These women were murdered by their family because of their religious beliefs
And your only response is how hot they were?
prime example of the conditioning this planet has gone through, people are numb to tragedy anymore........the human race is lost
Im convinced that if someone had a person infront of them put a gun to someones head and pull the trigger, a vast majority of people anymore wouldnt feel a damn thing.....
Disgusting

First of all, this is NOT ISLAM. In Islam no right is given to kill anyone except in self defense or in a war when you are being attacked.
Although Sikhs and Hindus do sometimes commit such murders, honor killings, both worldwide and in the West, are mainly Muslim-on-Muslim crimes.
In this study, worldwide, 91 percent of perpetrators were Muslims.
In North America, most killers (84 percent) were Muslims, with only a few Sikhs and even fewer Hindus perpetrating honor killings; in Europe, Muslims comprised an even larger majority at 96 percent while Sikhs were a tiny percentage. In Muslim countries, obviously almost all the perpetrators were Muslims.

Turkey saw 1,000 honour killings in the first seven months of 2009. Honour killings in Turkey have increased 14 fold in the last 7 years.

Really just wanted to point out that this is not one dude, its half of an entire family.
In my view, that sort of changes it from "dad is angry" to WTF?

Bomb threat delays 'honor' murder trial in Canada
Mohammed Shafia, 58; his wife, Tooba Mohammad Yahya, 42; and their son, Hamed, 21, are charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Shafia's three teenage daughters and his first wife in his polygamous marriage.
In taking the stand, Shafia swore to tell the truth on the Quran and he again invoked the holy book to say Islam does not condone killing people to preserve a family's honor.

Muslims are not Christian. Christians believe that Jesus is God's son from Heaven. Muslims say he was nothing but a man, & Muhammed is superior.
According to Islamic tradition, the rock is the spot from which Muhammad ascended to Heaven accompanied by the angel Gabriel. Further, Muhammad was taken here by Gabriel to pray with Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. After Muhammad's return, he called all who would believe him to join with him and be Muslim.

I am going to delve deeper into the history of Muslim fundamentalism, because it's becoming more and more clear to me that it is actually the result of Western(as well as communists) policies that have led to this.
"I say to myself, you did well. Would they come back to life a hundred times, you should so the same again," he says. And in another played in court and translated from the Afghan language Dari, he says, "May the devil defecate on their on their graves! This is what a daughter should be? Would a daughter be such a whore?" Shafia and his lawyers tried to explain that his shocking words are traditional expressions in Dari that should not be translated literally.
In an interview with CNN, Mojab said that many times, honor crimes are calculated acts that involve more than one family member. "There is a very important difference between honor killing and violence against women in the form of domestic violence. It is plotted, it is premeditated." Mojab said. "What we need to understand is that the male power and the male desire for the control of the woman's body and the woman's sexuality -- the honor resides in that sort of understanding and the ownership of women's body and sexuality," he said. "So when that is being presented in a way that is not acceptable to the social norm, then the only way the honor can be restored is by purifying that. And the purification is through blood."
