It's sarcastic; The Religion Of Peace !
Interesting story tho' not really new, usually it's the woman's brothers that become the executioners. Sheer barbarism.
I recall reading about such a killing some years ago here in the US, the perp was under wiretap by the FBI for some reason and so by accident almost they recorded his screaming "Die die.." etc as he stabbed his own daughter to death.
Hard to understand that concept of parenting IMHO.

More accurately, it's The Religion Of PiecesTM

I'll add that "honor killing" is more a factor of culture than religion. Arabs have a tribal nihilistic culture. Other cultures kill to protect or restore family honor, but many of those are more of the romantic and chivalric type, in that it is the outsider who is held accountable. IOW, if your daughter's chastity is brought into question, it is the one who may have besmirched her honor rather than she, who is to blame.
