I have the internal solution to the problems within islam. It will leave islam purified as the glorious gutter cult that it is.

Every muslim knows a muslim who is the wrong flavor of muslim, or a muslim that is not quite muslim "enough". If each day, muslims were to "honor" such a muslim, within a month, islam will be pure in the manner of the prophet, the pedophile mohammed, and their made up moon-god, allahahaha. I've done the math. It works.

I don't know where I first heard it so I can't properly attribute it.

But I once heard somebody quip that after the world wide nuclear war, there would only be about 100 Muslims left.

And they would be spending all their time skulking around the ruins trying to stab each other in the back b/c their Quran was printed in a different font.

And I thought they were wrong when they told me I would have to know what the value of X was. Silly me.

Islamophobia, you say? We could always ask Muzzammil Hassan - the US founder of 'Islamic-American television created to dispel negative stereotypes', but he's currently in a NY State prison for....(wait for it)....beheading his wife.

Honor killing? for a dishonorable rabble.

According to Encyclopædia Britannica: “Honour killings” are in fact violations of both civil and Islamic law, but perpetrators frequently use religious reasons to defend their actions, thereby giving the crime a veneer of justification."

It’s a well-known fact that Islam maintains the protection of life and does not sanction any violation against it.

According to US Department of Justice, General Statistics: Every 9 seconds, a woman is battered.
Over half of the killings of American women are related to intimate partner violence, with the vast majority of the victims dying at the hands of their "romantic" partners.

Another example of Islamic duplicity. When Islam talks about respecting life it means Muslim life. The history of the spread of Islam is a record of enslavement, murder, submission of infidels and humiliation.

Islam doesn't sanction violations against the protection of life? What about killing the Jew hiding behind the tree in the Koran or one of the other holy books, or blowing up "infidels" at the World Trade Center, or raping boys in Afghanistan? When I was in Iraq and very modern looking Iraqi girl thought honor killing was just fine.

Honor killing, female genital mutilation, circumcision for non-medical reasons, virginity tests, child brides , being taught that menstruation is unclean, non-evidence based medicine & cock and dog fighting - all of them should be thrown in the dustbin of history.

"Further, how does one disentangle the supposed tribal components of honor killing from the religious ones?"
I do not think that there are any religious grounds for honor killings in Islam or any other religion. It is all tribal behaviors that have been incorporated into the religions and justified religiously after the fact.
