Islamification of Europe

As increasing numbers of Muslims have moved to Europe, many have not adopted Western culture. In fact, they are bringing their culture to Europe. This is most horrifically apparent in the custom of "honor killing", in which men kill daughters or sisters who reject forced marriage, date European men, or cast off their hijabs. This is a recent account:
A Kurdish woman was brutally raped, stamped on and strangled by members of her family and their friends in an "honor killing" carried out at her London home because she had fallen in love with the wrong man.
Here's another example. Europe's lax immigration laws, and inability to assimilate immigrants, allow insular Islamic communities to develop, and young people who want to embrace the culture of their new home are prevented from doing so, often brutally.

Whether Europe will resist the erosion of Western culture by their new guests remains to be seen, but cracking down on honor killing would be a good place to start.
