You probably vaguely heard the news in recent days but chalked it up to one more crazy person, maybe even a dispute over drugs, and dismissed the murder/suicide story in Texas on Christmas.  Turns out what the mainstream media isn’t saying is that it likely was an ‘honor’ murder.

See the story at Jihad Watch today, here:

Aziz Yazdanpanah, a Muslim, didn’t like his daughter’s non-Muslim boyfriend and was exhibiting stalker behavior. “She couldn’t date at all until she was a certain age, but when he was going to let her date she couldn’t date anyone outside of their race or religion.”

Again and again we have seen honor killings in which fathers kill daughters who are dating non-Muslims or have supposedly besmirched the family honor by some sexual indiscretion. Lt. Todd Dearing says that motive isn’t important — which is generally only the case when Islam is involved.
