NEWS AND POLITICS: HONOR KILLING A cartoon from the Jordan Times, August 19, 1999. Translation: The young woman reading the newspaper asks her father: “Oh Dad, I wish you would let me play sports. I promise I won’t wear shorts. Maybe I will become a famous athlete and will win medals and make my country proud.” The father replies: “My dear, you remind me of your cousin Najaw. She was a fast runner. I remember we ran 20 miles before we managed to shoot her.”
