“Honor” Killer Made Mistake, Sister Was Virgin
POLICE said they had charged a Jordanian with premeditated murder after his 23-year-old sister and her boyfriend were shot dead in an apparent “honour killing”.
“The suspect shot his sister four times and her Syrian shepherd boyfriend six times when he caught them (together) red-handed early on Sunday” in the eastern Shumari natural reserve near the desert city of Azraq, a spokesman said.
“He turned himself in shortly after the crime, and forensic tests proved that his sister was still a virgin when she was murdered.”
The spokesman said two of the suspect’s cousins had been charged as accessories to the crime, the third such killing this year.
Jordanian authorities recorded a total of 17 so-called “honour” killings in 2007, slightly up on previous years.
The killers often receive light sentences if convicted, as parliament has twice refused to reform the penal code despite pressure from human rights groups to end the near impunity of the perpetrators.

“Honor” killings. there is no honor in killing your own sister or daughter. These people are scumbags and its no different than what the Jihadists do to others. they might as well strap on a vest and blow themselves up somewhere, its no different except maybe even more chicken shit.

Everything I need to know about Islam I learned on 9/11/2001.
March 10th, 2008 at 12:00 pmWell … YEAH! The boyfriend was a “shepherd”!!! Duhhh!
Hey, does the boyfriend’s family now have the right to take back [his] honor from the brother and shoot him?

Whether there is a right by law or not i would still do it if was them. that bastard would catch a slug
March 10th, 2008 at 12:13 pmha ha! one less able to breed!
March 10th, 2008 at 12:38 pmI’ll bet the shepherd was no virgin, sheep-wise…

I have studied the Quran and Hadith extensively only in wahhabism (bin ladin’s school) will you find honor killing is somewhat in very few circumstances justified. Whabbists are still considered muslims however they take allot of the Hadith and Quran to thier own reasoning. Domestic violence happens very frequently in this country over jealosy and false accusations. The Quran teaches that you are not to even harm an ant. THere is no link to Islam in these disonorable killings. THis is just some misinformed goat hearders who have no control over there jealosy. After returning from fallujah I treatened (and wanted to) to kill many people. Just ask my wife and her family, they took out an order of protection against me. It’s gotta be from the heat or maybe the camel spiders wisper evil thoughts into your ear while you are sleeping,
March 10th, 2008 at 2:27 pmWoooops he’s getting a “year” in jail for the double murder, that’ll teach them Muzz
hot heads to think twice about killing virgins…NOT!
Real tough love “justice” in the JizzDickaStan’s of the world.
March 10th, 2008 at 2:45 pmBetter that even 72 virgins go to allah than one adulterer escape sharia law.
March 10th, 2008 at 3:25 pmOopth! Geee…golly…I guess that’s what happens when you kill people on SUSPICION of guilt - with no proof to back it up. Our American justice system may be crying for reform but its a helluva lot better than Sharia.

He should get the death penalty, and I hope he does.
March 10th, 2008 at 5:53 pmDying words “brother is that another koran under your shirt or are you just happy to shoot me?”
March 10th, 2008 at 5:55 pmWith all their adoration of senseless death, ya’d think these muzzies would make abortion not only legal, but FUCKING MANDATORY!
