I think he'll respond when he gets back from his usual weekend break.
I looked up a few words from the headline, and it seems to say
something about an extreme increase in law activity something or other

Well, what is a jobless inner city area if not a ghetto? Please indicate
where Islam was blamed for this ghettoisation though, that, after all, is
the point.

I didn't reply. I agreed with about 75% of what you wrote, and I liked
the way you ended each paragraph ... so I decided at that point there
was no reason to argue a few details. It is my opinion the Mufti's role
in Hitler's heirarchy has been underreported by history. My links about
the Mufti do not prove anything, one way or the other. They simply
provide evidence. For example, the BBC story demonstrates his high
level of operational command). One of the other links told of 5000
Jewish children that Hitler was ready to trade for some German POW's
.... until the Mufti convinced the SS to forego the deal, and the 5000
children were sent to death camps. The Mufti was concerned the 5000
children would eventually be sent to the Palestine Mandate, and that
was the last thing he wanted to see happen. A German officer said later
he thought the Mufti would have liked to see all Jews dead.

Nonetheless, the article Hans posted was a) an opinion piece rather than

In Expressen today, there's an article about young women from certain
cultures getting killed by their fathers for loving the wrong man. That is a
good example of what I'm talking about: Some people don't want to
participate in our society; but they sure would like to set the rules.

Oh... The ghettos are sub-societies outside the real society. That's the
point.
Of course nobody (I think) really wants to kill his own daughter, but it's
in the culture. It was just an example.

News
to us
all. I'm sure. Howvere, even though the opinion piece was written
by
a
member of Folkpartiet (who have some decidedly Tony-esque views on
race)
they made no attempt to blame this phenomena on Muslims.
Ironic that Folkpartiet is the self-proclaimed "Liberal" party of
Sweden, which makes me think it would not be Tony's party of choice.
Well.. they're more "libertarian" than liberal, but I actually got the
confised withe the "Moderate" party (which is anything but).
Nonetheless, the article Hans posted was a) an opinion piece rather
than
hard news and b) made no mention whatsoever of Islam being the main
(or
even
a!) factor in the economic ghettoisation of inner city areas.

In Expressen today, there's an article about young women from certain
cultures getting killed by their fathers for loving the wrong man.
How has that cause the "ghettoisation" , violence or lack of jobs you
were
complaining about in Malmö?
That is a good example of what I'm talking about:
No it isn't - either that or you are confused as to exactly what you ARE
talking about. See above.
Some people don't want to
participate in our society; but they sure would like to set the rules.
Maybe they would, but how are they doing so far? Can you point me toward
any
groups lobbying for "honour" killings to be made legal? Did you read
the
news today? There's a conference being held in Sweden to condemn
"honour"
killings. I can't imagine, for even one second, that anyone is going to
suggest it should be permitted in the interests of cultural diversity..
Oh... The ghettos are sub-societies outside the real society. That's the
point.
Of course nobody (I think) really wants to kill his own daughter, but it's
in the culture. It was just an example.
tw should know all about it. I have posted numerous articles on the
subject. However, he continues to minimize it. (I just read another book
by a young Jordanian woman in exile about the death of her best friend at
the hands of the friend's father. All because she snuck out to (chastely)
date a Christian boy. The friend is in exile because she fears for her own
life for arranging the meetings. the royalties from the book go to a
charity working to erradicate honour killings). You will have a hard time

In Expressen today, there's an article about young women from
certain
cultures getting killed by their fathers for loving the wrong man.
How has that cause the "ghettoisation" , violence or lack of jobs you
were
complaining about in Malmö?
That is a good example of what I'm talking about:
No it isn't - either that or you are confused as to exactly what you
ARE
talking about. See above.
Some people don't want to
participate in our society; but they sure would like to set the
rules.
Maybe they would, but how are they doing so far? Can you point me
toward
any
groups lobbying for "honour" killings to be made legal? Did you read
the
news today? There's a conference being held in Sweden to condemn
"honour"
killings. I can't imagine, for even one second, that anyone is going
to
suggest it should be permitted in the interests of cultural
diversity..
Oh... The ghettos are sub-societies outside the real society. That's
the
point.
Of course nobody (I think) really wants to kill his own daughter, but
it's
in the culture. It was just an example.
tw should know all about it. I have posted numerous articles on the
subject. However, he continues to minimize it. (I just read another
book
by a young Jordanian woman in exile about the death of her best friend
at
the hands of the friend's father. All because she snuck out to
(chastely)
date a Christian boy. The friend is in exile because she fears for her
own
life for arranging the meetings. the royalties from the book go to a
charity working to erradicate honour killings). You will have a hard
time
convincing tw, though!
What's the book called?
"Honor Lost---Love and Death in Modern-Day Jordan" by Norma Khouri.
Thank you. I haven't read it but looked at some reviews and an interview with
Khouri. I reminds me of another book (that I have read): Never Without My
Daughter. You've surely seen the movie (but of you haven't don't worry, it's
a piece of trash), It is rerun at least 4-5 times a year by most cable TV
channels, everytime there is a little friction with Iran.
Back to this one, honour killings are far less common than the arrangement of
books in the suburban bookstores would suggest. Such killings are also not
merely the preserve of Muslims. In the West we prefer to call them by the
delicate euphemism of "crimes of passion". However, like the old news adage
that what bleeds should lead, publishers seem to prefer books that offer a
sensational-if not entirely accurate-view of the Middle East to books that
reflect more nuanced and balanced views of what is a most complex and
heterogenous cultural millieu. With Muslim-Western relations characterised by
mutual misunderstandings and ignorance, such books-whether penned by Muslims
or non-Muslims-feed the falsehood that lies at the heart of so many of the
problems between the two civilizations.
For this reason, the real tragedy is not that this book and many others like
it are basically a very distorted portrait of reality; the real tragedy is
that so many of us find them so believable.

I didn't reply. I agreed with about 75% of what you wrote, and
I
liked
the way you ended each paragraph ... so I decided at that point
there
was no reason to argue a few details. It is my opinion the
Mufti's
role
in Hitler's heirarchy has been underreported by history. My
links
about
the Mufti do not prove anything, one way or the other. They
simply
provide evidence. For example, the BBC story demonstrates his
high
level of operational command). One of the other links told of
5000
Jewish children that Hitler was ready to trade for some German
POW's
... until the Mufti convinced the SS to forego the deal, and
the
5000
children were sent to death camps. The Mufti was concerned the
5000
children would eventually be sent to the Palestine Mandate, and
that
was the last thing he wanted to see happen. A German officer
said
later
he thought the Mufti would have liked to see all Jews dead.

So then, it appears the "enlightened" approach is to sweep "honor"
killings under the rug, and attempt to diminish their cold blooded
horror by equating them with crimes of passion. As the following
article points out, it is difficult to know the actual number of
"honor" killings since they often go unreported and unpunished -- and
whenever two or more family members conspire to commit an "honor"
killing, that cannot be considered a crime of passion. A crime of
passion occurs in the heat of the moment, but conspiracy to commit
murder is premeditated cold blooded murder.
[quoting] Thousands of Women Killed for Family "Honor"
Hillary Mayell
for National Geographic News
February 12, 2002
[excerpt] Hundreds, if not thousands, of women are murdered by their
families each year in the name of family "honor." It's difficult to get
precise numbers on the phenomenon of honor killing; the murders
frequently go unreported, the perpetrators unpunished, and the concept
of family honor justifies the act in the eyes of some societies.
[excerpt] The teenage brothers of victims are frequently directed to
commit the murder because, as minors, they would be subject to
considerably lighter sentencing if there is legal action. Typically,
they would serve only three months to a year. [end excerpt]

So then, it appears the "enlightened" approach is to sweep "honor"
killings under the rug, and attempt to diminish their cold blooded
horror by equating them with crimes of passion.
Hmm.. I'm not sure how you got *there* from *here*. Personally, I don't
regard a "crime of passion" as any more or less excusable than an honour
kiling or a good, old fashioned murder, and I'm fairly confident Stat
doesn't either. It seems to me that by having a get out such as "crimes of
passion" Western society is guilty of at least as much under-rug-sweeping as
any other.Especially seeing as in both teh cases of honour killings and
crimes of passion women are likely to be the victims.
It seems unfair to use honour killing as a stick to beat Islam with as it is
by no means a problem exculsively confined to Islam and I very much doubt
you'd find justification for it in the Koran. this is the gist of my
argument with Jane (which she loves to misrepresent as me "defending" or
"justifying" honour killing - for the record I see no possible justification
or defense for either)
Of course, putting someone to death as punishment for ANY crime is an
obscenity and not the behaviour of a civilised society.
As the following
article points out, it is difficult to know the actual number of
"honor" killings since they often go unreported and unpunished -- and
whenever two or more family members conspire to commit an "honor"
killing, that cannot be considered a crime of passion. A crime of
passion occurs in the heat of the moment, but conspiracy to commit

I'm glad you agree punishing someone with death is premeditated, cold
blooded murder. "Cr | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
