Pro-Palestinian protesters ‘beyond despicable’ if they fail to condemn Hamas

Sky News host Rowan Dean says anyone who “mouths pro-Palestinian platitudes” without totally condemning the Hamas attack on October 7 is “culpable and beyond despicable” after US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s address at the UN.

Hundreds gathered at the United Nations last Monday for a special session to raise awareness of the sexual crimes committed against women during the October 7 Hamas attacks, amid growing anger over the international community’s perceived silence on the issue.

“It’s important that we are giving a voice to the women raped and murdered on October 7, and it is important that we are speaking truth to power in this place at this time,” Ms Gillibrand said at the special session.

“When I saw the list of women’s organizations that said nothing, I nearly choked.

"Where is the solidarity for women in this country and in this world, to stand up for our mothers, our sisters and our daughters?

“The horrific acts committed on October 7 by Hamas are truly indescribable, I’ve seen much of the raw footage. It takes your breath away at the sheer level of evil it depicts.”
