[history]
ABU QASH, West Bank - Rofayda Qaoud - raped by her brothers and impregnated - refused to commit suicide, her mother recalls, even after she bought the unwed teenager a razor with which to slit her wrists. So Amira Abu Hanhan Qaoud says she did what she believes any good Palestinian parent would: restored her family's "honor" through murder.

Poverty and war have exacerbated the problem, says Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, a social work and criminology professor at Hebrew University in Jerusalem and an expert on violence against women.Somehow, I knew that I kept reading, it would be blamed on the Jews...

Now, what were the apologists telling us about the so-called palis *not* being a death cult?

On Jan. 27, Rofayda sent word that she was in danger to crisis counselors at Abu-Dayyeh's center in East Jerusalem. They, in turn, called Palestinian police in Ramallah, who have jurisdiction over Abu Qash. The police said they couldn't get to the Qaoud home because of Israeli checkpoints. Of course. The Jews are completely to blame.
Amazing that the one innocent person in the whole household is the one who is dead, and no one cares. I guess it is no wonder that they try to blow up their neighbors too, if killing one of their own is so commonplace.

*not* being a death cult? Not all Arabs are mohammedans. Many are Christians, though the followers of Mad Mo have been doing their level best to exterminate them.

As the Multi-Culturalists will tell us, "we have much to learn from other cultures".
They have a point, I would never have known of options in life like raping my sister, or killing her for having been raped.
I think we have all learned something today.

The liberal paradox - uphold non-western religions to spite Christianity, or uphold womens' lib and denounce these religions.

So, does this mean when a jihadi dies and gets his virgins, their mother kills them if they get pregnant? Is this a great religion or what?

The mohammedans seem to be in love with death. Of all the enemies these United States have faced over the last 225 years, they are unique. Even the Nazis, Imperial Japanese, and Viet Cong didn't murder their own like this.
To: ArrogantBustard
Honestly, I think this is more of an
Arab cultural thing than a Muslim thing.
I once knew a nominally Muslim guy who was dating a fellow Arab-American who happened to be Christian. The girl's "Christian" father killed her, rather than let her bring shame on to his family.

I especially liked the added touch of how the police didn't get there in time because of Israeli checkpoints. The irony is that the father said the Quran forbid this killing. This mother let culture rule over religion. My question is, why didn't the father get this girl to safety?

Their DNA should be studied. Some important chromosomes must be missing.

This story comes right from the water hole scene at the opening of "2001-A Space Odyssey". These people are not EVEN barbarians.
I always noticed the lower primate behaviour when they demonstrate, pound on their chests, and flay themselves, but never made the connection before this story.

Interesting data point.
To: NYC GOP Chick
she gave birth to a healthy boy on Dec. 23. He has since been adopted by another Palestinian family, court records show. For the sake of the boy I hope his genes mutated into something better than what he came from.

I could try to understand if the girl fooled around willingly and the culture is incredibly strict about promiscuity. But killing your own child because she was raped? I can't see any fair moral rule that would apply. Obviously the woman is blamed for the incident even if she's a rape victim.

Ah yes, Islam - "religion" of Peace and Submission....
I guess the young girls and women didn't understand the "meaning" of the word Submission.....
Islam continues to prove it is a murderous cult, with a following that in large measure is reinforceing their image to the world as a 7th century murderous cult...
If those "moderates" within this "religion" don't undergo serious reform and rehabilatation of the "sick" within their family --- there is a good chance of extinction ----THEIRS.
All cultures are NOT equal..
All religions are NOT worthy of respect...or TOLERANCE!
