What is it with ISIS and sexual slavery? I just read a story about how ISIS is selling women and children as sex slaves. The younger they are, the higher the price. Even children as young as one have been sold. And the women MUST be virgins so they can get married to the ISIS fighters. Again and again, it turns out. One woman complained she'd been sold and married 20 times, and each time she had to have her hymen rebuilt so she could be a technical virgin again. Another woman just murdered the man who sold her many times, an ISIS commander. The women and children are Yasidis, Christians and Shiites. Is it Islam's sexual repression that is causing this? Is it the spoils of war? Or does ISIS not have enough dinero to pay its fighters, thus they pay them with sex. I know muslim men are allowed to marry many women, but I didn't realize a woman could marry many men and pretend to be a virgin for each. Is that fucked up or what? https://uk.news.yahoo.com/mosul-iraqi-woman-kills-senior-163944712.html#eLWnaUf http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/aug/16/isis-systematic-rape-sharia-justification-sex-slavery
If we dial the clock back many many centuries it's pretty clear the old playbook is still the go to manual for conducting business. Slavery was never over. Killing the young men is more efficient now because there are so many. Way back when they were either blinded to become a burden to their own people, or castrated and sold into slavery. These days they're just killed in ever more clever ways (thanks to technology). The Islamic State has also been taking over resources and literally digging for gold (by bulldozing ancient sites). They have plenty of money. And oil. And an army of men and women who will win, or die. There is no other option for them. They will ultimately drive the western nations into a corner with existential implications. It has been the plan all along.
Yes, it's fucked up. With Chinese manufacturers leading the way, there are now non-surgical options on the market as well. One website sells artificial hymens for just £20 (23 euros). The Chinese hymen is made of elastic and filled with fake blood. Once inserted in the vagina, the woman can simulate virginity, the company claims. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8641099.stm They say the issue is about control. If a woman has been with another man then she is expericened. They say an experienced woman is a powerful woman. As far as being the spoils of war - I guess they are emulating their god. Doesn't he give away virgins for reward? Maybe he set the example for them.
I don't like reading about this. The only thing that makes me smile is one day, when these people die, I hope they meet their Idol, and I hope Hell is real.
I think that too, but with all the horrendous stuff you do see, this wouldn't be surprising in the least. The amount of pornography viewed by the Middle East is meant to be phenomenal. I can't help but think about our relaxed sexual culture and although I cannot sit and say we're completely at fault, porn these days is so aggressive and if it's that popular over there then no wonder sex slavery as payment is so rife.
It's beyond fucked up. These ISIS creeps want the way their society the way it was hundreds or thousands of years ago? Fine. Let's them have it. Take their guns away and let them fight to old way. Against our USMC. Hey, we had to set them muzzies straight a few hundred years back, looks like we should do it again.
I think you'll find many of the men fighting for ISIS are dying at greater rate than anyone else involved Not that anyones going to give a shit about those fighters But its what always happens in this type of thing, eventually run out of money, resources, land to conquer Start to turn on themselves, the ones in power get more brutal to deter deserters I doubt the they have plenty of money thing, cos there will always be the head honchos that start tucking it away. The land they can conquer is rather limited
Porn is very restricted in that part of the world. In fact it's very hard to come by and they can't access it online as easily as we can. Interestingly enough, sexual assault rates are much higher in places where porn is illegal than in places where it is not.
