From American Digest (the article is rather disheartening in a way, but a really good read):

A peace activist in a wedding dress to hitch-hike across the Middle East:

An Italian woman artist who was hitch-hiking to the Middle East dressed as a bride to promote world peace has been found murdered in Turkey.

The naked body of Giuseppina Pasqualino di Marineo, 33, known as Pippa Bacca, was found in bushes near the northern city of Gebze on Friday.

She had said she wanted to show that she could put her trust in the kindness of local people.

The whole being kidnapped, raped and murdered thing sort of negates the kindness doesn’t it. April’s Darwin Award Winner

“It is so good to finally meet you,” Jimmy Carter said to the leader of Hamas. “I hope this discussion can help further peace.”

“Kill the jooooos!” yelled the leader of Hamas.

“Yes, I know your grievances and I sympathize,” Carter said. “So what concessions do you want?”

“Die! Joooos die!” replied the leader of Hamas.

“And your adamant about that?”

“Push joooos into the sea!”

Carter thought for a moment. “You’d have to file an environmental impact statement for that.”

“Bash joooos with rocks!”

Carter nodded. “That seems reasonable to me… but I doubt Israel will see it that way. They’re so stubborn.”

“Destroy Israel!”

Carter leaned over and whispered to the leader of Hamas. “Don’t tell anyone, but I agree with you there.”

The leader of Hamas whispered back, “Kill the jooooos.”

Carter smiled and nodded. “Well, I think we made great progress. Hopefully this can lead to you all getting the nation you richly deserve.” He shook the leader of Hamas’s hand. “Goodbye.”

“Kill the joooos.”

As if this story couldn’t get any sicker:

A young Arab man from a small town in northern Israel was arrested on Tuesday after he shot and critically wounded his 19-year-old sister to “preserve family honor.”

According to the 24-year-old attacker’s own testimony, proudly given to police and rescue personnel that he himself called, he shot his sister twice in the head and then repeatedly kicked all parts of her body. Believing the girl to be dead, the young man went to report the deed to his family, which warmly congratulated him for preserving their honor in the context of Islamic law.

Meanwhile, the girl was rushed to an area hospital where she underwent emergency surgery. She remains in unstable and serious condition.

The girl’s crime, according to her brother and would-be killer, was that she had “befriended” other men following her divorce.

We await the outraged comments of the world feminist community.  But why wait?  This sort of thing occurs multiple times every day in the Muslim world.  The blood of these women cries out for vengeance.  They just won’t get any from Western Liberals.

From Saudi Arabia:

A MAN beheaded his 15-month-old nephew in front of his mother in a supermarket in Saudi Arabia apparently after a family dispute, newspapers reported.

The 25-year-old Syrian national picked up a knife from the store in the Red Sea city of Jeddah yesterday and decapitated the little boy in full view of shoppers, Arab News said.

The man apparently killed the little boy following a dispute with the man’s sister and brother-in-law, the English-language daily said.

“He chopped off the boy’s head in front of the mother to get back at her,” a police officer was quoted as saying. The mother fainted and was taken to hospital.

As a matter of fact, I can’t even recall the last beheading a 15 month old child story I read recently.

Each and every year in just Britain - at least according to the Association of Chief Police Officers:

Up to 17,000 women in Britain are being subjected to “honour” related violence, including murder, every year, according to police chiefs.

It warns that the number of girls falling victim to forced marriages, kidnappings, sexual assaults, beatings and even murder by relatives intent on upholding the “honour” of their family is up to 35 times higher than official figures suggest.

The crisis, with children as young as 11 having been sent abroad to be married,………..

Yes - you read that right.  11 year old girls being sent to Bangladesh and Pakistan to become “brides”.  Beatings and Murders occurring in Britain every day.  And then the Archbishop of Canterbury has the gall to come out and say that Britain will need to make some accommodation with sharia law?  It seems like this is already happening:

Women who have been taken overseas to be married against their will are now being rescued on an almost daily basis. The Government’s Forced Marriage Unit (FMU) handled approximately 400 cases last year – 167 of them leading to young Britons being helped back to the UK to escape unwanted partners overseas.

So where is the outraged voice of global feminism?  Can you imagine the outcry if the headlines were “17,000 Blacks subject to Abuse Every Year by Whites”?  And this is  just Britain.  What about France and Germany and Sweden and all the other countries with huge Muslim populations that they are afraid of offending?

Just as a heartbreaking example:

The human cost of honour crime was vividly captured in a haunting video message from murdered Banaz Mahmood, who revealed how her own father had tried to kill her after she abandoned her arranged marriage and fell in love with another man. In the grainy message she told how he plied her with brandy – the first time she had ever drunk alcohol – pulled the curtains and asked her to turn around.

The 19-year-old fled, but less than a month after making the grainy video on a mobile phone, Banaz was dead. Her naked body was found buried in a yard in Birmingham in 2006, more than 100 miles from her London home. She had been raped and tortured by men hired by her uncle to kill her. Mahmood’s father, uncle and one of her killers were sentenced to a total of 60 years in jail for the murder.

Just what kind of uncle hires thugs to rape, torture, and murder his niece?

Why wouldn’t they think it will be forgotten? All the others have been swept under the rug.

clipped from junkyardblog.net the Burmese demonstrations were doomed. The only price the Burmese regime will pay for its apparent murder of thousands of Buddhist monks is mocking and ill will from the global intelligentsia. The Burmese tyrants knew that, too, and that’s why they did it.If there’s anything good that may come from the monks’ stand, it’s that some of that anger is landing on Burma’s patrons in Beijing. Which reminds me of a certain picture. Remember this guy? Yeah, he’s probably dead or in hiding. And (thanks to Google) you’ll have a tough time even finding that picture from the Chinese internet.* It’s like the whole 1989 thing never even happened. And that’s how 2007 is going to be in Burma. They’re a little cruder about it, but inside Burma those pictures of dead monks are going to disappear, just like the inconvenient monks themselves, and just like those who took those inconvenient pictures.
