Honor Killings In America

My friend Eric at Classical Values has a post up on honor killings in America. Let me quote a bit:

The idea of "honor killings" of Muslim girls by their fathers for dressing like Westerners or dating boys would strike most Americans as too horrific to contemplate. Certainly not the kind of thing that would happen here, right?

Think again. Not only is it happening, but it's barely being reported.

If you're as horrified as I am that even a hint of this sort of thing would happen here, don't miss Phyllis Chesler's "Dead in Dallas: Honor Killings Land on our Shores -- a story about Amina and Sarah Said, who were shot to death, and whose father is being sought by police.

Eric has much more with lots of links. Go read the whole thing.
