You are so right. I am a mother and a grandmother. I could not imagine one carrying a child and allowing that to happen. It is beyond my comprehension. Why haven't we won the war we are no barbaric enough!

I absolutely don't want this in America. Fundamentalism is fanaticism. Religious fanatics of any stripe are dangerous to themselves and others. How can anyone even contemplate such actions never mind carrying them out? As you say, it's barbarism.

I so very much appreciate your reading and commenting. Only when those of us who are willing to communicate to understand where each stands and learn who is who will there be honor and safety anywhere in the world. Who wants to bring beautiful children into the world and kill them for the simple sake of pride? Absolutely Satanic and Barbaric. Thank you for your view!

Cruelty and abuse cannot masqerade as religion and honor. Here in Syria a country where 95% of the population is Muslim, there are calls to outlaw the honor killings althoug they are very rare. If you walk in the streets many girls are wearing western dress, full make up, they sit in public places often in groups of boys and girls. Many parents are aware that their daughters have some sort of romantic reltionships but only in very backward communities do they advocate violence against the girl. It is ironic that the reason many fundamentalists are found in the West is becuase they are not welcome in their own countries as they have a history of being a source of unrest and intolerance. Shariyya does not sanction the murder of honor, adultery is porven only when four witnesses see the man and woman during sex, anything less than that is considered invalid to tarnish the women's reputation let alone punish her.
Nothing can bring this girl back to life, but i agree with those who said that Islamic laws are for muslim countries, God knows they are not the barbaric rules these animals are implementing.

Of course I am. But you forgot I am not running for anything. I am not of the right party and I am not politically correct so I am unfair. Good to see you where have you been so long?

This is true also; however, we have a group called leftist who require all to be politically correct and need to open their eyes to the reality of the laws of people who are not Westernized. Allow them to have their laws in their country and not in ours; they will not allow that themselves. They want to do their way in the West. If they don't want their children westernized they should stay in the Middle East.

Yes it is true that the police fell short of their work. However, it is also true that we are being just as blind. This is the tradition of these people and we are closing our eyes to the reality of this. Thanks for reading and commenting.

This is unbelievably sad and unsetting. The fault lies with the Police who must take the evidence and accounts of young girls seriously. I hope that if anything emerges from this case it will be that lesson and the police will fulfill their duty to protect the citizens of this country.
