"There is Rami Davidian, an emergency medical worker at the Nova site: “I saw girls tied up with their hands behind them to every tree here. Someone murdered them, raped them and abused them, here on these trees. Their legs were spread. Everyone who sees this knows right away that the girls were abused. Someone stripped them. Someone raped them. They inserted all kinds of things into their intimate organs, like wooden boards, iron rods. Over 30 girls were murdered and raped here.”"

But, but, The Intercept (and one useful idiot here), insists it never happened because so few women reported their attacks to rape crisis centers.

Ok, sorry to intrude on your various other serious and more meaningful conversations, never mind.
