"Any culture that deems that it is an honor to murder a 14-year-old child because she refuses to be part of a sham marriage to someone old enough to be her grandfather is truly, truly barbaric."

"This 'honor killing' is a form of extremism. It's something outside of religion. This is political. And it's sickness. Society has got to stand up and scream about this. This has nothing to do with religion, nothing to do with poverty. This is common in these Islamist countries."
