The mother of a woman whose body was paraded through the streets by Hamas has pleaded for help finding her daughter.

A video showing German tattoo artist Shani Louk on the back of a pickup truck circulated on social media after the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.

Louk had been attending an outdoor “Festival for Peace” party near Kibbutz Urim when the area was targeted. First, rockets were launched, then gunmen and appeared and shot into the crowd, CNN reported. Party attendees told the outlet people immediately started to flee, passing dead bodies on the ground as they tried to escape the massacre.

The attack and resulting conflict has left hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians dead, with Israel’s prime minister declaring war.

A video of a young woman with dreadlocks on the back of a pickup truck and surrounded by Hamas soldiers started circulating on social media shortly after the attack. In it, she appears stripped to her underwear, and her legs are bent at unnatural angles, while one soldier grabs her hair. People are also seen spitting on her body.

    And what will Germany do about one of their people being murdered in this way? Nothing. They’ll hide behind their mask of progressive European nation, and do nothing, while likely supporting the bad guys, just like they do with Russia.

    You can’t get Germans to do anything unless you wave money in their face

        You must have missed the part where a young German citizen was murdered. I’m a Canadian and my government is very similar to Germany’s in that they’re all talk. All image, but ultimately they only care about money

          So the Germans are supporting the bad guys, including Russia. Aha, good to know!

          Besides, what would you like them to do? Less talk more invasion of Palestine?

              seems more like you have an unhealthy media diet, considering you have decided on “genocidal fascist”

                How is it genocide to kill terrorists, terrorist isn’t an ethnic identity. Unless you’re saying that all Palestinians are terrorists, which I never said. I can tell the difference between a Hamas militant and a Palestinian civilian even if you can’t. I grew up in a war, I actually lived it, unlike your modern American/colonialist couch bound ass.

                  you’re the one calling for some revenge killing, also I couldn’t care less what war you grew up in, just as little as you don’t care where I’m from and just assume me to be an “American/Colonialist”, unless you have any interesting opinions on Eastern Europe you want to share as well? maybe some being upset about the US stopping the dual genocides in the Balkans?

      ya, we did the whole blood and soil bit in the 1930-1945, we have since decided that ethnic cleansing is not the answer to someone getting killed.

      or what would you say Germany do? go and start slaughtering the people in Gaza? maybe dig out the old playbooks, what was it 10 jews Muslims for every German killed? is that what you are calling for?

        I guess your answer is to do nothing. Kill Germans? It’s ok, we would hate to be seen as intolerant to terrorists, so just kill our citizens. But in truth, Germans would glass the entire continent if it meant they get more money

          If someone is murdered, do we hold the entire society accountable or just the one person who committed the crime?

          there are two options for what Germany could do, Nothing, or invade all of Israel, institute an occupational goverment and then rebuild the Israeli government with both Jews and Palestinians.

          on the other hand, your “do something” seems to be entirely kill everyone in Gaza as revenge against Hamas.

      Israel has German submarines (the German version, not the worse export version) that were gifted to them, especially suited to be used in the Persian Gulf, on the coast of Iran, where Hamas’ money and equipment come from.
