The mother of a woman whose body was paraded through the streets by Hamas has pleaded for help finding her daughter.
A video showing German tattoo artist Shani Louk on the back of a pickup truck circulated on social media after the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.
Louk had been attending an outdoor “Festival for Peace” party near Kibbutz Urim when the area was targeted. First, rockets were launched, then gunmen and appeared and shot into the crowd, CNN reported. Party attendees told the outlet people immediately started to flee, passing dead bodies on the ground as they tried to escape the massacre.
The attack and resulting conflict has left hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians dead, with Israel’s prime minister declaring war.
A video of a young woman with dreadlocks on the back of a pickup truck and surrounded by Hamas soldiers started circulating on social media shortly after the attack. In it, she appears stripped to her underwear, and her legs are bent at unnatural angles, while one soldier grabs her hair. People are also seen spitting on her body.
I’m sure that western media will handle this news in a completely rational, reasonable, and non-inflammatory way.
I don’t know if anyone can cover things this horrible entirely rationaly. But I hope they at least examine their bias.
Don’t worry, they won’t

Yes
Look: I’m a very vocal critic of the way media covers Israel and its far right ruling party, but I feel like this is a terrible place to go to reading this.
War is hell. Terrorism is hell. What happened to this woman sand others is tragic. I hope this woman is alive and is recovered, I hope hostilities end as soon as possible, and I hope the treatment of Palestinians improves, and that Hamas and the Israeli far right are both disempowered of their ability to cause harm.
I believe you believe that
War crimes this bad are not the problem with media coverage.
What preceded the conflict?
Dancing at a music festival
Care to go back further?
No because the event we are talking about here is a woman’s body being dragged around. We’re not talking about the entirety of the conflict right now.
Indeed, it’s truly an isolated event in a historical vacuum
