FBI Removes 'Honor Killing' From Murder Suspect's 'Wanted' Poster

The FBI removed all mention of the controversial term “honor killing” from the wanted poster of a double-murder suspect after FOXNews.com ran a story announcing the use of the term.

Yasser Abdel Said, wanted for the murder of his two daughters, has eluded authorities for almost a year. The bodies of the young women — Sarah Said, 17, and Amina Said, 18 — were discovered in the back of a taxicab in Irving, Texas, on New Year's Day.

According to family members, Said felt he was compelled to kill his daughters because they had disgraced the family by dating non-Muslims and acting too "Western."

The girls’ great aunt, Gail Gartrell, has always called the case an “honor killing.” And for a few days — until last Friday — the FBI publicly agreed.

*snip*

Some Muslims have objected to the term "honor killing" because they say it attaches a religious motive to a crime, which could lead to discrimination against Muslims.

The FBI said Tuesday that it had deleted the term because the FBI never meant to attach a label to the case. Special agent Mark White, media coordinator in the bureau's Dallas office, told FOXNews.com that the FBI changed the wording “because the statement was not meant to indicate that the FBI was ‘labeling’ anything.

 :censored: P.C. police!!!   :banghead:   :argh: :maddernhell:

Oh by the way, he's accused of murdering his two daughters for dating non-Muslims.  Yeah that's the religion of peace.   :banghead:

He killed them for dating non-muslims...but they removed the label so it wouldn't "attach a religious motive to the crime".   Huh???  It WAS a religious motive, morons!

Not in this country.  Religious motives are only mentioned now when Christians are involved.

Usually, there is quite a bit of curiosity when one kills their own family members.

Why not say why?  He was a 12th century Muslim who can't adapt to the modern world.

Of course, of course, we must not say why because it isn't politically correct.

Questions are a burden to others.

Answers are a prison for oneself.
