The Other End of the Spectrum
by: Schvach Yid
I have never been able to understand the role of psychopathy as an integral component of a religion, let alone as the virtual identity of one; yet, repeated stories in the media about Islam’s apparent penchant for religious mandated killing has led me (and I assume many others) to this conclusion.
Pamela Geller, author and Meisterin of her blog site Atlas Shrugs, has favored her readership with two news reviews on this very subject.
Firstly, a presumed ‘honor’ killing by a Moslem dad, in

Judaism is not entirely guiltless where filicide is concerned. The bit in the Book of Judges about Yiftach’s (Japhet in English) sacrifice of his daughter immediately comes to mind, but this sad event was not doled out as a punishment to the maiden.
Secondly, an interview conducted in 2006 on
What can I say? The guy’s evidently a professional, and his eldest son is warming up in the bullpen.
And the Talmud? ‘A rabbinical court that imposes the death penalty more than once in a fifty year period is a cruel court, and should be disbanded’ (translated quote approximate).
The Jewish State of Israel has carried out a grand total of one execution since the State’s founding in 1948.
Thank Gd for Judaism.

You're kidding here right? What kind of nonsense is this? Show me where Jews are killing their kinderlach. Muslims are doing it every day. Jews would take the gas pipe before they would let harm come to a single hair on their shayna madel's head.
Citing it gives the Jew haters muntion of a non-existent practice in Judaism.
I need more information to assess whether the suburban Dallas murders are dishonor killings.

Pamela:
Your right about Jewish parenthood; filicide is abominable to Jews, however, the fact is that Yiftach, in the Book of Judges, made a pact with HaShem... You undoubtedly are familiar with this piece of Tanach.
How in the world the detractors and
haters of Judaism could possibly pervert this account from the Book of Judges is beyond me.
ERS:
The killings, from what I've read, are presumed to be honor killings, as I stated in my blog.
Please come to shaiya money, we will give you a great surprise.
