The Honor Killing of Asiya Z. Hassan

Hassan & wife

I’m a bit slow on this one but it still bears commenting about. Last Thursday Aasiya Z. Hassan, wife of the prominent Muslim businessman Muzzammil Hassan was killed by beheading.

The killer? Good ol’ prominent Muzzammil, of course.

Why? Evidently because she had the temerity to try to divorce this Islamic TV magnate and got a restraining order to keep her safe from the violent SOB.

Was this murder committed in Saudi Arabia? Somalia? Iran? Pakistan? Sounds logical — why not try Buffalo, New York? From the Chesler Chronicals: Beheaded in Buffalo: The Honor Killing of Asiya Z. Hassan

On February 13, 2009, in Orchard Park, a suburb of Buffalo, 44 year-old Muzzamil Hassan, a prominent Muslim businessman was arrested for having be-headed his wife, 37 year-old Aasiya Z. Hassan. Yes, he beheaded her. Aasiya’s crime? She dared to obtain an order of protection which forced her violent husband out of their home.

We are now sadly familiar with some high profile Islamic beheadings of infidels in Muslim lands; Daniel Pearl, Nicholas Berg, immediately come to mind. Sadly, we are also familiar with the practice of beheading, dismembering, burying alive, and stoning Muslim (and sometimes Christian) women to death in Muslim lands. But this took place in a suburb of Buffalo, New York, in America, Land of the Free and Home of the Brave.

She goes on to relate why this “honor” killing in Buffalo is so important.

Muzammil Hassan was an educated, powerful, creative, and living in freedom in the United States. In fact, he may have viewed himself as a spokesman or even role model for other healthy, assimilated, Muslims who also live here.

In 2004, Muzzamil Hassan founded Bridges TV, an English-language Islamic network to combat alleged anti-Muslim bias in the American media. {…}

Hassan considered himself a role model for “healthy, assimilated, Muslims”, and so he slaughtered his wife by hacking off her head, like a farmer would kill a chicken that was doomed to be tonight’s dinner.

Where is the cry of outrage from C.A.I.R.? Where are the calls from the “healthy, assimilated, Muslim” community for Hassan to pay the price for butchering his wife?

[Crickets chirping.]

I’m just sayin’ . . .

[Update]

My buddy Laer at Cheat-Seeking Missiles notes that this story isn’t showing up on “CNN, ABC, CBS – or even the home state paper, the NY Times. (MSNBC does have the story.)” In a related post he addresses the fact that the NY Times has featured a story about a church killing in Tenn. three (3) times but not the beheading of a New York woman by her husband, a media mogul that is trying to shed a better light on Muslims in America. Laer writes:

The Chmielewski theory that the NYT doesn’t bother with local crime stories elsewhere falls apart here, since two killed with a shotgun, even in a church, isn’t as newsworthy as one person killed by beheading, Muslim or not. No, what makes it newsworthy is that Adkisson had a “stated hatred for the liberal movement.” Had a Unitarian shot up a Baptist church because of a “stated hatred of the conservative movement” – newsworthy as that would be on its face – rest assured the NYT wouldn’t have covered it.

The conclusion is irrefutable: The NY Times will take any opportunity it can to discredit conservatives, particularly conservative Christians, and it will avoid any opportunity to paint Muslims in a negative light.

The sad fact is that along with hatred of conservatives, Dhimmitude is alive and runnin’ rampant at the New York Times.
