UN Official for Violence Against Women Claims No Palestinian Applauded Sexual Assault – Twitchy

You don’t see many interviews in the media from people who’ve watched the raw footage from the October 7 massacre of Israelis by Hamas terrorists. In November 2023, The Los Angeles Times reported that “two groups clashed outside L.A.’s Museum of Tolerance as the center screened a film on Hamas atrocities.”

A mob waiting to jump people exiting a screening of atrocities against Jews = “two groups clash”

The pro-Hamas crowd certainly didn’t want anyone to see Hamas’ handiwork.

Those who wish to sanitize the slaughter like to grasp at straws: sure, Hamas might have beheaded an IDF soldier, but they certainly didn’t rape anyone, not even the women seen on video having their clothes torn off and being dumped in the back of pickup trucks like sacks of wet flour before being taken hostage and driven through the streets of Gaza, which we lined with celebrating men and boys.

Reem Alsalem, UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women and Girls, responded to a poster on Friday who claims that Gazans applauded the rapes. Alsalem insists not one Palestinian applauded.

No Palestinian applauded rape in Gaza. No independent investigation found that rape took place on the 7th of October.

Now she’s doing the meme: post something stupid and then say, “Wow, look at all the triggered people.”

My statement is again being deliberately misrepresented.
I had recently spoken at length on the reported sexual violence, including rape on and since 7 October in this podcast interview here: https://t.co/ep5PlumkkK

Yeah, we’re not listening to your podcast.

Look, you can’t expect the UN Special Rapporteur On Violence Against Women And Girls to keep up with every UN report on sexual violence against women and girls. https://t.co/p3b5nXwhku

Enjoy your community note, you liar.

Alsalem wasn’t hit with a Community Note, but there were a couple that were proposed:

Claim that no independent probe found rape on Oct 7 is incorrect. A UN mission found reasonable grounds that rape and other sexual violence occurred during the attacks, and the UN Commission of Inquiry documented rape/gang rape at multiple sites.

So Hamas did rape Israeli women, but no Palestinian applauded … is that the message here?

We’ve all seen the footage

We all saw video of Palestinians cheering while a brutally murdered woman, her legs broken, was paraded through Gaza in the back of a truck. We all saw the woman with her pants covered in blood from being raped repeatedly.
You’re a demon.

How to destroy years of precious work with one post. What a disappointment.

Your own employer says otherwise. You are a delusional psychopath, and you need to have your employment terminated immediately.

UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women and Girls!
Mendacity of UN Officials can be expected.
Betrayal by a woman of women & girls something else.

This is why the UN is the least trusted international institution on the planet.

The woman tasked with defending women from violence around the world defends rapists.

Remind me to never let my kids join the UN lest they lose their souls.

This has got to be the most effective demonstration of all that is wrong with the world and within the UN particularly.

Fucking hell

At this stage just disband the UN

They didn’t applaud it. They took part in it, then spat on the bodies

Interesting you avoided mentioning the sexual crimes on Israeli hostages after, which you are at least willing to acknowldge

I guess Hamas just had the discipline to wait until they got back to the tunnels & civilian hideways, right Reem? 🤷🏽‍♂️

— Sebastian Rarestformenfield (@St8ingObvious) November 14, 2025

Another Hamas apologist.

You are a disgrace – even to the UN in its current state.

It’s long past time the UN was closed down and its headquarters kicked out of the United States.
