radmax: thoughtcriminal: ‘Shaming’ her in-laws costs 19 year old her nose, ears“It felt like there was cold water in my nose, I opened my eyes and I couldn’t even see because of all the blood,” she remembers.It was an act of Taliban justice for the crime of shaming her husband’s family.Say it again with me: “Religion of Peace.” fishbowl-soul: this is a terribly cruel act. however, just because some people of a certain religion are not ‘peaceful’ doesn’t mean they are ALL like that. I am friends with a lot of people who are Islamic and they are some of the most respectful, gentle and generous people I know. (via thesilentdove) Also this isn’t an Islamic crime: it is a crime of traditionalism, and the culture of the Taliban, which is extremist and NOT a good example of Islamic culture. Sorry. I understand how easy it is to equate ‘Taliban’ with ‘Normal, everyday Islam’.
