Hi, My name is Mohammad Alazraq, and I’m from Jordan, I was appointed by Mideast Youth’s management to be the director and editor of the No Honour campaign.

Even though my appointment happened shortly after the website had been ready… I couldn’t contribute to it due to my job restraints. I apologise deeply for my shortcoming in that regards, particularly from the management of Mideast Youth who put their trust in me to effectively run and manage this very important campaign, and I promise to dedicate as much time as possible for this campaign to succeed in its honourable mission.

I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the campaign so far, and especially the person who posted the interview with Rana Hussieni , as I was planning to interview her for my first article, but couldn’t allocate sufficient time for it unfortunately.

Anyhow, For my first article, I’ve decided to bring up a case of honour killing that took place in northern Iraq, where an innocent 16-year old Kurdish girl was slaughtered in cold blood by her family , merely because she fell in love with a person who followed a different religion than hers, she was Yazidi and the boy was Muslim.

The case was discussed on Aljazeera International in a show dedicated to women’s issues called Everywoman, that particular episode was posted on You Tube.

I really cannot begin to comprehend how people could kill their own flesh and blood just to satisfy stupid tribal traditions and worse , even worse they dump it on religion!!
