From "Biden Says He’ll Shoot Down Chinese Spy Balloon As Soon As He’s Done Letting It Spy” to listing “15 Reasons Completely Unrelated To The Vaccine People Are Dying Suddenly,” the Babylon Bee has never suffered from a shortage of hilariously (and often painfully) on-the-nose satirical headlines - many of which turned out to be just a little too close to reality for comfort.
But this latest offering might be the best one yet.
In an open mockery of leftist pro-Palestine terrorism supporters who continue to deny the proven sexual assault of Israeli women and girls by barbaric Hamas terrorists during their attack on October 7, the Babylon Bee reported - satirically, of course, lest the disingenuous “fact checkers” come for us - that once-convicted rapist Bill Cosby had joined Hamas in hopes that liberals would overlook his drugging women for the purposes of sexually abusing them.

And, as is so often the case, the Bee hit pretty close to home. Leftists, many of them verified on X, have openly denied that any women or girls were sexually assaulted by Hamas, despite video evidence reviewed by hundreds of independent journalists that show terrorists filming themselves raping female victims, including children.
Providing no evidence, @StateDeptSpox advances theory that unreleased female Israeli hostages are rape victims who Hamas withheld bc they don't want them to speak publicly about their treatment.

Hillary Clinton literally spread lies about mass rape in Libya to justify bombing Libya into the Stone Age.

It is Hillary Clinton and the neocons who use rape as a weapon of war, not Hamas. https://t.co/LhP7wE40EW
The key word here is "stories." To date, there is no physical evidence of rape by Hamas militants, nor any purported rape victims offering direct testimony.

Some have even gone so far as to insist that hostages released by Hamas were treated well, ignoring confirmed reports that many said they were threatened by the terrorists not to tell the truth about what happened to them in captivity.

At the same time, terrorism shills in Congress brushed off reports of widespread rape and abuse by Hamas by offering all kinds of “yeah, but” reasons why Israel is definitely worse.
Dear @PramilaJayapal: When your answer is “but and “however” to a question about rape as a weapon of war by Hamas against Jewish women and teens, you know that you’ve been drinking the @CAIRNational kool-aid too long.

The Babylon Bee mocked the left’s whitewashing of violent rape by joking that all it’d take for Cosby to earn his way back into their good graces is to identify as a Muslim, Jew-hating militant, writing:
Former comedy legend and prolific rapist Bill Cosby announced outside his home this week that he has officially joined the terrorist group Hamas in an apparent attempt to convince progressive feminists to stop criticizing his raping behavior.
"Those Hamas people... they rape, and they rape all the day long and the left-wing feminists still love them," said Cosby to reporters. "So now, I am a 'Hamas.' As-salamu alaykum. Please do not criticize my raping, which is a legitimate act of decolonization and resistance. Allahu Akbar. Thank you.”
Ouch. And the hit landed.
Bill didn't even break any pelvises, this should be an easy sell
