    Crimes in the name of honor.  Rumors were circulating in the village

    Here is such material found in "Armenia Today":
    -

    One of the latest taboo topics is the murder of at least 20,000 women a year in the name of so-called "honor", writes The Independent columnist Robert Fisk. "Moreover, the problem is not limited to the territory of the Middle East: the infection is spreading rapidly," he notes.

    This is a tragedy and a crime against humanity, the author believes. "The details of the murders - and for the sake of 'family honor' women are decapitated, burned, stoned, cut, electrocuted, strangled and buried alive - are equally shameful and barbaric," writes Robert Fisk. Many women's organizations in the Middle East and Southwest Asia suspect that there are at least four times as many casualties as the UN, which recently estimates that there are about 5,000 a year. Most of the victims are young women and girls, including teenagers.

    The newspaper spent 10 months investigating Jordan, Pakistan, Egypt, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank of Jordan, the author reports. As a result, horrific details emerged.

    The author notes that men are also killed for reasons of honor. "Although journalists describe honor killings as a predominantly Muslim practice, Christian and Hindu communities have fallen into the same crimes," the article says. According to human rights activists and the media, the killings of innocent people who allegedly dishonored their families are on the rise from year to year.

    It seems that most of the crimes are committed by Iraqi Kurds, Palestinians in Jordan, as well as in Pakistan and Turkey. "But perhaps the freedom of the press in these countries paints a false picture when compared to the countries where honor killings are shrouded in a veil of silence - Egypt (whose authorities dishonestly claim that there are no honor killings) and other countries in the Persian Gulf and the Levant. "Honor killings have also long since spread to the UK, Belgium, Russia, Canada and many other countries. Law enforcement agencies and courts in many countries in the Middle East are condoning, reducing or eliminating prison sentences for murders of women by relatives, and often classify them as suicides, to avoid prosecution," the article says.

    In Jordan and Egypt, there are cases when men raped their own daughters, and then, when they became pregnant, they killed them for the honor of the family. The father and grandfather of 16-year-old Turkish woman Medina Mehmi buried her alive in the ground for her friendship with the guys. 13-year-old Aisha Ibragim Duhulov in 2008 in Somalia was buried up to her neck in the ground in front of a crowd of thousands. 50 men threw stones at her for adultery. “After 10 minutes, they dug her up, found that she was still alive, and returned to the pit to be stoned again. What is her crime? She was raped by three men, and her relatives decided to report this to the leaders of the armed group Al -Shabab", which manages this area," the author writes. In Pakistan, near Daharka, the body of a woman was found in an irrigation ditch, who was killed by relatives "out of honor" at the moment when she gave birth to her second child. Before she was hacked to death with an ax, her ears and lips were cut off. On a pile of her clothes lay the corpse of her first baby, the body of the newborn remained in the womb, but the head was already sticking out. A Muslim cleric refused to perform a funeral ceremony for "a cursed woman and her illegitimate children."

    “The details of these murders are so terrible, and there are so many women killed that the story of each can turn horrors into banality,” the author notes, but urges not to forget about the victims.

    "It is outrageous that rape is also a punishment for crimes against honor," the author writes. In the village of Mirwala in Punjab, in 2002, a tribal court ruled that an 11-year-old Gujjar boy had dishonored her tribe by walking with a 30-year-old Masta woman, and therefore the boy's 18-year-old sister should be gang-raped. Then the girl was forced to walk through the village naked. "Only a week later, the police nevertheless registered the crime, and then as a complaint," the newspaper writes. For crimes against honor, they can be thrown with acid, as Bilal Khar from Karachi did in 2001 when his wife left him and returned to her mother's house in the "red light district".

    In terms of the number of officially recorded "honour" killings, the second place, after Pakistan, is apparently occupied by Turkey. Women's organizations estimate that at least 200 girls and women are killed there every year on this basis, but many consider these figures to be grossly underestimated. 17-year-old Deria, who fell in love with a classmate, received text messages from her uncle and brothers demanding that she commit suicide in order to wash away the shame from her family. She tried unsuccessfully to kill herself several times and then took refuge in a shelter for women who are being abused.

    Murat Kara from the city of Diyarbakir confessed in 2007 that 13 years earlier, on the orders of his mother and uncles, he had killed his sister for escaping with her lover. "Before the murder, the neighbors refused to talk to him, and the imam said that if he did not kill his sister, he would oppose the will of Allah," the article says. Honor killings of women do not only occur among Kurds in Turkey, the author notes. In 2001, an Istanbul court changed the prison sentences of the three brothers from life to terms ranging from 4 to 12 years. They threw their sister off the bridge, accusing her of prostitution. "The court ruled that her behavior provoked the murder," the author writes.

    According to Azo Kamal from Doaa Network Against Violence, from 1991 to 2007, only in three Kurdish provinces of Iraq, 12.5 thousand women were killed "out of honor". Many women are ordered by relatives to commit suicide by dousing themselves with burning oil. But in Iraq, it is not only the Kurds who commit such crimes. In Tikrit, a young woman who was in the local jail told her brother that she had been raped by a guard and had become pregnant. Her brother came to visit her and shot her on the pretext of family honor. "In Basra in 2008, the police recorded that 15 women a month were killed for wearing clothes that did not correspond to Muslim traditions," the newspaper writes. 19-year-old Shabvo Ali Rauf was shot by relatives after finding an unfamiliar number on her mobile phone.

    "In Jordan, women's organizations claim that the Christian minority (just over 5 million) has more honor killings per capita than Muslims, often because Christian women want to marry Muslims. But the Christian community tries not to discuss their crimes, and most of the known cases are murders committed by Muslims," ​​the author writes. In 2005, three Jordanians stabbed to death a 22-year-old married sister for having a lover. They did not touch the lover himself. "Many Jordanian families come from Palestine. 9 months ago, a Palestinian stabbed to death his married sister for bad behavior, as he put it," the author writes.

    Human Rights Watch has long condemned the Palestinian Authority's police and judiciary for its near-total failure to protect women in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank from honor killings. In 2005, an older brother strangled his 17-year-old sister because she became pregnant, and from her own father. Earlier, the girl reported her father to the police, but he was not even interrogated.

    Honor killings happen even in liberal Lebanon. In Syria, civil society organizations demand tougher penalties for killing women, but as a result, the terms of imprisonment for murderers of relatives for extramarital sex were increased to only two years. In Iran and Afghanistan, honor killings often take place on the basis of tribal strife. In India, there are cases when the bride and groom are killed by relatives who are dissatisfied with their plans to get married, since the bride belongs to a lower caste.

    "In Chechnya, President Ramzan Kadyrov, chosen by the Russian federal authorities, is practically encouraging men to kill for the sake of 'honor'. When seven murdered women were found in Grozny with gunshot wounds to the head and chest, Kadyrov announced - without any evidence, but with obvious approval - that they were killed for their immoral lifestyle. Commenting on the report that a Chechen girl called the police to complain about her abusive father, he hinted that a man should be able to kill his daughter - they say, if he does not kill her, what kind of man is he, he disgrace himself," the article says.

    Immigrant families sometimes bring the cruel traditions of their native villages to the West, the author writes. "In St. Petersburg, an immigrant from Azerbaijan is accused of hiring hitmen to kill his daughter because she neglected national traditions - she wore a miniskirt," the article says. Honor crimes are also committed in the UK: Pakistani Mohamed Riaz, for example, burned his wife and four children alive for their Western habits and died shortly thereafter of the burns himself. Scotland Yard has long recognized that there is a need to review more than 100 deaths, some more than 10 years old, that bear a resemblance to honor killings.

    Umar ibn al-Khattab reported that the Messenger
    Allah said: “Let no one ask a man
    Why is he beating his wife?
    (Abu Dawud, Book 11, Hadith 2139-2142)

    Islam often makes women suffer, but for some reason it is not customary to talk about this in modern society. A Muslim woman is perceived only as a pleasant addition to her husband, nothing more. To save the “honor of the family”, wives are beheaded, stoned, cut, strangled and buried alive… These shameful and barbaric customs are not a relic of the past, but a reality of the 21st century. HistoryTime will talk about the most high-profile "honor killings" because this need know.

    Second Kim Kardashian

    Kandil Baloch

    The Europeans enthusiastically called the Pakistani model Kandil Baloch “the second”, compatriots admired her independence, but Pakistani men did not appreciate the courage of the masterful girl .. They were extremely offended by the photos of the girl in skimpy outfits, which she joyfully posted in batches on social networks. However, the last straw in the patience of the Pakistanis was a picture of a model in an embrace with a Muslim mufti. Threats began to pour in against the Kandil family. The girl turned to law enforcement agencies for help, but they refused her. Such religious laws.

    The family was forced to move from the largest city of Karachi to the Punjab province. It would seem that no one knew about them there, and one would not have to worry about their safety. But the trouble came from where they did not expect.

    The girl's brother, Vazim Baloch, was ashamed of his sister. Friends kept sending him new ones. erotic pictures Kandil, accompanying the pictures with obscene comments. In the end, excessive attention brought the young man so much that he decided on ... murder.

    I am proud of what I have done. I drugged her and then I killed her. Girls should stay at home, and she brought dishonor to our family.

    Deadly Facebook

    In February 2014, the media space exploded with news: in Syria, a sixteen-year-old girl was stoned to death for registering on Facebook and posting her photo there. Such an act of hers was equated with the sin of adultery, and the lover herself social networks in addition, everything was accused of excessive narcissism.

    Fatum al-Jasim

    Young Fatum al-Jasim was a resident of the Syrian city of Raqqa. This settlement and the areas adjacent to it are controlled. The terrorists insist on strict adherence to Sharia law, according to which the free communication of a woman without the permission of a man is obscene behavior.

    Muslim prescriptions do not clearly articulate what to do with lovers of social networks. For this reason, the official court sentenced Fatum to execution, which is usually the case for women convicted of adultery: the girl was stoned to death in public.

    bloody wedding

    Islamic women are forbidden to choose their own life partner. In 2008, five girls, three of whom were teenagers, were tortured for choosing to marry for love. By the way, this also happened in Pakistan.

    The compatriots first beat the willful women, then shot them, and threw the bodies into the nearest ditch, where, finally, they stoned them. Two old women saw this and began to beg the killers to stop - they suffered the same fate. Like, there is nothing to open your mouth when men get down to business. The case, of course, caused an extraordinary resonance. Commenting on the incident on local television, Pakistani MP Izrarula Zehri said:

    Such killings are centuries-old traditions of our people. I will follow my story.

    Even parents will not protect "criminal" daughters. In 2003, 23-year-old Afshiin, after a divorce, ran away to her lover named Hassan. The father considered such self-will of his daughter a shame for the family.

    He called Afshiin and said that he was extremely upset by her act. In addition, he added that he would be extremely happy if the girl returned home and would not punish her. Out of pity, the daughter returned to her old father. This day was the last in her life. The man later told police:

    I gave her sleeping pills in her tea and then strangled her with a scarf. Honor is the only thing that matters to a person. I still hear her screams, she was my favorite daughter.

    Of course, we can say that these are all special cases, and there are enough crazy people in any country. But activists of women's organizations in the Middle East have calculated that at least 20,000 women become victims of "honor killings" every year. Is it then possible to talk about some kind of evolution of the modern world?

    The right to cripple, mutilate with impunity, only suspected of treason, as well as in the event of a divorce, or if a woman suddenly decides to learn (otherwise she can become very smart), the men of Pakistan and Afghanistan have such a right. In general, breathe deeply if you decide to read the entire material.

    Nicholas Kristof, a New York Times columnist who traveled to Pakistan last year to cover the issue, writes in his piece:

    “I have investigated cases of acid attacks commonly used to intimidate and oppress women and girls across Asia from Afghanistan to Cambodia (men are almost never subjected to this). Since women are practically worthless in this part of the world, those who attack them are rarely prosecuted, and the sale of acid is usually not controlled in any way. This kind of terror is gradually becoming commonplace among them and is perceived by the broad masses as part of the regional “background noise”.
    Bangladesh has placed controls on the distribution of acids to limit such attacks, but in Asia it is still very easy to walk into a store and buy sulfuric or hydrochloric acid that can destroy a human face. Acid attacks and wife burning are common in this part of Asia because the victims are the most disenfranchised, voiceless members of society - women. As a first step in getting the world to at least take notice, these women need to be given the right to speak.

    Since 1994, a Pakistani activist who founded the Progressive Women's Association (PWA) to help victims has "documented 7,800 cases of women being deliberately burned, scalded with boiling water, or doused with acid in the Islamabad region alone." Only in 2% of these cases was anyone punished.

    This month, Afghans on motorcycles threw acid at a group of girls who dared to go to school. One of them, 17-year-old Shamsia, while in a hospital bed, told reporters: “I will go to school even if they kill me. I want to convey to the enemies that even if they do this a hundred times, I will still continue to learn.”

    When I met Naima Azar, a Pakistani woman who used to be an attractive, confident real estate agent, she was wearing a black veil covering her head and face. When she took it off, she made me shudder. The acid burned clean her left ear and most of her right. She blinded her, burned her eye sockets and the entire surface of her face to the bone. Six grafts of skin and flesh from her legs helped a little, but she still can't close the remnants of her eyes or her mouth; she cannot eat in public because the food humiliatingly falls out during chewing.

    "Look at Naima, she has lost her eyes." Shanaz Bukhari, a Pakistani PWA activist, sighs as her eyes well up in tears. “I cry every time she comes to me.”

    Ms. Azar was earning well and supporting her three young children when she decided to divorce her husband, Jamshid Azar, a fruit merchant who rarely brought home any money. He agreed to dissolve the marriage because he himself had his eye on another woman. However, according to her and her son, after the divorce was completed, Jamshid came to say goodbye to the children, and then took out a bottle and splashed acid in his ex-wife's face.

    “I screamed,” Ms Azar recalls. “Flesh fell from my cheeks. The bones of my face were exposed and all my skin was gone."

    Neighbors came running, but all they saw was a panicked, blinded woman with a smoking face, screaming and thrashing against the walls. No one grabbed Jamshid, and he simply disappeared. Ms. Azar survived thanks to the support of her friends and PWA. Shanaz Bukhari is raising funds for a lawyer to get the police to find and arrest Jamshid, and for an eye surgery that - with a skilled surgeon - could possibly restore sight in one eye.

    For the past two years, Senators Joe Biden and Richard Lugar have helped support and enforce the International Violence Against Women Act, a law that allows a number of measures to be taken to highlight such atrocities and force foreign nations to take notice. This helps to break the silence and the culture of impunity surrounding this type of terrorism.

    But the scariest part of my meeting with Mrs. Azar, apart from the sight of her face, was the words of her 12-year-old son, Asan Shah, who accompanies her everywhere. He said that in one of the houses where they stayed some time after the attack, a man upstairs beat his wife every day and threatened: “Did you see the woman downstairs who was burned by her husband? I will do the same to you!”


    Irum Salid, 30, photographed July 24, 2008 in her office at Urdu University Islamabad, Pakistan. Her face, back and shoulders were burned 12 years ago when the guy she refused to marry threw acid at her in the middle of the street. She has undergone 25 plastic surgeries to remove scars.


    Shamim Akhter, 18, photograph taken July 10, 2008. Three years ago, she was raped by three men and then poured with acid. She underwent 10 plastic surgeries in an attempt to get rid of her scars.


    Najaf Sultana, aged 16, photographed on July 9, 2008. At the age of five, while sleeping, she was burned by her own father, apparently due to the fact that he did not want to have another female child in the family. As a result, Najaf became blind and, after being abandoned by both parents, lives with relatives. She had 15 plastic surgeries.


    Shenaz Usman, 36, photographed October 26, 2008. Shenaz was attacked with acid by a relative during a family dispute 5 years ago. She went through 10 plastic surgeries.


    Shanaz Bibi, 35, photographed October 26, 2008. 10 years ago, Shanaz also doused one of his relatives with acid. She did not do any plastic surgery.


    Kanwal Kayum, aged 26, photographed October 26, 2008. A year ago, a boyfriend poured acid on her in retaliation for refusing to marry. Never had plastic surgery.


    Munira Asef, 23, photographed October 26, 2008. Five years ago, Munira was doused with acid for the same reason. 7 operations.


    Bushra Shari, 39, photographed July 11, 2008. Bushra was attacked with acid by her own husband five years ago because she wanted to divorce him. She had 25 plastic surgeries.


    Memuna Khan, 21, photographed December 19, 2008. Memuna was doused by a group of young people who used acid to resolve a conflict between their family and Memuna's. She went through 21 surgeries.


    Zainab Bibi, aged 17, photographed on December 24, 2008. The reason is the same - 5 years ago she refused to get married, and the groom threw acid at her. She went through several plastic surgeries.


    Nailya Farhat, 19 years old, photo taken on December 24, 2008. The story is exactly the same.

    Saira Liaquat, 26, photographed July 9, 2008. At the age of 15, she was married off to a relative who subsequently threw acid on her after unsuccessful attempts to persuade her to live together, despite the fact that the families agreed that she would move in with him only after graduation. Saira has undergone 15 plastic surgeries.

    Muslims kill their women like cattle!!! WHERE ARE THE WESTERN FEMINISTS

    "Honor" killings of women in Islamic countries are a mass phenomenon. One of the latest taboo topics is the murder of at least 20,000 women in the Muslim countries of the Middle East a year, in the name of so-called "honor". Moreover, the problem is not limited to the territory of the Middle East: the infection is rapidly spreading around the world. For the sake of saving the “honor of the family”, women are cut off their heads, burned, stoned, cut, electrocuted, strangled and buried alive. And these shameful and barbaric practices flourish in the 21st century in Islamic countries. Women's activists in the Middle East and Southwest Asia believe that there are at least 20,000 such murders per year. The journalists of "The Independent" spent 10 months investigating in Jordan, Pakistan, Egypt, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank of Jordan. As a result, horrific details emerged.

    The observance of "honor" (or ird) for families, communities and tribes in the East goes beyond religion and human charity. Women's organizations, human rights organizations, Amnesty International testify that the killing of girls and women for "insulting the honor of the family" is growing year by year. Most of the crimes are committed by Iraqi Kurds, Palestinians in Jordan, as well as in Pakistan and Turkey. But perhaps freedom of speech in these countries paints a false picture compared to countries where honor killings are shrouded in a veil of silence. For example, Egypt, whose authorities insincerely claim that "honour" killings do not happen there, and other countries of the Persian Gulf. Honor killings have also long since spread to the UK, Belgium, Russia, Canada and many other countries. Law enforcement agencies and courts in many countries in the Middle East are accommodating, reducing or eliminating prison sentences for murders of women by relatives, and often classify them as suicides in order to avoid prosecution.

    It is difficult to remain calm at a time when cases are becoming known of men raping their own daughters and then, when they become pregnant, kill them for the honor of the family.

    So, the father and grandfather of 16-year-old Turkish woman Medine Mehmi in the province of Adiyaman buried her alive in the ground for friendship with the guys. Her body was found 40 days later, in a sitting position with her hands tied.

    13-year-old Aisha Ibrahim Duhulow was buried up to her neck in Somalia in 2008 in front of a crowd of thousands. 50 men threw stones at her allegedly "for adultery." After 10 minutes, they dug her up, found that she was still alive, and returned her to the pit to be stoned again. What is her crime? It turned out that the poor girl was raped by THREE men, and her relatives, with fatal consequences, decided to report this to the leaders of the Al-Shabab armed group that controls the area.

    An Islamic "judge" in Somalia sentenced a woman to be stoned to death for treason, while her lover received 100 blows with a cane. In Pakistan, near Daharka, the body of a woman was found in an irrigation ditch, who was killed by relatives "out of honor" at the moment when she gave birth to her second child. Before she was hacked to death with an ax, her ears and lips were cut off. On a pile of her clothes lay the corpse of her first baby. The body of another newborn remained in the uterus, but the head was already sticking out. A Muslim cleric refused to perform a funeral ceremony for "a cursed woman and her illegitimate children."

    The details of these murders are so terrible, and there are so many women killed, that the story of each can turn horrors into banal everyday life. Thus, a certain Munawar Gul shot and killed his 20-year-old sister named Saanga in northwestern Pakistan in a place with a young man who, as the killer-brother suspected, his sister could have an affair.

    In August 2008, five women were brutally murdered by their fellow tribesmen for "crimes of honor" in Balochistan for choosing their own husbands. Three of Hameeda, Raheema and Fauzia were just teenagers. But they were severely beaten, shot, half-dead thrown into a ditch and thrown with stones and earth. When two elderly women, aged 38 and 45, protested against this, they suffered the same fate. Following the assassination, Pakistani MP Israrullah Zehri said such killings are centuries old and he will defend them.

    In December 2003, a 23-year-old woman named Afsheen in Multan was killed by her father after running away with a man named Hassan from a foreign and hostile tribe after a divorce. Her parents and relatives are educated intellectuals: civil servants, engineers and lawyers. “I gave her sleeping pills in tea and then strangled her with a scarf,” the father admitted. He told the police: "Honor is the only thing that is important for a person. I can still hear her screams, she was my beloved daughter ..." Before that, when her family found her with a lover in another city, she was falsely promised that she would not will suffer if he returns home.

    Zakir Hussain Shah slit his 18-year-old daughter's throat in Bara Kau in June 2002 because she "disgraced" his family.

    Unthinkable, but in Islamic countries the rape of women is used as a punishment! In the village of Mirwala in Punjab, in 2002, a tribal court ruled that an 11-year-old (!) boy from the Gujar tribe, by his walk with a 30-year-old woman from the Mastoi tribe, dishonored her tribe, and, therefore, the boy's 18-year-old sister should be gang-raped . The raped girl was then forced to walk through the village naked. Only a week later, the police nevertheless registered the crime as ... a complaint.

    Very often, women are dealt with with acid. Independent media reported in 2001 the story of Fakhra Khar. Her husband Bilal Khar splashed acid on her face after she left him and returned to her mother's home in the red light district. The acid burned her hair, ears, chest, and caused her lips to coalesce. Her face looks like melted rubber.

    That same year, a 20-year-old woman named Hafiza was shot dead with two shots by her brother Asadullah in front of a dozen police officers at the Quetta courthouse. She refused, according to tradition, to marry the older brother of her deceased husband. And she married someone else. The police, at the request of her relatives, found her, arrested her, and returned her home, where she was forced to testify that her husband had allegedly kidnapped her. And when she decided to testify in court that she was forced to slander her husband under pressure, her brother, having snatched a pistol from a policeman, killed her right in court.

    One of the most horrific and savage murders occurred in 1999 in the North Western Province of Pakistan. Mentally retarded 16-year-old girl Lal Jamilla Mandokhel was raped by a certain clerk. Her uncle filed a complaint with the police, but the elders decided to kill this girl to protect the honor of the tribe. She was shot like a dog in front of her relatives.

    Arbab Khatoon was raped by three men in Jacobabad, Pakistan. She filed a complaint with the police. Seven hours later, she was killed by relatives because she had become "a disgrace to the family."

    Ten years ago, the Pakistani Human Rights Commission reported that there were about 1,000 honor killings per year in Pakistan each year. In terms of the number of officially recorded female honor killings, Turkey ranks second after Pakistan. According to the police there, between 2000 and 2006, 480 women were killed: 20% of them aged 19 to 25 were killed in defense of "honor". According to other official information five years ago in secular Turkey, at least 200 girls and women are killed every year because of the outraged "honor" of the family, but this is clearly an underestimate. According to polls among Turkish Kurds, 37% of this people approve of honor killings.

    17-year-old Derya, who fell in love with a classmate, received up to 15 text messages a day from her uncle and brothers demanding that she commit suicide in order to wash away the "shame on her family." She tried unsuccessfully to kill herself several times and then took refuge in a shelter for women who are being abused.

    Murat Kara from the city of Dyabakir confessed in 2007 that 13 years earlier, on the orders of his mother and uncles, he had killed his sister for running away with her lover. Before the murder, the neighbors refused to talk to him, and the imam (!) said that if he did not kill his sister, he would oppose the will of Allah.

    In his book Women in the Hands of Tribal Customs, Turkish journalist Mehmet Farac pointed to the murder of five girls in the late 1990s in the province of Sanliurfa. Two of them, one was only 12 years old, had their throats slit in the square, the other two were crushed by a tractor, the fifth was shot by his younger brother. In the case mentioned, when a girl was killed, her brothers held her hands while a teenage cousin slit her throat.

    Murders of women of "honour" do not only happen among Kurds in Turkey. In 2001, a certain Sait Kina killed his daughter for not talking to boys on the street. He attacked her in the bathroom with an ax and a kitchen knife. When the police found her body, the girl's head was so mutilated that the relatives wrapped a scarf in order not to see it. The killer father told the police, "I have done my duty."

    In 2001, an Istanbul court changed the prison sentences of the three brothers from life to terms ranging from 4 to 12 years. They threw their sister off the bridge, accusing her of prostitution. The court concluded that she "provoked" the murder by her behavior.

    For centuries, virginity testing before marriage has been the norm in the villages of Turkey. In 1998, even after five girls attempted to commit suicide before said check-up, the Turkish Ministry of Family Affairs deliberately authorized gynecological check-ups for girls in orphanages by decree. According to Aso Kamal from Doaa Network Against Violence, from 1991 to 2007, only in three Kurdish provinces of Iraq, 12.5 thousand women were killed "out of honor".

    Many women are ordered by relatives to commit suicide by dousing themselves with burning oil. At Sulimaniya Hospital in 2007, surgeons treated many women for horrific burns that could never have been caused by cooking "accidents", as the women "claimed". One of Sirwa Hassan's patients, a Kurdish mother of three, died from a burn on 86% of her body surface.

    In 2008, a medical officer at Sulimaniya Hospital told AFP that in May alone, 14 young women were killed for the "honour" of a crime in 10 days. Despite the fact that in 2000 "honor killings" did not provide leniency, the situation in Iraq did not improve.

    In Tikrit, a young woman who was imprisoned in the local prison wrote to her brother that she had been raped by a guard and had become pregnant. Her brother came to visit her and shot her under the pretense of protecting the honor of the family. As shown by a DNA study of the fetus of a murdered pregnant woman, the rapist turned out to be a jailer with the rank of lieutenant-colonel of the police. This rapist paid off (sharia allows it) from the family of the murdered woman and escaped punishment.

    In Basra, in 2008, the police found that 15 women and girls a month were killed for wearing clothes that did not comply with Muslim traditions.

    Rand Abdel-Qader - An Iraqi 17-year-old girl was stabbed to death by her father for falling in love with a British soldier in Basra.

    19-year-old Shawbo Ali Rauf was shot by relatives after finding an unfamiliar number on her mobile phone.

    Du "a Khalil Aswad, at the age of 17, was stoned to death in Nineveh (Iraq) by a crowd of 2,000 people for falling in love with a foreigner.

    In Jordan in 1999, a certain Sirhan boasted without regret about how he killed his sister named Suzanne. Three days after the 16-year-old girl told him and the police that she had been raped, her brother shot her four times in the head. "She made a mistake, even if it was against her will," he said. "In any case, it's better for one person to die than for the whole family to die of shame."

    In 2001, a 22-year-old Jordanian man strangled his 17-year-old married sister (it was the 12th murder of this kind in seven months). He suspected that she was cheating on her husband, who lived in Saudi Arabia.

    In 2002, Souad Mahmoud was also strangled by his own brother. She was forced to marry her lover because she was pregnant. And when the family found out that she was pregnant before her marriage, they decided to execute her.

    In 2005, three Jordanians stabbed to death a 22-year-old married sister for having a lover. They did not touch the lover himself.

    Many Jordanian families are from Palestine. 9 months ago, a Palestinian stabbed his married sister to death for bad behavior, as he put it.

    In Jordan in 2008, the courts punished "honor killing" quite leniently. In March of that year, a court sentenced two people for killing close relatives "in a fit of rage" to just six months and three months in prison. In the first case, the husband found a man in his house and accused his wife of cheating. In the second case, a man shot a 29-year-old married sister because she went out of their house without the consent of her husband and talked on the phone with strangers.

    In 2009, in Jordan, a brother beat his pregnant sister to death after she returned to the family after an argument with her husband. The killer-brother was sure that she was in contact with other men.

    Three men in Amman stabbed their 40-year-old divorced sister to death for allegedly talking to her "lover" 15 times last year. In the same place, the father hacked to death with a sword a 22-year-old daughter who became pregnant out of wedlock.

    Human Rights Watch has long condemned the Palestinian Authority's police and judiciary for its near-total failure to protect women in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank from honor killings. In 2005, the older brother strangled his 17-year-old sister because she became pregnant, and moreover from her own father (!). Earlier, the girl reported her father to the police, but he was not even interrogated. At the same time, the father was calmly present at the murder of the girl.

    That same year, 20-year-old Yusra Azzami was shot to death by Hamas (Islamic Resistance Movement) militants, allegedly for "immoral behaviour." Then Hamas, of course, tried to apologize and even called the victim a martyr. However, after the victory of Hamasn in the Palestinian elections in the Gaza Strip, the father chained his daughter for finding her cell phone and suspected that she was talking to a strange man. Soon he was released...

    Even in liberal Lebanon there are honor killings. Mona Kaham, 31, had her throat slit by her father after learning she was pregnant by her cousin. He went to the police station in the southern suburbs of Beirut with a knife in his hand and said: "My conscience is clear. I killed to cleanse my honour."

    Among the latest cases is the death of 17-year-old Lubna, who lived in Homs. because she fled to her sister's house after refusing to marry the man her family chose for her. They unfairly believed that she was not a virgin. Tribal feuds often provoke "honour" killings in Iran and Afghanistan.

    In Iran, the governor of the predominantly Arab province of Khuzestan said in 2003 that 45 young women under the age of 20 had been killed in two months. None of the killers were punished. All of them were killed either because they refused to marry, or because of inappropriate clothing, or because of suspicion of having connections and conversations with strange men outside the family.

    Through the dark veil from Afghanistan, sometimes monstrous executions of girls and women in the villages come. When 19-year-old Siddiqa and her 25-year-old fiancé Khayyam decided to marry against the wishes of their families in Kunduz province, they were stoned to death in a bazaar in the presence of members of both families by a Taliban court. A week earlier, a pregnant widow named Bibi Sanubar was flogged 100 times and then shot in the head by a Taliban commander. In April of that year, Taliban militants killed a young couple because the woman had married while engaged to another man. And how many more hundreds and thousands of such stories are hidden in the darkness of the Afghan war and unrest?

    Honor crimes are also committed in the UK: Pakistani Mohamed Riaz, for example, burned his wife and four children alive for their Western habits, and died shortly thereafter of the burns himself. Scotland Yard has long recognized that more than 100 deaths, some more than 10 years old, that bear similarities to "honour" killings need to be reviewed.

    Below are just a few murders and a few names, honor killings victims, wild family customs, not knowing mercy, which the laws of the countries where it occurs indulges.

    Surjit Athwal. Murdered in 1998 by her husband on a trip to Indian Punjab without her husband's permission and demanding a divorce due to an unhappy marriage.

    Du "a Khalil Aswad. At the age of 17, she was stoned to death in Nineveh (Iraq) by a crowd of 2,000 people for falling in love with a foreigner.

    Rand Abdel Qader. An Iraqi 17-year-old girl was stabbed to death by her father for falling in love with a British soldier in Basra.

    Fakhra Khar. In 2001 in Karachi, her husband poured acid on her face after she left him and returned to her mother's home in the red light district.

    Mukhtaran Bibi. This 18-year-old girl was raped by four men in Punjab in 2002, while other men, about a hundred people stood nearby, laughing and clapping their hands at this horrendous act of gang rape.

    Heshu Yones. A 16-year-old girl was beaten to death by her father Abdullah in west London in 2002 because he did not approve of her relationship with a Christian boy.

    Tasleem Solangi. In a Pakistani village, a 17-year-old girl was falsely accused of immorality, set on by dogs, and then shot to death.

    Shawbo Ali Rauf. During a picnic in Dokan, Iraq, the relatives of this 19-year-old girl shot her 7 times for finding an unfamiliar number on her phone.

    Tulay Goren. A 15-year-old Kurdish girl was killed by her father in North London, her father because she wanted to marry a man, against her father's wishes.

    Banaz Mahmod Babakir Agha. This 20-year-old girl was killed by her father and uncle in 2007 because she fell in love with a person they did not like.

    Ayesha Baloch in 2006 in Pakistan was accused by her husband of sexual relations before marriage with another man. He cut off her lips and nose

    All this is happening in those countries where the most "kind" religion Islam has been dominating for centuries! In these countries, atheists-theomachists who forbid Islam have never come to power for 70 years ... In real, primordial Islam, a woman is a humiliated and powerless creature!

    - "How to beat your wife in Islam."

    - "Counsels of modern theologians and the last sermon of Muhammad".

    The "honour" killings of women are not an isolated occurrence of rare scumbags. This is a ubiquitous phenomenon, against which the Islamic clergy not only do not fight, but in every possible way approve of this! It also becomes clear what is the secret of the "highly moral behavior" of the behavior of Muslims, which is due not to the free choice of piety, but to the terrible atrocities of savage Muslims in relation to those who have sinned.

    But what's worse is that all this, especially male "piety", is a terrible hypocrisy in Islamic countries. Firstly, because women receive the most terrible punishments, and in most cases, male rapists, adulterers and murderers go unpunished. Secondly, by condemning women, they (savage Muslims) commit even greater fornications.

    Recall that the leader in the killing of the "honor" of women is Pakistan. So, in 2010, it turned out that in terms of the number of search queries related to pornography, child pornography and sexual perversions, the world leader is... Pakistan! Such unexpected data is provided by the American television channel Fox News, citing data from Google Trends and Google Insights analytical services. Pakistan is the leader in the number of such searches in Google. The fact that "shameful talk" - sex with horses (leadership in this request has been held by Pakistan since 2004), sex with donkeys (primacy since 2007), as well as just "rape photos", abominations with children and animals, and especially sex with dogs, pigs and donkeys.

    Read, Muslims, the words of the Son of God and the only Savior of men - the Lord Jesus Christ: "Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inside they are ravenous wolves. figs? So every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire" (Matthew .7:15-19).

    It happens that in Russia and in Europe terrible atrocities are committed against women. But this is done by people without faith and morality. In Islamic countries, brutal "honour" killings are committed by people who sincerely consider themselves real Muslims and under the approval of the Islamic clergy! However, even among murderers devoid of any morality in Russia, the described wild, unimaginable atrocities are not found that are committed by "orthodox" in Islamic countries and, moreover, with impunity! If Russia were not an Orthodox country, where the majority of the inhabitants are Christians, where the laws are based on Christian morality, and not on the pagan satanic Sharia, then all these barbaric customs and the killing of women were in full measure among our Muslim peoples. There is no doubt that their Arab Bedouin brothers in faith from the East, from the "heart of Islam" would certainly have taught them this...

    The Terrible Punishments of the Women of the East - Morena


    Those offenses for which our harlot will not suffer any punishment are often punished in the East by death. Sharia law is inhumanly harsh. There are 9 reasons that are the reason for killing a woman. You can’t even imagine what you can be so severely punished for ...

    Sight. In a book by Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousuzfai, there is such a story. The family poisoned a young girl ... for the hot, indiscreet look that she gave to the guy she liked at the well. It's good that in our courts "indecent" views are not evidence!

    Studies. This same Malala herself became a victim of the radical Taliban movement. The girl was shot in the head just because she wanted to go to school! After all, the Taliban believe that education only spoils women. Fortunately, the girl was saved. For her courage she received Nobel Prize peace.

    Dancing. Two sisters and a mother were executed by Pakistani militants for dancing in the rain, filmed. Such behavior, in their opinion, violated Sharia norms. The women were “ordered” by their own relative, who considered that by such behavior they dishonored the family. Similarly punished for stormy dances at weddings. The decision is made by the elders.

    Give birth to a girl. It’s hard for us to imagine this, but it can also be a reason for execution. In 2013, 56 women were killed for this terrible act.

    Marriage for love. In Pakistan, so-called "honor killings" are actively practiced. They are used to cleanse the family from the shame that the harlot has brought upon her with her rash behavior. After all, the independent choice of a spouse is regarded precisely as fornication.

    High position on the social ladder. For this, the first woman was killed - the chairman of the government of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto. Different groups claimed responsibility for her murder, and the reasons put forward different. But there is only one moral - women in a country with Sharia law are not allowed to climb high.

    Vaccinations. You can safely get a bullet for a good cause. For example, for vaccinations against polio. A female doctor was mortally wounded by militants allegedly because she wanted to "make Pashtun children impotent".

    Treason. This is one of the worst crimes a woman can commit. The offender will be stoned to death by her own family, the best she can hope for. An obstacle to this is neither pregnancy nor even childbirth. Four witnesses are needed to prove treason. Here you smiled at this man, here you looked at him with lust. Your father and your children will be the first to throw a stone at you.

    Religious beliefs. There can be nothing worse than betrayal. Unless you burn the Quran. Or to at least cast a shadow of suspicion on the woman. A case in Afghanistan thundered all over the world, when an angry mob beat the unfortunate woman and burned her body. Although the Koran itself, as it turned out later, was not burned by anyone, but some other books were burned. However, who cares.

    How do you like the laws? Are you afraid that they will come to us?

    Sexual genocide that Muslims committed to themselves

    The Islamic genocide kills more women a year than Palestinians from the two intifadas and Operation Cast Lead combined.

    The left-wing British newspaper Independent and even more left-wing journalist Robert Fisk, a well-known hater of Israel and America, published a large article on the so-called "honor killings" in the Muslim world.

    Honor killings are committed by the next of kin of young women who have entered into an unsanctioned love affair with a family, clan, or tribe. They are sometimes performed by Christians and Hindus, but are most characteristic of Muslim society, since its main sacred text - the Koran - is a crystallization of the customs and myths of the Bedouin tribes of the early 7th century.

    Fisk is revisiting the 5,000-a-year "honour killings" figure traditionally cited in UN reports on the status of women. According to him, the number of such cases is at least 20 thousand a year. This is more than the number of Palestinians killed during the first and second intifadas and Operation Cast Lead combined.

    "Gender genocide" allows numerous feminist organizations to take a slightly different look at Palestinian society and the Palestinian problem, arranging anti-Isrian boycotts and glorifying such "martyrs of the world" as Mohammed al-Dura or Richelle Korri.

    It was useful for them to read, if not the entire article by Fisk, then at least some excerpts from it. For example, this one: "In 2005, a 17-year-old girl in Gaza was killed by her brother. Her crime was that she became pregnant from her own father. The father was present at the time of the murder. The victim had previously reported the incident to the police, but she did nothing" .

    Fisk gives about 20 more chilling examples – women are beheaded, burned alive, stoned, electrocuted, buried alive. An Iraqi mother, finding an unfamiliar number in her daughter's cell phone memory, slit her throat. An Azerbaijani father whose daughter dishonored him by wearing a miniskirt in St. Petersburg has hired assassins. A 13-year-old girl in Somalia was raped by three men. She decided to report this to a religious Islamist court. What the court did: He ordered to dig a hole, buried the unfortunate woman up to her throat in it and stoned her to death in front of the forcibly driven residents of her village.

    Jonathan Kay, commenting on Fisk's new campaign in the Canadian National Post, writes: "How unfortunate for all these women and girls - they were not killed by Jews - then cities in the capitals of the Islamic world would be named after them, as they are named after Muhammad al-Dur "Islamic conspiracy theorists love to imagine Jews planning to rape and kill their women. It seems to me that Muslims are making great progress in this area without any help from infidels."

    "Honor" killings of women in Islamic countries as a mass phenomenon

    One of the latest taboo topics is the murder of at least 20,000 women in the Muslim countries of the Middle East a year in the name of so-called "honor". Moreover, the problem is not limited to the territory of the Middle East: the infection is rapidly spreading around the world.

    For the sake of saving the “honor of the family”, women are beheaded, burned, stoned, cut, electrocuted, strangled and buried alive - these shameful and barbaric customs flourish in the 21st century in Islamic countries. Women's activists in the Middle East and Southwest Asia estimate that there are at least 20,000 such murders a year.

    Most of the crimes are committed by Iraqi Kurds, Palestinians in Jordan, as well as in Pakistan and Turkey. But perhaps freedom of speech in these countries paints a false picture compared to countries where honor killings are shrouded in a veil of silence. For example, Egypt, whose authorities insincerely claim that "honour" killings do not happen there, and other countries of the Persian Gulf.

    Honor killings have also long since spread to the UK, Belgium, Russia, Canada and many other countries. Law enforcement agencies and courts in many countries in the Middle East are accommodating, reducing or eliminating prison sentences for murders of women by relatives, and often classify them as suicides in order to avoid prosecution.

    It is difficult to remain calm when cases become known of men raping their own daughters, and then, when they became pregnant, they killed them for the honor of the family. The father and grandfather of 16-year-old Turkish woman Medine Mehmi in the province of Adiyaman buried her alive in the ground for her friendship with the guys. Her body was found 40 days later, in a sitting position with her hands tied.

    13-year-old Aisha Ibrahim Duhulow was buried up to her neck in Somalia in 2008 in front of a crowd of thousands. 50 men threw stones at her "for adultery". After 10 minutes, they dug her up, found that she was still alive, and returned her to the pit to be stoned again. What is her crime? She was raped by three men, and her relatives, with fatal consequences, decided to report this to the leaders of the al-Shabaab armed group that governs the area.

    An Islamic "judge" in Somalia has sentenced a woman to be stoned to death for treason, while her lover received 100 lashes with a cane.

    In Pakistan, near Daharka, the body of a woman was found in an irrigation ditch, who was killed by relatives "out of honor" at the moment when she gave birth to her second child. Before she was hacked to death with an ax, her ears and lips were cut off. On a pile of her clothes lay the corpse of her first baby, the body of the newborn remained in the womb, but the head was already sticking out. A Muslim cleric refused to perform a funeral ceremony for "a cursed woman and her illegitimate children."

    The details of these murders are so terrible, and there are so many women killed, that the story of each can turn horrors into banal everyday life.

    Last March, a Munawar Gul shot and killed his 20-year-old sister named Saanga in northwest Pakistan at a location with a young man whom the killer-brother suspected was having an affair with his sister.

    In August 2008, five women were brutally murdered by their fellow tribesmen for "crimes of honor" in Balochistan for choosing their own husbands. Three of Hameeda, Raheema and Fauzia were teenagers. They were severely beaten, shot, half-dead thrown into a ditch and pelted with stones and earth. When two elderly women, aged 38 and 45, protested against this, they suffered the same fate. Following the assassination, Pakistani MP Israrullah Zehri said such killings are centuries old and he will defend them.

    In December 2003, a 23-year-old woman named Afsheen in Multan was killed by her father after running away with a man named Hassan from a foreign and hostile tribe after a divorce. Her parents and relatives are educated intellectuals: civil servants, engineers and lawyers. “I gave her sleeping pills in tea and then strangled her with a scarf,” the father admitted. He told the police: "Honor is the only thing that is important for a person. I can still hear her screams, she was my beloved daughter ..." Before that, when her family found her with a lover in another city, she was falsely promised that she would not will suffer if he returns home.

    Zakir Hussain Shah slit his 18-year-old daughter's throat in Bara Kau in June 2002 because she "disgraced" his family.

    Unthinkable, but in Islamic countries the rape of women is used as a punishment! In the village of Mirwala in Punjab, in 2002, a tribal court ruled that an 11-year-old (!) boy from the Gujar tribe, by his walk with a 30-year-old woman from the Mastoi tribe, dishonored her tribe, and, therefore, the boy's 18-year-old sister should be gang-raped . The raped girl was then forced to walk through the village naked. Only a week later, the police nevertheless registered the crime as ... a complaint.

    Very often, women are dealt with with acid.

    Independent media reported in 2001 the story of Fakhra Khar. Her husband Bilal Khar poured acid on her face after she left him and returned to her mother's home in the red light district. The acid burned her hair, ears, chest, and caused her lips to coalesce. Her face looks like melted rubber.

    One of the most horrific and savage murders occurred in 1999 in the North Western Province of Pakistan. Mentally retarded 16-year-old girl Lal Jamilla Mandokhel was raped by a certain clerk. Her uncle filed a complaint with the police, but the elders decided to kill this girl to protect the honor of the tribe. She was shot like a dog in front of her relatives.

    Arbab Khatoon was raped by three men in Jacobabad, Pakistan. She filed a complaint with the police. Seven hours later, she was killed by relatives because she had become "a disgrace to the family."

    Ten years ago, the Pakistani Human Rights Commission reported that there were about 1,000 honor killings per year in Pakistan then.

    In terms of the number of officially recorded female honor killings, Turkey ranks second after Pakistan.

    According to the police there, between 2000 and 2006, 480 women were killed: 20% of them aged 19-25 were killed in defense of "honor". According to other official information five years ago in secular Turkey, at least 200 girls and women are killed every year because of the outraged "honor" of the family, but this is clearly an underestimate.

    According to polls among Turkish Kurds, 37% of this people approve of honor killings.

    17-year-old Derya, who fell in love with a classmate, received up to 15 text messages a day from her uncle and brothers demanding that she commit suicide in order to wash away the "shame on her family." She tried unsuccessfully to kill herself several times and then took refuge in a shelter for women who are being abused.

    Murat Kara from the city of Dyabakir confessed in 2007 that 13 years earlier, on the orders of his mother and uncles, he had killed his sister for running away with her lover. Before the murder, the neighbors refused to talk to him, and the imam (!) Said that if he did not kill his sister, he would oppose the will of Allah.

    In his book Women in the Hands of Tribal Customs, Turkish journalist Mehmet Farac pointed to the murder of five girls in the late 1990s in the province of Sanliurfa. Two of them, one was only 12 years old, had their throats slit in the square, the other two were crushed by a tractor, the fifth was shot by his younger brother. In the case mentioned, when a girl was killed, her brothers held her hands while a teenage cousin slit her throat.

    Murders of women of "honour" do not only happen among Kurds in Turkey. In 2001, a certain Sait Kina killed his daughter for not talking to boys on the street. He attacked her in the bathroom with an ax and a kitchen knife. When the police found her body, the girl's head was so mutilated that the relatives wrapped it in a scarf so as not to see it. The killer father told the police, "I have done my duty."

    In 2001, an Istanbul court changed the prison sentences of the three brothers from life to terms ranging from 4 to 12 years. They threw their sister off the bridge, accusing her of prostitution. The court concluded that she "provoked" the murder by her behavior.

    For centuries, virginity testing before marriage has been the norm in the villages of Turkey. In 1998, even after five girls tried to commit suicide before said check-up, the Turkish Ministry of Family Affairs deliberately approved by decree the conduct of gynecological check-ups for girls in orphanages.

    According to Aso Kamal from Doaa Network Against Violence, from 1991 to 2007, only in three Kurdish provinces of Iraq, 12.5 thousand women were killed "out of honor". Many women are ordered by relatives to commit suicide by dousing themselves with burning oil. At Sulimaniya Hospital in 2007, surgeons treated many women for horrific burns that could never have been caused by cooking "accidents", as the women "claimed". One of the patients of Sirwa Hassan, a Kurdish mother of three, died from a burn of 86% of her body surface.

    In 2008, a medical officer at Sulimaniya Hospital told AFP that in May alone, 14 young women were killed for the "honour" of a crime in 10 days.

    Despite the fact that in 2000 "honour killing" did not result in mitigation of punishment, the situation in Iraq did not improve.

    In Tikrit, a young woman who was imprisoned in the local prison wrote to her brother that she had been raped by a guard and had become pregnant. Her brother came to visit her and shot her under the pretense of protecting the honor of the family.

    As shown by a DNA study of the fetus of a murdered pregnant woman, the rapist turned out to be a jailer with the rank of lieutenant-colonel of the police. This rapist paid off (sharia allows it) from the family of the murdered woman and escaped punishment.

    In Basra, in 2008, the police found that 15 women and girls a month were killed for wearing clothes that did not comply with Muslim traditions.

    Rand Abdel-Qader - An Iraqi 17-year-old girl was stabbed to death by her father for falling in love with a British soldier in Basra. 19-year-old Shawbo Ali Rauf was shot by relatives after finding an unfamiliar number on her mobile phone. Du "a Khalil Aswad at the age of 17 was stoned to death in Nineveh (Iraq) by a crowd of 2000 people for being loved by a foreigner.

    In Jordan in 1999, a certain Sirhan boasted without regret about how he killed his sister named Suzanne. Three days after the 16-year-old girl told him and the police that she had been raped, her brother shot her four times in the head. "She made a mistake, even if it was against her will," he said. "In any case, it's better for one person to die than for the whole family to die of shame."

    In 2001, a 22-year-old Jordanian man strangled his 17-year-old married sister (it was the 12th murder of this kind in seven months). He suspected that she was cheating on her husband, who lived in Saudi Arabia.

    In 2002, Souad Mahmoud was also strangled by his own brother. She was forced to marry her lover because she was pregnant. And when the family found out that she was pregnant before her marriage, they decided to execute her.

    In 2005, three Jordanians stabbed to death a 22-year-old married sister for having a lover. They did not touch the lover himself. Many Jordanian families are from Palestine. 9 months ago, a Palestinian stabbed his married sister to death for bad behavior, as he put it.

    In Jordan in 2008, the courts punished "honor killing" quite leniently. In March of this year, a court sentenced two people for killing close relatives "in a fit of rage" to just six months and three months in prison. In the first case, the husband found a man in his house and accused his wife of cheating. In the second case, a man shot a 29-year-old married sister because she went out of their house without the consent of her husband and talked on the phone with strangers.

    In 2009, in Jordan, a brother beat his pregnant sister to death after she returned to the family after an argument with her husband. The killer-brother was sure that she was in contact with other men.

    Three men in Amman stabbed their 40-year-old divorced sister to death for talking to her "lover" 15 times last year. In the same place, the father hacked to death with a sword a 22-year-old daughter who became pregnant out of wedlock.

    Human Rights Watch has long condemned the Palestinian Authority's police and judiciary for its near-total failure to protect women in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank from honor killings. In 2005, an older brother strangled his 17-year-old sister because she became pregnant from her own father. Earlier, the girl reported her father to the police, but he was not even interrogated. At the same time, her father calmly attended her murder.

    That same year, 20-year-old Yusra Azzami was shot dead by Hamas (Islamic Resistance Movement) gunmen for "immoral behavior." Hamas tried to apologize and even called the victim a martyr. However, last year, after the victory of Hamas in the Palestinian elections in the Gaza Strip. A father chained his daughter for finding her cell phone and suspected that she was talking to a strange man. Was soon released...

    Even in liberal Lebanon there are honor killings. Mona Kaham, 31, had her father slit her throat after learning that she was pregnant by her cousin. He went to the police station in the southern suburbs of Beirut with a knife in his hand and said: "My conscience is clear. I killed to cleanse my honour." It's good that 90.7% of the Lebanese public is against "honour" killings. The remaining 10% who approve of this believe that such killings help to limit interfaith marriages.

    While in Syria, human rights activists demand tougher legislation against the killers of women, the state has raised the prison term for this reason to ... two years.

    Among the latest cases is the death of 17-year-old Lubna, who lived in Homs. because she fled to her sister's house after refusing to marry the man her family chose for her. They unfairly believed that she was not a virgin

    Tribal feuds often provoke "honour" killings in Iran and Afghanistan. In Iran, the governor of the predominantly Arab province of Khuzestan said in 2003 that 45 young women under the age of 20 had been killed in two months. None of the killers were punished. All of them were killed either because they refused to marry, or because of inappropriate clothing, or because of suspicion of having connections and conversations with strange men outside the family.

    In Chechnya, President Ramzan Kadyrov, chosen by the Russian federal authorities, is practically encouraging men to kill for "honor". When seven murdered women were found in Grozny with gunshot wounds to the head and chest, Kadyrov announced - without any evidence, but with obvious approval - that they were killed for their immoral lifestyle. Commenting on the report that a Chechen girl called the police to complain about her abusive father, he hinted that a man should be able to kill his daughter - they say, if he does not kill her, what kind of man he is, he will disgrace himself.

    Immigrant families sometimes bring the cruel traditions of their native villages to the West. In St. Petersburg, an Azerbaijani immigrant is accused of hiring hitmen to kill his daughter because she neglected national traditions and wore a miniskirt. Honor crimes are also committed in the UK: Pakistani Mohamed Riaz, for example, burned his wife and four children alive for their Western habits, and died shortly thereafter of the burns himself. Scotland Yard has long recognized that more than 100 deaths, some more than 10 years old, that bear similarities to "honour" killings need to be reviewed.

    And you still continue to believe that Islam is a religion of peace and mercy for sinners? Do you still think that Islam is capable of morally transforming people? And Sharia is the most just law? The article convincingly shows that killings of the "honor" of women are not an isolated phenomenon of rare scumbags - this is a widespread phenomenon, against which the Islamic clergy not only do not fight, but also approve of this in every possible way!

    It also becomes clear what is the secret of the "highly moral behavior" of the behavior of Muslims, which is due not to the free choice of piety, the terrible atrocities of Muslims in relation to those who have sinned.

    But what's worse is that all this, especially male "piety", is a terrible hypocrisy in Islamic countries. Firstly, because women receive the most terrible punishments, and in most cases, male rapists, adulterers and murderers go unpunished.

    Secondly, by condemning women, they (Muslims) commit even greater fornications. Let me remind you that the leader in the killing of the "honor" of women is Pakistan. So in 2010, it turned out that in terms of the number of search queries related to pornography, child pornography and sexual perversions, the world leader is... Pakistan. Such unexpected data is provided by the American television channel Fox News, citing data from Google Trends and Google Insights analytical services.

    "Christian girls are only for Muslim pleasure"

    Raymond Ibrahim
    • Recently in Iraq, 19 Yazidi girls were placed in iron cages and burned alive in front of a crowd of hundreds for refusing to copulate with jihadists.
    • “Women of religious minorities under IS [Islamic State] control are often sold multiple times from one jihadist to another.
    • After the militants get tired of raping and dishonoring one particular girl, they usually sell her to one of their fellow militants so that they can continue to rape and dishonor her for their own pleasure.

    Samuel Smith, Christian Post.

    • After the children were kidnapped by the Islamic State, the couple opened the door, where they found fragments of their daughters' bodies and a video of them being tortured and raped.
    • "Christian girls are considered a commodity to be used at leisure. It is a right to dishonor them. According to the mentality of the community, this is not a crime. Muslims see them as trophies."

    Local people, Pakistan.

    Islamic law, which is cruel in everything, is especially cruel to women. According to the Qur'an, men have "power" over women and can beat them if they are "disobedient" (4:34). According to Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, women are not as smart as men, and therefore two women are needed for the testimony of one man, and the population of hell consists of women who are like donkeys and dogs in their ability to distract a man from his prayer and thereby annul her.

    What then is the Islamic perception of women coming from "infidels"? At best, "they are for the pleasure of a Muslim," as one Muslim told a group of young Christian girls in Pakistan before torturing and killing them. In the Qur'an (4:24), non-Muslim women captured in jihad can be bought and sold as sex slaves for Muslim men, which is what the Islamic State does.

    Emily Fuentes, communications director at Open Doors, a human rights organization that advocates for persecuted Christians, said:

    “Unfortunately, more and more women are being targeted by [Muslim] terrorist groups. There is a lot of evidence for international level cases of women being kidnapped by radical extremist groups, raped, and forced to convert to Islam... Many of them are also sold on the open market. Such atrocities are happening not only in the Middle East, but also in Africa and many other places. In many of these countries, women are persecuted because they are considered second class citizens because of their gender. As minorities based on gender and faith, Christian women face double persecution. Although we do not have exact figures, we know that millions of women are being persecuted... In Muslim-majority countries, Christian women are systematically deprived of their freedom to live and denied basic human needs.” Christian women are cursed twice: for being tolerated as women and for being "infidel" non-Muslims. It becomes clear why, mainly, they are objects of Islamic mockery.

    By now, the plight of non-Muslim women in the clutches of IS has become well known. Since the capture of Mosul in June 2014, the caliphate has executed no fewer than 250 captive non-Muslim girls (mostly Yezidis and Christians) for refusing to be sex slaves. Most recently, 19 Yazidi girls were placed in iron cages and burned alive in front of a crowd of hundreds for refusing to copulate with jihadists.

    According to a report that came out a day after Open Doors spoke about the plight of non-Muslim women:

    Women from religious minorities under IS rule are often sold multiple times from one jihadist to another. As soon as the militants get tired of raping and dishonoring one particular girl, they usually sell her to one of their militant buddies so that he can continue to rape and dishonor her for his own pleasure. One Yazidi girl on the run told how she was bought and sold to eight different jihadists... "We were put on public display [at sex slave markets]. Men came and inspected us like a commodity. It was like a car showroom... Women bought for cash - as little as $20, or exchanged for things like mobile phones, or given as gifts." She was raped by countless ISIS fighters at least three times a day for more than 16 months, forcing her to take birth control and abortion pills. She repeatedly attempted suicide to end the abuse. Her story is typical and for many other runaway non-Muslim girls.

    Other recent reports tell of "an 8-year-old girl who was also bought, sold and raped by eight gunmen over the course of 10 months"; about another "sex slave who set herself on fire to prevent rape"; about the spouses who, after their children were abducted by ISIS, opened the door and found a plastic bag with parts of their daughters' bodies and a video of torture and abuse against them; about Christian and Alawite women who were raped and killed by ISIS jihadists after their village was invaded.

    But such Islamic violence against women is hardly limited to groups like ISIS and Boko Haram, a Nigerian organization that also defines itself as exclusively Islamic and is notorious for kidnapping, enslaving, raping and killing Christian girls. Approximately 700 Christian and 300 Hindu girls are kidnapped, enslaved and raped in Pakistan every year. This is a very large number, considering that Christians and Hindus make up only one percent of the country's Muslim majority population.

    Just four days after Open Doors published its remarks about the plight of Christian women, two Muslims in Pakistan broke into a Christian woman's home while her husband was serving in the army. They tied her up and raped her, threatening to kill her two-year-old daughter if she resisted.

    In the words of this 30-year-old woman:

    "The men treated me like an animal, saying that I was a worthless Christian ... They said that all Christian women are whores, and that if I let anyone out, they will come back and repeat their orgy." Because she is also a woman and an infidel in a Muslim-majority country, the police and the law will do nothing for her.In the same week, five more Christian girls were kidnapped, converted to Islam, and forced into marriage with their captors.

    There are many other examples of rape and murder of Christian girls and sometimes Christian boys in Pakistan. After a 9-year-old Christian girl was raped by a Muslim man who bragged about having "provided the same service to other young Christian girls," the locals explained:

    "Such incidents happen frequently. Christian girls are considered a commodity to be used at leisure. It is a right to dishonor them. According to the [Muslim] mentality, it is not even a crime. Muslims consider them as trophies." A similar situation prevails in Egypt. In July 2012, US Congressman Chris Smith testified of "an escalation in abductions, forced conversions and forced marriages of Coptic Christian women and girls. Women were terrorized and then marginalized." The largely diplomatic late Coptic Pope Shenouda III, head of the Egyptian Christian community, emphasized this tendency as early as 1976: "There is a practice of converting Coptic girls to Islam and then marrying Muslims under terror." Between 2008 and 2013, there were about 600 cases of kidnapping, rape and forced conversion of Christian women in Egypt. The situation has only gotten worse, as the title of a 2012 report suggests: "Surge in Kidnapping and Forced Conversion of Christian Coptic Women in Egypt." If young women are sexual targets, older women are sexually despised: On May 20, a 70-year-old Christian woman in Egypt was stripped naked, spat upon and forced to march through the streets of Minya amid hooting, whistling and shouting "Allahu Akbar" ("Allah is the Greatest") angry mob of Muslims.

    Two days before the release of the Open Doors report, Muslims in Uganda beat and raped a 22-year-old Christian woman for accusing a mosque leader of killing her father for religious reasons. A month earlier, the 13-year-old daughter of a mother who left Islam and converted to Christianity was raped by local Muslims with the words:

    "This is your mother's second warning for cursing the Muslim faith." It should be noted that even in Europe, indigenous women suffer the most from the influx of Muslim migrants. Exponentially, an increasing number of sexual assaults and rapes are perpetrated according to the same logic that prevails in the Islamic State or Pakistan. According to a Muslim migrant in Germany who stalked, cursed and groped a woman: "All German women are for sex." And finally, an important point: although non-Muslim women are more often targeted than non-Muslim men for sexual reasons, this does not mean that they are lesser targets than men when it comes to non-sexual forms of Muslim persecution, such as attacks on " blasphemers" and "apostates". Chivalry is alien to Islam; when it comes to terror, to put infidels in their place. The religion of Muhammad is strictly egalitarian. In Pakistan, for example, the most famous case of blasphemy involved a Christian woman named Asia Bibi, who has been on death row since 2009; a Christian couple who were accused of desecrating the Quran, husband and wife were burned alive. Later reports surfaced around the same time that Open Doors reported on the plight of Christian women:

    • Indonesia: In what has been described as an "unprecedented application of sharia to a non-Muslim woman," a 60-year-old Christian woman was flogged in public with 30 lashes for selling alcohol.
    • Islamic State: A Christian woman was executed by Islamic militants for refusing to deny her faith in Christ. ISIS also threatened a group of Dominican nuns, demanding that they either convert to Islam or pay tribute - jizya (based on Qur'an 9:29).
    "The elderly sisters [ran away and] suffered heart attacks and heart failure from the stress of the mass exodus. Over the past 18 months, 23 of them have died, sometimes up to three deaths a week. "They died of a ruptured heart," she said. Hood's sister.
    • Uganda: A Muslim man strangled his wife to death for leaving Islam and converting to Christianity. Another Muslim man beat and threatened to kill his wife, shouting "Allahu Akbar" for her conversion to Christianity.
    It is rare to hear of a Muslim wife killing her apostate husband because of the lack of empowerment of women in the Muslim world.

    The Pakistani parliament is rushing to draft a new law to punish honor killings. This was demanded from the government by an outraged liberal public after one of the country's famous fashion models was strangled by her own brother for posting bold photos on social networks. However, the question of other crimes of honor remains open.

    Every year, thousands of women in Islamic countries are subjected to physical torture by their husbands, parents and other relatives - with the tacit approval of neighbors and other guardians of morality.

    "Lenta.ru" has collected stories of those who suffered a fate not much better than death.

    I loved you so much I almost killed you

    Photo story about women mutilated "in the name of honor"

    According to the Acid Survivors Trust International, every year there are about 1,500 attacks on women in the world using acid that disfigures their faces and bodies, permanently depriving them of their hair, and sometimes of sight and hearing. Between 250 and 300 such incidents occur annually in Pakistan. Pakistani women are attacked by family members, acquaintances and even strangers. The reasons can range from disobedience and alleged infidelity to a careless look, refusal to sell their children or marry a person betrothed by relatives. Sometimes, in order to become a victim of an attack, it is enough just to belong to the fair sex and not like a man for some reason.
    Women are disfigured not only by acid. They may try to burn them alive, cut off their nose (ears, lips). Some victims die. In any case, they are doomed to lifelong desocialization. Many become depressed and see the only way out is suicide.
    In the photo: Saira Liaqat is now 29, in this frame she is 22. She is from the Pakistani city of Lahore. In 2003, she was attacked with acid during a family dispute. The sister of her fiancé convinced the latter that Saira was not fit to be a wife, since the wedding ceremony promised to be too expensive. As a result, the 18-year-old girl found herself between two fires ...

    Although laws to tighten the penalties for attacks, as well as to limit the sale of acid, were passed by the National Assembly in 2010, de facto the perpetrators manage to avoid responsibility. The court and the conservative public tacitly defend the torturers of women, since Sharia is more authoritative in their minds than criminal law. The police also do not like to "meddle in family matters."
    When moving to Western countries, people from Asia and the Middle East bring with them a culture of violence against female members of their families. For example, according to British law enforcement, in the United Kingdom from 2010 to 2014, 11,744 cases of honor crimes were recorded (police officers attributed them to murders, assaults with a weapon or acid, cutting off the genitals, beatings and forced marriage).
    In the photo: Iram Said was thrown in the face with acid after she refused to marry a man who liked her. Due to a vengeful gentleman, a Pakistani woman lost her eye. “It was very difficult for me to go through all this, there was a lot of struggle with myself. But I had to move on. Whatever punishment the offender suffers, there is no compensation for me, ”says

    Human rights activists believe that the most important part of the fight against crimes of honor is not only the change legislative framework, but also the education of the population: people need to be explained that the roots of family squabbles are not in Islam. Activists remind that the concept of honor (izzat) comes from tribal, clan and rural customs and is not at all based on the provisions of the Koran. Moreover, honor crimes are also practiced by representatives of other faiths (but still, about 90 percent of cases occur in Islamic countries).
    In the photo: Pakistani Shamim Akhter was 15 when she was raped by three guys in 2005. After that, they splashed acid in her face. What was the reason for the "crime of honor" is not specified. The girl was helped in organizing the Depilex-Smileagain Foundation in Lahore: 10 plastic surgeries partially alleviated the horrific consequences of the attack. Shamim is one of hundreds of Pakistanis who have been tried to be cured by Depilex-Smileagain activists. Women are provided not only with medical care, but also with psychological support.

    Cambodian Sokren Min is 36 years old in this photo. In her hands she holds a portrait of herself, made at the age of 18 - shortly before she was doused with acid. This was done by the ex-wife of her husband (with whom Sokren, however, also broke up). Terrible wounds required 20 operations - not to restore beauty, but to survive. Ming helped out with the Cambodian Acid Survivors Charity, providing not only medical services but also housing.

    Bashiran Bibi is now 54 years old and originally from Punjab, Pakistan. There are many questions in her story, but one thing is clear: either her father-in-law or her husband tried to burn her in a furnace. They may have used acid as well. This happened about 30 years ago. The reason for the reprisal was petty domestic disassembly and discontent of relatives. The woman still lives with her husband. After the tragedy, she bore him five children. The Depilex Smileagain Foundation helps Bibi restore her voice and appearance.

    Shaziya Abdulsattar of Pakistan was the victim of an acid attack at the age of seven in 2010. The same fate befell her mother, who refused to sell Shaziyi's two brothers to a man from Dubai. The angry father of the children took revenge on the female half of the family.

    Pakistani Nalia Raza from Punjab was guilty of rejecting sexual harassment by a school teacher at the age of 13 in 2003. The acid severely damaged her eyes, but, fortunately, through the efforts of doctors, the girl did not completely lose her sight.

    Mumtaz Mai from Pakistan is being helped by activists from the Acid Survivor's Foundation, based in Islamabad. The reason why a man who entered the house in the middle of the night threw acid on her is still unknown. “I saved my family, but I lost my beauty,” says Mumtaz holding his eighth child, daughter Fatima.

    Shanaz Bibi was attacked by a relative armed with a lot of acid. Reason - family disagreements. The woman did not do any recovery operations.

    Pakistani Shamim Mai and her daughter Safiya were attacked with acid after Shamim, a field worker, was raped. The woman filed a complaint against the criminal, and in retaliation, the rapist came to the house at night and doused both women. The eldest partially lost her sight and could no longer work. “My happiness is gone forever,” says Shamim. Human rights activists help mothers and daughters.

    Kanwal Qayyum refused the one who wanted to marry her. She was 18 years old.
