Another horrific rape in India encapsulates the War Against Women.
“Indian state passes law seeking death penalty for rapists after rape and murder of doctor.”
“The doctor's murder sparked strikes by medics and rallies backed by thousands of ordinary citizens across India, although many doctors have since returned to work.”
"We want justice," read one sign at the rally. "Hang the rapist, save the women," read another.”
"Monstrous behavior against women!"
History of sexual violence in India
“Sexual violence against women is a widespread problem in India. An average of nearly 90 rapes a day were reported in India in 2022, according to data from the National Crime Records Bureau.
That year, police arrested 11 people after the alleged brutal gang rape and torture of a young woman that included her being paraded through the streets of Dehli. Also in 2022, a police officer in India was arrested after being accused of raping a 13-year-old girl who went to his station to report she had been gang-raped.”
“Patriarchy Is Regaining Ground Secretary-General Warns, while Women’s, Girls’ Rights Face Unprecedented Threats in 2024.”
Not all men, but always a man.

There is a War Against Women. And it is global.
