          Such is the true story of
          20 year old Yasmine of Jordan,
          betrayed & murdered....
          by her own brother...

          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

          Yasmine of Jordan:

          Yasmine not a flicker, once so bright,
          while a wicked man delights
          in his ill-gained fame.

          So that murderous man is left to breed,
          and a gentle lady leaves no seed.

          The world gets a little dirtier ,
          & we sit & wonder, why?

          Poor Yasmine, little Queen,
          Yours was the precious life.

          sacrificed for the ego of a fiend
          We see him through your eyes

          You live on, forever in life's memory
          as his cruel memory dies.

          Mortal life is short,
          but forever, so long
          So who will be the last to cry?

          Fly to the otherworld without a care
          surely your friends shall see you there
          and no man shall touch a hair of your head..
          again, unless you so decide.

          We'll remember you well, Yasmine,
          Little Queen
          Yours is the precious life.

          A True Story:

          Poor young virgin Yasmine was raped,
          so her brother shot her down
          in cold blood with a gun.

          He said he did it, so no men would
          tease him about his sister
          no longer being a "virgin".
          So he murdered his sister for his inflated ego.
          What kind of pride could such a traitorous man,
          have to begin with?
          So, He only got a couple months in jail
          and now he celebrates her murder
          as if it made him a hero.
          As he plops around selling his dirty juice
          in the streets with his filthy hands.
          A disgusting image of a man,
          encouraging hungry barefoot children
          to follow in his pathetic footsteps.
          Should we pity the people who
          are so low-down
          that a murdering slob
          can become their hero?
          Should we pity the people
          who celebrate this murdering
          slob roaming their streets puffed up
          to set an example,
          as he peddles his juice
          to their little boys
          with his hands soaked
          in the innocent blood of his little sister?
          Just think, they could grow up
          to be just like him?
          Some can do the raping,
          while the others get to kill their sisters,
          and they can be instant heros too?
          And what about the rapist?
          Well, he got away with it too,
          of course....
          Just like her evil brother
          got away with slaughtering her
          in cold blood.

          For in their warped system
          of so called "honour"
          the innocent pay for the sins of the guilty.
          But only if they are female
          & the guilty are male,
          of course.

          She carried the weight of the world
          in her little hands
          and that man with the giant gut
          carried the evil of the world
          in his cold atrophied heart.

          He convinced her she
          would not be harmed
          then trapping her on
          the family living room sofa
          he unloaded his gun into her young
          beautiful body.
          A sweet sister died
          and a devil brother was
          puffed up
          that day.

          Since when was it honourable
          for a big fully armed man to shoot down
          a defenseless unarmed young lady?
          Since when was it honourable to kill
          your own little sister,
          for the misbehavoir
          of another ?

          Since when was a few taunts
          from some sexist jerks
          more important than a human life?

          Since they found out,
          they could get away with murder,
          i guess.

          When these judges send them home
          with a slap on the wrist
          and a pat on the back,
          these judges are condoning
          the murders of these women.
          More than that,
          these men are given rewards
          & incentives to kill females at will.

          One excuse is as good as another for them.
          These men don't even
          make a pretense at remorse.
          All their sins they projected
          onto this darling girl.
          The scapegoat for their raping,
          murderous lusts.

          You should have seen this guy's face,
          the smug looks about it,
          seen the evil in his eyes
          as he said he would do it again.
          & He bragged about it on camera.
          It just goes to show,
          "A demon is proud
          of the things
          he should be ashamed of."
          In his case, it is sure true.

          Well we are not laughing about
          you, Yasmine.
          We will not forget
          what atrocity
          has been done to you.
          We will remember you well, Yasmine.

          This must stop!

          "Let anyone who condones or excuses
          the murder & abuse of women
          be counted as an accessory.
          No Excuses!"
