel Prize. Whereas accepting the prize, ELkayam-Levy mentioned, “We should stand agency in opposition to the stark denial and the growing tide of antisemitism”.

Cochav Elkayam Levy has been a go-to supply for Western and worldwide media shops pushing the narrative that Palestinian militants carried out sexual assault on an enormous and systematic foundation after they attacked Israel.

In the meantime, Max Blumenthal, editor of The Grayzone Information wrote on his ‘X’ account that has over 624,000 followers: “The chair of Israel’s investigative committee into rape on 10/7 by Hamas, @CochavElkayam, presents an outdated picture of useless feminine Kurdish fighters as girls sexually assaulted on the Nova music fest Throughout a 11/12 discuss for Harvard’s Maimonides Society, Elkayam referred to “a picture of a lady stripped from the waist down… photographed on the facet of the Nova music pageant” This picture was initially revealed on the nameless Hamas-Bloodbath web site promoted by Israel’s govt, however eliminated w/o acknowledgment after I demonstrated it was first revealed in 2022 and confirmed useless feminine Kurdish fighters”.

In keeping with Grayzone, Elkayam-Levy has starred in a factually challenged CNN particular on the subject narrated by the fervently pro-Israel host Jake Tapper, who recognized her as “an skilled in human rights legislation who organized a civil committee to doc proof”.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz featured Elkayam-Levy as the topic of a puff piece which claimed that her work “presents a horrifying image that leaves no room for doubt: On October 7, Hamas terrorists systematically carried out acts of rape and sexual abuse”.

On December 6, 2023, members of the White Home Nationwide Safety Council and Assistant to the President and Director of the Gender Coverage Council Jennifer Klein hosted Elkayam-Levy in Washington to listen to “about her work to assemble testimony and doc proof of the occasions of October 7 and develop a complete accounting of gender-based violence dedicated by Hamas”.

However on March 24, 2024, main Israeli publication YNet revealed a troubling exposé accusing Elkayam-Levy of ripping off main donors, together with a member of the Biden administration, spreading pretend Hamas atrocity tales, and failing to ship on her promise of a serious report about sexual violence on October 7.

An Israeli authorities official informed YNet, “Individuals have disassociated themselves from her [Elkayam-Levy] as a result of her analysis is inaccurate.

“In any case, the entire story is that they wish to accuse us of spreading pretend information, and her methodology was neither good nor correct”.

Israeli authorities officers had been notably incensed that Elkayam-Levy unfold discredited claims {that a} Hamas militant minimize a fetus from a pregnant lady earlier than raping the lady – a lie first unfold by confirmed fraudster Yossi Landau of the scandal-stained ZAKA group. “The story in regards to the pregnant lady who had her abdomen minimize open – a narrative that was confirmed to be unfaithful, and she or he unfold it within the worldwide press”, Israeli official complained to YNet. “It’s no joke. Little by little, professionals started to distance themselves from her as a result of she is unreliable”.

The story of Hamas militants having fun with a nice morning meal after chopping a whole household to items was not Yossi Landau’s solely contributions to media buzz. He had additionally confirmed the actual fact of Hamas beheading infants in Kibbutz Kfar Aza – a contrivance which US President Joe Biden promoted. The US president additionally mentioned, he has seen beheaded Israeli kids.

As CBS Information reported on October 11, 2023, Yossi Landau mentioned he “noticed along with his personal eyes kids and infants who had been beheaded”.

Subsequently, Sara Sidner of CNN and White Home retracted their claims about beheaded infants.

Sara Sidner in a tweet wrote, “Yesterday the Israeli Prime Minister’s workplace mentioned that it had confirmed Hamas beheaded infants & kids whereas we had been stay on the air. The Israeli authorities now says right this moment it CANNOT affirm infants had been beheaded. I wanted to be extra cautious with my phrases and I’m sorry”.

White Home in its assertion mentioned, “The president primarily based his feedback in regards to the alleged atrocities on the claims from Netanyahu’s spokesman and media experiences from Israel”.

Giving particulars about Elkayam-Levy, Israeli media outlet YNet mentioned, she additional alienated the Israeli authorities by spinning her “Civil Fee” out of a one-woman operation she ran referred to as the Deborah Institute, creating the sense that she was representing Tel Aviv in an official capability.

“At first she was actually very lively, which was very good. Then it began calling itself a civilian fee. Individuals obtained confused, members of Congress turned to individuals who work with Israel and requested what it’s – ‘Israel constructed a fee?’ It’s a complicated title. And to the query of whether or not there may be such a factor in any respect? Is there such a physique? The reply is – no. It is the physique. She is the civil fee”.

By means of her Deborah Institute, Elkayam-Levy has raised tens of millions of {dollars}. But when the federal government sources who spoke to YNet are to be believed, she conned rich American Jewish donors like Rahm Emanuel, at the moment the Biden administration’s ambassador to Japan, and channeled the cash into her private checking account.

In keeping with YNet, Elkayam-Levy appealed for US$8 million to launch her “Civil Fee”, requesting US$1.5 million for “administration and administration”. “Rahm Emanuel, the US ambassador to Japan, donated cash to her, she took donations from lots of people, and began asking for cash for lectures”, the Israeli official complained.

After greater than 5 months of analysis, nevertheless, the publicity-hungry lawyer has produced nothing of substance to justify her huge fundraising haul. Certainly, the “atrocity report” Elkayam-Levy had promised supporters, which might have supplied clear proof of systematic sexual violence by Hamas on October 7, has but to reach.

In the meantime, Elkayam-Levy reportedly tried to impede a go to to Israel by United Nations Particular Consultant on Sexual Violence in Battle Pramila Patten, whose report was in the end touted by Israel as “proof” of intercourse crimes by Hamas regardless of Patten’s personal admission that it contained no proof and lacked any investigative mandate from the UN.

Elkayam-Levy’s fall from grace comes as The New York Instances revealed a report casting additional doubt on the paper’s already-discredited December 28, 2023 article alleging “systematic sexual violence” by Hamas on October 7.

In keeping with the March 25 report revealed in The New York Instances, an Israeli paramedic figuring out himself as “G” (actual title: Man Melamed) lied to the paper when he claimed to have discovered the corpses of teenage ladies in Kibbutz Beeri in a state of undress that clearly indicated rape. “Footage taken by an Israeli soldier who was in Beeri on Oct. 7… reveals the our bodies of three feminine victims totally clothed and with no obvious indicators of sexual violence”, The New York Instances said.
