In their dealings with the African people of Darfur, what is MOST likely the reason that the Janjaweed user r a p e as a weapon? It is an effort to create a population of African and Arab children. It is an effort to terrorize and destroy the African family units. The Janjaweed do not have access to weapons like guns or knives. It is used as a reward for soldiers, much like with the Roma in German camps.
