Palestinians To Celebrate Valentine’s Day With Special Honor Killings

Already, six teenage and young adult women in the community have been named as suspects for purposes of the observance.

love burns‘Uja Village, February 12 – Residents of this Jordan Valley community are planning a special observance of St. Valentine’s Day this week, in which they will pay tribute to the saint’s legacy of love by murdering female family members accused of romantic liaisons that did not receive approval from the household males.

Village elders have planned the special observance for weeks. While firmly Muslim, ‘Uja residents have adopted some elements of Western or Israeli culture, following prolonged exposure to mores other than their traditional Islam via the media and entertainment. Over the years, the interface between the traditional and the newly discovered has produced an integration of sorts, in which once-foreign practices have found their way into the local way of life in such a way that the traditional order is preserved.

Already, six teenage and young adult women in the community have been named as suspects for purposes of the observance, but their identities will not be divulged until the observance itself. The secrecy is key, explained one elder, to maintain the element of surprise necessary to carry out the murders.

“It won’t do to have these sluts escaping justice by fleeing,” observed Aiwil Qillem, 75. “We do not even speak of the dishonor that will occur if they are allowed to escape. The disgrace that would then fall upon their families could not be expiated. Well, unless they went and slaughtered some Jews. That’s always a sure bet to restore family honor.”

Stabr al-Stabr, 52, who killed his daughter as part of last year’s observance for being seen talking without his authorization to the son of another cucumber farmer, noted that the risks go beyond mere family shame. “If Laila had been allowed to run away before I splashed her face with acid and her brother strangled her, she would now be some harlot, servicing one and all in some Tel Aviv back alley.” He shuddered at the verbalization of those fears, then spat.

“The foreign culture that the usurping Jews brought with them has invaded our wholesome indigenous space,” continued the father of six whose family settled in the area in the 1920’s, from what is now Jordan. “Fortunately, we are able to use some of those foreign ideas, like this Valentine thing, to create a bulwark against further impurity reaching our youth. We need to shield our society from the pernicious influence of Western permissiveness on our impressionable girls by killing those who fall prey to it. By keeping out those filthy notions, we can maintain the purity of our traditions, among them the killing of girls who step out of line.”
