A paragraph from the article that I considered particularly relevant:
"The biggest difficulty is evidentiary, explains Gas. Using evidence to link a specific crime to a specific defendant when dealing with dozens of crime scenes, where hundreds of suspects were caught and thousands of offenses were committed, is almost impossible. "The usual laws of evidence are not suitable for this event. There are no organized chains of evidence, there is no one who filmed the videos you want to present in court."
It's not only about what happened, but also about exactly who committed what crime. But yes, the paragraphs posted here are quite damning.
The initial Israeli and western media claims were that there were mountains of evidence and Hamas used rape as a weapon of war.
I strongly recommend people use a timed search filter to go back and read the original articles. The IDF and western media claimed there was a mountain of confirmed undeniable evidence.
What will happen is similar to the 40 beheaded babies which was spread by the IDF: Israel will make a straight faced lie that they never made the claim of rapes. And blame it on some misinterpretation by a journalist. Similar to the 40 beheaded babies, this claim was made directly by the IDF itself.
