scorpiojo, I couldn't see the woman clearly – and I’m looking at a decent flat screen. That's why I don't understand why it's been described as ‘scenes of violent gang rape’. It’s hardly ‘graphic’ - and no doubt any mistranslation would have been picked up. You use the word ‘offensive’, but I’m not sure who you’re worrying about this...
I couldn’t really see the victim – only the baying mob so ‘gang rape’ wasn’t openly on display. As for it being “another attempt to drum up anti-Muslim feelings”, it was hardly stage managed. As unsavoury as it might be, that’s reality.
@Scorpio Joe: No, it wasn't posted to stir up 'anti Muslim feelings.' A liberal explanation if ever I heard one. It was merely a notification that I'd found what I was looking for
Thanks for your answer, btw (third [I think] answer on here), though it would have been more effective if you'd posted the word 'taharrush' in the text
I'm not saying it was stage managed, just that the video was unclear..could you see a woman? And the offensive voice-over may not have matched what was actually being said.
A deeply cynical person might say that the only reality that counts, Naomi, is the kind that shows policemen carrying dead children from the waves.
Any other kind is, at best, deemed none of our business and in any case, trouble making.
Funny old world.
Well I could certainly see a woman being dragged around !!..and you are very naive lynn if you believe you would not be stirring up anti muslim feeling by showing that content with that voice over !!
ah right...lol....this little girl clearly does not know me at all...but if she feels making such personal remarks somehow makes her superior ..then I am saddened...
Fact: There is an Arab rape 'game' called Taharrush this is something I didn't, and perhaps we all, ought to know. Whether it is appropriate on AB or not is another issue. If you want to learn more about it simply google the word.

You use the word ‘offensive’, but I’m not sure who you’re worrying about this video offending – ultra-sensitive ABers who prefer to shove reality under the carpet - or Muslims who know exactly what goes on and do nothing to stop it? For my part, if either group is offended, tough. It’s time the world faced the facts.
Muslims don't need me to stir up anti-Muslim feelings. They do a pretty good job themselves.
The German Secret Police kept the Yew Year's Eve sexual assaults quiet for 5 days, in order not to 'stir up anti-Muslim feelings.' Now we have the same type of censorship on here, helping to make sure that no one knows nothing
Naomi we absolutely know what goes on and you would have to be living in isolation with no media not to know..but I no more want to view it as I don't want to view old ladies being raped and murdered in their own homes...and we know that happens regularly !
