But women have been reporting in such situations for a long time and I don’t remember any such incidences.

If the perpetrators were men who believed that rape was a plausible punishment for perceived crimes or an acceptable way to behave in certain situations, I’d say it was culturally specific.

It seems to me they were sending a message to the Western World. “Don’t mess with us, or we will fuck you up.”

I’ve not heard reports of such behavior from other than Whacko Islamists.

It is Whacko behavior of a certain belief system. Not a representation of everyone of that belief system.

A certain belief system about how mobs of men behave. Nothing cultural or specific about it. Happens during parades in nyc, happens during war, happens anytime you have a group of out of control men and any victim.
