What does it have to do with Islam? Read Ms. Logans own words, as printed in the New York Times as well as in the OP of this thread:



And further, this didnt occur in a vacuum, Islamic societies are notorious for their treatment of women. My point in it is that its a reality that many are determined to remain willfully ignorant of, and I believe that point has been well made here in this thread.

Islamic societies are not and do not have a history of gang rape. Under Sharia law, the punishment for rape is death. It is not tolerated.

However, the mob was in control and I doubt that it was directly linked to the worship of Islam.

I would also like to point out that Christians of RECENT history have committed gang rape. I would remind Sanity of the wars in former Yugoslavia and the Gang Rapes committed by the Serbs, who were Orthodox Christians. It has been estimated that during the Bosnian War between 20,000 and 50,000 women were raped. The majority of the rape victims were Muslim women raped by Serbian soldiers. Although men also became victim of sexual violence, war rape was disproportionately directed against women who were (gang) raped in the streets, in their homes and/or in front of family members.

During the Kosovo War thousands of Kosovo Albanian women and girls became victims of sexual violence. War rape was used as a weapon of war and an instrument of systematic ethnic cleansing; rape was used to terrorize the civilian population, extort money from families, and force people to flee their homes. According to a 2000 Human Rights Watch report war rape in the Kosovo War can generally be subdivided into three categories: rapes in women's homes, rapes during fighting, and rapes in detention. The majority of the perpetrators were Serbian paramilitaries, but they also included Serbian special police or Yugoslav army soldiers. Most rapes were gang rapes involving at least two perpetrators. Rapes occurred frequently in the presence, and with the acquiescence, of military officers. Soldiers, police, and paramilitaries often raped their victims in the full view of numerous witnesses.

Of course, there have been gang rapes committed by American Soldiers in Iraq.

Of course Sanity will minimize these instances because of the alleged numbers involved. I would suggest, however, that it is not numbers that matter in these incidents, but the very act in and of itself.

JLF, this is why I don't like any "religions."
As for muslims they're like Holy Rollers times 10. I want nothing to do with them. Call me "islamophobic" if you like. I don't know where this type of *thinking* comes from that one has to "like" everyone. Who makes up that silly fucking horseshit???
As for Bosnia and Kosovo, when are we (The U.S.) going to start minding our own fucking business? Are the Taxpayers just out here to pay for "*perpetual war?"* Is that why we exist?
"Serbians", "Kosovo", "Albaniana", I couldn't care less, it's not my country.
It's not the job of the U.S. to be going around the world getting involved in the internal affairs of foreign countries then letting in "refugees" in from those countries to the U.S. and putting them on *public assistance* for generations.
They can use the terms "holocaust", "genocide", "ethnic cleansing", (where did they come up with that one?) or whatever they want to try to make the American People "feel sorry" for someone but it doesn't work anymore! Look at the outcry from people about Libya.
The American People are tired of this shit, foreign countries trying to turn "their" problems into our problems and making us *pay* for everything!
Those countries need to fight their own wars and have their own holocausts and stay away from the U.S.! I don't want to be their "friend!"
The people in Washington need to learn how to say "NO!" They're not there to solve the problems of foreign countries!

You agree that she was targeted.
Who would have a motive?
Mubaric's thugs or "crowd mentality"

Many people still do not understand how much different things are in an observant Islamic society
