Bridges TV, a Wife's Beheading, and Honor Murder (Long but excellent read)

I have followed Bridges TV in a weblog entry, ("Were Investors in 'Bridges TV' Misled?") since it opened shop in 2004, critical of its faked demographic figures and its Islamist outlook. One hasn't heard much about Bridges TV for a while, however, presumably because its once-shimmering prospects declined under the weight of the realities of North American demographics.

But it is about to reappear in the news with a vengeance, and for the most ironic possible reason. The station that Muzzammil Hassan, 44, founded with the achingly benevolent idea, in the words of a November 2004 biography, to help "non-Muslims overcome the negative images they may have of both Muslims and Islam" has now abundantly enhanced negative images of Muslims and Islam.

Today comes news from Orchard Park, near Buffalo, New York, of Hassan's arrest on a second-degree murder charge for having beheaded his wife, Aasiya Z. Hassan, 37. (In New York State, first-degree charge is reserved for special circumstances, such the death of a police officer or torture.) Aasiya Z. Hassan, 37. Aasiya (known professionally as Aasiya Zubair) had recently filed for divorce and won an order of protection forcing him out of their shared house; it appears that Hassan attempted to create a murder scene for police that would allay suspicion of himself, but failed in this.

[snip]According a Fox News report, Islamist pressure is being brought to bear on the authorities not to consider the murder as an honor killing, Orchard Park Police Chief Andrew Benz has noted: "We've been told that there's no place for that kind of action in their faith, but I wouldn't say that there's anything that's being completely ruled out at this point."

President Bush bent over backwards to reasure these people that he respected their religion and Obama is doing the same thing....both men are pandering or are very naive.

Believers of Islam are ticking time bombs........

Yet another could-have-been-prevented beheading slaughter,
still ignored by Homeland "Security", NOW and the LSM (Left Stream Media).

Aasiya Z. Hassan, 37 (known professionally as Aasiya Zubair) begged the Courts and NOW for help, in vain.

"non-Muslims overcome the negative images they may have of both Muslims and Islam"

It has become abundantly clear that we should NOT overcome our negative image of muslims and islam.

The lesbian lawyers and academics who run NOW will never lift a finger to fight against islam. If they are ever called out on it, they’ll either fold or take the side of islam. Or both.

The reason: they’re utter cowards, morally, physically, spiritually. They “fight” only against those who won’t fight back. Like civilized America.

Interesting: Having one's head sawed off is not torture!

Who thinks to cut someone’s head off but a Muslim or Mexican drug dealer?

And think how difficult it is to actually cut someone’s head off; cultural conditioning must be required.

He is a Moderate of the satanic Cult, he only cut his wife’s head off.

It would not be torture if she were already dead. Possibly the medical examiner’s report would shed light on that.

I know this is sexist, BUT: How could anyone but a PSYCHO kill such a beautiful woman?

[Anti-Bubba182]

Fox covered this.

Anyone who has bothered to take a few hours to read the koran knows that there is no such thing a moderate follower of their Moon god.
