Tenn-- you are so well informed, could you please post some articles about how Americans, or Israelis for that matter, rape their male and female prisoners of war? Thx.
Possible not their prisoners but their comrades in arms...for a few, and sorry to say, not a infantessamal tiny ..but enough to make it a problem.

IDF is the Israeli Defense Forces. I grant you it is a older article, 2006...you want to push it, I can go bring links more up to date. It also is a problem in US forces , I know that is true , I can get those links too.
Some of the comments, from the first one and on , putting it all on the Islamic yadda, yadda..from some I expect that here but the point is just to type with out thinking and doing a little , very little research , emotional venting doesn't do any one any good.
Not the poster when it's pointed out how off the wall they are, not the reader who gets all the wrong ideas and information so next time they see a post from that individual, little interest, the source is tainted.
There is very little information on the attack. She is at her Virginia home recovering and no more comments from CBS or herself, wants some privacy.
At first when I heard it my mind went to the perps were the security forces.
However no mention of them specifically, just that a mob of 200 men , who were very boisterous , separation from her camera crew and the security that was when them.
200 males in a frenzy, she is lucky to be alive.
It sounds from the lines printed it was a vicious sexual assault , saved by Egyptian woman and Egyptian soldiers who saved her.
Little chance , as said , as to finding the perps.
To throw in the Brother Hood, Islamic fundamentalist , Islamic feelings toward woman and all that crap, while from the sources here , on the zone not unexpected, here is a problem in the IDF .
It happens in our military, enough that it is a concern, sexual attacks of woman in the military by their fellow members.{Need link, easily gotten}
For some men, throughout the world, the abuse of woman, many times in conjunction with other males in a mob, not uncommon.
When they say many men are Pigs..it's true.
Last night I had on PBS, midnight, time to go to catch some zzzz's , a special comes on , woman being sold into sexual slavery, a documentary, Soviet Union, through Turkey, over the Bosporus.
The girls are young, they are attractive. What 17 year old girl, make up, dress as kids do..aren't attractive. Uneducated, nothing for them where they live , poverty, ads in paper , work over seas , $200 per month. Work is they are sold to pimps , the #'s are horrendous, estimated in US, not bad 20,000 plus, Russia,Turkey, Spain, France. Germany, {big time } 100's of thousands..sold into slavery, sexual.
While some woman might pay for a man..granted, it's a male thing, and to keep them , brutality.
Hard to watch the documentary ..couldn't shut off..everyone in on it, the police , pimps and traffickers not prosecuted or looked to stop, all countries have the laws on the books..girls are picked up in a raid..they are deported back tot heir countries,,the pimps and others involved..nada .
So, many men..they are pigs
The ones who did this attack ..Pigs.
That they were of the Muslim faith..possible because the great majority of those who live there, Egypt are Muslims no other reason.
Nothing to do with Brother Hood, fundamentalist, Mubarak, what comes after him, Israel..
Just a mob of males who are pigs who ,most likely if they consider them selves religious their religion probably was Muslim.
