Evil men often times like to hide in the shadows, but sometimes they come out and admit their evil thoughts and deeds. Such is the case with this captured ISIS fighter, Amar Hussein, who bragged that he personally killed 500 people and raped 200 women. When asked why he raped so many women, he said that rape was 'good for young men':
A captured Islamic State terror group soldier, who claims to have raped over 200 women and killed as many as 500 people in total, tried to explain that the reason IS carries out mass rape of women and children is because "young men need this."
Amar Hussein, the militant who was captured in October during an assault on the city of Kirkuk in Iraq, spoke with Reuters about his experiences, revealing that IS commanders gave soldiers permission to rape as many Yazidi women and other minorities as they wanted.
"Young men need this," Hussein apparently said. "This is normal."
The jihadist explained that militants were able to rape so many women because they moved from house to house in the captured cities in Iraq, taking women and children as sex slaves, while killing the men.
"We shot whoever we needed to shoot and beheaded whoever we needed to behead," he added.
Hussein, who was first taken to be a jihadi fighter at 14 years of age, recalled that IS leaders trained soldiers to kill people, and although at first it was difficult for him to obey such orders, it got easier the more he did it.
"Seven, eight, 10 at a time, 30 or 40 people," he described. "We would take them in the desert and kill them."
While Hussein's claims of how many women he has raped and people in total he has killed are yet to be verified, several major international organizations have documented the mass enslavement and rape of women and children that goes on in captured IS territory.
Documents obtained by The Washington Post earlier in February revealed that IS keeps detailed records of its fighters, categorizing them by blood types and listing out how many "slave girls" each is allowed to own. (source)
Truth is stranger- and more disturbing- than fiction indeed.
