Austrian Man Shoots Colleague, Slices off Penis in 'Honor Killing'
VIENNA, Austria Austrian authorities said Thursday they arrested an elderly Turkish-born man suspected of fatally shooting a younger Turkish associate and slicing off the victim's penis in what investigators called an "honor killing."
...
Officials said witnesses claimed the man allegedly shot the victim, a 58-year-old Turkish-born man, in the street with a shotgun at point-blank range and then cut off his penis with a knife, leaving him to bleed to death.
Two teams of surgeons worked at the scene to save the man but were unable to revive him, authorities said.
Investigators believe the suspect apparently was jealous that the younger man had flirted with his wife, and had sought him out as "a question of honor," said Franz Polzer, head of the region's criminal investigations office.
Honor killings, driven by the view that a family's honor is paramount, are an ancient tradition associated with Kurdish regions of Turkey, Iraq and Iran as well as tribal areas in Pakistan and some Arab societies.

I can just hear the witnesses: "That's right, officer. I saw the old man walk right up and allegedly shoot that man lying right there!"
YUP!
Meanwhile they’ll tell you their a civilized religion and only want “peace”. Yeah, a peace of WHAT?
This is totally disgusting and inhumane.
“The media will do anything but tell the truth- “honor killings” is an Islamic ‘family tradition’. Kurds are Islamic, they follow the Pedophile Mohammad and his talking rock.”
YUP!
Meanwhile they’ll tell you they are a civilized religion and only want “peace”. Yeah, a peace of WHAT?
This is totally disgusting and inhumane.
You owe the 15th Century an apology. Actually, there’s nothing about any century that’s inherently objectionable. I prefer just to say they are benighted savages who should not be allowed to enter any country that wishes to be civilized.
“Vienna sausage?”
No....Turkish !!!!
There.
Fixed it for them.
DANG!
I hate contrived, absurd headlines!
“Austrian Man Shoots Colleague, Slices off Penis in ‘Honor Killing’ “
I suspect this is what some Democrats (like Kerry) would call a
“copy-cat” event.
Because it sounds like the sort of atrocity that they claim American
military personnel do in Iraq, Vietnam etc.
Shouldn’t that be “BONER” Killing???
Usually what they do to complete the act is shove the cut off penis in the victims mouth. I don't know if he did in this case, and the media just didn't mention it.
In anycase, that is why they cut of the penis. It's a final insult, used for a variety of crimes against Islam, such as being an apostate, speaking against Mohammad, and I guess sleeping with a muzzie friends wife.
Amazing! Usually, it’s the woman they kill...
Some tradition. We used to have a tradition here where if you shot someone, cut off his penis and left him to bleed to death for talking with your wife, we, as a society, would kill you. We need to get back to our tradition.
Look at it this way. If you're into "honor killing" in the first place, nothing says "pwned" like cutting off your enemy's penis.
People & ANIMALS! remind me of PETA!
Penis
Envying

It's not a "religion" in the accepted sense of the term; it's a geopolitical death cult, and as such should not be entitled to the Constitutional protections accorded to religions.
“pwned”! You play World of Warcraft?
Bobbit tosses her man's manliness out of her car window just as she approaches the on-coming car with the two old ladies inside.
The manliness hits the two old ladies' widshiled and sticks there for one brief second before bouncing off. The old lady driving gasps in horror and screams to her passenger; "Oh my God Mabel! Did you sse the size of the d*** on that f***ing bug!?!"
...gee...I hope I don't get banned for that one
I suppose, then, that you're not buying this...
But you do buy this...
One of the worlds most respected Deobandi scholars believes that aggressive military jihad should be waged by Muslims to establish the supremacy of Islam worldwide.
Justice Muhammad Taqi Usmani argues that Muslims should live peacefully in countries such as Britain, where they have the freedom to practise Islam, only until they gain enough power to engage in battle.
His views explode the myth that the creed of offensive, expansionist jihad represents a distortion of traditional Islamic thinking.
Mr Usmani, 64, sat for 20 years as a Sharia judge in Pakistans Supreme Court. He is an adviser to several global financial institutions and a regular visitor to Britain
Mr Usmanis justification for aggressive military jihad as a means of establishing global Islamic supremacy is revealed at the climax of his book, Islam and Modernism. ---Times Online, Sept 8, 2007
Rotten.com has some odd and disgusting photos - some of which are about this very subject. Algerian, I believe.
They sure did fudge that headline. I didn’t know that “Austrians” were into honor killings.
