Of course official islamic sites deny the existance of honor killings inside the religion and it's laws: http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/S...=1119503543392
But that doesn't change the fact that many, not just a few but MANY islamic families have and do take the law into their own hands and perform honor killings throughout the islamic world.
Again, widely investigated, widely documented, several credible documentaries done on this over the years. I saw on a tv newsmagazine series just recently about a few that have been reported within the past few months.

Sorry, but again you're off-base and sadly misinformed. If you think that thousands of young women in the muslim world aren't being brutally killed, some for having the temerity to simply want to marry who they want rather than who they are told to marry, then you simply aren't keeping yourself informed or you are flat-out ignoring the problem. I can see why you'd choose to ignore it, since it's a complete and utter shame on your entire way of life and belief system.
Fact is, that kind of thing doesn't happen over here in the evil decadent "Canada & US". If it does it's almost always if not always muslims doing it who have emigrated here. I can't recall a single news story of it happening here in fact, but I do remember an episode of Law & Order that dealt with it, something about muslims doing forced clit-ectomies on their daughters (and trying to justify it).
Explain honor killings to me if you can. |
I'm not a Muslim, first of all, so it doesn't put any shame on my way of life or any belief system I have. In fact the only thing that is putting any shame on a belief system that I have is people like you are still around, racist anti-Semites and what's worse you're from Canada.
You really need to get racism out of you and realize that Arab women aren't only free to do what they want, but they value themselves way more than American women and are viewed with respect in the Middle East unlike in America where they just have to be pretty, ditsy, and down to fuck. The whole notion that Muslim women are oppressed and can't leave their marriages is just racism, the same racism that people had when they thought black people were savages. Ew, you disgust me.
If you're trying to say that because a tiny fraction of the population does these honor killings things that it somehow makes all Muslims monsters? I guarantee you more Canadian/American women kill their infant babies each year than there is honor killings. Does that mean the Americans hate babies and kill babies? Of course not, it means unfortunately some people are misled into believing what they are doing is right when it isn't and that is unfortunate. But to generalize a billion people on the actions of a few hundred is just stupid, don't you agree?
