It's easy to be repulsed by such dramatically overt sadistic evil. But keep in mind that in 1400 years of "mainstream" Islamic jurisprudence, there is no basis whatsoever for "intrinsic" or "inherent" human dignity, even in theory.

Islam has taught from the beginning, and still teaches, that only Mulims have rights, and that non-Muslims, if they are allowed to exist at all, exist as a kind of exploitable resource for the Umma, the Muslim community.

They simply lack the Judeo-Christian concept of every person being "endowed by their Creator" with certain inalienable rights.

However badly Jews and Christians have lived up to this --- and there have always been egregious violations --- the key is, that's just what they were: violations. It was Jews and Christians failing to live up to their own Divine teachings.

Whereas a Muslim man forcing sexual relations upon captured women and girls, is living up to (down to) the ineradicable example of Muhammad, "the perfect man".

Readings Chesterton’s “The New Jerusalem” at the moment. He’s pretty straightforward (nearly 100 years ago) that Moslems (how he expressly chooses to spell it) have a very simple view of the world: they “know” that men are masters, women are property, and “infidels” have no rights. This is what we fight: they are taught all this from infancy and it is ground truth for them.

A few years ago I was trying to explain what you said in your post to my one remaining liberal close friend. She had taken a politically correct course about islam and was outraged about all the "islamaphobia" in the West. She thinks she is a Christian. I explained to her that it is not "hatred" to discuss their vile behavior, because in the sense that they are bound to islam on pain of death and are taught to rape and to lie as part of their religion, they are in that sense "innocent", and deserve our pity and our prayers for their release from captivity (up until the moment they try to rape or kill oneself). But denying that their behaviors are based in their true beliefs is suicide.
