Activists and journalists who deny that Hamas terrorists raped women and girls on Oct. 7 have found a “new way to dehumanize Jews.”

That’s according to a new, graphic video from the watchdog Canary Mission, which addresses anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour, Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon, Intercept co-founder Jeremy Scahill, podcaster Briahna Joy Gray and Max Blumenthal, editor-in-chief of The Gray Zone, among others.

Among the juxtapositions in the video is an Israel Police chief superintendent saying that the Jewish state has collected “substantial evidence for sexual violence” on Oct. 7, followed by Blumenthal stating that “right now there is no evidence of any rape taking place.”

According to Scahill, there is “an intense propaganda campaign to convince the world that Hamas had engaged in systematic campaign of rape aimed at Jewish women.”

“It’s time to call out these activists for what they really are: rape deniers,” the film states.

The Strait of Hormuz has been closed in the wake of the Israeli Air Force’s pummeling of Hezbollah, an IRGC-affiliated news agency reported.
President Trump had the power to “cripple Iran’s entire economy in minutes. But he chose mercy,” the defense secretary said.
“Never underestimate President Trump’s ability to successfully advance America’s interests,” Karoline Leavitt stated.

“If they negotiate in good faith, we will be able to find a deal,” the U.S. vice president said.
The U.S. president hailed the two-week ceasefire agreement with Tehran, suggesting the deal could mark the beginning of a ‘golden age’ in the Middle East.
Pakistan’s prime minister said that diplomatic talks to resolve the conflict will take place in Islamabad.
