A Palestinian man stabs his 14-month-old daughter. He throws her body in the city dump. He attempts to stab his pregnant wife "to forcibly abort her pregnancy and kill their unborn child." He turns himself in to the police.
The police confirmed that "that the investigation is looking into "honour killing" motivations for his crime."
"Honor" my foot!!
A man kills his baby and attempts to kill his pregnant wife and they are looking for extenuating circumstances for him!!! Yes, tarnish the woman and the children with "dishonor" so the man can glow in his honor! So he can get a reduced sentence if any at all. So that the village will feel sorry for him and spit on the woman! So that his father and brothers will feel proud of him!
No. There is no "honor killing" here. There is only killing honor.

EXACTLY!!! I haven't heard about this tragedy but read a lot about "honor killing" itself - and am HORRIFIED!! I have a problem to comprehend this is still practized in the 21st century ...
I WISH these man would get the toughest punishment under the sun (which in MY book is NOT death - but lifelong imprisonment with bread and water - without parol .. or better something like a "Gulag Archipelago"!) They are nothing but MURDERERS, KILLERS - of the most demeaning kind!!
Thanks so much for highlighting!!!
Next time i double park in Nablus, I will be sure to let the parking attendant know that it was an honour double park.
HOW is it that the murder of a baby who is only a little bit older than one year is being investigated as an honor killing? what are they thinking?
I love Munich,
Unfortunately, there are still many horrible things practiced in the 21st century. Just watch the everning news!
john,
only if you double parked in a hurry to kill your wife whom you suspect of cheating on you. you'll get a reduced ticket.
Nadia,
Well, if he suspects the woman cheated on him and the baby is not his. That's probably what they are thinking. Or that he was so angered by his wife's behaviour that he lost it and killed his child. She's to blame in all cases.
