    Emir Massar Aseel, an Arab tribal leader in El Geneina, dismissed the rape allegations as “empty lies.” Aseel is a leader of the Rizeigat – one of the largest Arab tribes in West Darfur and the group from which many RSF leaders hail. Arab tribal traditions prohibit sexual assault and bar Arabs from marrying Masalit, Aseel said in a phone interview, and thus his people couldn’t have committed mass rape.

    “If I can’t bring myself to marry” a Masalit woman, Aseel said, “why would I go and take her by force?”

    If not for the horrific context, the sheer idiocy of the above comment would be truly hilarious.

        I have to ask. Besides being an edgy comment that borders on (if not flatout) maligning Muslims- what are you trying to accomplish with it? Or am I putting too much weight on a throwaway troll commeny?

          He should not single out Muslims since all religions are just pedophile protection organizations long other crime.

          Pedos love sky daddy which provides them access to victims

            I won’t apologize for bringing attention to bigotry that you’re all to happy to spread but too afraid to say clearly. Dog whistles are fun!

            Do you usually get this upset when someone brings attention to your dog whistles?

        You do realize many of the women raped were probably Muslim too? Its not religion that brought that rather then racism… people keep failing to understand this. Or rather it makes you feel justified in your own hatred rather then reading the actual fucking article.
