Spinning Out Of Control: Honor Killings and Media BiasContinue reading
We are entering an all-spin zone, a wild, weird and spooky season and I am not talking about Halloween.
With a few exceptions, the mainstream media continue to kill stories about honor killings and attempted honor killings in North America. How often did you read stories about the honor killings that took place in Toronto (07), Dallas (08), Atlanta (08), Oak Forest, Illinois (08), Alexandria (08), Buffalo (09), and Kingston, Canada (09)—on and on, until the most recent attempted honor killing in Phoenix?
There are two killers still on the loose: Yaser Said, the Dallas monster out of Egypt who abused, stalked, and murdered his two daughters with the help of his wife, their mother, and his son, their brother.
Iraqi-born Faleh Hassan Almaleki is another foul killer on the lam. Just last week, he ran over his 20-year-old daughter, Noor, with a car because she was “too western.” Imagine: This father used two tons of steel rage against his daughter. He mowed her down with a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Faleh also tried to kill the older woman who was with her, Amal Edan Khalef, with whom Noor was living. Amal had probably rescued Noor, but she was also the mother of Noor’s boyfriend. Both women are now in the hospital; Noor remains unconscious and is barely clinging to life.
At issue: Apparently, Noor had been fighting with her father for years. She did not want to remain in her arranged marriage and indeed, left the Middle East and dared to choose a boyfriend of her own. Yes, like the Said sisters, Noor also had pages on Facebook and at MySpace too. Noor knew she was living in the United States and not in the Middle East. Apparently, her father did not accept this as reality.
With the exception of brief, one-time reportage, (USA Today, AP, ABC News, etc.) the mainstream national media has not really covered this story. Only True Crime Reports has updated it. When it comes to Islam and honor killings, political, anthropological, historical, and psychological information is rarely brought to bear on the single story. Suddenly, completely out of context, one lone individual or one lone family just up and murders their daughter or their sister. No rhyme or reason to it. Case closed.

The Left Enables islamic "Honor" Murders
It’s extremely frustrating when you have academics, politicians, reporters, journalists and other assorted leftist miscreants providing cover for the horrific islamic practice of "honor" killings by maliciously and falsely claiming this is practiced by other cultures, yes even in Appalachia here in the US! This of course is complete crap. As far as I’m concerned these apologists are accessories to murder. Women and girls are being murdered, others lives are in danger even in the west, and liberals don't care. Their only priority is to make sure that islam doesn't get blamed. Protecting islam is more important than protecting the lives of individuals endangered from islam. These people who proclaim themselves the champions of human rights are enablers of islamic fascism, of the human rights atrocities committed against women and non-muslims in the muslim world. In reality for the left, human rights take a back seat to issues of solidarity with the forces who are waging war against the west and Israel. They can never acknowledge the evil done in the name of islam because it conflicts with their worldview of the muslim world as the poor victims of western, especially American and Israeli “aggression” and “colonialism”. In reality however it is the muslims who are the aggressive conquerors.
