The scourge of honour killings in Europe: How young women have paid the ultimate price for defying their families and embracing Western lifestyles
By KEVIN ADJEI-DARKO, SENIOR FOREIGN NEWS REPORTER

Across Europe, the killings follow the same pattern - a young woman decides she wants to live her life, chooses her own partner, or simply stops obeying the rules her family has set for her.

What begins as a private conflict inside the home gradually intensifies into something far more dangerous.

Days later, she is missing. Then, she is often found dead in a case of honour killing. The circumstances of each case may differ, yet the underlying message remains unmistakable.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

It isn't a crime in Europe if Muslims kill their own children, is it? :whistle:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
The message is clear: Stay in your bag or die.

Who would embrace such a "religion"?

It's a death cult.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
