A Kuwaiti killed his 13-year-old daughter by slitting her throat in front of her siblings because he thought she was not a virgin, newspapers reported yesterday.
The 38-year-old father, identified only as Adnan, blindfolded and handcuffed his daughter, Asma, before murdering her late Tuesday as she pleaded for him to spare her life, Al-Rai Al-Aam said.
After cutting her throat a first time, the man swapped the knife for one with a sharper blade while his daughter bled and screamed in pain as her two brothers and a sister watched, the daily added. It said forensic examinations proved the girl was still a virgin.

>>"Heres another story about a dumb Arab."
My God! If I may El, That is such a.....GORA(White) statement.
Where are the links to this story? Come on El, you could be a little more journalistic than this.
Symbolism? What do you mean symbolism? My username is "El Savior", what better avatar than buddy jesus?!
It really doesn't mean anything. Its just a username.
yes it does have credibility. It was an article in the ArabNews.
hey knightmare, although yeah el savior didn't post his reference, these stories are COMPLETELY true. Unfortunately, honor killings among arabs are VERY common.
i don't think that was a GORA statement AT ALL! It was a generality but considering the topic el savior was addressing it was TRUE.
Hey Vora, I know about the honor killings and much more about the Middle East. But, the "dumb arab" phrase is still too racist.
Hey El, when are you going to update your blog? Abdusalaam and I work on a new post almost everyday for your slaying, and here you haven't updated since January 28, 2005. Awaken your literary demon.

i'm muslim like you and we know the honor killing are forbidden in our religion :it's due to the ignorance and old traditions
