Afghan girl beheaded after refusing man’s marriage proposal

There seems to be no end to these sick people.

A 14-year-old Afghan girl was beheaded and killed in an attack by two men, one of whom apparently asked her to marry him.

The attack happened Tuesday, a day before new legislation was introduced in Congress calling on the U.S. government to take steps to help protect Afghan women and girls as the U.S. military prepares to exit Afghanistan.

Gasitina, a student, was beheaded in the Imam Sahib district of Kunduz province. The attack was initially reported by local media, and was confirmed by Amnesty International researcher Horia Mosadiq in an email.

The girl was fetching water when she was accosted, according to reports. The men, who have not been identified, were arrested by police. The girl and her parents had refused a marriage proposal by one of the men, according to the Amnesty International report.

This was the 15th deadly attack on a female victim in Kunduz in 2012, the human rights organization said.

"Amnesty International is very concerned about the violations against women in Afghanistan," said Cristina Finch, director of the organization's Women's Human Rights program.

Amnesty reported a similar incident in October, when a young woman was murdered and her throat slashed. In that case, the woman apparently refused to work as a prostitute.

Although it appears such attacks are increasing in frequency, it may be that the world outside Afghanistan is just beginning to hear about them, Finch said.

"These sick people"????

Pot Kettle Black!

 

This is what a real 'war against women' looks like.

 

The religion of piece.

 

Did you read about the father in Louisianna who beheaded his disabled son? How about the two teen aged girls who were killed in Oakland yesterday... or the bow and arrow murders on campus this morning?

 

Or the honor killing cabbie that shot his two daughters for being too Western? Or, the Muslim TV executive that wanted to educate Americans on the beauty of Islam with a cable tv station who beheaded his wife when she wanted a divorce.....?

 

Are you trying to argue that misogyny is greater problem here in the states, or in the West?

 

First: where is your link? Were you afraid to offer one?

Second: do you really want to compare atrocities between soldiers and cultures?

 

These are the people Americans are fighting and dying for? Anyone who still thinks we can bring them kicking and screaming into the 21st century is an idiot.

 

What in the helll is it with you?? Can you not even acknowledge that killing a 14 year old girl for any reason is a bad thing?

Random killings and parents killing their children are different than islamo authorized killings.

 

I am saying that there is CRIME everywhere. A woman in Colorado was so upset Romney lost that she killed her two toddlers.

 

The religion of pieces.

Was that a Freudian slip?

 

Don't resort to stupidity... This is NOT "Islamo authorized".. The parents rejected the suitor, so he and his friend killed the daughter.. They will get the death penalty in a Muslim country.

 

Oh really?

 

Nothing says "I love and respect you" like a post-rejection beheading.

 

No. She cannot. Margot is one of the most rabid islamapolgists I have ever seen. Her ability to blindly defend the indefensible would be impressive if it weren't sickening.

 

Read the thread... There is NO defense of Islam or murder..

 

"Beam me up Scottie, no intelligent life down here."

Yep.

 

We can hope so.

It's a problem of Islamic culture more than just the religion. The religion can be interpreted any number of ways, same as Christianity is in the west. The problem here is Afghan culture much more than it is Islam.

 

Look how quickly progressives swoop in to deflect attention away from Muslims who behead 14 year old girls. One wonders what they have to gain.

 

Collecting water at a well, Gisa was on her way back to the little village of Kulkul when she was attacked. Her father spoke with authorities and told them that the reason he refused the request of marriage because he felt his daughter was “too young”. In a world where women are still oppressed and forced into arranged marriages at young ages, this father attempted to do the right thing. According to the authorities, the two men will face the consequences of their actions.

Women are raped, beaten and murdered all over the world every day.... including in the US.. Yet some people persist in attributing this criminal behavior to "Islam".

 

The men of afghanistan are willing to fight over their power to dominate their women in any way they want. I'm not willing to fight them. It's up to the women of afghanistan to fend for themselves.

 

heh, yet liberals go ape (*)(*)(*)(*) over a white guy who barely slapped his wife lol.

 

I think the trick to having peace with the muslims is to let them do whatever they want to their women. Peace is in America's interest. The welfare of foreign women is irrelevant. Let it go.
