| Palestinian 'shot by relatives over daughter's name' |
| 2012-12-07 |
| EL-ARISH, Egypt (Ma'an) -- A Palestinian businessman says his relatives shot him in Egypt's Sinai because he named his daughter Isabella. Huh??? The man was visiting his brother in Sheikh Zuweid in North Sinai with his Swedish wife and two sons. Sorry, honey. They're usually not like this... GET THAT INFIDEL BITCH OUTTA HERE! One of his relatives shot him in the leg claiming that naming his daughter Isabella was against Islamic law, the businessman told a Ma'an reporter. Where's it say that? BANG! |

| #1 Didn't Isabella conquer the last Moorish kingdom in al Andalus? I could see why naming your daughter after the queen of the conquistadors might upset someone who takes his submission and his history seriously. I'm trying to think of a parallel faux pas... my brother-in-law deliberately named his firstborn after Milos Obilic, but he doesn't have any Muslim or Turkish relatives or in-laws... |
