You're not alone, and I hope you're not tempted to think this has revealed something unforgivable/unacceptable in you. Seems to be the expansion of the personal into the collective psyche.
There's an interesting book called Dark Night, Early Dawn where at one point the author talks about a very similar incident, where he went from protecting his daughter from an onslaught of rapists to becoming one of them. It shook him to the core. This is just one incident from his methodical, decades-long exploration of transpersonal psychology with the aid of high-dose LSD. Stan Grof is a mentor of the author's, and wrote the forward to the book.
Just thought I'd mention it in case it's helpful to hear that some have fleshed out frameworks of the psyche in which these experiences can be accepted as part of a larger process. Helps to know it doesn't say something about you personally.
