There was a repeat telecast of that "Honor killing in America" on FOX yesterday.
I tuned in in the middle, and this muslim woman (speaking in the dark to protect her ID) was asked to comment on how the men who do this honor killing say it is islam. The woman said "they do not know what Islam is about". <!--emo&

Then they showed a woman who has written books on the subject, herself an ex-muslim (I am guessing) who said that it is Islam. She said muslim men need to do only a few of these killings to keep the rest of the women in line. She was asked why honor killing has increased of late. She said is is becos jihad has increased. Jihad hates West, and a liberated woman is a symbol of the west.
Like I posted before, one of the testimonies of a muslim from saudi on faithfreedom.org says that a muslim can kill his daughter and tell the judge he did it to preserve the good name of islam, and judge has to let him go (in saudi) since Mohamed said unmarried woman is her father's property.
