"There is a very important difference between honor killing and violence against women in the form of domestic violence.
It is plotted, it is premeditated." Mojab said.

"What we need to understand is that the male power and the male desire for the control of the woman's body and the woman's
sexuality -- the honor resides in that sort of understanding and the ownership of women's body and sexuality," he said.
"So when that is being presented in a way that is not acceptable to the social norm, then
the only way the honor can be restored is by purifying that. And the purification is through blood."
Bold mine ... Wow.
