Call me crazy, but I think that the UN warning of an epidemic of aid workers sexually abusing women in Gaza is a PRETTY BIG DEAL.

From an April report:
Humanitarian actors must scale up their PSEA [Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse] and Safeguarding capacity to prevent an epidemic of SEA abuses committed by personnel related to humanitarian operations. This should be also seconded by programmatic actions to protect the most vulnerable from sexual exploitation and abuse by aid workers but also other actors.

I had previously quoted another UN report from May that some women in Gaza prefer to go without food rather than subject themselves to sexual abuse while queuing for aid; and that aid workers were forcing some women into prostitution in exchange for aid.

Insufficient and unreliable aid, distributed under conditions of insecurity that do not allow adequate targeting, expose vulnerable groups to violence, exploitation and abuse, trafficking and forced prostitution, including by aid workers.

Somehow, this didn't make it into the @NYTimes or @CNN or @Reuters.

Completely unfounded Hamas lies about the IDF abusing women get quoted in news articles without evidence, but multiple UN reports confirming actual sexual abuse by the people who are meant to help Gazans are ignored. (And this sexual abuse by aid workers has been going on for years, evidenced by hotlines and advertising in Gaza to report such abuse.)

Major media has reported on sexual abuse by UN members in the CAR, DRC, and Haiti, among other places. But not a word about Gaza, even when it has dominated headlines for nine months.

The news media aren't merely biased. They actively work to quash stories that don't fit their narratives and goals.
