I don't believe that there's anything in Sharia that says that murder or honour killings are ok or justifiable.
Where there's a problem with Sharia law is with its treatment of the credibility of woman and their vale in society.
In a lot of ways its at odds with the overall interpretation of Woman's roles in Islam where they were given much higher standings then for example the ancient interpretations of Christianity before the liberalization of its treatment of woman.
And I don't want to get into an argument with you Jet's for Life, but your examples are exactly that fanatics creating their own interpretation of their religion. In the case of Islam, a lot of the radical beliefs such as the mis-interpretation of Jihad, the Burka, the use of suicide bombers and the slaughter came mostly out of tribal re-interpretations in Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and other Pan-African areas where they literally bent the words of Mohammed to suit their political and territorial ambitions.
