Chapters & Summary

Adam Levick introduces CAMERA UK and discusses a controversial 2024 article published by The Times regarding Hamas's use of rape as a weapon of war. The article, co-written by Katherine Phelp and Gabrielle Wener, effectively denied documented sexual violence despite widespread international documentation and acknowledgment from Israeli women's rights groups.

An Israeli women's rights representative interviewed for the Times article publicly condemned the publication for taking her words out of context. Ruth Halpern's public complaint on LinkedIn was shared with Times editors, but the article was never revised or apologized for, representing what Levick considers the worst journalism published by the outlet.

Levick explains how mainstream outlets like The Times and Guardian promote fringe extremist narratives by giving them mainstream credibility, particularly regarding anti-Israel and anti-feminist positions. He notes that journalists like Katherine Phelp, who identifies as feminist, have abandoned solidarity with Israeli and Jewish women after October 7th in favor of anti-Zionist ideology.
