    Wow that fucking sucks.

    I thought that was an article... I don't need to be seeing a mob killing a young girl. Wish I hadn't clicked this thread.

    Digusting, I can't believe how ignorant some people can be of others. Glad I live where I do today.

    Question: Other than the title, where's the proof that this is the actual context of the video?

    I wasn't saying the video was fake, I was saying the context of the video could be.

    It may come as a shock to sheltered females viewing such a video but it is common for women to be brutalized and beaten in public in many underdeveloped countries. Women are actually worth less monetarily than livestock.

    This was an honor killing, CNN said the some of the girl's relatives were arrested in connection with the murder.

    I suddenly feel less bad my stepbrother & friends are roaming Iraq with semiautomatic guns (US Army). That country needs to be shocked into the 21st century.

    Yeah, where does it say she fell in love. NOT that her end was justified, but the title states "falling in love." Who did she fall for? What happened, here. The context, in this case, wouldn't really make it better but it would explain just how fucked up it was.

    How fucking sick. People snapping pictures as it's happening, right in her smashed face. I wanted to yell 'She's dead, stop it already!" but they just kept going!

    If anything, that scared me more than the actual ACT... the cameras...

    Uck, really scary. I know i've read a lot about this happening, and similiar cases. Its really sad that in this day and age, there's still cultures where we are so devalued that this is allowed and encouraged to happen!

    "Kurdistan

    Thousands of women become victims of so called "honour killings" each year in Kurdistan. According to Kurdish officials, women are dying nearly every day in Kurdistan for apparently dishonoring their families. [8] In 2007 the stoning to death of a Kurdish teenage girl belonging to the Yazidi religious sect because she fell in love with a Muslim man has led to a spiral of violence in northern Iraq in which 23 elderly factory workers have been shot dead and 800 Yazidi students forced to flee their university in Mosul"

    ^ Wow that's actually really sad. A huge part of me wants to write a play based off of it because I think it would make great publicity for what's going on. It's like the perfect story to start a play on to raise awareness.

    ^ Ah that makes MUCH more sense than a random video. I knew it had to be more than just 'she fell in love'. She also changed religions!

    The title of the OP saying it was an Iraqi teen really confused me, as Iraqis tend to be Muslim or Jewish, but she's neither nor Iraqi - though she is from the Middle East
