This is absolutely horrible ! Not only are these people animals, but I can't believe this is happening in modern society. How can this be justified by religious creed? I am still just horrified by all this. Sorry if I sound a little riled up.

Horrid! Not even animals treat their kind this way. Too many deaths have occurred in the name of religion. This is sickening.

I seen the video and just cant understand it? They stand around with their cell cams out like its some great deed they are doing when in fact its amongst the most evil things I have every seen. Is it wrong for me to want that whole country obliterated? They are not people and should not be treated as such imo if that whole area was exposed to nerve gas I would support the action!

I truly do not think there could ever be peace between the western world and fanatical maniacs like those extremists which seem to be a growing majority over there? There is no justice at all for that poor girl to and that whole group actually thinks they did something good which makes me literally sick and upset . I say make a parking lot out of that whole part of the world we do not need people like that at all and I am sorry if that sounds harsh but thats my opinion. THOSE WERE NOT PEOPLE!

Another senseless, brutal death brought to you by Islam, the Religion of Peace.

Yeah, it's a one liner but what more can be said?

I am truely ashamed and embarrassed that these animals are considered human.

Unfortunately thats how low people can sink to when religion is involved.

It's been like that throughout history and in most religions, and unfortunately i can't ever see it changing.

Shocking video, but sadly not the only one about and won't be the last.

CX.

One might say you have an "extremist" point of view on this. Extremism is never good, regardless of the direction it goes.

These actions are disgusting, but instead of killing MORE innocent gilrs like this one in a massive bombing champaigne, maybe education on human rights is a better idea.

Yes, and one of the reasons is the fact that they could considered a people without country if we are talking about Kurds.


Saddam Hussein tried it on some people and look what he got!

We should never kill another human being (or any living being) without a really good reason like self-defense.

PS:I did not saw the video.

I came close to barfing over the keyboard of sheer disgust, it's hard to understand such monstrous behaviour exists today. Yet there it is, when will some grow up?

Now it's only a matter of time till somebody drops in to say not all are like them, true. But see for yourself what religion can drive people to do, if twisted correctly.

Ugh.

Yeah, wipe out a whole group of people because of their senseless beliefs. While you're at it, take out yourself along the way.

I usually can't stand any religious discussions or anything to do with it (one being this very reason) but it's hilarious when folks scream they should be killed over their actions. They shouldn't, they've been brought up this way since day 1 fed the same way any other religious family is brought up. This includes all Christians, Jews, Hindu, etc etc.

The people involved deserve punishment and an earthly one while you're at it. Not death to a whole region/group.

You guys make me sick.

I couldnt even watch the whole thing....Im not going to going to say 'well all kurds suck because they did such a thing or all religion is bad" (i know nothing of the kurdish religion) But i will say that some people suck and some people are bad and what they did to that girl was wong IMO

Culture Clash


Ironically enough, that's not the case here.

From a related article:

The moment a teenage girl was stoned to death for loving the wrong boy


Wikipedia: Yazidi


To call the Yazidi religion "Islam" is akin to calling Christianity and Islam "branches of Judaism".

And on that note, truly devout Jews will stone adulterers to death as commanded by God (see Leviticus and Deuteronomy), so maybe we should blame God or the Jews for their pioneering work in the field of stoning people to death.

What makes this particular example so ironic is that this girl was apparently stoned to death by non-Muslims for associating with a Muslim.

Make of that what you will.

Certainly, there is no shortage of stonings in the name of Islam these days, but -- unless these news reports are patently false -- to lay this particular case at the feet of Muslims would be grossly unjust.

i didn't watch because i know i would have been pissed/annoyed/bummed i can only imagine what it looks like..anyway ughh damn this hella blows. i feel so bad for her man.
shes only 17 jeez. Andyeah not ALL kurds are like this..u know the whole rotten apples in the bunch saying.
it's scary how the mindset of some of these people is. don't they realize the bible is extremely outdated those practices shouldnt be used today but whatever. I just hope someday they will wisen up but i doubt it which makes me bummed. i mean dam how can they be so hardheaded its sketchy as hell!!! booo to those people not all of them but the few that have the mindset. im sure they think our rituals/beliefs are crazy as well.

I did see see the video, and I agree it is disgusting, but to decide to ethnically cleanse any group of people shows a complete lack of understanding of how humanity works. I can easily imagine an alien coming to Earth and deciding that all of humanity is evil because some subsets of humanity have done the some pretty evil stuff, but we all would agree that that would be an incorrect conclusion, just as it would be incorrect to label all Kurds as being evil and deserving of death just because of this one incident.

Kurds are typically Muslim (and they typically follow a subset of Sunni-Islam, ironically, though it's not strictly Sunni-Islam), but that's not to say all Kurds are Muslim. Kurds are united by their ethnicity--not their religion. Their ethnicity is tied to a long gone state called Kurdistan that spans modern Iraq, Turkey, Iran, and Syria. A significant minority of Kurds still practice some of the native monotheistic religions (grouped under the label Yazdanism). An even smaller minority practice Christianity (do you Christians want to be killing your own) or even Judaism.

A lot of this information is on Wikipedia if anyone wishes to check. Another good site is here.

I don't agree with stoning, it is simply awful but i will say this.

To all those that constantly use the word "animsls" in place of humans, well you disgust me quiet a lot. Different cultures have different customs, just becuase they don't fit in with your view doesn't mean you can call them animals. Yes there are limits to brutality and being human, but please, this is there way of dealing with it. No doubt they view your ideas as animalistic, maybe instead we should accept each other for what we are.

Sorry i just hate it when people call others animals in this kind of situation. It seems to suggest they are less than human, unthinking and uncaring. Be very careful with this kind of view.

Regardless of what religion they practice, there is no excuse for slamming cinder blocks on a 17 year old girls head until blood splatters and not stopping until well after she has stopped moving. They were stomping the $#@% out of her as well. That is the most appalling thing I have ever seen. And to think that all she was doing was being with someone she liked/loved. What cowards!!!

I am sorry to "OFFEND" by using the word animals but I believe somone else said it best:



I honestly believe that says it best.

This behavior should not be accepted by any "culture" , if you can even call this behavior! I believe it is the opposite. This is just my personal opinion.

Errm, anybody who throws rocks at someones head IS uncaring and unthinking, therefore less human then me.

These kind of cases make my blood boil.

WOW..thank god those are all innocent iraqi people just trying to live while the BIG MEAN USA INVADES their country and makes them do bad things and our soldiers are so mean that they hurt and kill people that stone little girls and use car bombs to kill anyone they can, etc....We are definitly the reason for terrorism and the "MEAN" things that happen in iraq and abroad.

What I like is where are all the American haters and military protestors right now...Why are you not sticking up for your wonder iraqi people now who are so innocent and being abused by the USA. Thank god we put our own troops in prison and ruined their careers for a few photos of iraqi men naked (but well fed and getting medical treatment)..I mean they could of just stoned them to death in the name of islam and taken pics with there cell phones and gotten away with it....and some of you ACTUALLY wonder why these people are such a threat to the US

Are Iraqis evil? I'm not saying that that's what you meant, but that's what your words seem to be implying.

What happened to taking the moral high road? Is that just too difficult now?

These are genuine questions, and I'm not trying to attack you, but I can't help but wonder about these things.

Personally, I don't think its ethical on our part to leave Iraq when we're the ones responsible for bringing it down. On the other hand, I sympathize with those that want to leave. To paraphrase a famous quote, if we stay, there will be trouble--if we go, it will be double. There's bad, and then there's worse. The question is, which is which?
