Reuters story: "Father says killed daughter in Canadian hijab case". When will we accept that Islam and Muslims are not compatible with western society and western values? The obvious retort from the multiculturalists and politically correct apologists is that this case can't be used to taint all Muslims in western countries. True. That is not the issue.
The issue is the compatibility of Muslim "social customs" and our society. The father was acting as true adherent to Islamic values. Defenders of Islam usually say that "honor killings" are not perpetrated strictly in adherence to Islam but are "Arabic" customs (the distinction must be very reassuring to Muslim girls). Well, this family was Pakistani MUSLIM and not Arab.
It will be interesting to hear what the apologists and the flaks for Islam will have to say on this (don't expect extensive coverage of this embarrassing item in the mainstream press in the US and Canada). The real trick will be how it can all be explained away by Muslim rage at western injustice and Israel's treatment of the Palestinians.
