Yet another young Muslim girl – one of the few that we know of among the many such victims – has become the victim of an “honor” killing in the world of Islam.
This time it is 18-year-old Ryan al-Najjar in the Netherlands, murdered by her father Khaled and two brothers Mohammed and Mohaned, for “dating, refusing to wear a hijab and living a Western life.” For bringing this “shame” upon her family – and for wanting to be free – Ryan’s brothers kidnapped her, gagged and bound her, and threw her into a swamp to drown.
Ryan’s father has admitted the murder, but has escaped to Syria. The brothers are now on trial. When taken into custody, they told police that killing their sister was simply “part of their culture.”
Part of their “culture” it surely is – Islamic culture, that is. The Qur’an and Islamic law provide a foundation for honor killing and sanction it – and that is precisely why honor killings are so widespread across the Islamic world.
Robert Spencer is one of the world’s leading experts on Islam’s abuse of woman, and his new book, Holy Hell: Islam’s Abuse of Women and the Infidels Who Enable It, reveals how Islamic theology inspires, enforces and justifies honor killings – as well as the myriad other ways Islam tortures, maims and subjugates women. Everyone should read it.
Anyone who has the courage and integrity to face what Islam truly teaches, understands why 18-year-old Ryan al-Najjar had to die. It’s the same reason why Aqsa Parvez, Amina and Sarah Said, the Shafia sisters, Shaima Alawadi, Noor Almaleki, Shafilea Ahmed, and so many other Muslim women and girls, all of whom cannot unfortunately be listed here, had to be sacrificed on the altar of Islamic ideals.
When reflecting on the horror that Ryan al-Najjar had to endure at the hands of her Muslim family, and how this horror represents the fate and suffering of millions of Muslim women and girls across the Islamic world, one can’t help but wonder: Where are the howls of moral indignation coming from Western feminists on behalf of Ryan and Muslim women in general?
Where are the Women’s Studies Departments across U.S. campuses? Where are the panelists of ABC’s The View? When will Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin speak on this issue? When will they invite Robert Spencer and Anni Cyrus on their show to discuss and explain why Ryan al-Najjar is no longer with us?
This is, of course, nothing new. There has always been a Western feminist silence about the suffering of Muslim women under Islamic gender apartheid. I confront and document this issue in my new forthcoming book, United in Hate: The Left’s Romance with Tyranny, Terror, and Hamas.
This is a leftist phenomenon. The West’s leftist feminists always respond with an apathetic heartlessness and deafening silence to the suffering of Muslim women. Anyone who discerns what the Left really is understands why it is totally logical and expected for leftist feminists to behave in this shameful and inhuman manner.
Indeed, in the world of leftist feminism, it is politically correct and cutting-edge to wail and scream with seething rage about a woman’s right to an abortion, but to actually care for – and come to the defense of – a female victim of an honor killing, acid attack, gang rape, forced marriage or some other heinous crime under Islam is unthinkable.
This is because admitting the true nature of Islam, and the theology and institutions on which it is based, and denouncing it, violates the central code of the “progressive” leftist faith: anti-Westernism and cultural relativism. No culture can be said to be worse than any other – unless it is Western culture, which is always fair game for derision and condemnation. But to criticize any Third-World culture in general – and an adversary culture in particular – is to surrender the political cause and faith.
Western leftist feminists couldn’t care less about real actual breathing women; they care only about their own ideological beliefs and agendas – which are founded upon the goal of destroying their own host capitalist-democratic society.
For leftist feminists, the victims of Islamic gender apartheid can be easily forgotten and dismissed for the sake of their ultimate goal: to aid and abet the West’s totalitarian enemies and to wreak destruction upon their own free societies, which bestow the individual liberties and rights that they despise and abhor.
To actually care for Ryan al-Najjar, and to stand up for her, would necessitate leftist feminists admitting the true nature of Islam, and admitting that it is vicious and barbaric, and inferior to Western Judeo-Christian culture. Admitting such a thing would then lead to admitting that Western culture is better and superior and, therefore (and here comes the kicker) worth defending and protecting. This is simply anathema to the Left, whose entire purpose is, again, to destroy our Western society.
It is crucial to understand that deep down the Left loves the Islamic forced coverings on women. Leftist feminists long for the burqa/niqab — though this longing is subconscious on many levels in many of them and they, at certain stages, want it initially enforced only on other women rather than on themselves.
All of this is connected to why the Left has always had a love affair with unisex/desexualized dress. I have documented the Left’s romance with Maoist unisex clothing in United in Hate, which is linked to the Left’s current romance with forced veiling under Islam, as well as with the Covid mask.
This is the key: forced covering satisfies in leftists their morbid pining for enforced sameness. It is crucial, in their world, to erase physical as well as emotional differences and attractions between people. In the utopian endgame, humans must all be replicas of each other and be completely devoted to the cause, the revolutionary state, and to its all-knowing administering of “equality” and “social justice.”
Thus, leftists adamantly support women’s sexual “self-determination,” for instance, if it enables their war against their own host democratic-capitalist societies — and if it can hurt the Judeo-Christian tradition. But if a totalitarian adversarial society is stifling women’s rights in this context, then leftists vehemently support that oppression, since they worship that particular tyranny in question, and gleefully welcome the threat it poses to their own host society.
Longing to submerge themselves into a totality where even their own choices will be negated, leftists are always drawn to a totalitarian entity within which they can lose themselves. And it is in this twisted paradigm that these lost individuals – who suffer from an immense feeling of alienation – finally feel connected to something. They finally belong.
The leftist enterprise has always been a death wish – a self-loathing suicidal odyssey to shed oneself of one’s own unwanted self and in that process to blur oneself into a collective totalitarian whole. And it is in this despotic hell that they find their purpose, meaning and sense of belonging.
This is ultimately why the Italian cheerleader for Hamas, Vittorio Arrigoni, ended up being murdered at the hands of the Islamic terrorists that he venerated throughout his life. As I have revealed, Vittorio Arrigoni went to Gaza hoping to die. It is the typical narrative of the fellow travelers and political pilgrims that sociologist Paul Hollander has documented.
And so this is why leftist feminists will never shed a tear or utter one word of concern or protest when witnessing 18-year-old Ryan al-Najjar drowning while gagged, with her hands bound behind her back and her ankles taped together, in a swamp.
So don’t ever hold your breath waiting for Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin to discuss why Ryan had to die – and to discuss it honestly with scholars of Islam such as Robert Spencer and Anni Cyrus about all the reasons why.
There is too much hatred, self-hatred and darkness in the heart of the Left for that to ever become a realistic scenario.

They also don’t give a hoot for the babies…infants, even newly born…who are sold to filthy old males for daily rape. Many of those baby girls die soon after. True too of the ones being mutilated to satisfy the lusts of those filthy males.
If they cared anything for the unborn in the U.S., they might give a thought to the underdogs in the world of islime….baby girls, young girls, young women and old….but especially the babies and young ones who want to be *free* of the devils and demons of islime.
All of the ones about whom we know, can list their names, are only a small fraction of the number of victims.

Why would I cry for a moslame? It’s like crying for the SA when they were slaughtered by the SS.

Inside every devout Muslim (and devout leftist), there is a fascist clamoring for power above all else.
Along with critical thinking, women and girls are their favorite victims.

When remembering this young Muslim woman who was so viciously murdered in an Islamic “honor killing, ” it’s likewise best to also remember that a scholar of Islam had exposed the disturbing horrible truth about the anti-female essence of Islam informs the reader that “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islam ideology.” Furthermore, the author also exposed that `” Women is Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” [1]
[1] THEY MUST BE STOPPED by Brigitte Gabriel, pages 171,172.

When remembering Ryan Al Najjar, it should be acknowledged that regarding the evil brutal cruel and murderous Muslim action which they so very inappropriately call “honor killing. It’s unjust , unfair and an affront to real justice and completely outrageous to punish the innocent victim, in any way, let alone by death , who was raped and not the rapist , who is indeed the guilt ,evil and vile criminal.
Related to this subject, many Muslims do claim, at least in lip service, that they respect the Bible. So the Bible in Proverbs 17:15 it reveals “ “The Lord hates two things: punishing the innocent and letting the guilty go free.” [E.R.V]

The Islam cruel cold- blooded murder of Ryan Al Najjar clearly exposes that “Islamic culture “ is not really a genuine valid culture. So, it’s been proven by a number a Muslim, themselves by that very savage cruel, brutal vicious and murderous that it’s not really a genuine “culture, it’s an abomination.
As observed in that malicious and brutal cruel murderous action that is unfittingly called “honor killing” is an affront to all that is actually just, good, humane and right.

The Islamic vicious murder of Ryan Al Najjar is obviously most evil Furthermore,about the topic of Islamic violence which, something, takes the form of the brutal cruel vicious and murderous action that is so inappropriately called “honor killing.” This malicious misogyny is so heinous callous and malice- filled that it’s an affront to all that is good, decent and right. In addition, the author, Brigitte Gabriel in her book which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED on pages 171,172 , that “The shocking reality is that most Muslim men ,including those educated in the West ,have no objection to the degradation of women in their countries .Across the Muslim world, even in moderate Islamic countries, women’s’ rights are almost nonexistent…Women is Islam are considered unclean ,deemed inferior even to dirt.” In this just cited book it explains on page 176 that “Honor killings have also come to the West thanks to the rise of Islamic immigration. “
Indeed, they must be stopped !
Walter Sieruk says
Death inflecting Sharia in Muslim countries is has spread into Western nations with it’s terrible oppressive harmful and murderous outcomes ,on both girls and young women because Sharia upholds the brutal cruel murdering Islamic practice which is very inappropriately called in the Islamic world “honor killing.”
That savage cruel and murderous action of ”honor killing “ is upheld by Sharia About the actual origin of Islamic law [sharia]. It should be made known that the actual origin of Sharia law is revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995. The point is this history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.
There is the above and other references imply that such pagan teachings were incorporated into the religion that Muhammad manufactured and then started.
Thus this further reveals that a lot of ancient paganism is part of the whole religion of Islam.
In other words, ancient paganism makes up much of Islam. Therefore Islam with its Sharia are a hoax .

“Strangled, beaten and enslaved by my in-laws”
“Isolated and alone, Sara says she felt powerless when the husband she was forced to marry in Pakistan became abusive. She was 21.
“He used to light a lighter on my face to scare me, [he said] ‘I will burn you’,” she says.
She says his controlling behaviour got worse when she was brought to the UK, and moved in with his parents in 2022.'”

‘She adds she was told she would be raped or murdered by British people if she ever left the marital home.
Sara says: “In the UK, I was told ‘you can’t go out, if you go out alone, you’ll be raped, don’t go out alone, daytime or evening’.”‘
A Paki bastard warning his wife she’ll be raped in the UK if she dares to leave the house — unreal considering the vast majority of rapists in the UK are Pakis. Takes one to know one I guess.
Walter Sieruk says
“Islamic culture” is not really a genuine culture. As observed in that so very savage cruel, brutal vicious and murderous that it’s not really an actual, genuine, culture but a result of a primitive deadly religion , because of its wicked Islamic practice of “honor killing.”
The terrible term “honor killing” is alone a dishonest term. For there is no honor, at all, it’s a malice -filled murder of a young female. Just giving an evil action a better sounding title doesn’t change the wicked nature of it. It’s like scrapping off the label of that jar of cyanide which reads “Danger Poison” and replacing on that jar another label that reads “ Apple Juice.” That doesn’t change the deadly content in that jar. As it has been wisely said that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”
