Debunking “Screams Before Silence,“ Sheryl Sandberg’s 7 October “mass rapes“ film, with Ali Abunimah

Billionaire former Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg released a sensational film purporting to document the mass rapes Israel claims were carried out by Hamas fighters on 7 October. Screams Before Silence, as the film is called, has already garnered more than 600,000 views on YouTube alone. It is being heavily promoted by such figures as former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, ostensibly progressive Congressman Ro Khanna, the Israeli government and countless lobby groups and media figures. Ali Abunimah breaks down Sandberg’s film and show how it is full of fabrications, distortions and lies, and does not present any credible evidence to support Israel’s atrocity propaganda. Nora Barrows-Friedman, Asa Winstanley, Ali Abunimah and Jon Elmer of The Electronic Intifada were joined by Donya Abu Sitta, contributor and journalist in the Gaza Strip, on the day 208 livestream.
