Amnesty International, whom I despise, estimates that literally THOUSANDS of these "honor killings" take place each year and that over 90% of them take place in the middle east. This, like terrorism, is done in the name of Allah and Islam. Just another reason why the West has issues with radical Islam. This shit apparently happens all the time and you NEVER hear anyone speak out against it...at least not here in the States. It is obviously an accepted practice in many parts of the middle east.

Catholics typically don't like it when one of their own marries a Christian or a Jew and vice versa, but I've not heard of any Catholics, Christians, or Jews being stoned to death in a public street for falling in love with someone of a different religion.

I dont' know how many times I've read stories of middle eastern girls who live in the States that have done things deemed inappropriate by their families standards (smoked, drank, danced, had sex, etc.) and are aboslutely terrified to return home because they fear death from their fathers and brothers. Truly sad.
