Honestly, when you have a culture in which a father could so casually slash the throat of his own daughter and the local and government authorities to allow this to happen, how can you deal with a culture like this? This is the type of culture that led to the creation of the Taliban and other islamic terrorist organizations.

You must have missed the bulletin, it wasn't a liberal who chose to spend American blood and who knows how many American taxpayer $$$ fighting to bring democracy to an Islamic country.

" Islam, as practiced by the vast majority of people, is a peaceful religion, a religion that respects others" ___ G W Bush


WHY?

This happened in another country, we don't deal with this because we are not the world's police. If this was in the US, the man would be going to prison for murder like any other murderer in this country.

*sigh*

It's not Islam - it is that Islam has been hijacked by lunatics who used warped and/or overly literal interpretations of the Koran to support their violent beliefs. Top that off with the horrible lack of education and access to real information among the peasants in that part of the world, and you have the perfect setup to brainwash countless people into being violent minions.

The Church did the same during the Dark Ages, convincing people to kill in the name of Jesus, as horribly absurd as that sounds. They even used the same tactics - warping the word of God, keeping the people ignorant and cut-off from information, etc.

Heck, if you took all of the Bible literally, particularly the laws in the Old Testament, you could create a horrifying theocracy that would be just as bad as what's been created in parts of the Middle East using a warped version of Islam.

It's not America - it is that America has been hijacked by a lunatic Supreme Court who use warped and/or overly literal interpretations of the Constitution to support their warped beliefs.

Whoa!! That worked seamlessly....is there a common denominator here?

We have to deal with the philosophy of Islam which enforces honor killing of women .

And how should we deal with people being killed in other countries? And why is this more important than women being killed in Africa or women being killed in the US?
