From Oct 7 on, many of us witnessed with pain as victims & families were used as narrative props by warmongers. Lies were told for war purposes about the actual traumas that day. Families were harassed for protesting, & criticized for how they grieved, for months. Families of peace-seeking victims have been in agony to see loved ones' values leveraged for slaughter.
As I wrote last week, kibbutzim & victims are refusing to be part of this.
Good for them.

Relatedly, a so-called suicide note, dramatically detailing someone killing himself after not being able to save a female friend from rape and murder on Oct 7, has now been reported on Israeli media as a fake.
It's as frustrating as it is sickening to see people lie around real trauma.
Whoever crafted this lie probably thought they were serving the war effort, but the desecration of victims' experiences, to craft wilder tales for war, is unconscionable.
