"Honor" Killing

Hat Tip LGF

On May 8, 2004, the Ottawa Citizen published a story "Burned Alive: A Victim of the Law of Men" which details in some detail what life was like for a Palestinian female in her village and the honor killing that is done there.

It can be difficult to read and hard to believe that this practice is accepted today. If Christians allowed such things to happen today, it would be rightly denounced as barbarism. When will the leaders of Islam do the same, if it is a religion of peace, why are the leaders not denouncing the practice and so change the culture?
