Count on it. It’s a Muslim thing.

Marocchinate, (Italian for “Moroccans’ deeds”) is a term applied to the mass rape and killings committed during World War II after the Battle of Monte Cassino in Italy.

These were committed mainly by the Moroccan Goumiers, colonial troops of the French Expeditionary Corps (FEC),[1] commanded by General Alphonse Juin, and mostly targeted civilian women and girls (as well as a few men and boys) in the rural areas of Southern Lazio, between Naples and Rome.

Mass rapes continued across all the campaign including several locations in Tuscany: Siena, ad Abbadia S. Salvatore, Radicofani, Murlo, Strove, Poggibonsi, Elsa, S. Quirico d’Orcia, Colle Val d’Elsa.

My ex’s aunt survived that in Italy. As a result of her sweetheart being killed and then this (she was a teen at the time), she never married. Or talked about it.
