Canberra Liberals say alleged violent threat was a 'misunderstanding'

The Canberra Liberals have distanced themselves from former leader Leanne Castley's allegation that she was threatened with physical assault, saying the remark related to an "animated discussion" that was quickly resolved.

Ekelerregend!
„Das offenbart die gesellschaftliche Grundhaltung, die weiterhin partriarchal und #misogyn ist: trotz #MeToo und dem Wissen um strukturellen Machtmissbrauch wird #frauen weiterhin zu wenig Glauben geschenkt.“

A difficult but necessary post. The full report of the Dinah Project is out, showing systematic sexual violence by Hamas used on the 7 October massacres (and on hostages afterwards). The many incidents in six different locations suggest this was intentional, not incidental - sexual violence as a weapon.

Clear patterns of sexual violence emerge from the findings, including victims found partially or fully naked with their hands tied, sometimes to trees or poles; evidence of gang rape followed by executions; and severe genital violence. Sexual abuse also continued in captivity — released hostages reported forced nudity, physical and verbal sexual harassment, sexual attacks and threats of forced marriage.

Sadly, this report was necessary. Too many people are denying sexual violence was part of these attacks, people who in other circumstances say #BelieveHer. Perhaps it complicates their simplistic 'good guys and bad guys' view of the world, clashing with the narrative of 7 October as an act of liberation.

Needless to say - except on social media - this doesn't justify the ongoing horrific death and destruction in Gaza. (And if that's what you thought I was getting at, please go away.)

✊ We fight for glaciers. We fight for climate justice. We fight for women. Because when glaciers disappear, so do livelihoods. And when women lead, solutions follow.
