You're right. It's more a cultural problem rather than a religious one. Honor killings happen among Christians in the middle east as well.

The Habash girl was Christian, the Shakirat girl was muslime. Helps to read the whole article. The whole concept of "honor killings" is a sham meant to hide the failure of the males (I refuse to call them "men," since they have no manhood) to behave in an appropriate manner. A muslime or Arab male screws up, he kills a woman. He wants to rape his sister, sure, why not? Just kill her for having sex outside of marriage! Wife complains about being beaten? Kill her for being "unfaithful."

The whole Arab "culture" is sick, retrograde and barbaric. And folks......

That culture is what the left in this country is adhering to.


Happy dhimmitude to those of you who vote Democrat.....

The true lesson of this story is not obvious and is in many ways more disturbing than the main points.

First, its common and an accepted practice in Islamic society to break your word. There's almost no stigma attached to it. Hence no agreement is worth anything. THey simply do not mean anything they say.

Second, Islamic societies are essentially caste systems where those at the top feel free to physically abuse anyone below them for any reason that pops in their heads. In short they are cowards. And like the bullies that they are there hasn't been a single example, in hundreds of years, of a Islamic army winning against any non-Islamic force. The reason is simple honor, respect, and the acknowledgement of responsibility to protect the rights of those less powerful are pre-requisite qualities for successful military forces.

This stuff is so deeply embedded in these people that it would take another 50 or 100 years just to eradicate this practice of honor killings.

Gosh, I sure like this religion of peace! Why ANY woman in her right mind (in America especially) would choose to be Muslim boggles the mind. This is so sad.

Wonder what she did to deserve that? Probably raped by her father. It's a sick culture that needs to be quarantined from the rest of the world.

All Muslims and Arabs must be repatriated back to the countries from which they came and further travel to non Muslim countries prohibited. All aid to these countries must be halted. They must be sealed off from the rest of the world, permanently.

"Since they have broken their word, we have the right to retaliate. There will be a reaction for betraying their religion and betraying us."

IMHO, the most important line in the whole article. It's one big family feud over there - Muslim and Christian alike.

Yup, sure did. Doesn't appear you did likewise, however.

From the article:

Catholics here are Christian by faith and Muslim by culture

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

But those calls have met with resistance in parliament where religious Palestinian MPs argue that reform will lead to a collapse in the moral fabric of society.


&&
What moral fabric? These blood-thirsty barbarians have no such thing.

Look what they do in India! The bride is supposed to kill herself if her husband dies, at least in the olden days that was true and I bet it still is. Also, mothers-in-law can kill their husbands wives if they don't like them. Burn them alive, actually. Nice pagan stuff.

Nope. Suttee was outlawed during the Raj, and remains outlawed. It still happens, just like polygamy still happens in Utah. And it is just as illegal.
