Murdered in name of family honour

Maher Shakirat summoned three of his sisters to discuss a family uproar after one of them, Rudaina, was thrown out by her husband for an alleged affair. Then he forced the three women to drink bleach before strangling Rudaina. The other sisters tried to flee but Maher caught and strangled Amani, 20. The third, Leila, escaped but was badly injured by the bleach. The murders were the latest in a series of brutal "honour killings" that have shaken the Palestinian community over recent weeks. The deaths have prompted demands for a change to laws that deem all women to be "minors" under the authority of male relatives. But those calls have met with resistance in parliament where religious Palestinian MPs argue that reform will lead to a collapse in the moral fabric of society. "Men feel they have lost their dignity and that they can somehow restore it by upholding the family's honour. We've noticed recent cases are much more violent in nature; attempts to kill, rape, incest. There is an incredible amount of incest." Amira Abu Hanhan Qaoud murdered her daughter, Rafayda, because she became pregnant after being raped by two of her brothers. "My daughter fell over and broke her knee. I took her to hospital and there the doctor told me she was pregnant. So I killed her. It's as simple as that," said Mrs Qaoud on her doorstep in Ramallah. Mrs Qaoud waited until the baby was born and given up for adoption. Then she presented her 22 year-old daughter with a razor blade and told her to slash her wrists. She refused so her mother pulled a plastic bag over her head, sliced her wrists and beat her head with a stick.

I didn't realize rape, incest and murder are part of the "moral fabric" of society ... oh, sorry, I forgot -- he's talking about Islamic society!

"It's geneticly IMPOSSIBLE!!!"


You seem very preoccupied with race, Badmonkey. I can't see that this has anything to do with race. It has to do with an Islamic tribal culture that hasn't changed for centuries, and doesn't recognize individual freedom.

"I'm wondering now if the Soviet Revolution was in fact, a "Jewish" revolution"

The Nazis thought so, too. What have you been reading lately? The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion or something?

"So we may be talking about another type of JEWISH holocost, the ones when they were pulling the triggers."


I see. Jews were responsible for Stalin sending millions of people to the Gulag? Phlueese.

I try to be very lenient with freedom of speech here, but you're hijacking this thread about honor killings with incoherent, anti-Semitic nonsense about Lenin and the Soviet Union. It's testing my patience.

"Given that the SOVIET UNION killed - what, 30,000,000,000 of its own people,..."

Are you counting all of their pets, farm animals, roaches and rats, also?

With all of your interest in Jews, have you read "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion?" It seems like something right up your alley.

"According to news.google.com your southern border to Mexico is pretty hot place and more and more people (even with minority background) are very upset because your officials are ignoring immigration problem."

A large majority of people in the U.S. are upset with the illegal immigration problem (regardless of race or ethnic group, even and especially legal immigrants). The exceptions are the illegal immigrants themselves, the far left, many business interests and certain religious organizations (including the Catholic church).

Most politicians want nothing to do with the problem. The state and local politicians blame the federal government (rightly so, it is a federal responsibility) and the federal politicians and officials just pretend it is not a problem.

When Islamic terrorist cross the border and kill thousands of people, THEN the federal government will do something -- of course, it will be too late.

"... Thats why you had lynchings in America. They were a reaction against BLACK VIOLENCE...."

Anyone over 50 who grew up in the U.S. south (and wasn't in the KKK or John Birch Society) could tell you that it is historically incorrect that lynchings were a reaction against black violence -- and capitalizing the letters doesn't change anything. The lynching (of blacks) was used to intimidate them into political, social, and economic submission. Only about 25% of black lynchings were due to black-on-white crime (whether real or perceived).

"And that's the reason I think you are not talking about KKK. IMO you are talking about the KKK legend. This legend was created as a part of official mythology."

Frankly, I don't care what you think you know about the KKK. I DO know the KKK. There is no "official mythology" or legend about the KKK. The only mythology I have heard of is the kind that you try to propagate.

"Maybe you should open old albums with photos of your country/city/street before and after "multicultural enrichment"."

I don't need to open old albums to know what happened (or read the books or watch the movies) -- I lived it! I saw cross burnings and houses being burned down. I lived close to where people were murdered for the crime of being "black." I not only saw the KKK in action, but I personally knew some of them.

I must admit you surprised me. I'm familiar with the revisionist historians that spew the Holocaust denial tripe, but this is the first time I've heard of KKK denial.

Regarding the Klan, they are neither the devil incarnate nor poor misunderstood peaceniks. The Klan started out as a purely defensive vigilante group that filled a void caused by the punative reconstruction imposed on the south which left the south without any real law and left southern Whites subject to abuse from Blacks and their puppet masters from the north backed by union troops. Over time and infiltration by not so honorable people, it led the Klan to do some very hideous things and I do agree with Don that a certain percentage of people were killed solely for being Black in the early to mid 20th century. However, the current indoctrination is to paint ALL of the Klan as evil subversives that are constantly skulking around to hurt Blacks or other non-Whites. This is not true, in my opinion. For if it was, they would not need to put on trial an 80 year old man for his crimes ~40 years ago. They would have fresh and daily examples of the evil. To me, the present Klan is toothless and powerless. They are kept in the limelight by anti-racist egalitarian Marxists to keep all Whites in check and not to step outside the egalitarian party line.

{Jews} add to a nation's wealth, knowledge base and polity, unlike the practioners of Islam who usually detract from those things.

If Europe doesn't want its Jews, send 'em to us in the US. We'll take all you got.

The last time Europe decided to beat up on its Jews, we got Albert Einstein and most of the founders of the Golden Age of Hollywood out of the deal.
- Irene Adler

To use the Jewish vernacular, Oi Vey! :) Let's not get too carried away and if the choice was between Jew or Muslim, then Jew of course though I do find Muslims, when in a small group or one on one are very nice people. It is just that "crazy" religion of theirs that is very intolerant of pretty much everything and it is headed by very extreme individuals. So even if there are "moderate" Muslims, they have no voice due to the overbearing control of the extremists. I do not buy the "religion of peace" mantra that Islam is trying to be painted as either.

While I agree that Jews have more than their fair share of accomplishments and societal benefit, they also have been a thorn in White Christian societies side for eons as well. I'm not oblivious to the back and forth abuse from Christians towards Jews in history either. With that said, Jews have played an instrumental role in our decay as an American society over the last century. Here is a link that illustrates the role of Jewish influence on societies, including the US over time. It quotes a lot from Kevin MacDonald, the biggest Jew analyzer of our time. You can love him or hate him, but one cannot ignore some of his work. Some buy it whole, though I am not a complete follower. I think Jews played a role, and the role was quite influential though I do not view them as the SOLE reason and I do not put the ENTIRE blame on them. I think there is enough blame to go around as to why we are where we are. I blame White Liberal elites MORE as to the reasons we have such a huge mess racially than I do Jews. I know it is easy to blame Jews as a simple knee jerk reaction though we have to be honest about these very serious and delicate circumstances.
