The Death of a Muslim Woman |
In the past four months, six Muslim women living in Berlin have been
brutally murdered by family members. Their crime? Trying to break free
and
live Western lifestyles. Within their communities, the killers are
revered
as heroes for preserving their family dignity. How can such a horrific
and
shockingly archaic practice be flourishing in the heart of Europe? The
deaths have sparked momentary outrage, but will they change the grim
reality
for Muslim women?
Hatin Surucu just wanted to live her own life. Instead, she became
Berlin's
latest victim of honor killings. Her Turkish Muslim brothers allegedly
gunned her down for adopting Western ways.
Hatin's crime, it appears, was the desire to lead a normal life in her
family's adopted land. The vivacious 23-year-old beauty, who was raised
in
Berlin, divorced the Turkish cousin she was forced to marry at age 16.
She
also discarded her Islamic head scarf, enrolled in a technical school
where
she was training to become an electrician and began dating German men.
For
her family, such behavior represented the ultimate shame -- the embrace
of
"corrupt" Western ways. Days after the crime, police arrested her three
brothers, ages 25, 24 and 18. The youngest of the three allegedly
bragged to
his girlfriend about the Feb. 7 killing. At her funeral, Hakin's
Turkish-Kurdish parents draped their only daughter's casket in verses
from
the Koran and buried her according to Muslim tradition. Absent of
course,
were the brothers, who were in jail.
Precise statistics on how many women die every year in such honor
killings
are hard to come by, as many crimes are never reported, said Myria
Boehmecke
of the Tuebingen-based women's group Terre des Femmes which, among
other
things, tries to protect Muslim girls and women from oppressive
families.
The Turkish women's organization Papatya has documented 40 instances of
honor killings in Germany since 1996.
In many cases, fathers -- and sometimes even mothers -- single out
their
youngest son to do the killing, Boehmecke said, "because they know
minors
will get lighter sentences from German judges."
The November murder in neighboring Holland of filmmaker Theo van Gogh
-- who
was shot and stabbed to death by an Islamic extremist angry over his
depiction of the violence inflicted on Muslim women in forced marriages
--
galvanized the Netherlands and sent shock waves across Europe. As a
result,
Germans, too, began to take a second look at the 3.2 million immigrants
--
2.5 million of whom are Turkish -- living among them and to talk about
the
serious flaws of the nation's 1960's immigration policies. The program
brought thousands of Turkish workers to Germany, but provided no real
means
of integrating the Muslim Turks or helping them understand Western
concepts
like individualism, human rights and equality. Now, Cileli said,
perhaps,
honor killings and other horrors experienced by Muslim women will
finally be
given the scrutiny they have long deserved (Jody K. Biehl, Spiegel
Online -
March 2, 2005, Berlin).

NEA, Gay Militants: Joined At The Hip
Lee Duigon
If a private citizen tells his neighbor's children that they ought to
try
gay sex, he might wind up in a correctional facility. If he talks that
way
to your 13-year-old son, you'll want him put away--pronto.
But when this very same behavior, toward the same children, is
displayed by
adults who belong to America's biggest teachers' union, most parents
simply
let them do it. In fact, they pay them to.
The NEA is committed to the cause of militant homosexuality. It's the
richest, most politically powerful union in America, and it has daily
access
to most of America's children. And it wants to recruit them for the
homosexual lifestyle.
Lean this equation, America:
Public schools=The homosexual agenda
If you don't believe it, visit nea-glc.org/, the website of the
National
Education Association's Gay and Lesbian Coalition. There, among their
"great
achievements" in shaping NEA policy, the homosexual militants cite the
NEA's
promotion of "the lesbian-gay-bisexual curriculum" and "family life
education... regarding the diversity of sexual orientation."
The NEA has also campaigned for the proclamation of
"Gay-Lesbian-Bisexual-Transsexual History Month" (try putting that on
a
T-shirt), homosexual studies at Catholic colleges--and, of course,
homosexual "marriage."
The people of Massachusetts know the teachers' union's commitment to
"gay
marriage." Aline Isaacson of GLSEN (Gay-Lesbian-Straight Education
Network),
the media's favorite poster gal for "gay marriage", is
also--surprise!--a
paid consultant to the Massachusetts teachers' union. Paid in taxpayer
dollars, to boot. (You may remember Massachusetts GLSEN from a few
years ago
as the organizers of graphic, intensely perverted sex "workshops" for
public
school children--a scandal that came to be known as "fist-gate.")
Ms. Isaacson, according to the grass-roots Article 8 Alliance, these
days
makes it a full-time job lobbying state legislators to keep them from
jumping ship on "gay marriage" and voting for the Bill of Address
which
would remove the outlaw Supreme Judicial Court judges who imposed this
oxymoron on the people of Massachusetts. Supported by taxpayers'
money, she
makes daily, face-to-face visits to individual lawmakers. Nice work if
you
can get it.
Too bad you couldn't make it to the gym teachers' state convention in
New
Jersey, in February. It wasn't about volleyball. For public school gym
teachers, Job One--according to the convention's floor displays,
handouts,
posters, and workshop topics (all of which I saw personally)--is
getting the
kids comfy with homosexuality. To this end, they handed out a
"resource
guide"--handsomely produced, slick, paid for largely by Fleet Bank
Inc.--intended for distribution in all the public schools. (For more
information, see my article, "Now It's the Gym Teachers," in the
February
archive of the Chalcedon website, chalcedon.edu.)
You would have seen even more of the same at "Twenty Years of Great
Sex
(Ed)" last year, a national conference of "sex educators" hosted by
Rutgers,
New Jersey's taxpayer-funded state university. Again, there was no
effort to
hide the educators' whole-hearted penchant for homosexuality...

Those feminazi German's ought to just demand neighborhood Protective Centers
where them moslem broads can go and where the Protective Centers can let
them borrow a Luger, or a cheap Russian .45 to carry around whenever their
family is around.
In fact, there should be Protective Centers all over the European Union
where moslem broads can go to check out guns, knives, or swords that they
can use against their families. That would be the only fair way to handle
the problem.
However, as wimpy as those EU socialists are, they will probably continue to
pass out pamphlets instead of guns.
The US ought to consider handing out free large caliber shooters to all the
broads in Iraq, too. That would put a fast end to the so-called insurgency.
Iraq's male dominated society needs some kind of shake-up and who would miss
some lunatic insurgents, or even anyone who looked like one?
