What, I don't care about culture, it is BS. This is the problem with our country, we try to be understanding of all other cultures, F that. You know what, that culture is wrong. This is not the 6th century. What kind of F'ed up person would ever think it is OK, or God's will to kill your own daughter? No matter what the circumstances. It is incomprehinsible how anyone could ever consider this "honor"

Yeah, they were certainly over the top with the rape and torture. What I understand is that they should send these two, and everyone that thinks we need to understand any of this, to Sweden for a sex change operation; wrap their azzes in a burka, and drop them off in that sh!t hole from where they came. | |

| firstly women arent considered anywhere near equals. thats one of the roots of the problem. These societies allow the trading of women to increase the social economic standing of the entire family. So by this thinking, if you have damaged goods the entire family is chastised and suffers. We have to change this concept little by little. And with modern technology, more and more women are reaching out and speaking up about this and other topics. When things like this become public. Its not the perpetrators of this crime we should be berating. They come from another culture and mindset. Instead, focus on teaching the youth of the places that there are different ways of doing things. Reach out to these women. Here at home, maybe support a battered womans shelter, or tell a buddy to kind of chill out when he treats his wife or daughter like ####e. The abuse of women only culminates in ten foot high flames, and for her its over in a flash of light heat and pain. For every one of these women, there are a thousand who live in the emotional dark, empty and cold of an abusive home, all over the world. Probably on our block..... the worlds problems are closer than we think. |

The difference, my dear, is that abuse of women is not sanctioned by the US government. We build women's shelters and provide financial aid so that our American-made ladies have choices and can get out of their abusive situation. Islamic women do not have that option. | |

| Women in the US and other developed countries do have support systems, but there are plenty of dirty little secrets to go around. The women in these other countries obviously are the victims of thousands of years of bad thinking. But the tide will turn as with all things. Technology is beginning to empower women all over the world . To support and encourage one another via cell phone, email, or mass media. One idea might be to encourage these unofficial support networks, by bringing mainstream attention onto these abusive environments. These government are run by the same people who grew up in the same environments as these perpetrators. What impetus do they have to change? Why does our government allow us to do business with these countries? We fund these regimes as long as the dollars flow smoothly. What exactly is a extremist liberal, VAiRAILBLoNDE? |
