Most radical Islamic jihadis claim to be devout Muslims who promote the spread of strict conservative Islamic societal principles, yet it has been continuously documented through the years that many of those Muslim extremists are chronically addicted to sex and pornography.
Jihadis' obsession with porn and sex is not a new phenomenon that is only being seen today through the "brutal" and "instinctive" sex drive of the Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria. Even the late Osama Bin Laden, the world-famous leader of Al Qaeda, had a huge collection of porn that was found by Navy Seals who searched his compound when he was killed. Additionally, police raids of terrorist cells in the Europe since 9/11 have revealed "countless" images of child porn, The New York Post reported.
Islamic terrorists being addicted to porn exposes a double standard, especially for those jihadis who blame America and the West for polluting the world with sexual desire, filth and sin.
A number of theories have been proposed as to why pornagraphy use is so prevalent among these "conservative" radical extremists.
With over 500 Britons having fled to Syria to join the military ranks of ISIS, London Mayor Boris Johnson offered his opinion recently when he told The Sun that jihadis are nothing more than porn-driven "losers" who suffer from "self-esteem" issues and have trouble getting women.
"They are tortured. They will be very badly adjusted in their relations with women, and that is a symptom of their feeling of being failures and that the world is against them," Johnson explained. "They are not making it with girls and so they turn to other forms of spiritual comfort – which of course is no comfort…They are just young men in desperate need of self-esteem who do not have a particular mission in life, who feel that they are losers and this thing makes them feel strong – like winners."
Speaking on a panel moderated by Princeton professor Robert George in December, president of Zaytuna College in Berkeley, Calif., Hamza Yusuf, opined that many young Muslims become so "defiled" by porn to the extent that they blame the West for corrupting them and eventually turn to jihad for redemption.
"I really think that we underestimate the amount of people that have this experience of wanting to restore some kind of purity to themselves," Yusuf said, "And the only restoration for them is blowing themselves up and get rid of the part that is the source of my defilement, which is [their] body."
Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, criticized Yusuf's theory in an interview with the Investigative Project on Terrorism after the panel, and said it is not pornography that drives jihadis to war but rather the extremist mindset.
Jasser reasoned that so many jihadis get hooked on sex and porn because they ultimately think that no matter what they do on Earth, they will go to heaven as martyrs.
"Most of the evidence is that the 9/11 hijackers had prostitutes and visited bars before the attacks," Jasser said. "They had a sense of their going to heaven to be martyrs and that their acts on Earth seemed less important."
Although jihadis' porn use is mostly for their pleasure, terrorists have in the past used child porn images and websites as secure outlets to pass information between terrorists, through the use of embedded messages.
In 2008, it was reported that British anti-terrorism agents uncovered the use of child porn images by terrorists to send encoded messages to each other. In one case over 40,000 child images are shared between terrorists. And in 2010-2011, German investigators uncovered 100 Al Qaeda documents embedded within a porn film that related to terrorism plots.
"The information about a possible link between extremism and child pornography potentially provides useful insight into three things: the methods that extremists use to communicate; the methods they use to target vulnerable people in society; and the techniques they seek to use to conceal their online activities," the former chairwoman of the British Joint Intelligence Committee, Baroness Neville-Jones told Times Online.
"There is no doubt that these possible linkages should merit further research," she added.
And if they aren’t islamic, why do we arrest them and immediately give them a koran and provide halal meals?
Why are weapons developed since the times of Mad Mo’ not fatwad as haram?
There is no commandment in the Koran against looking at porn. Women are of a lower level than man anyway so porn is OK.
The reason that Christians are forbidden to look at porn is that it leads to spiritual adultery which is as bad or worse than physical adultery. It is trespassing the 6th Commandment and, as far as I know, the Koran does not have definite commandments to live by.
In some psychotics, addiction to pornography leads directly to more that fifty shades of violence and murder, according to Dobson’s interview with Ted Bundy. Other murderers also have confirmed that porn was the road they travelled.
“If Islamic Terrorists Are Devout Muslims, Why Are They Hooked on Porn?”
Because they’re running out of camels. Why are camels called ships of the desert? Because they’re filled with ISIS seamen.
Shorter explanation: There is a code of conduct with respect to Muslim women; infidel women are fair game.
This is a huge mistake to try to look at islam through Christian lens. It is not an apples to apples situation.
Eventually and if not too late, it will come down to the only good muslim is a dead muslim and the muslims and their liberal friends will force it to happen.
Saudi businessmen keep a lot of the strip clubs in this country in business.
Gee, there are TONS of Christian men hooked on porn, are they not Christian? They are Christians, albeit sinning Christians, but Christians.
Code of conduct toward muslim women????? Please enlighten us.
I know a few Middle Eastern (but Christian) individuals.
They have long asserted that there is a weakness of character in far too many in that region of the earth, particularly (or specifically) the Muslims. They are sheep quick to form a herd in the hope of being regarded as predators.
Their ‘principles’ are anything but; they would swear allegiance to the man in the moon if it meant a hot meal and a cigarette. In this they are indistinguishable from thugs in Africa, Southeast Asia, etc. They may be taking a bit more of a long view by claiming to be devout Muslims but the motivations are the same: fear of being ostracized and mocked (apart from the more violent manifestations of differences).
They are born feeling inferior and their rage at real or perceived inferiority only creates a destructive cycle.
Their subjugation of women is as nonsensical as it is late-arriving but it is another example of a desperate clutch-and-grab mindset. Like feral cats they manage to snare a female and then drag their unfortunate victim off to a quiet corner lest they experience competition and - you guessed it - more rage born of an infantile reaction to perceived threats.
Weapons in the hands of Third World zealots have wrought terrible destruction and bloodshed but the most insidious bit of Western technology introduced to Muslims may be the humble camera. They cannot get over their childlike fascination with seeing their images and using photos and video as propaganda. The ‘devout Muslims’ marching with their signs (supplied by some of the few literate ones) and chanting are mere props on a stage. Besides, they certainly have nothing better to do.
As one columnist noted shortly after 9/11, the Muslim fights an unwinnable war against modernity but that doesn’t mean he won’t try to scorch the earth in the process.
Someone is not listening to our dear leader. They are not Islamists.. They are simply guys/gals who weren’t hugged enough by their mommies and have been bullied all their wicked lives. He means to change that and make them feel loved. He doesn’t see them as a lost cause......
I suggest he take his little family and get over there and give them the hugs they so dearly pine for. And he doesn’t need to return. We can do nicely without him, thank you very much. And we will try very hard to put the pieces of our country back together and forget we ever heard his name - IF WE’RE LUCKY!
Because those who can’t get the real thing are forced to settle for substitutes.
Muslim men are never taught self control. The reason they have their women dress in burkas is to remove the temptation of the sight of a woman. When they see a western woman dressed in less than full burka, they are taught that the woman is a whore and is “asking for it”. In Islamic countries, the men will stalk western women and rape them if they get a chance.
“Code of conduct toward muslim women????? Please enlighten us.”
For one thing, if they are married Muslim women and you rape them, they are stoned for adultery.
If they are kaffir women, they are slaves or concubines and you can rape them all you like or sell them to your friends.
Porn re-enforces and justifies this degradation of women.
Because islam is the worship of satan?
And why was Bin Laden given an islamic ceremony while being buried at sea?
