'''Marocchinate''' (Italian for "Moroccan deeds") is a term applied to the mass [[rapes]] and [[Murder|killings]] committed against Italian civilians mainly by the [[Moroccan]] Goumiers, colonial troops of the French Expeditionary Corps (FEC), during [[World War II]] after the [[Battle of Monte Cassino]] in Italy.

==History==
[[File:Denkmal Mamma Ciociara.jpg|right|260px]]
[[Monte Cassino]] was captured by the [[Allies of World War II|Allies]] on 18 May 1944. The next night, thousands of Goumiers and other colonial troops scoured the slopes of the hills surrounding the town and the villages of [[Ciociaria]] (in South [[Latium]]). Italian victims associations alleged that 60,000 women, ranging in age from 11 to 86, suffered from violence, when village after village came under control of the Goumiers. Civilian men who tried to protect their wives and daughters were murdered.

The number of men killed has been estimated at 800.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://legislature.camera.it/_dati/leg01/lavori/stenografici/sed0890/sed0890.pdf|title=Seduta Notturna Di Lunedì 7 Aprile 1952|trans_title=Sitting by Night: Monday, August 7, 1952|publisher=[[Chamber of Deputies (Italy)|Chamber of Deputies]]|language=it}}</ref> In fact, due to incomplete reports of the crimes, a precise account is impossible.<ref>{{cite web|author=Baris, Tommaso|url=http://www.cairn.info/resume.php?ID_REVUE=VING&ID_NUMPUBLIE=VIN_093&ID_ARTICLE=VING_093_0047|title=Le corps expéditionnaire français en Italie – Violences des " libérateurs " durant l’été 1944|trans_title= The French Expeditionary Corps in Italy – Violence of the "liberators" during the summer of 1944|language=fr}}</ref> An alleged statement by General [[Alphonse Juin]] before the battle said:

The mayor of [[Esperia]], a municipality in the province of [[Frosinone]], reported that in his town, 700 women out of 2,500 inhabitants were raped resulting in many deaths. According to Italian victims associations, a total of more than 7,000 civilians, including children, were raped by Goumiers.<ref>{{cite web|title=1952: Il caso delle "marocchinate" al Parlamento|url=http://www.cassino2000.com/cdsc/studi/archivio/n07/n07p09.html|accessdate=2008-11-22|language=it}}</ref>

: ''In May 1944, Allied forces bombed and shelled the sixth-century abbey of [[Monte Cassino]] to rubble, forcing the German defenders there to withdraw. Among the Allied troops was a division of Moroccan soldiers. Even then the Allies wanted to have “diversity” among their forces in order to show the world that they believed in racial equality. Well, the Moroccans weren’t much as fighters, but they were pretty good at cutting the throats of prisoners after the fighting was over. And they also excelled at raping civilians — and prisoners too, occasionally, buggery being an established tradition among them. The night after the Germans had withdrawn, the [[Moroccans]] — 12,000 of them — left their camp and swarmed over the mountain villages around Monte Cassino. They [[rape]]d every village woman and girl they could get their hands on, an estimated 3,000 women, ranging in age from 11 years to 86 years old. They murdered 800 village men who tried to protect their women. They abused some of the women so badly that more than 100 of them died. They selected the prettiest girls for gang-raping, with long lines of dark-skinned Moroccans waiting their turn in front of each one, while other Moroccans held the victims down. And they raped some of the young men as well.''<ref>Dr. [[William L.

==Mamma Ciociara==
[https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Mamma_Ciociara ''Mamma Ciociara''] is an Italian monument by the sculptor Fedele Andreani in memory of the victims of mass rape and other war and post-war crimes committed by [[Moroccans]] during and after the [[Second World War]]. It was inaugurated on 3 June 1964 on the cliff on the northern top of the old Italian town of Castro dei Volsci.
