Can’t Happen Here? Think Again

It’s more than domestic violence. And it’s not being reported. Mark Steyn hit the mark when he wrote:

“Just asking, but are beheadings common in western New York? I used to spend a lot of time in that neck of the woods and I don’t remember decapitation as a routine form of murder. Yet the killing of Aasiya Hassan seems to have elicited a very muted response…

But, when Muzzammil Hassan kills his wife and “the face of Muslim news” is unveiled rather more literally, detached from her corpse at his TV studios, it’s all he can do to make the local press — page 26 of Newsday, plus The Buffalo News, and a very oddly angled piece in the usually gung-ho New York Post, “Buffalo Beheading: Money Woe Spurred Slay“.

Muzzammil Hassan is the founder and chief executive officer of Bridges TV, which he launched in 2004, amid hopes that it would help portray Muslims in a more positive light.

Apparently, Mr. Hassan has failed miserably in this effort. I live in WNY and, other than at the time of the incident, there has been little mention of this killing. The politically correct Buffalo News wouldn't think of offending the poor, put-upon Muslims in this community.

America wants to open its arms and glorify Islamic paganism and brutality, so beheading and honor killings are something we have to adjust to. Besides, Muslims hate Christians, Jews, America and Israel, so liberals are willing to tolerate their diversity.

I guess he did if meant more realistic.
