Marc Sheppard at American Thinker:
Let’s never forget “domestic violence” victim Aqsa Parvez, the 16-year-old Canadian girl whose father strangled her for refusing to wear the traditional Muslim head scarf in 2007. Or Amina and Sarah Said of Dallas, both murdered by their father in 2008 for dating non-Muslim boys. Or Sandeela Kanwal of Georgia, who was strangled to death by her Muslim father, Chaudhry Rashid, last July.
Rashid’s actions are of special note here, as he actually admitted his motive to be protecting his family’s honor from the divorce his daughter was planning.
Yet the silence persists. Where the hell are all the pissed-off women’s groups? This sister was beheaded! Here! In America!
At around 10:30 AM EST this morning, the website for Bridges Television also went silent, replaced with the message “This website is temporarily down for maintenance.” Whether this was a permanent shutdown or “maintenance” to either scrub all references to or make absurd apologies for the butcher Hassan, only time will tell.
Meanwhile, say it loud – This was another Honor Killing.
Welcome to the Dhimmi House.
Civility NOW!!!
Feminists would really like to take a position on this, but it unfortunately doesn’t fit into teh narrative.
You’re just saying that to curry favor with teh mens.
When Jack Torrence with an axe chases his wife and son around the Overlook Hotel he is a monster.
When I Muslim father has to lay down Sharia law with a “misbehaving” wife of daughter we look at it as a cultural thing we sould stay out of.
I bet if we really put our heads together, we could figure out how Western Society made these men do it. I’m thinking we’ll need to use the words oppression, paradigm, and fuck.
Delbert Grady: Did you know, Mr. Torrance, that your son is attempting to bring an outside party into this situation? Did you know that?
Jack Torrance: No.
Delbert Grady: He is, Mr. Torrance.
Jack Torrance: Who?
Delbert Grady: A nigger.
Jack Torrance: A nigger?
Delbert Grady: A nigger cook.
Jack Torrance: How?
Delbert Grady: Your son has a very great talent. I don’t think you are aware how great it is. That he is attempting to use that very talent against your will.
Jack Torrance: He is a very willful boy.
Delbert Grady: Indeed he is, Mr. Torrance. A very willful boy. A rather naughty boy, if I may be so bold, sir.
Jack Torrance: It’s his mother. She, uh, interferes.
Delbert Grady: Perhaps they need a good talking to, if you don’t mind my saying so. Perhaps a bit more. My girls, sir, they didn’t care for the Overlook at first. One of them actually stole a pack of matches, and tried to burn it down. But I “corrected” them sir. And when my wife tried to prevent me from doing my duty, I “corrected” her.
Tell me how that fictional exchange above is any different than the justification some Muslim men use to kill their wives or children?
Well, are they going to be punished like westerners, at least?

And SarahW, in answer to your question, probably not. Certainly not in Canada and Europe. I can live a little profanity from the neighbors. But can we live with this?
Doesn’t this at least rate a made for TV movie? They’re doing such wonderful things with makeup nowadays that they could make Meredith Baxter Birney look like a young Muslim woman, couldn’t they? What? She’s not interested?
Maybe thor could do it. He’s done everything else.
Usually I’d be in favor of “putting our heads together” but given the subject I think we should spread out at least 4 feet.
And while I’m on a roll, maintenance is a broad category… obviously some people interpret the Koran as allowing for the cranial maintenance of one’s property… such as, let’s say a wife… the easiest way to maintain said cranium is to remove it. Duh.
Impure thoughts? Gone.
Making her own choices? Bah.
“OK then, so you want to be head of the house…?”
Truly one of the worlds great religions.
Maybe Islam should give some marriage seminars.
What nifty slogans could they trademark?
Islam, making marriage easier one mind at a time?
Anyway, a cursory reading of the Koran does seem to reveal that using your former spouses newly beheaded skull as a bowling ball is frivolous… bowling is banned after all. Ditto soccer.
