why is sexual violence used as a weapon against muslims?

Answer 1

All the recent stories I've read indicate that should be "by muslims" instead of "against muslims".

Answer 2

The question itself is based on a false premise - namely, that mass rape of subject populations is a legitimate and recognized military tactic in this day and age, and its use is widespread by uniformed militaries.

Rape, whether done against Bosnian Muslim women by Balkan paramilitaries of all stripes, or Algerian women by both rebels and security services, by Pakistanis against Bangladeshi women in that misbegotten civil war, by the Janjaweed against Darfur refugees who also happen to be Muslim - is fact. Its use is not restricted by religion or any other demographic criterion. It is a terror weapon, nothing more, nothing less. The days in which it was used as a tool for converting subject populations - whether it was Mongolians rampaging through Asia and Eastern Europe, or Spanish Conquistadores brutalizing Central and South America - are far gone. Rape is not used as a weapon on that sort of massive scale anymore. Tragedies such as those in Sierra Leone and other places are no longer widespread as they were even in the last century. Witness Warsaw, Berlin, Nanjing.

If this was a question intended to elict some sort of sympathy and paint Muslims alone as an innocent and aggrieved religious group whose avowed membership engages in no atrocities of its own, you need a serious reality check. No religion absolves anyone of the potential for becoming a war criminal. There are Muslims guilty of "sexual violence" - and I have seen them firsthand. Learn to see the world for what it is rather than try to drag others into your falsehoods.

Answer 5

What exactly are you referring to?
There have been incidents, but to qualify this as the use of a "weapon", means that you think it is used structurally, so explain yourself and provide references.

Because the muslims are not easily bluffed by physical weapon attack, then their enemis turn to psychological attack.
