“There’s a reason why he could have misunderstood.”
In the past, I documented the frequency of the “cultural differences” defense for Muslim rapists in Western nations.
Esmatullah Sharifi, an Afghan refugee, offered an Australian woman a ride home and then put his right hand around her neck and his left hand over her mouth and raped her. Sharifi’s lawyers claimed that due to cultural differences he was confused about the nature of consent.
This wasn’t Sharifi’s first misunderstanding of the difference between rape and sex. He had already been sentenced to 7 years in jail for raping an Australian teenager on Christmas Day in 2008.
Last year, an Egyptian Muslim cleric was arrested for groping women on a beach. The spokesman for the Dee Why Mosque said that by groping a grandmother pushing a stroller and an underage girl, Ahmed Alkahly had been “showing love and compassion but had misunderstood the cultural differences between Australia and Egypt.”
Almahde Ahmad Atagore made his own effort at showing love and compassion by sexually assaulting seven women and girls. The youngest of his victims was only 13 years old. Afterward he laughed.
Atagore’s lawyers blamed cultural differences and Judge Margaret Rizkalla agreed, telling the Libyan Muslim rapist, “It seems you were very ill prepared to deal with cultural differences.”
In the Ashfield rapes, four Pakistani brothers raped eighteen women and girls. Their father urged that his sons be pardoned because they “did not know the culture of this culture.”
One of the brothers appealed his sentence arguing that he had committed the rapes based on cultural differences with how Pakistani girls behaved. The older brother said in court that only now that he had gained a “better understanding of Australian culture” did he finally realize that rape was wrong.
The father of the rapist brothers said of the victims, “What do they expect to happen to them? Girls from Pakistan don’t go out at night.”
This defense popped up in the UK’s Muslim sex grooming gang scandal.
The report chronicles how Operation Augusta was launched and then scuttled after her death in 2003, despite identifying 97 suspects and 57 victims. The victims were, “mostly white girls aged between 12 and 16”, and the perpetrators were, “mostly men of ‘Asian heritage’”. By ‘Asian’, the report means “predominantly Pakistani men” though at least one of the perpetrators was apparently Tunisian.
Constable B, the anonymous cop responsible for some of the most revealing quotes in the report, said, “What had a massive input was the offending target group were predominantly Asian males and we were told to try and get other ethnicities.”
“There was an educational issue. Asian males didn’t understand that it was wrong, and the girls were not quite there. They were difficult groups to deal with. We can’t enforce our way out of the problem,” Constable B said.
That reminds me of the defeatist “we can’t kill our way out” of dealing with Islamic terrorism motto.
And as a result the UK is full of rapists and sex offenders with cultural differences.
A man who raped a 15-year-old girl after following her on a street in Stirlingshire has been jailed for nine years.
Sadeq Nikzad, 29, targeted the girl in Falkirk town centre in October 2023.
Nikzad, an asylum seeker from Afghanistan, repeatedly requested her telephone number, uttered sexual remarks then led her into a courtyard where he raped her.
The court heard that Nikzad had entered the UK illegally two years before the attack.
Defence counsel Janice Green told the court there were language difficulties and a “cultural barrier” between Nikzad’s home country where child marriage was common.
She said: “I’m not suggesting that means that he reasonably believed (the complainer) was consenting, but that there’s a reason why he could have misunderstood.”
The reason is that this sort of thing is fine in Afghanistan. It’s fine under Islamic law (as long as the victims are non-Muslim women and girls) which means that it’s fine to any devout Muslim.
The question then is whether the UK and the rest of the free world will choose between welcoming in cultures where sexual assault is understandable or protecting its own women and girls.
Refugees welcome really means rapists welcome.
somehistory says
Totally disgusting….demonic behavior.
Common sense says that it’s wrong, and they know it’s wrong when they do it. That’s why they hide afterward, and why they deny having done it. And when those two don’t work to keep them free to do it again, they claim they didn’t understand due to “cultural differences,” and “misunderstanding.”
If they can’t act like normal humans, they don’t belong walking free where humans walk.
whack them and be done with it. And if some whiner can’t stand the whacking, send them back where they do understand their “culture” of evil.

ISABELLA HALE says
Those stories are flabbergasting to me. My daughter in law is of Pakistani descent.. and her mother is American. She is American and went to GMU and is an accountant. To me she looks American but apparently her skin tone is white and hair black and “Pakistani men” can tell she has some “middle eastern” in her. I can’t see it. My son has blonde hair and blue eyes. BOTH of them have mentioned to me that when she is out in public that Men of CLEAR MUSLIM not American men actually try to approach her and speak to her and SHUT UP QUICK when they realize she is married to my son, American. The are both University graduates and OBVIOUSLY AMERICAN is dress and speech. THESE NOT UNDERSTANDING CULTURE Is ABSURD. RAPE as I HAVE SAID BEFORE IS AN ACT OF VIOLENCE AND FORCED SUBMISSION. THIS SO CALLED CULTURAL “MISUNDERSTANDING” IS UNACCEPTABLE AND THE PAKISTANI MEN WHO RAPE WOMEN AND GIRLS KNOW THIS. THROW THE BOOK AT THEM
Westman says
It seems that Islam creates males who only avoid sexual violence against women who are in approved Islamic clothing cages, minded by Muslims, and invisible at night. Of course they know assaulting any woman is against western laws. They just think we’re dumb enough to believe them and, unfortunately, too many are stupidly ignorant, even judges, about Islam.
Yes, throw the book at them.
Rufolino says
Correct Isabella. These claims of “cultural difference” in Western countries are laughable. They are not “a defence”, they are an excuse.

Peacelover says
I tell ya’,this whole ‘Asian’ thing,referring to them as Asian bothers me,whether I am in the right or wrong.I always thought of the Oriental/Far East as Asian. Guess I am in the wrong. I mean,why don’t they say ‘middle easterner’ instead? about Afghan and Pakistanis?
Anyone care to clarify this for me? Am I in the wrong?
somehistory says
They may be Asian, but the reason they say that is for two claims they make: one, they can then say “racist” if people complain and it obscures the fact that they are mozscums
After all, there are some few non-mozscums in pakistan and afghanistan, etc. (we know because they get persecuted, accused of blasphemy and murdered.)
they want to smear everyone who comes from Asia….any part of it…so as not to focus on islime.
I have always thought that Asian meant people in China, Korea, Japan, etc. from my school days.
It would suit me if they were all just called scummy dross when it’s mozscums. Leave the other identifiers. alone.
Peacelover says
‘I have always thought that Asian meant people in China, Korea, Japan, etc. from my school days.’ , I have always thought the same. Thanks for the input.

Les says
The word “Asian” in this context is a British thing, referring to Indian, Pakistani & Bangladeshi.
Peacelover says
Do you know Les,how do the Brits refer to those in the Far East,China,Japan,etc.?
Les says
“East Asian” or Oriental
Goldmann. says
No you’re right. They say Asian to hide 😡and Asians are sick of it ! .pluse skiks as well getting blamed 😡🤦
Peacelover says
I don’t blame ;’em for being sick of it.
Wellington says
A sicko, but definitely following in the footsteps of Islam’s reputed founder, whose character has sickness (and rank opportunism) written all over it.
The chief problem remains, to wit, mankind got a major religion which is sick to its core. That religion is Islam and until all the games being played which deny this reality(e.g., Bush 43 saying that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance—and to think I voted for this doofus twice), no longer exist, then mankind will continue to suffer unnecessarily .
When evil is not properly characterized as evil, anything is possible. Mankind, and especially the West, is witnessing these “possibilities” in our time again and again and again because Islam still gets a pass.
It shouldn’t.
Peacelover says
‘Bush 43 saying that Islam is a religion of peace’…yeah,I remember hearing/seeing him say that and I really couldn’t believe that he said that,particularly after what had just happened.
DavidW says
In their culture it is okay to rape women. In our culture, it’s okay to castrate the rapists with a rusty machete – or is that too harsh??
Alex Lund says
We should start with a good thrashing (spanking), then the Cat of nine tales (whipping) and then a good oldfashioned keelhauling.
Lets have some fun while doing it.
Tim gallagher says
The cultural differences between evil, barbaric and totally degenerate Islam and it’s knuckle dragging followers and civilised non Muslims is exactly why Muslims need to be shut out of all non Muslim countries. Barbaric Muslim scum do not belong in any cultured society. Muslims have nothing approaching a culture, only barbaric filth.
Wellington says
For almost all of Western history since Islam’s inception in the 7th century AD, tg, the West followed what you stated that was so important, i.e., treating Islam as inimical to the West’s own interests. Well, not any longer over the past half century as the West has been led by gooey and stupid people like Macron, Trudeau, Pope Francis, Biden (or what was left of him) and Merkel.
Damn shame. What an ongoing tragedy these doofuses spawned.
Peacelover says
Bush and is ‘Islam is a religion of peace’ statement way back didn’t help and Merkel,what a disaster she spawned indeed.
Peacelover says
Bush and his ‘Islam is a religion of peace’ statement way back didn’t help and Merkel,what a disaster she spawned indeed.
Tim gallagher says
That’s true, Wellington, people used to see that islam is an evil load of primitive filth. I remember reading something by John Quincy adams where he contrasted Christianity with Islam’s filth and nailed Islam. Churchill saw Islam clearly as well. Some of those wishy washy dead shits you mention are either complete idiots or are too gutless to call out Islam as the evil filth that it is.
abu taleb says
So, rape is Islamic culture. I totally agree with that.
The next thing to do is to ban Islam because it sanctions rape and kick all muslims from the country unless you want Islam scumbags raping your girls.
OLD GUY says
Rape and violence against non-islamic followers is taught in the MOSQUE’S around the world to their little boy’s. That being said allowing young men from muslim countries into your country is a danger to your female population. These young men don’t change their belief’s when they cross our borders.

Muslim Rapist of 15-Year-Old Girl Blames ‘Cultural Differences’
She said: “I’m not suggesting that means that he reasonably believed (the complainer) was consenting, but that there’s a reason why he could have misunderstood.”
…………………………………..
It’s that this fine Mohammedan did not believr that consent was ncessary.
But telling Muslims that rape is not OK here would be consudered “Islamophobic”>
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Back in 2017, one of my posts was censored by then Twitter for using the term “rapefugee” (which had been coined by other people) to describe these refugee rapists in Europe. It’s high time that that word makes its way into regular use and be unapologetically used w/ the adjectives “muslim” or “islamic” to make it clear to regimes all over the West that we are done whitewashing mohammedans and their crimes
tgusa says
“He had already been sentenced to 7 years in jail for raping an Australian teenager on Christmas Day in 2008.”
And the Western left protests, rapefugees welcome. What in the ever lovin hell?
tgusa says
If a Western Infidel puts his right hand around his neck and his left hand over his mouth and offs him they can blame it on cultural differences.
wasnotme says
People do not understand the extent to which women are objects like a shoe under Islam. They are also treated as such. To show leniency towards persons of this ilk because they know no better would be to allow them to continue to view women in he same way as they have been taught and furthering the rule of Islam! Under Islam women are possessions of me literally! yet everywhere governments and officials SUPPORT Islam! They even fund it and allow countless Islamic organisations and Islamic charity to exist. They allow their mosques etc and so they will find that they are treated to the Islamic preference for treating women as objects of possession with very limited rights able to rape them on sight if not covered correctly! This is a direct consequence of supporting Islam!
basi says
It is sad that a government administration can’t enact legislation to end the privileges for a dog like this refugee, and ensure he sees tough prison time being kicked out to this country of origin. Shows how [politicians do not see the need to protect their own citizens, for fear of being challenged by nasty organisations like the UN . The fact that this animal was allowed to continue to live in Australia after the sentencing in 2008, is stark evidence of an impotent government.Shame on everyone concerned.
Time hard working Australian s stoo up and ended this.
rick says
Very simple response. If Afghan males cannot understand the difference between Muslim culture and Western culture in terms of the right to rape women – which I understand as it’s ok to rape a woman who acts in a friendly manner to a male, then it is impossible to allow male Muslims into Western nations. So an immediate immigration deportation act should begin to remove all Afghan and Pakistani males from Australia and other Western nations. And their removal is predicated on pedophile rapes as well so children are endangered by this “cultural” difference. When Pakistan and Afghanistan and other Muslim nations join the civilized world then it could be a possibility of allowing males from these Muslim countries to visit Western nations.
jerry glenn says
UK is hopeless. Australia should know better.
Troybeam says
2 items, educate everybody about the true Islam, murder, rape, violent attacks etc. 2nd, forget their ideal of cultural differences because they know and still will rape women.
Nabil Bissada says
“Muslim Rapist of 15-Year-Old Girl Blames ‘Cultural Differences’”
Cultural Differences means in his Muslim country he can rape any Muslim woman; this is a lie.
According to his Cultural Differences as a Muslim man if he rapes a Muslim woman must sentence to death penalty: stoned or by sward or hanging by the noose.
It’s not a Cultural Differences, it’s Islam religion who is according to the Koran and the sharia law allowed to the Muslim to rape, kidnap, lies, theft, murder, any non-Muslim
Muslims who are living in a Muslim country who are practicing the Koran and the sharia law how become be grant as a refugee and still keeping his Islamic believe?
I understand the Christians who are living under threat and discrimination in a Muslim country who are practicing the Koran and the sharia law who are asking to fight and be heading any non-Muslim are a refugee.
Muslims are not a refugee they are the soldiers of Allah.

Islam claims to be an advance on Christianity – but a living relationship with Christ provides both the desire and the power to stop sinning, whereas Islam merely moves the goalposts on what constitutes acceptable behaviour.
