Islam - "Honor" murders go hi-tech

Just in case you thought Muslim so called "honor" killings were carried out by poor, illiterate or backward Muslims alienated from modern society - Think again.

BATMAN, Turkey — For Derya, a waiflike girl of 17, the order to kill herself came from an uncle and was delivered in a text message to her cellphone. “You have blackened our name,” it read. “Kill yourself and clean our shame or we will kill you first.”

Derya said her crime was to fall for a boy she had met at school last spring. She knew the risks: her aunt had been killed by her grandfather for seeing a boy. But after being cloistered and veiled for most of her life, she said, she felt free for the first time and wanted to express her independence.

Few on the left speak out against the religion of peace's abuses of women.
