Sexual Frustration Driving Western-Raised South Asian Kids to ISIS
The Daily Beast ^ | 06/15/2015 | Nico Hines

South Asian kids raised in the West are interested in sex and sports like everyone else. But immigrant parents who never adjusted are driving those kids into the arms of killers.

LONDON -- 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.

Herself a child of immigrants from Pakistan and Afghanistan, her film explores a host of other factors that contribute to the radicalization of young men and women. But parents who struggled and failed to adapt to the Western world in which they were raising their children showed up time and again.

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

I think a strong argument can be made that of all the moslems in the world, the ones most closely following the example of Muhammed are ISIS followers.

Sayyid Qutb, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood said his Islamist outlook was caused by his time in the U.S. where he was offended by um...women in bikinis.

The truth is he was rejected by Western women and found that astonishing and offensive. In Islam, he was used to the concept that a woman would be issued to him as his slave, or even more then one.

The concept that the woman was free to pick and choose on her own was frightening to him, and devastating when he found out that meant the caucasian females were not going to be available to him...at all.

There was a study done a long time ago on the types of Muslim (particularly Arab) young men who became terrorists. Either #1) they had an abusive father — often one who was living with a second wife — or #2) they were ne’er-do-well types sent abroad by their parents to study but instead drifted & ended up hanging around radical types.

#1 is interesting, because of probably a competition between father & son. Already the latter is being brought up to devalue women.

So this explains all the rapes committed by ISIS? It’s just a bunch of horny young men releasing pent up sexual frustration.

Cultural diversity is crap and a big lie sold to the American public. This country was not, I repeat NOT, built on cultural diversity, it was built by people who came here and believed in what we stood for and wanted to be a part of it. You assimilate into the culture you immigrate to or you do not immigrate. The morons in charge cannot see that, especially in Mexican invaders.

No.

Moe Ham Head founded a religion in which forcing infidels into sexual slavery was not only permissible, it was a virtue. Simple adultry earns stoning, enslaving infidels is pleasing to Allah.

Call it the religion of getting a piece.

#2 sounds like the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Parts for most anything are pricey. I’m running into more cases of backorder too.

Just another attempt by the left to blame the west and excuse Islamic terror. We’ve all heard it before. It’s not their fault, it’s we who have failed them, etc. They can’t come right out and admit that they support ISIS, but like the good little collaborators they are, they’re doing their best to try and redirect people’s anger towards our culture, and away from the enemy. It’s kind of like covering fire, but with propaganda instead of bullets.

Why did the West let Muslims into their countries when it is impossible for them to assimilate? It’s like introducing a snake into a cage full of mice.

A Pakistani Muslim I once knew told me that. We can defeat any Muslim army simply by airdropping live pigs and Playboy magazines on them.

Islam is the problem. The Islamic idea of heaven is right out of the Playboy mansion. If you spent every day thinking about it, it may drive you to do things you wouldn’t have dreamed. The 9/11 hijackers suitcases had wedding outfits in them
