"We killed them because they brought shame to our community. How could they elope with Hindus? They deserved to die. We have no remorse," Khatun, one of the mothers, was quoted as saying by the Indian Express newspaper after her arrest Friday.
More Religion of peace and tolerance.
No remorse because they deserved to Die!

Two Muslim mothers in a northern Indian town have been arrested on accusations they killed their daughters for dishonoring the family by eloping with Hindu men, police said Sunday.
Newlyweds Zahida, 19, and Husna, 26, were strangled when they returned home after getting married to men of their choice, said Anil Kumar Kusan, a police officer.
Marriages between Hindus and Muslims are not common in India and are frowned upon by both communities, although there are more instances of inter-religious marriages among the educated urban population...
Most victims of such killings are young adults who fall in love or marry against their families' wishes. In some cases, village councils order couples killed who marry outside their caste or religion.
While there are no official figures, an independent study found around 900 people are killed each year in India for defying their elders.

Newsweek Depiction of Obama as Lord Shiva Upsets Some Indian-Americans
Shiva, who is one of three pre-eminent gods in the Hindu religion
along with Brahma and Vishnu, is considered the destroyer of the world
Obamasiah, Destroyer of the United States.
Wow Newsweek you think that obama is a God?
No wonder the U.S. is so screwed up.
Hey Newsweek being President does not make you a God, a Demon yes, a God uh not so much.
Foxnews
Newsweek's depiction of President Obama on its latest cover has irked some Indian Americans who, fresh off Obama's visit to the world's largest democracy, are not happy with the image of the U.S. president as the Hindu deity, Lord Shiva.
The Newsweek cover shows Obama with several arms carrying policy issues while balancing on one leg. The headline reads: "God of All Things" with a subtitle, "Why the Modern Presidency May be too Much for One Person to Handle."
It was not to much for Pres Bush or even Bill Clinton, maybe Obama is just an out of touch Slacker!
Shiva, who is one of three pre-eminent gods in the Hindu religion
along with Brahma and Vishnu, is considered the destroyer of the world, which must end, metaphorically speaking, in order to be reborn as a more universalistic place. However, the god's purpose is not to foretell an apocalyptic ending.
Newsweek, which could not be reached for comment, did not have the image posted on the magazine's website on Sunday.

BBC
Police in the Indian capital, Delhi, say a teenage girl and her boyfriend have been murdered in what they suspect is a gruesome case of "honour killing".
Aisha Saini and Yogesh Kumar, both 19, were beaten with metal rods and then electrocuted, police say. The girl's father and uncle have been arrested.
According to police, the girl's family disapproved of the relationship because Mr Kumar was from another caste.
Cases of suspected "honour killing" are rare in the Indian capital.
Correspondents say the killings - long a taboo subject in India - are now being reported more often. There have been a number of recent cases in the news in regions near Delhi.

Malaysian muslims threaten Hindus over temple
Quran: 009:033
He it is Who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth, that He might cause it to prevail over all religions, though the polytheists may be averse. South Asia Mail
Washington, DC (August 31, 2009) - Global condemnation continued today after a Malaysian Muslim community threatened local Hindus late last week over a proposed Hindu temple relocation. When a proposal to shift the Sri Mariamman Hindu temple to a new area was floated by the government, local residents rushed out of the Shah Alam State Mosque after Friday prayers carrying a severed cow's head. Muslim community leaders threatened bloodshed against Hindus if the temple was built and then threw the cow's head at the door of the building for the state Secretariat while kicking and spitting upon the carcass. Police did not intervene in the protest and have yet to identify any of the leaders of the Muslim mob, a stark contrast from the disruption of any illegal gathering that is held in Malaysia.

The West isn't Alone in Pandering to Angry Muslims
The Indian government of Kashmir decided to transfer land to Hindu shrine in India's only Muslim-majority state. As a result, hundreds of muslims started to protest the land transfer and the government caved in and cancelled the land transfer. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), India's main opposition party, has called for a nation wide strike today to protest. The Christian Science Monitor

Srinagar, India - Jubilant Kashmiris lit bonfires and set off fireworks in the streets on Wednesday to celebrate a rare triumph in their struggle against Indian rule. For nine days, Muslim leaders have staged the biggest protests seen in Jammu and Kashmir since the early 1990s against a government plan to transfer land to a Hindu shrine in India's only Muslim-majority state. Hundreds of people were wounded and at least four killed while protesting. On Tuesday, the government bowed to the pressure and voted to scrap the plan. But while some parts of the state saw rejoicing, the government's decision stoked tensions elsewhere.
In Hindu-majority Jammu, the revocation prompted new rallies, with activists chanting that the government had pandered to Muslims. In the national capital, New Delhi, India's main opposition party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), called for a nationwide strike on July 3. It warned that the government's decision would unleash a tide of Hindu nationalist anger – an indication that the party is likely to agitate over the issue ahead of general elections scheduled to be held in May.Back in Srinagar, separatist leaders anxious to maintain the momentum of recent days said they were preparing for a new round of protests to demand independence – their ultimate goal.
"We will be happy when we are free from India," says Syed Ali Shah Geelani, a hard-line Muslim separatist leader. He indicated that the next cause independence activists would seize upon was the occupation of large swaths of land in Kashmir by the Indian Army.
Mr. Geelani's sentiments are shared by many. Public feeling in the state certainly runs high as 90 percent of the population in Srinagar believes that Kashmir should be independent of either India or Pakistan, according to a poll in an Indian newspaper.

Kashmir's latest controversy came about when the state government – led by the Congress Party that rules at India's center – said that it would transfer 99 acres of land to the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board, which manages a shrine in a cave containing an icicle believed to be an incarnation of the god Shiva. The board was to build huts and toilets for the thousands of Hindu tourists that visit each year.
Independence leaders say the sanctity of the cave is overplayed by Indian politicians and that the plan to build accommodations for pilgrims was in fact a ploy to settle large numbers of Hindus in a Muslim-majority area, thereby altering the area's demographics. Indian officials have dismissed the allegations.
