ALL SERIAL KILLERS, almost without exception, are severely sexually abused as children. The kind of people who hijack a plane with innocent people and drive it into a building with thousands of other innocent people are related to this phenomenon.
When sociopaths rape and kill, they do not see their victims as human beings, but only as objects. This is because the sociopaths were themselves, at one time, used as objects as their bodily integrity was repeatedly violated. The rage that results from sexual abuse is one thing, but when combined with living in a dysfunctional culture of sexual repression and misogyny, where love is reduced to violent domination, it is quite another.
Throughout the Islamic Middle East, men and women are taught to be vehemently opposed to pleasure, especially of the sexual variety. Men are raised not only forbidden to touch women, but to even look at them. Sex before marriage is not just a sin -- but a criminal offence. It is punishable by a severe beating at best, and an execution at worst.
The sexual privileges that are allowed in Islamic cultures are permitted to men. Women’s sexuality and social independence represent major threats to male supremacy and are tightly controlled. Thus, as the Moroccan feminist Fitna Sabbah reveals in her book Woman in the Muslim Unconscious, there is a disturbing conflict in the Middle East between sexual libido and repression. A deep-seated fear of, and hostility to, individuality prevails, and its main expression exists in misogyny.
Socially segregated from women, Arab men succumb to homosexual behavior. But, interestingly enough, there is no word for "homosexual" in their culture in the modern Western sense. That is because having sex with boys, or with effeminate men, is seen as a social norm. Males serve as available substitutes for unavailable women. The male who does the penetrating, meanwhile, is not emasculated any more than if he had sex with a wife. The male who is penetrated is emasculated. The boy, however, is not, since it is rationalized that he is not yet a man.
In this culture, males sexually penetrating males becomes a manifestation of male power, conferring a status of hyper-masculinity. It is considered to have nothing to do with homosexuality. An unmarried man who has sex with boys is simply doing what men do. As the scholar Bruce Dunne has demonstrated, sex in Islamic societies is not about mutuality between partners, but about the adult male's achievement of pleasure through violent domination.
There is silence around this issue. It is the silence that legitimizes sexual violence against women, such as honor crimes and female circumcision. It is also the silence that forces victimized Arab boys into invisibility. Even though the society does not see their sexual exploitation as being humiliating, the psychological and emotional scars that result from their subordination, powerlessness and humiliation is a given. Traumatized by the violation of their dignity and manliness, they spend the rest of their lives trying to get it back.
The problem is that trying to recover from sexual abuse, and to recapture one’s own shattered masculinity, is quite an ordeal in a culture where women are hated and love is interpreted as hegemonic control.
With women out of touch ?and out of sight -- until marriage, males experience pre-marital sex only in the confines of being with other males. Their sexual outlet mostly includes victimizing younger males ?just the way they were victimized.
In all of these circumstances, the idea of love is removed from men's understanding of sexuality. Like the essence of Arab masculinity, it is reduced to hurting others by violence. A gigantic rupture develops between men and women, where no harmony, affection or equality is allowed to exist. In relationships between men, meanwhile, affection, solidarity and empathy are left out of the picture. They threaten the hyper-masculine order.
It is excruciating to imagine the sexual confusion, humiliation, and repression that evolve in the mindsets of males in this culture. But it is no surprise that many of these males find their only avenue for gratification in the act of humiliating the foreign "enemy," whose masculinity must be violated at all costs ?as theirs once was.
Violating the masculinity of the enemy necessitates the dishing out of severe violence against him. In the recent terrorist strikes, therefore, violence against Americans served as a much-needed release of the terrorists?bottled-up sexual rage. Moreover, it served as a desperate and pathological testament of the re-masculinization of their emasculated selves.

Store owner: "Are you speaking about me, infidel dog? I am a man and that thing under the pile of curtains is most certainly a woman! Now you must die, American pig!"
Innocent American: "Bang!"

What a sick, pathetic lot they are.
I'll remember this the next time some twit starts touting the "virtues" of Islam on this forum. It's also further proof to me that the world would be a far better place without Islam or its avid practitioners............but hey, that's just me.
For every man with four wives there are three men stuck humping each other. Simple arithmetic.
But you can't argue with this fact. Anyone know what percentage of the male population has multiple wives? Does anyone know how many permanently unmarried men there are?
Back in the US, some of us were discussing girls, and the guys were bragging about their girlfriends and such. An arab student in our class took his turn, and with a wide grin, described how he raped a young Phillipino servant in his house from behind. We couldn't believe it.
Some of the guys thought it was a joke, and called him a "fag." He looked puzzled for a moment, then, recognizing the word, explained that he was the "man" and did the penetrating--so it was OK.
Therefore, the only solution is do a sex change surgery on him and
send 'her' back to the Taliban to live as a woman in their society...
The liberals among us will use this tripe as an excuse for education and not annihilation of our enemy. The only way information like this is useful is, if in knowing so would give us insight to our enemy, and aid us in their destruction. This article obviously falls short of that objective and lends to the idea that somehow we should have pity on the thugs that have murdered innocent Americans.
Yech!
Taking this psychobabble further, you could say the attack on the WTC was a savage "castration" of American males and the plane ramming into the circular Pentagon was a "rape" of America's females.
How I despise them!
Original camels had flat backs. The hump(s) is/are cuased by............. ;-)
So because he was loved as a child, now that he killed in Columbine, it must be out of love? There are many indications of kids well taken care of who enjoy killing.
This leftist axiomatic nonsense and witchcraft is getting funnier every day, the concept of G_d then becomes much more appealing considering the idiotic garbbage spewed forth.
ROFL Good one!
You stole that line from Jay Leno (last night on TV)! He did have some pretty good Taliban jokes last night. Time for the comedians to start unloading on the enemy.
