Thanks very much for this posting.
Yup first I’ve heard of this. Not shocked now that I know this is such a peaceful religion. They mean us no harm. sarcasm.
Wouldn’t this problem go away if all muslim men were eliminated from the US?
The biggest surprise here is that the POS offed himself as well. That doesn’t happen very often unless the ROPer is a suicide bomber aiming to kill as many Infidels as possible.
When I first read this story, I posted, ‘angry muzzie father mad at family for going ‘Western’?
Sadly, I was right.
Since the media has been so hush hush about the details surrounding this story, I kind figured it was something along these lines.
muslims are pigs
Not buying it.
This was no more “honor killing” than Jared Loughner.
Pamela Gellar’s credibility just took a nosedive...particularly over his “crazy” restrictions. Every father that doesn’t let his daughter run like a greyhound practices damn near everything mentioned.
What's so awful about the murder is the consistency of it: this isn't one crazy man going after his daughters for his own reasons, but reasons based on religious and cultural ideology shared by others. For every "honor murder" we hear about in the papers, there are at least eight more waiting to happen, from fathers who think exactly the same way this man did.
And yet we get TV shows like "All American Muslim."
Neighbors said Yazdanpanah and his wife, Fatemeh Rahmadi, separated months ago when she moved into the Grapevine apartment where the shooting took place.
The couple’s oldest daughter — 19-year-old Nona Yazdanpanah — was a Tarrant County College student who had just graduated from Colleyville Heritage High School along with her best friend, Allison Baum.
“It was just family issues, just typical family issues,” Baum said. “The mom and dad didn’t get along. The dad was never violent, never did anything to hurt them. He loved his kids and he was a good dad.”
At Coldwater Creek Spa in Southlake, employees told News 8 Fatemeh Rahmadi had not shown up for work, causing alarm, because she had never once been late in the four years she worked there. They feared the worst.

The Colleyville home where Aziz Yazdanpanah lived had been foreclosed on more than a year ago.
Just saw you mention this on the TX board. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm..
Yep, this is just the kind of people we want to encourage to emigrate here.
If they were muslims why where they opening Christmas presents?
Isn’t being a Mooselimb grand?
Enough with all LEGAL immigration for 20 years. We are letting in too many people who don’t share our culture.
Zarei owned a popular Dallas, Texas, ranch and was well known in the Iranian-American community, according to WFAA. On Christmas Eve, the family hosted a party at the ranch. The gunman was not invited.
Nasrin Rahmaty had been separated from her husband since March, according to ABC affiliate WFAA. Rahmaty and her two children moved into the Grapevine, Texas, apartment where they were murdered, while Yazdanpanah reportedly remained in the family’s Colleyville, Texas, home, which had been foreclosed on last year, WFAA reported.
Yazdanpanah had been having financial troubles after his real estate business slowed down and had reportedly filed for bankruptcy.
“I swear i never had a good feeling about him when i met him,” Katherine-Anne Coronado, who said she was longtime friends with Nona Yazdanpanah, wrote about her friend’s father on a Facebook memorial page.
Another family friend, Sedi Toumani, agreed.
“During the years, we sensed things, but not to the point he would take his own children’s lives,” Toumani told WFAA.

I agree 100% on the principles, although I'm sure I differ on the details:
“Certain age”: I've told her 30, but she's 16 now and I'll probably let her go to the prom this year if it's well-chapperoned by someone with the same last name as her. (If your last name is Smith, you might want to reword that rule if you decide to borrow it.)
“Race”: Human. (from one blood He made all the nations)
“Religion” - The true religion of peace - “Therefore having been justified by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ...” (Romans 5:1)
House foreclosed on
Property records show that a bank had foreclosed on Aziz Yazdanpanah’s Colleyville house in the 5400 block of Sycamore Court in 2010, but he was still living there, neighbors said.
Baum recalled Nona Yazdanpanah complaining about her parents fighting before they separated.
“I knew they were separated. I knew things were rough, but I never thought anything drastic would happen,” Baum said.
Baum said the separation was very difficult on the family’s father.
Baum said the family was Muslim but celebrated Christmas as a cultural holiday. The parents were originally from Iran.
This doesn’t have any of the marks of an ‘honor killing’ other than the perp was apparently a Muslim male. The name is Iranian.
Do we know for sure the family was Muslim? They were celebrating Christmas, with a tree, and gifts and wrapping all found at the massacre site. Not only was the daughter killed as is the norm for ‘honor killings, but everyone in the apartment, including the perp.
Whatever is being said now on the memorial Facebook site, yesterday the daughter’s best friend was quoted talking about how the dad was such a great guy. Lots of quotes about him being a ‘good guy’ and that those who knew him were shocked. Too many conflicting stories on this for any to have credibility yet.
