#1 I suggest that a woman's secret society be formed to punish men responsible for such murder. A gang of women catches one, then cuts off his genitalia and facial lips.

Such men are inherently cowardly dogs, and the men that support such honor killings are equally cowardly. If they fear a risk to themselves, they will stop being brutes.

#2 The repugnance I feel when reading this story is palpable. It's after I read things like this that I'm ready to see nukes used on this sick, insane excuse for a civilization. People who could do, and support, actions like this simply don't deserve to be treated as human.

#3 he has no honor, and apparently (from the earlier abuse) never did.

*spit*

#4 I still have not figured out this islamic-honor thing.

The father is "responsible" for the actions of his daughter. Since the father messed up and raised an infidel for a daughter, it's the father's fault and he should kill himself. That's the definition of honor deaths in Japan.

In islam it's always somebody else's fault.

#5 I like Anonymoose's suggestion, actually. Back in the days of the frontier, it was the women of the warrier tribes like the Comanche who were most especially notorious for the inventive way they had of torturing captives.

It would be nice, in the way of cultural sharing n' caring to put the women of Iraq in touch with women of the Amerind Tribes who have knowlege of their traditions... wouldn't it?

We hear so much about honoring tradtional cultural ways... would't it be keen to pass some of those on?

Especially those which have to do with sharp knives.

#8 what vicious monsters to be able to kill your own daughter and sister in this way.

#10 I am, Muggsy G- although everyone who clicks on the link or goes to one of my book signings and buys my book makes my economic postion all that much better.
One of my late employer's clients hired me to do marketing for his business - and I am working like a dog to finish and polish my new book(s) the Adelsverien Trilogy to be available by 2008.

This story makes me so sad, though - as the mother of a daughter and as a woman who fell in love with another member of the services. My parents liked him and thought he would do well as a prospective SIL. So sad to think that by the rules of this culture, they would have been justified in killing me, him and by extension, my daughter.

#11 This is the face of Islam. The face the MSM and CAIR don't want you to see. Intolerance, hate and subjugation. The faster its power is broken, the better. One way is to make sure the youth of the Islamic world sees this story and its counterpart (and happy non-dead ending) from the west.

#12 Is there absolutely no hope of getting some laws through the new government to curb this $hit?
