It wasnt a rape
Facing trial is facing consequences
Who will face consequences on the rape of female hostages?
Who will face consequences for starving the hostages and abuse them?
Forcible penetration of the anus with an object is rape.
Quote
penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim
I can understand why Israelis would prefer a different definition of rape (or consent, or pedophilia, but that’s another subject).
Facing trial isn’t a consequence if there is no time served, no loss of employment, no financial penalty, etc. Those responsible for taking hostages, rape or abuse should all face long jail sentences. Can you say the same about these rapists abusing a prisoner?
