I will never understand the deepness of such an 'honour' that could be stronger than your love of your child or sibling. I can't even discuss it...

Honer killing not only happen in Turkey, but in other countries also. In England some areas have large asian communities and so called honer killing have occurred here.

nana, this is a terrible story. Parents are there to protect their children.

I read yesterday.. couldn't understand in turkish but by discussion understood what it is all about. I was very stressed by this.. couldn't continue to work for a while. I didn't think it is possible nowdays. I can't discuss it and even find words for expressing what I think.. does it happened in villages or in cities they follow this custom as well? Justice punish parents-killers or not?

Quoting IZMIR060406:  What kind of primitive act is this? And is still goes on? Really? Where in Turkey does this occur?  |
I think you will find this goes on in many countries. There have been some cases in the UK, not necessarily Turkish but with other nationalities where this still happens as part of their culture. You should try and read the book titled Saudi Princess.

 Hmmm, maybe I will TRY and read it, but if it's about this 'killing thing' then I don't want to know !

Uneducated people, brain washed by ancient, out-dated traditions and religious beliefs commit these crimes. It's mind boggling to think stuff like this happens in the 21st century. Just terrible, when will we as human race finally evolve and leave behind STUPID beliefs like these? Tradition and religion only make people go backwards, not forward!!
Erem,
