Europe’s Growing ‘Honour Killing’ Problem
The European Conservative ^ | 1 Dec, 2025 | Lauren Smith

Last May, two brothers allegedly bound their 18-year-old sister in packing tape, gagged her, and drowned her in a swamp. This was an honour killing, motivated by what the girl’s brothers saw as her ‘westernisation.’ During the trial last week, WhatsApp messages revealed that the family’s main grievances were the fact that she had refused an arranged marriage, had a boyfriend, and had stopped wearing a headscarf. “There is no other solution,” one of the brothers wrote in a message. The girl’s own mother said that she was “a disgrace to the family and deserves to die” and should be “wrapped in a shroud.” In a secretly recorded conversation, one brother said he believed the family had been humiliated by the girl’s behaviour, and the only way out was her death.

This happened not in Nigeria, Pakistan, or Iran, but in the Netherlands. Ryan Al Najjar was allegedly murdered by Mohamed Al Najjar, 23, and Muhanad Al Najjar, 25, in the Oostvaardersplassen nature reserve in Flevoland, 75 miles away from their home in Joure, Friesland. The killing is thought to have been ordered by their father, who fled back to his home country of Syria following his daughter’s death and has since remarried.

Police had been monitoring Ryan due to previous reports that she was in danger at home, but this protection ended shortly before her murder. In 2023, she had fled from the family’s house barefoot, telling neighbours that she thought her father might kill her. As a result, she had been given some police protection and was taken to a secret location, but she eventually had to return home.

The Dutch public prosecution office has formally described Ryan’s murder as an ‘honour killing.’ This barbaric practice is typically committed by a victim’s own family members when the victim

Honor killing in Eurabia? They imported this and then act surprised.

Muslims know zero about honor.

Younger Muslim immigrants are, in general, more radical than their parents. Many studies have shown that.

So expect this problem to get worse.

The primary controversy surrounding Western governments is whether they are merely stupid or actively evil.

What is not controversial is that the evil and/or stupid people running the government hate their native populations.

It is just part of the rich diversity that Islam’s rich culture brings everywhere it is practiced.

The globalists are merely amused. There will of course be some unpleaseantries during the process of denationalization and globalization. How silly the European masses were when they thought cultural suicide was painless.

Honor killing is to scare people into not leaving their Cult

Think of what would be an inordinately pessimistic prediction about the present from the 1960s.

Clockwork Orange territory.

Would it even include this problem?

I know a woman who had a similar experience. Christian, not muslim. Threatened with death (hers and her baby’s). She was told she could stay in a shelter for abuse victims, for one month. After that the waiting list for something more permanent was one year.
It’s not uncommon for an abuser to isolate a victim, from her family and friends. Eventually the victim has no one willing to help, except the government.
When time’s up, return to the abuser and accept additional “punishment” and monitoring.
The problem is not just in Europe.

It’s abhorrent uncivilized acts such as this - the depraved deliberate drowning to death by a young girls own brothers (for which Sharia lauds and celebrates); an act that positively proves Islamists are vile Satanic inspired disciples.

Yep. The only “European problem” is adapting to their new culture.

In the 1960’s an islamic invasion would seem implausible.
