At least one person dies each week in Istanbul because of an honor killing.
Stop Honor Killings and the Turkish Daily News reported:
In Istanbul, at least one person dies every week because of honor killings according to the report, which is the most comprehensive in its field. The number of murders committed for honor in the last five years has exceeded 1,000. The murderers are treated as heroes in prisons and they do not regret their crimes.
“The Report on Honor Killings” was presented by the president of the Prime Ministry's Human Rights Directorate, professor Dr. Tahsin Fendoğlu, at a meeting called “Women and Participation: Problems and Solutions.” According to the report, the number of honor killings was 150 in 2002, while it rose to 220 in 2007. Occurrence of honor killings is inversely proportional with education levels. Not only women but also men fall victim to honor killings. Besides, around 9 percent of the murders are committed by children.
The report declares that metropolitan cities are leading crime scenes of honor killings. In the last five years, 167 people were murdered in Istanbul. Ankara followed with 144, İzmir with 121, and Diyarbakır with 69.

This has nothing to do with Islam!
Islam is peace!
In Islam women are honored and protected!
In Islam.... bleh... I gotta stop before I throw up.
This just proves what I've been saying about Turkey for a while. And they want into the EU. Well, considering that the number of "honor murders" in the EU is also rising they might actually feel at home!

Well I have got food for thoughts for you.
In Bangladesh where 84% of the 145 million people are Muslims there are not a single case of honor killing.
However in some other societies (including some Arab states and Pakistan) it is prevalent.
While I deplore such killings I think its better to concentrate on respective societies and cultures rather than throwing up on a religion.
every other day a daughter is muyrdered by her father or brother...
ReplyDeletethe men who are raised in muslim homes to be able to do this - and call it honorable - will of course have no problem with genocide against infidels.
that's why i think this is the ROOT CAUSE.
we need to end this as we ended slavery.
all nations which permit this should be shunned from any and all international orgs and treaties: no UN membership, no money from the WB or IMF, no WTO benefits - etc.
completely shunned.
and then a 100% tariff on their goods - in and out.
until islamo-misogyny is erased we will have jihado-terrorism.
"In Bangladesh...there are not a single case of honor killing."
ReplyDeleteOh really? The United Nations (among other organizations) has reported cases of "honor" killings in Bangladesh. Also throwing acid on women's faces.
"Honor killing is currently virtually unknown in Muslim sub-Saharan Africa, Bangladesh and Indonesia. It is most commonly practiced by Muslim Arabs, Kurds, Turks, Afghans and Pakistanis and their immigrant populations abroad. It now occurs in every Western country burdened with a Muslim immigrant subculture."
