Rape is a weapon of power. Yes sometimes it can be about sex, but it is a tool of power to completely subjugate women. It has been used by every culture towards it's enemies. African tribes kidnap and rape other tribal women, some slave owners raped slaves, nazis raped jewish women, on and on ad nauseum.

Blaming rape on the female is nothing new in radical islam. I am not surprised about this at all. People shouldn't be surprised to find this thought form in radical islam. It was not so long ago I read that a woman was to be stoned to death for being raped and impregnated by her rapist (in Saudi Arabia or Nigeria not sure).

a recent story featured a Pakistani woman (if memory serves---Muslim to be certain) that was gang-raped as punishment for her brothers heinous crime of being seen walking or talking with a woman.

Such backward thinking about what justice is should provide us all the insight we can stand as to why these fools are so difficult to share a planet with.
