How could anyone, any sentient, caring human being take CHILDREN hostages, VIOLATE them and MURDER them?

Just my opinion, but you are very close to the truth. As Fred said a few posts above, even animals do not do such things. Only humans are capable of such depravity.

And you are correct to ask, what must happen to a person, what must change in their heart, to permit such depravity?

Of course, there is no proof for an answer...proof is that which can be seen and poked at and touch and measured.

Yet there is an answer...Islam is demonic...Islam is Satanic.

Frightening? Yes.

Is there another explanation? I don't know of one, but I am open minded if you can suggest one.

I don't think there is any other explanation -- have you ever noticed the similarity between revelations talk about a false prophet and the number 666: now I think John of Patmos didn't see it clearly enough -- the number would be 786, a particularly revered number inIslam (I don't know why). John talks of people with the sign of Satan on them (any similarities to the slamic practice of wearing koranic verses on them?

The very origin of the name allah, a corruption of Al-Uzza; the name of the planet Venus, The Morning and Evening Star, also known as Lucifer The Fallen Star by the ancients would tend toward your understanding that islam is a satanic belief.
