How very very sad.

I also can’t imagine anything that young Saudi could have said on chat that would justify her father murdering her.

I opened your Arabiya link to look for the article and found a second one about a young girl whose Saudi father beat her, then chained her to a door and went to the market, then came back and found her dead:

Kinda makes me think about not reading the news anymore :(

It was basically retardedness crossed with religious humbug.

I read about that cleric who wants to ban Facebook. I say let them try, Saudi youth are infamous for their sometimes unhealthy attraction to the opposite sex, an attraction that has defied antiquated customs and religions over the years, and what this fellow is advocating is literally oil to the fire. Ridiculous!
