        Need to stop calling it an 'honour killing'. Nothing honourable about plain old murder.

        @MAFTC @BBCNews I prefer the phrase patriarchal murder - not mine I should add, but adds context without losing the truth.

        There are no adequate adjectives in any language to describe the wrongness of such man-made horror.

        So, just to be clear, they didn't think it 'dishonourable' to rape & murder an innocent woman?

        She "died"?? How about calling it what it was: she was *murdered*. It's not for her honor. It's *murder*, plain and simple.
