Heb. U. Paper Finds: IDF Has Political Motives for Not Raping Hebrew University committee prize-winning paper finds that the lack of IDF rapes of Palestinian women is designed to serve a political purpose. Hillel Fendel Dec 23, 2007

»A research paper that won a Hebrew University teachers' committee prize finds that the lack of IDF rapes of Palestinian women is designed to serve a political purpose.

The abstract of the paper, authored by doctoral candidate Tal Nitzan, notes that the paper shows that "the lack of organized military rape is an alternate way of realizing [particular] political goals."

The next sentence delineates the particular goals that are realized in this manner: "In the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, it can be seen that the lack of military rape merely strengthens the ethnic boundaries and clarifies the inter-ethnic differences - just as organized military rape would have done."

The paper further theorizes that Arab women in Judea and Samaria are not raped by IDF soldiers because the women are de-humanized in the soldiers' eyes.« tickle me 01:51, 9 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I don’t think so, given Ms. Nitzan’s age. I think the article may have an error and the student might be Nitzan Tal, now with Cornell (https://complit.cornell.edu/nitzan-tal ). 96.19.249.54 (talk) 00:47, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
