Is Jihadism Chiefly Fueled By Sexual Dysfunction?

I've been saying this for years. We know the recipe for creating a psychopath: You take their normal sexual interests and you pervert them by telling them what is normal is sick and wicked.

You confuse them sexually, and then all that sexual energy, diverted from its normal healthy channels, seeks another outlet for expression.

Tell men that women are dirty, filthy whores created by Satan to mislead them and you'll create men who are attracted to the innocence of 13 year old girls. (And 13 year old boys.)

Psychic energy, like all other energy, can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be changed from one form to another.

A generation of domineering South Asian dads are being blamed for exacerbating the epidemic of young sexually frustrated kids in the West skipping town to go and fight for the so-called Islamic State.

After two years spent with dozens of convicted terrorists, repentant Islamists and a former fighter known as the Godfather of British Jihad, an Emmy award-winning documentary maker says there was a common theme running through almost everyone she interviewed: immigrant fathers who couldn't deal with the more open sexuality of the West, and who took out their own frustration on their children by abusing them and repressing their sexual urges.

"Nine times out of ten, look to the dad and you're gonna find he did something; beat them," Deeyah Khan told the Daily Beast. "I would blame the fathers absolutely."

Khan explores this subject deeply in her new film, Exposure: Jihad which is premiering on ITV in the U.K. Monday.

Strict fathers, and sometimes mothers, often refuse to accept their sons' fascination with girls, sports and the rest of the modern world—helping to create a situation where they felt isolated in their own homes just as they did as minorities in wider Western society. None of this forces young people into the arms of the jihadis, of course, but it helps to create an environment where radicalization can flourish.

Strict Muslim dads tell their boys their impulses are dirty.

But jihadists looking to recruit tell them they understand their feelings.*

One of the former Islamists featured in the documentary is Alyas Karmani, now an imam in Bradford. He said charismatic radicals sucked him into the world of international jihad. "When someone for the first time starts to understand you, emotionally support you--put that arm around you show compassion and love for you--that's unbelievably powerful and compelling," he says in the documentary.

Read the article; it's worth it. They note the position Muslim kids are in the West, and how they come to hate Westerners for doing what they wish to do, but cannot. If you can't join 'em, behead 'em.

* And boy do they. Jihadists are known to be big into porn, prostitutes, and rape.

Hardcore Muslim society excuses this, because they live 'hard lives" or something, and are doing Allah's will, beheading innocent people. If you murder people, you get to get your rocks off however you like. Even your rapes are holy.

Thus, a society has created a situation in which boys are not allowed to have a sexual interest in girls unless they become murderers.

What did you think was going to happen?
