Honor-killing rhetoric frames Islam as un-reformable from within

Evidence

How many girls are murdered that we don’t know about, whose families never reported them missing? I am talking about here in the US, Canada and Europe. Murdered for being too western like Jessica Mokdad in Michigan, Noor Almaleki in Arizona (the first honor killing prosecution in the US), Amina and Sarah Said (their father who shot them execution style is still at large), et al. The only way we can help Islam to reform and renounce the sharia (at least in the West) is to shine a light on these brutal and savage practices. — Carl W.
