In the last two months, another case of sexual harassment of women and minors hit the headlines. At the center of it is the network star Elad Levy, who is suspected of rape and sexual assault.
Why is it that when it comes to a celeb who sexually harasses, the network is loud and crowded, but when an unknown person is accused, the case is buried deep in the police? Don't forget the hurt women in Israel, writes Yossi Ben-Ghiat, who has written a book about sexual harassment in Israel. "Don't let it hurt us in Hatunami," writes Ben-Ghiat. "The answer is simple - it does not bring ratings! The answer is that we need to do more to protect women and girls in Israel," he writes. "We need to stop the abuse of women in all its forms." It's time to do something about it, he adds. Roy Amos: 90% of women do not come to the police station to complain because they feel alone! Unaccompanied and from the feeling that they are not listened to and most of the time not believed either. Every day another woman is hurt and goes to bed with a heavy feeling of guilt and with the knowledge that even if she wants to complain to prevent the next case - no one will listen to her. I know that those who sexually hurt women who come to me hurt other women and will continue to do so.
