Police warn Illinois girl who ran away to avoid arranged marriage could become victim of honour killing

Several thoughts here.

First, it's heartening to see that an American police department is finally using the term "honor killing".  It's long past time that the correct term is used for this barbaric facet of Islam.

"Police have warned that a missing 16-year-old girl from Illinois who ran away from home to avoid an arranged marriage could become the victim of an ‘honor killing’."

Second, the girls younger sister (in the presence of her mother and father) has made a public appeal to her to return home and she will not be harmed.  This type of false appeal is made time after time to lure the runaway back home, only to have the girl murdered when the family think its safe.

"Zaineb's 13-year-old sister has issued a plea for her safe return. She said: ‘I just want her to know that she can come home and we're not going to like hurt her or anything because we just want her to be happy and we want her to be safe."

Third, this is the same old story of Muslim immigrant parents coming to America only to have their daughter adopt American freedoms in conflict with the throwback Islamic tenets of the old country.  Once again, the parents want to sell their daughter to an older man in the old country, and the daughter refuses.  Well, the parents have chosen to live in America so they need to adopt to our ways, or get the hell out, and leave their daughters here to enjoy the freedoms and bounty of America....NOW.
