"The Whore Lived Like a German"
Turkish honor killings in Germany (where family members murder a daughter who has gone outside the bounds of islamically acceptable behavior). As my old prof Eugene Volokh says, this article will make your blood curdle. I think I have read other stories of honor killings where women have had acid thrown on their faces or been doused with gasoline and lit on fire by their family members.
