Some were raped and some were able to fend off a sexual attack.
FORCED marriage. If one is FORCED to marry, any sexual contact is rape. You think they're marrying these women and not having sex with them?
Arranged marriage is a different beast. AND I would say that a woman who does NOT want to marry and is FORCED marry that any sexual contact is then rape.
I'm calling bull**** that they could beat off a determined rapist and if they had something from the raped women I would believe them as long as the rest of their story checks out. As it is there are other elements to the story that can be mentioned until more info on the fate of the local women are when ISIS is the town government meaning the shooting has stopped. That alone put them as being in control but now the electricity and stuff has to also be put into working condition not only just for the 'rulers' but for the locals as well. Water, food, shelter is something the locals will accept from whoever and from 'all reports' ISIS 'has connections' so if they make the conditions better they will be greeted warmly. That still leaves open the question of all the ones that have run away, do they get to return or if their refugee location their new home. If they are being pushed into Syria from Iraq then would their fate not be the same as the ones in Syria that just got pushed into Turkey from northern Syria.
If it could be an issue the ICC would take up you would get no complaints from me, I would hope the trail would involve a review of more material than just that. I would support the same kinds of cases from other parts of the world as having validity also. In reality that doesn't have a very good chance of being the best option at the moment.
In this instance under 'their law' and that a 'binding marriage' took place would the man have to treat her as a 'respected wife' for life or is she locked in a dungeon and used as a sex slave for as long as he chooses to let her live? I don't think you have proved it happens like that although it could happen and much worse has happened in other cases. In this case if all the captured ones made it back and the message they had would have been. As the vid also mentioned a curfew and instructions came via the local mosque. Rules for sure but it doesn't qualify as being bloodthirsty. This is from the western media, that isn't me producing and releasing the videos. When it isn't random then there is a plan. Almost any plan is better than random. When it involves making people 'suffer' so the 'good times' they create will seem all the better and that means they are in power by the will of the people rather than by hook or by crook, which is the standard of todays methods.
Why would you think that (Jewish) bankers letting loose $11T into the world's economy would be treated by 'boo's' by me. Can I 'boo' them if they could and should make that happen but they won't because it's not worth the effort or some such insurmountable issue?
As it is the 'projected facts of the West' fail the test of time more often than not. At what ratio do you listen and ten verify their claims before accepting them as facts? Is there any such point?
Women being sold off...it's unlikely they're being used to clean the house. Forced marriage = rape/sexual assault.
How many of the older ones left standing on the sidewalks after their young helpers have been 'kidnapped'. Have you seen anything put out by ISIS that claims rape is acceptable, I'm not going to dispute the forced marriage part put I think your version of it being a rape fest is a bit of western fantasy compared to 'real life'. You do not rape a woman many times and then fall asleep beside her and expect to wake up.
Since this is an evolving story here is another issue that can be 'explored'. I have stated that in Afghanistan in the '70 the university students started getting rid of the 'old rules' and in this instance if ISIS is insisting on things like face coverings and being escorted are the standard then 'down the road' the government listening to the 'will of the people' would see those rules set aside and rather than becoming like Saudi it takes on the looks of modern Iran as far as dress codes and education possibilities and such as money is not in short supply with ISIS. Where it comes from at the moment isn't important that their pockets are deep and it doesn't all go for war will be the ways ISIS crosses the isle from bad guy to good guy. Rather than Syria falling it will be Saudi the gets their 6 1/2 day war and that money will be showered on the people and their goes any opposition to them being in power for the next 100 years or so. If that was to unfold you (and the rest of NA) would have to accept them right?

lol, I knew you would say that, says a lot about you. Something like my new little friend.
