president of Israel is a rapist
Why is everyone afraid to say this?
JERUSALEM
President Moshe Katsav pleaded guilty on Thursday to committing sexual crimes against women employees, signing a plea bargain that will keep him out of jail, Israel’s attorney-general said.
They call it “sexual crimes” or “sexual offences”…If we’re going to actually address the problem here, this institutional violence against women, at the very least, we need to call it what it is: rape.
President Moshe Katzav needs to be properly charged and their government needs to change the patriarchal climate so it doesn’t happen again. Talking around the issue and pretending it is something else, or something less, functions to keep other victims quiet…which I suppose is the point here.
