no! honor killings and marginalizing women are not a good thing. these crimes are committed by a small illiterate segment of those particular nations. no sane human being can say that things like honor killings are part of the moral code of this or that nation. there are plenty of americans who generalize and make stements about the rest of the world. but nobody is saying that they have low or high moral values. their moral values are between them and their maker.
