LogicIsForSquares Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Its muslim culture apparently. Yeah we get an ear beating about how Islam is no different than Christianity while soldiers are having to allow rape due to it being Muslim cultural norms. Either you accept that Islam is fucked up and OK child rape or you put a stop to it and accept that Islam is fucked. People can't have it both ways.

Clevfan4life Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 I read that and was confused, cause you do that in Iran and you get put in a burlap sack and tossed off a mountain. Not sure if this is a shia vs sunni thing or just how Afghani men get down. I read the kiteflyer a few years ago, amazing book I recommend it to everyone....the narrator talked about having shit like this happen to him. Happens when they're all boys too. I don't get it either. Really don't understand why servicemen had to tolerate it, especially on base? Yeah they've got to get to the bottom of that. If that order came from the admin than we've got to hear about that. I "partially" understand looking the other way off base...cause you aren't gonna stop that shit and trying to might start an int incident. But there should have been a policy on base that the Afghani's should have been made crystal clear aware of.....you pull that shit on base and you go missing. One of those unfortunate disapearances that happens in war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicIsForSquares Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 A girl I work with spent a year teaching english in the UAE. She said boys would use rape to control the weaker boys. This was in one of the richest countries in the Middle East. She was a white woman in another country so her opinion on it meant very little to the men running the school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Sick. Criminally insane. I would say, let's pull our troops the hell out of that stinkhole if that is their "culture". Let them defend it - but if terrorism bases occur there again, flat out almost nuke em. I can understand not wanting our troops to be lured into an ambush, but this president orders that to be overlooked? stupid, "islam" favoring sumbeech.

LogicIsForSquares Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Also, you can find plenty of verses in the Koran that give rape the thumbs up. Hell, they have all sorts of rules for war trophies ad concubines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saudis and the UAE are rich and have access to modern education but still rape other men as a form of punishment. Arguably in the US rape is acceptable because of the way it is portrayed as the victims fault. "if you didn't want to get raped, you shouldn't have been so pretty, you know men are just one dimensional beasts whose raging testes they cannot control" etc. Also, rape is an accepted part of the culture in places like India as well. Not particularly a Muslim thing, more a backwards country thing. How much Islam is to blame for that backwardness is up for debate. I'm sure plenty, but other things as well. Btw, when I say accepted/acceptable I don't mean you walk in on someone raping someone else and you're like "ok have at it" - more like "someone got raped? Oh well, just another one on the list" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Yes, we accept it with life in prison or in some states the death penalty. Very acceptable.... I think I didn't make myself well understood on that one. A bit like gun violence - of course, everyone thinks it's a bad thing, but then there's a general "well whaddaya gonna do..." attitude. Then there's this guy claiming that when a priest rapes a boy "the boy is culpable." I'm not saying people are fine with it, like I said. Like people aren't fine with gangs, but hey, what are you gonna do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rape is not brushed off here as " just another" type thing. It is taken so serious here that rapists have to have themselves put into special protection in our prisons. Even career scumbags know that rape is unacceptable and will murder them on sight. So no, it isn't just shrugged off in the States like "just another" type thing.

But everything you read from "women shouldn't dress provocatively" to "you can't get pregnant from rape" indicates that people making the decisions have an attitude towards rape than isn't exactly 'all out war' against rapists.

gftChris Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Of course, if you take a cynical look, you could argue people are only saying that (you can't get pregnant from rape) to try to strengthen anti-abortion stances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Steve Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 No, Chris, we understand. I'm sure the practice of chaining a little boy to the bed to be used as sex slave is very very similar to a drunk chick naked in some guys bed who decides at the last second she's made a bad choice. Good call on your part. Since we are going down this path I would wonder if that practice was left over by the British occupation? What do you think?

Clevfan4life Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Here's something interesting, the Taliban banned the practice under penalty of severe torture when they were in power in Afghanistan. So radical Islam is against this. Let's recap, the people we were helping to control and rule the country were the pedo's.....the radical Islamist terrorists, whom we're trying to get rid of....are the anti boy fuckers. You can't write this. That place is a fucking cultural rubix cube, we have GOT to get the fuck out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
