		<description>Hello,

 This a murder case.  He cannot hide behind religion to justify this.
He is a muslim but he does not represent muslim values.  Lets seperate Islam as a monolethic religion just as Christianity and Judaisium is.

  Murder cases are reported all over the country but you are hardly ever hear a link between the murderer and his religion, but if he is a muslim, then it immediately becomes a story of &#039;a Muslim murdering his Wife&#039; WHY?  

 Women are victims of honor killing, domestic violence, rape and Murder and until we see women having full rights and protection, then she will never achieve ultimate freedom.  A WOMEN MUST BECOME INDEPENDENT, FINANCIALLY AND CLAIM HER RIGHTS WITHIN HER OWN COUNTRY (IF SHE IS NOT GRANTED IT, THEN SHE MUST FIGHT FOR IT AND CLAIM HER RIGHTS FROM ISLAM, BECAUSE ISLAM GIVES WOMEN MANY RIGHTS.  

Thank you,

		<description>This is the reason im anti-thiest. This should be the war to fight. Ignorance. People should be sick to talk about this lightly. People pick and choose to be bad or good and religions make it harder for people(stupid people)to live there lives. Look to science, reason, intelligence. Yourthumb is up your a**.</description>

		<description>More updates...

http://www.buffalonews.com/cityregion/story/582625.html?imw=Y

Also...

&quot;“It’s obviously difficult to envision a more vicious crime than this,” Sedita said. “But the sheer brutality of the crime, under New York State law, does not elevate murder second to murder first.”

First-degree murder, punishable by a sentence of up to life imprisonment without parole, may be charged only in an intentional killing accompanied by one of 13 special circumstances, according to the law.

Those special circumstances include the killings of a judge, police officer, corrections officer, witness, or a contract killing, terrorist act, serial killing or torture killing.

Sedita pointed out that New York State law does not recognize a beheading — no matter how vicious that is — as one of those 13 specific circumstances.&quot;

I think it&#039;s time to change the law.</description>

		<description>Look at the Women and Religion site. There are some horrors there. The (LEGAL) sentence, imposed by a judge, for one man who stole (Pakistan), was for HIS SISTER to be repeatedly raped by 4 men, to pay for his crime. She was raped for an hour by these &#039;holy&#039; men.  Discrimination is rife in all religions, even the C of E - I don&#039;t see 12 female bishops in the Lords! Catholicism tries to control women&#039;s sexual activity and health all over the world causing death &amp; disease by its vile and self serving machinations. We in the West are lucky, as our lives are no longer in danger, so we must do all we can to help women living in these barbaric countries. The march on March 7th on Women&#039;s Day would be a good way to start.</description>

		<description>Third world men do not respect women and women have no rights.  Just because they are in America you can&#039;t actually think that type of mantality will change.  In Turkey the female prisoners are sold as prostitutes, the women even serve time for the men.  America needs to take a better look at what types of traditional values are being practiced in our country.  For me American values is what counts and not to mention Our Constitution.  We had better start living by it or we will all lose.</description>

		<description>all i can say that is this man was not practicing true islam if he really did this. no were in the quran does it say that a man can kill his wife for no good reason. even devorce.... besides, i&#039;m sure she had a good reason to want to devorce him if he killed her. he was probly like that thier whole marrage. wich is all very sad because instead of makeing muslims look good he did the oposite. but muslims really are not bad people. there are bad people in every culture and realigon that you will every see. but as for the god fearing muslims, you would never see this kind of behavior.</description>
