Dear Middle East - Evolve Already

[Dominic]

From the 'we are still dragging our knuckles along the floor centre for Neanderthals in the Middle East... comes this:

Mobile phone videos have appeared on the internet showing an Iraqi mob stoning and kicking to death 17-year-old girl after she offended her minority community by eloping with a Muslim man. Doaa Khalil Aswad was a member of northern Iraq's Yazidi minority and, according to reports in the Kurdish media, she was murdered last month by her own family after she fell in love with a Muslim.
In the video, Aswad is shown lying on a road as men kick her and throw a large lump of rock or concrete at her head. Her face is drenched in blood.
Uniformed and armed Iraqi police stand by as a crowd storms her home and do nothing to prevent the attack.

Honour killing.... when will people who do honour killing evolve into a modern race? For ****s sake?

I thought the Kurds were credible and respectable in terms of their path after Saddam. Now an honour killing for romance with a Muslim?

EVOLVE! For ****s sake!

Is everyone in the middle east that socially disabled?

EVOLVE! For ****s sake!

If these idiots didn't have oil - AHHH!!!! The world could ignore them.

The oil profits prop up an old fashioned out of date ruling upper class that stunts normal social and economic development.
