All over the middle east, women are becoming victims to honor crimes. Rape, acid throwing, stoning, burning, the list goes on and on... Does anybody have it in their hearts to help free these poor women?

Wait, acid throwing? What are you talking about? Where? Honor crimes aren't actually specific to the Middle East, btw, but we do have a huge problem. The troubling bit is that the law is very lenient with people who kill in the name of honor, so authorities are doing almost nothing to curb the high number of honor killings in the Arab world.
