a "honour" killing being carried out by Kurds living in the UK , if these folks can't or are unable to adjust to 'western' standards what chance is there for the folks (Kurds and other Iraqis) still living in their tribal homelands adjusting to democratic principles of Govt.

I may get some slagging , but I'm begining more and more to come to the realization that Democratic principles and ideals can only be understood and comprehended by peoples with Northern European/North American non-secratarian traditions (includes, Australia and New Zealand) .
i aint gonna slag you steeljack but i'm not too sure they dont comprehend democratic ways of life, not all i might add, but some comprehend and have NO WISH to comply is my honest opinion,those people want US to comply with theirs to a degree.
