I CANNOT BUH-LEIVE that this has happened. This is so sad and get’s one’s blood boiling

Saudi woman killed for chatting on Facebook

A young Saudi Arabian woman was murdered by her father for chatting on the social network site Facebook, it has emerged.

The unnamed woman from Riyadh was beaten and shot after she was discovered in the middle of an online conversation with a man, the al-Arabiya website reported.

The case was reported on a Saudi Arabian news site as an example of the “strife” the social networking site is causing in the Islamic nation….

I so much hate these kinda extremists who dont really think about what they are doing and they become blind with hate and pure anger and go do these very stupid actions. They think that what do they is correct and they would be saved by God because of their wrong interpretations of what is said in Qu’ran. There is no difference between this father and those father’s/brother’s/ husband who kill women, because they [the women] supposedly did something and it was against the family honor. If he claims to have killed her because it was a matter of Honor, do NOT be surprised. He deserves to be killed for the honor of his family and how the bloody hell is he still alive?!?! He killed her in August. He should’ve been effing hanged by now!

Was her crime so much that she deserved to be beaten up and then killed by her own father? Did she deserve to die because of this, talking to an unknown man over the internet? Its natural human instinct to do so. Aint humans always compelled to do exactly what they are forbidden to do? I mean just for the thrill of it to see why we are forbidden? but seriously it resulting in death?

Facebook or any other social networking sites for that matter are now a part of life. A lot of the current Generation aka Generation Y use these kinda websites everyday because that is what it is. It’s no surprise that older generation aka Generation X are the ones who have some problem with these social sites and they are not able to comprehend them. Hopefully, one day, when the Gen X will have grown up and will see this as it is and not get overly excited . But hasn’t it become a little dangerous to be up there now? Especially if you happen to live in MENA region

Although Facebook’s Saudi Arabia network has about 150,000 members, it’s estimates on the true number of users vary . Tons of people dont join networks of the Country they live in. But also because extremists send hate mail and report the posts, pictures and related items as Spam and as ‘Hate’ in the groups like those which support the freedom for the Saudi Blogger and women driving among other groups. Because this is the only way we can support and protest since we cant do them on the streets, and blocking these sites wont do any good. because there are tons of other ways to do what someone wants to do. These sites were soo not designed for this kinda horrendous crap.

Many Saudi women use nicknames and post comic images or drawings on their pages instead of photographs. Some Saudi bloggers have dubbed the network “Faceless”.

Now this would be added to the worsening image of the whole Kingdom, when the deed is done by a single maniac. Just like what happened with the Qatif Girl

:Prayers for the victim of the First “Facebook Murder”:

Thanks to Amjad A, for alerting me to this

PS: I wonder what would he have done with her if she was on muslimspace.com
