HEY LADIES! Who wants a new milkshake machine? Sign up with ISIS and get one free!

[eissa]

In exchange for your new appliances, you get to be raped/married off to your very own terrorist, raise his children, and help enslave your sisters. Who could pass up such a sweet deal?!

ISIS has emerged as the perfect solution to the so-called "marriage crisis." In addition to being promised a salary, male foreign fighters considering joining the Islamic State are also promised a wife -- and perhaps more than one. This goes a long way towards explaining why so many men from the region are flocking to ISIS. While Belgium has a disproportionate number of foreign fighters and the media focuses on those leaving from North America and Europe, the vast majority of foreign fighters are more local and from the region.

ISIS is an attractive option for men who are unemployed or underemployed and are highly motivated to find a spouse. The group will also rank the women, considering the foreign women and converts to be especially valuable. And it will reward these women to the most prized recruits. On top of this, ISIS has hundreds of Yazidi and Shia sex slaves.

They promise the girls a wonderful life and say all of their needs will be taken care of. They are promised a wonderful husband and a free house with top-of-the-line appliances, such as a fridge, microwave and even a milkshake machine. Most importantly, they are told that their husband will care for them and that if he dies, she will instantly be transformed into a hero -- the wife of a martyr.

8. Remember the 'Branch Davidians'?

They thought he was Jesus come again. Cults. It always comes back to cults and shit.

9. Good point. Same deal. Whackadoodle.

11. Same deal except

The Branch Davidians weren't chopping off peoples' heads and burning them alive in cages.

On the cult comments, I totally agree. Posted an OP about it a while back.

10. I hate these women more than the terrorists themselves

The men can get paid for supporting a cause they believe in, plus as many wives and concubines as they can get their filthy hands on. For men living a jobless and sexually-deprived life, this probably sounds like a good deal.

But the women? What on earth would posses them to willingly submit themselves to the mercy of rapists? I just have no words for those who would give up life in the west -- a place so many women living in deplorable, oppressive conditions would give anything to reside in -- to go and support the enslavement of their sisters. Well.....actually, I do have words, but there are some professional pearl-clutchers on this site, so I'll refrain.

7. Combine the offer of earthly goodies with their apocalyptic dogma it's irresistible to some

unfortunately irresistible to too many.



Brings to mind CNNs "Nutella and kittens" comment as ISIS lures for young women. I never saw that comment as literally "Nutella and kittens" but more as an analogy for what's being offered as "perks" in joining their cause.

Because clearly they're offering more than simply the opportunity to enslave and kill people.
While the psychopathy may be enough for some, for many others the chance for lots of sex and a great house may be the tipping point

12. To be fair, everyone knows that milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard.
