Honour Killings
I think some of you on here need to watch out...

A father and his two sons have been found guilty of murdering his daughter's boyfriend in an "honour killing" after she became pregnant.

Yes, families killing their daughters or sons in law because she got pregnat (i.e without being married first). Or when the daughter runs off from a pre-arranged marriage with a man she haven't met before.

If the Irish took this tact, I wonder how long it would be before there were no longer any Irish?

Usually it's the female who gets killed, not the male.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
It's one of those things.
If a Muslim does something it is because of their religion.
If two different people fight and one gets killed then it is a racially motivated murder.
the media suck.

Ok sorry, I admit it sounds a bit ignorant - that wasn't the intention.
But....
As Boogster says - it's just relationship/family related murders have been quite rife in the media lately

You're correct, and this thread is obviously fairly prejudiced. If the same thread was made about a specific race then it'd have been closed by now I guess.
However, I think the point is that there may be something about the core beliefs of Islam (or the strength with which they are held) which leads to an increased level of violence of this kind. This may be an unjustified position to take, but it seems to be the one that most people who are making these sorts of comments are coming from.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
On another note.... I was catching up on the news today. These were the headlines I read:
Two men accused of plotting a bomb attack have been remanded in custody.
Waseem Mughal, from Kent, and Younis Tsouli, from west London, both 22, were charged with conspiracy to murder and to cause an explosion.
Muslim graves destroyed in city
Dozens of Muslim grave stones have been smashed and pushed over in a cemetery in Handsworth in Birmingham.
French Muslims face job discrimination
As part of a series on French Muslims, the BBC News website's Henri Astier looks at the issue of discrimination, a leading source of frustration in France's unemployment-riddled ghettos.
Five jailed for race hate crimes
Five white supremacists have been jailed for a total of 15 years at the Old Bailey for creating and distributing race hate material against Muslims, Jews and Blacks.
Family guilty of 'honour killing'
A father and his two sons have been found guilty of murdering his daughter's boyfriend in an "honour killing" after she became pregnant.
Police Muslim cartoon 'sacrilege'
A chief constable has condemned the portrayal of Muslims in a police magazine cartoon, describing it as offensive and sacrilegious.
I fear there may be more and more similar headlines in the future. It's not a very good situation in terms of race relations right now is it....

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
Oh yeh, and...
Algerians jailed for eating lunch
Muslims break their fast at dusk during Ramadan
An Algerian court has sent four men to jail for eating lunch in a restaurant during the holy month of Ramadan.
During this period, practising Muslims are meant to observe a fast between the hours of dawn and dusk.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
The father and the brothers got the jail for a Non-state sanctioned murder... and rightly so. I think it is safe to say Murder is a greater wrong than having kids out of wedlock.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
It has more to do with feudalism than religion. However, claiming the the religious aspect isnt important at all is going to far I belive.
Honour killings is not only targeting the woman, but it can also target males in the woman's familiy.
Honour killings have also been done in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
Honour killings has nothing to do with Islam.
It's small-minded bigots that think it's got to do with Islam.
Just as much as "terrorists" do things in the name of Islam.

I'm curious as to how much you know about Islam. Of course, you may well be right, but I'm still curious.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
People jumping in over a perceived injustice committed by one poster against another when obviously neither of the posters involved takes it either seriously or personally is not a good thing.

Re: [Islam] Honour Killings
Oh i saw what you did there!
Anyway, myths/rumours usually have some basis from whence they came. Ofc its not right to be biggoted, but how many honour killings or whatever you like to call it, happen in christian/white/etc families.
This is another example of verbus diaorreahus that i suffer from, please be gentle
