Subject: RE: BS: Islamic Protest in Wootton Bassett
I notice the article doesn't give numbers for how many honor killings involve Muslims. You have just assumed that all honor killings are committed by Muslims, haven't you, Keith?

Honor killings are not a problem only with Muslims. Other groups do it also. You only hear about Muslims doing it, though, because it serves the interests of some people to spread hate towards Muslims, and those who need a group to scapegoat are extremely willing to help them do it.
