Honor Killing Video – Du’a Khalil Aswad Stoned to Death in Iraq

The stoning of Du’a Khalil Aswad, teenage girl from Kurdistan, Iraq took place on April 7, 2007. People who stoned Du’a Khalil Aswad to death refer to such stoning as honor killing. As you can see in the video, the most shocking part of honor killing is how ecstatic everyone is about killing a girl. The video was recorded with a cell phone camera so the footage is not the greatest, however you can see the police standing around and doing absolutely nothing while a defenseless 17-year-old girl is being stoned. The onlookers smile like it’s the RC helicopter demo they’re watching. But most of all – the executioners themselves cheer as life of Du’a Khalil Aswad is ended with heavy stones dropped on her head. It’s like this honor killing was the highlight of their year. They all got together to watch the spectacle, everyone seems to enjoy it, and not one moves a finger to try to stop this gruesome ritual.
Du’a Khalil Aswad was stoned to death because she fell in love with a boy of a different religion. Her family as well as local religious leaders felt shamed by her behavior and executed this honor killing – to literally do her a favor by ending her life for stumbling off the right path. Some reports say that the reason behind the stoning of Du’a Khalil Aswad was her conversion to Islam from Yazidi faith. However according to locals, her Sunni Muslim boyfriend confirmed that she had never converted to Islam, rather she was stoned because she failed to return home one night.
The stoning took place in the town square of Bashika, in Ninawa Governorate, Iraq. Thousands of attackers reportedly gathered round for the stoning. Du’a Khalil Aswad was being stoned for approximately 30 minutes, during which she was taunted by the crowd. As can be seen in the video, attackers are kicking her while she’s lying in the dirt, while several people try to get their best cell phone shots of her. With her face full of blood, she attempts to sit up and call for help, but countless kicks keep coming from every direction and large chunks of stone are being thrown at her head. Then a big concrete block is dropped on her head and Du’a Khalil Aswad no longer moves. When the block is dropped the second time, her skull gets obviously crushed as can be guessed by large amount of blood that starts gushing from her head.
One would think the honor killing would end at this moment, but this wasn’t the end for Du’a Khalil Aswad. After she was stoned to death, her body was tied to a car and dragged through the streets of Bashika. She was the allegedly buries along with the dead dog to show that she was worthless. Medico-Legal Institute in Mosul exhumed her body at a later date to test whether Du’a Khalil Aswad was still a virgin. Autopsy performed revealed that Du’a Khalil Aswad in fact died a virgin. The worst part for me is the fact that people who stoned her to death probably think to this day that this honor killing was the right thing that helped save her soul.
Honor killing video depicting stoning and death of Du’a Khalil Aswad is below. Warning – video is graphic and upsetting. Some may find it offensive as it shows death of a 17 year old girl being killed by a large block of concrete being dropped on her head. Don’t watch if you are easily offended:
Thanks Brian!

More people have been killed in the name of God than anything else, and most of those people have been killed because they believe in the wrong God. Religion can be therapeutic, but once it’s on an extremism level, it becomes dangerous.
Typical not-whites.
Lets fight them till the death!
o,shit.
let’s respect her death by making sure there will be nomore such a thing in the future…LONG LIVE HUMAN RIGHTS
Poor girl
fuck is wrong with people
religon is the most fucked up thing ever, that just prooves there is no god.
Religion is not the problem here idiot, its the people abusing the religion.
Religion is a load of bs, do u really think there is a god if stuff like this is happening? How about the fact that nothing happens to the people who stoned the girl? I have seen too much shit to believe in a holy god.
WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE
Wyjebać wszystkich muzumańskich brudasów z Europy!
Zajebac skurwieli
ciapatusy jebane, od dzis macie w pizdeczke a u mnie na dzielnicy mieszka was troszke ooooo jutro kurwa zacznei sie kakretna przekopka.
kill them all fckn dirty muslim. yep a lot of Muslim live in my city, i will kick those dirty ass evryday.
I know that these kind of cultures raise people to believe that this is justice, but how can human nature not intervene, and tug at these people’s souls when they see this poor girl, whose only crime was falling in love, being battered around? What goes through their head when they lean in with phone-cameras with a smile on their face?
The only answer could be is that they are all legally, criminally insane. But surely a whole society can’t be so mentally damaged, can they?
If this is all upbringing, then there is no such thing as insanity. Just different morals and beliefs.
…or maybe we’re all insane.
muslims are really fucked. how somebody can be stoned for falling in love . poor girl
Jestem w szoku !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It does not really matter what we think of this
It will most likely never change
That is just how their culture is
The fact is, everyone deserves to die as much as anyone else does
Fuck the bible its all full of murder and sex
religion IS the problem. what else has ever caused people to act like this? only believing in a malevolent god. no atheist has ever done something like this for the sake of no god. atheism is the true “religion”.
Let me tell you something new, these guys are not muslims. None of the are. They are Yezidi’s.
honor? i cant even watch this whole video the bunch of savages. this girl didnt do anything, and, its a girl the cowards. those backwards fucks wouldnt have lasted ten minutes with me fuck thier stones.
To the person that said it isn’t the religion “you idiot”. How can people abuse something that you claim is not there? You contradicted yourself in a single sentence, so you’re a moron. It’s not the fact that religion is dumb, it’s the fact that they take it to extremes such as stoning or beheading people because of what they suspect is right. I, myself am an atheist, and I don’t believe in ANY of this. The people who do believe in this should, and I don’t oppose them in any way, but they shouldn’t let it get to this kind of escalation.
that’s right…religion is not the problem. it’s only been in the last half century (when oil was first discovered there) that everyone has been fighting for control of the middle east. for almost 4000 years 2-3 religions have been fighting over a rocky plateau of 35 acres surround by useless terrain in all directions and religion is somehow not to blame but rather a few misguided souls who are fucking up world peace for the rest of us. i wonder who mislead these people…could it have been, NO, you don’t think…not religion??? let’s just keep practicing this religion thing and we’re bound to get it right sooner or later.
What the fuck is wrong with these fucking stupid fucks? Fucking fuckers, go fuck your fake religon!!
“WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE”
We all r insanely wrong even if we dont know it !
One Thought hm mby by looking this video?
This video actually made me shed a tear. The enthusiasm for merciless violence shown here made me sick to my stomache. I had to stop the clip half way. And my god… the cellphones… These people are trash. They all deserve the same as what they did to this poor fucking teenage girl. I’m gunna go smoke a cigarette and try to forget ever seeing this -.-
this is fucking sick. that poor young girl only 17 with all those fucking cowards kicking her to death. What the fuck is wrong with those societys? This shit has to stop and it cant be allowed to happen anywhere in the world.
People have to remember that that girl is a real human being only fucking 17 years old. She has a mother and family who love her just as much as anyone else anywhere else in the world loves their familys.
I’m not sure about her family, Super Nova. It’s her family that killed her. They loved her so much they stoned her to death because she dishonored the family.
Atheism has caused the most death of any belief system. In the 20th century, look at the number of deaths just between Stalin and Mao, like 50 million? You’re highly misinformed. Atheism is even worse regarding human life, because it deems no sanctity or divinity of the human soul. You’re clueless. Islam is the second worse, but was corrupted in part by Communist(read atheist) infiltration.
Noel, I don’t see the Atheists here stoning people to death. I don’t see Atheists here beheading someone for disregarding a specific religion. The reason for Atheism is to not be a part of a religion. Calling me clueless over something that is right there is kind of dumb. Show me ONE video on this website that has a beheading caused by an Atheist, and then I’ll shut up, until then, you need to learn your facts. Everyone killed here was killed because of a religion. If an individual is killed because of an Atheist, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve been killed for breaking something in the religion, it just means the murderer is even more of a fucking idiot.
Angie, I didnt fucking see any women in that crowd kicking that young girl, so like I said she has a “MOTHER” and family who love her.
In London they have m uslims out in the streets protesting that this type of shit should happen there, I am furious, those fucking cunts make me sick!!
IS THIS 4 REAL????????I dont believe that human beings can be so stupid to kill helpless 17 years old girl because she fell in love 2 somebody…thats just 2 crazy 4 me!I guess it is good that those US retards invaded Iraq!I hope they killed alot of fuctards like those on video!!
Honor killing
The lot of u are pricks
Stay in your own countries and stay the fuck out of places u dont belong
You should all die
And i hope u fucking do
How stupid and ignorant some of you. The girl was killed by her own people for dating a MUSLIM boy, and accoding to them the girl had converted to Islam. It was not the Muslims that killed him but her own ethnic group with a dirrent religion. In your typical ignorance of what Islam is and in your prjudices against the religion of Islam, you all exposed your stupidity to the world.
Thanks Daniel for your comment. At last someone who actually bothered to read the description and understood it. I thought I was the only one and felt rather awkward to say anything.
For those who still don’t understand – that’s why they call it an “honor killing” – because her family was “restoring her honor” by doing her a service of killing her. It was supposed to be aid for her and the family to redeem her sin of dating someone from a different religion. That’s what honor killing is. It’s done by the family and it’s supposed to save the victim.
Suicidal Zombie, Do you listen to your self? U are condemning these people for killing one of their own whom they believed had shamed their clan, and yet u are praising the U.S who dropped tons na dtons of bombs on innocent Iraqi, killing hundreds and thousands of them. How do you explain your logic?
Daniel i agree with the clan part but the bomb part hasnt happend really you dont hear eny big nuclear missles going off over there too risky kill everyone.
zabić islamskich skurwysynów. Jak można być takim bydlakiem w XXI wieku.
Well that he in the Poland becomes blunt such people at us!
Religion is the way people in power control socity! You can do anything you want to people! And the best part of all you cant be blamed cause god said this shall be!. (oh no you you cant blame me HEE HEE HEE). And I dont care what religious belief yer talkin about they all do it and none more than the USA well kill people by the millions (In God We Trust Inc). I mean look at those people livin in the damm dirt with 2 shirts (2nd ones fer going ta bible study so you can get ur head filled with somebodys bullshit Of course that would be in the name of allah!) and a pair of pants livin in the bakin heat fryin yer brains. I live like a king and so do you compared to those people. All they got is to get them by is religion and someones just gotta tell`em like it is provided that they keep most of what little money u have! So little sis just had to go out and fall in love! Oh the pride! the shame! such dishoner! You SHALL pay litle 1 tell the mind fucks to come get this out to the street and teach her a lesson it`ll givem a way to relive a little tension and blame someone for there lot in life!
this is the reason why we need to incenerate the whole middle east.
she was killed over a stupid religion fuck which one it was fuck these idiotic fuck fuck thier religion, and fuck all religion, more sensless bloodshed over stupid religion over a god that may or may not exist, retards
what did that poor girl do? …guess what…nothing, whats wrong with our world, i hope someone blows us all up so we can restart our planet in a new dimension without any WARS, FIGHTS, NO RELIGION, what starts war(s)? heres a hint…RELIGION…RELIGION is what has our world so fucked up…
I swear we just need to make that whole side of the world a fucking parking lot
One would think the honor killing would end at this moment, but this wasn’t the end for Du’a Khalil Aswad. After she was stoned to death, her body was tied to a car and dragged through the streets of Bashika. She was the allegedly buries along with the dead dog to show that she was worthless. …she also died a virgin wtf??
god bastards….she didnt even do anything wtf
My only consolation is that her executioners will roast in their own hell for this. It is proof positive that Islam is hundreds of years behind the rest of civilisation.It is like Christianity in the dark ages. The early Christians did not have the benefit of a more advanced civilisation to learn from. Muslims do not have the same excuse!!!
why the fuck are we allowing those fucking muslims monkeys to breath our air… we need to nuke the fucking middle east off the face of the earth and we need to do it right fucking now
yezidis are fucked.all these fucked up religions are,muslims etc,aint no god,but us having our say bout this is not going to change the death of this inicent girl…fully and whole heartedly ,for ever live on”human rights”
KILL THOSE PIGS
AL OF THEM
Thats just fucking sick…Just fucking sick…And they want to let the same muslims who kill a defenseless, innocent teen run a country…
Well, I suppose the shithole theyll always live in will have to be punishment enough for now…
kill them all for doing this let God sort them out.
look at those filthy muslims …just speechless….just wanna line them up and put a bullet in every head
NUKE + ALL MUSLIM COUNTRIES = WORLD PEACE
awwwww pOOr babyy .
All these muslims should be sent to poland with an electric fence surrounding it so we can have all the worlds first class CUNTS in the one country. We then could bomb the shithole at our leisure and pleasure!
A polish man (idiot of course) told me, no polish man would ever stone his own sister as he would be left with only the family goat to rape! Sound polish logic if you ask me.
she was not muslim dumbie , if you the read text it says she was a yazidi and her crim was becouse she fell inlove with a muslim boy , and that her parent thought she converted to islam , but they later found out she never converted to islam
Hey Kingz(is your boyfriend queenz?),
you were curious enough to take time to watch what can only be described as a deeply disturbing video and that is your only comment?Get back to learning your English,it’s obvious you need the work!
Two words: Mob Mentality
Such killings in the name of God happen only in the Islamic and Hindu (lesser extent) faiths. Jesus taught to love even enemies. How can parents watch or kill their loved daughter or son just because he / she has slept with a person whom they disapprove. The least they can do is to discard them not kill them. For all have their lives dear to them and life is precious. Human rights activits should voice their concern against these Islamic killings.
Once again…..the fucking Middle East!
Just for those of you who don’t pay shit worth attention and never even heard of this until you saw it here, several weeks after the killing 23 Yazidis were taken from a bus near Mosul by Ansar al Sunnah, lined up and massacred. There is a video of that, actually.
Then on August 14, 2007 four massive truck bombs detonated in Qahtaniya and Jazeera in the deadliest car bomb attack ever by the Islamic State of Iraq, which ultimately resulted in almost 800 Yazidis killed and 1,500+ wounded.
However, Du’a Khalil Aswad was killed in a town called Bashika, so despite all the Yazidis killed in revenge for this “honor killing” (which is total shit) the ones responsible are still alive and well, unfortunately.
those sick goat fuckers need to all be shot.
these fuckers must of all been mohamed or jesus for fuck sake he who is without sin cast the first stone poor girl
the vid is not availible
I can’t find the video anywhere…but I’ve heard enough. Nuke the middle east…not the answer obviously. I’m proud to be from the U.S., but I know my country is far from angelic and innocent. I don’t know what to say…the United Nations is a joke…so how can this ever be prevented?
I cant find the video but regardless I think it is time that there should be a fucking cursade to wipe out these fuckers. Now woman should EVER end up like this.
Fucking Fucks
as my dad always said….fuck earth and fuck well everything…and my best friend said fuck the corporate world biotches!!!!! its a fat jesus by the way…fuckin christians dont know shot…jesus was always fat…watch hangover hahahahahaha fuck u

I always said “getting stoned to death sounded like a good way to go. I just don’t have enough pot.” after seeing this it’s just not funny anymore.
